I am extremely sorry about this. Here are my reasons why I'm freezing this system for a while:

  • I let commissions pile up and I got overwhelmed. I need to completely clear this list so I can focus on comics and regular commissions.
     
  • I'm displeased with it taking me so long to get to people who pledged months ago, to the point where by the time I finish their commission, they have another one ready to go. It's starting to become a chore.
  • I'm actually not making any more money now than I did when I didn't have this Patreon commission system in place. This is because time I could spend on paid commissions is spent working on a bunch of Patreon commissions. That's a problem.

I'm going to consider what I should do going forward. I'm thinking that I should shift Patreon commissions to the $20 tier so I don't get overloaded while still making a decent profit from Patreon

If you wish to abandon your patronage because of this, I totally understand. If you have months of patronage built up towards a Patreon commission and haven't redeemed it yet, I'll find a way to compensate you. I'm open to ideas on how to go about that.

I was really looking forward to getting a Patreon commission done. I'll still be supporting you though. Would lower my pledge, but Patreon straight up will not let me.

I for one love your art, Marik. So I am willing to wait for you to take the time you need to catch up. So no worries and do what you need to do.

So, you are going to take a break for four months? If not, how long?

You need to take care of yourself first, else nothing else gets done anyway. And Patreon needs to be a money-maker for you, otherwise it loses a lot of its value to you. I'm not in a "commissioner" tier, but I fully support whatever it takes to make your Patreon support you rather than the other way around.

You'll still have my patronage either way. I hope you can keep making good work and that you'll be able to find a way around this in the future. So, get some rest and have a good rest of the day!

Take some time to relax and enjoy working on your art. We’re still going to support you no matter what, my guy.
