Update on Commissions and Comic (Patreon)

Tl;dr: Due to being overworked, last commissions for the year will open next month for a few days. When exactly those days will be and when next year they'll re-open is yet to be determined. Meanwhile will still work on Patreon Rewards and the Comic will go on for more pages than originally anticipated. 

Longer Explanation

Again firstly, thank you all so much for all the support and interest you've all shown and given me throughout everything.

It's always such a great and rewarding feeling when a commissioner shares their happiness after a job done.

That being said, am also sad to say that a long break from commissions is now needed. Even with only halloween commissions, together with the comic almost every waking hour this month was spent working.  I've worked many times through burn-out, but I need to accept it's just not feasible anymore. Patreon Rewards alone every month is around 16-18 character illustrations.

The comic has provided a really great change of pace, where I can work within a certain medium and my brain doesn't have to always switch to thinking of a new design and or style and I get to work with way different poses that I'd never get to otherwise.

The idea was to max make it 20 pages for this month and be done. Seeing how next month's rewards are already coming up that's also not possible. But got talking with the main sponsor for the comic, and they agreed to support for an extra month to reach to comic tier, in exchange the comic might run up to 30 pages.

This is nice for me, as I can explorer each character's growth and not having to rush and overfill each page with 13 panels. I'd like to really take the time for each page and give the comic the attention it deserves.

That leads to the commissions. It's hard to change things when a routine has gone on for so long, but for my own health it's important to be done.

I will find two days next month where I will be accepting last commissions for the years and work on them throughout how ever long it takes. When the commissions will be back, I can not say. Maybe February, maybe later maybe earlier. It really depends on where we are at the time. But until then I'll work on patreon rewards and the comic. So I'll be plenty busy. 

Thank you all once again for sticking around.
