Hello, friends!

Earlier, I mentioned that I’d be on vacation from September 20th to 27th. Well, that’s not happening. I haven't managed to sort out the work I took on earlier, so my vacation is canceled. But it’s no big deal – I’ll still get a chance later (maybe in winter) 🫠

Because of this, I won’t be increasing the number of slots in the tiers, which I previously reduced by half. To give you some context, there used to be 45 slots in the Prime Plus tier and 25 in Mega Prime. I miscalculated my capacity, and I’m still working on commissions that were ordered two weeks ago (I’ve never taken this long before and usually completed them faster). I’ve noticed I’m starting to burn out because I’ve been working 14-16 hours a day. So for now, things will remain as they are. I apologize to those who also wanted to order commissions 😢

I’ll also take some time to improve the content since there are some sets I’m not entirely happy with. By the way, I spent around 18 hours in total working on Violet (and I’ve improved her a bit in subsequent sets, not counting today’s – now I finally like how she turned out).

I’d also like to take this opportunity to mention that I’ve created an Amazon wishlist, which will help me create content faster and of higher quality (and I’ll be able to make sets in 2k or even 4k). It’s all pretty expensive, and over time I’ll buy it myself, but if you’d like to help me out with it now, I’d be incredibly grateful 😊

Here’s the link to the wishlist, in case anyone’s interested 😉

With respect to you, my dear subscribers, EugenerikAI!

P.S. Patreon has finally deleted the scam accounts pretending to be me, so now I’m having a beer. Cheers! 🍻

Oh no!! I don't want to tell you what to do, but work/life balance is important and I think you should take the vacation anyway. You do great work (the effort you put into the sets really does show compared to other creators), are very receptive + responsive to the community, and are just plain patient with all of us. Actually though: you rock! We all (at least I hope all of us feel this way) understand taking breaks away from your work. It's healthy for you, and you shouldn't neglect yourself. Especially, when you tell us well in advance that you'll be gone, we aren't going to mind if the commissions during this time take much longer to complete. Yay on the spam accounts + beer though; wishing you the best!

Yes, in general, I didn’t push myself as hard as I am now, when I took on twice as many commissions (mainly because of the new graphics card), but I overestimated my capacity. I’ll take a vacation a bit later. I just can’t stop working – I think it’s some kind of ADHD because I can’t relax when I’m resting and constantly feel anxious. Over time, I’ll figure this out, as I really enjoy working – I love focusing on things, but it needs to be balanced. It seems like I’ve just figured that part out now 😅

Yeah, 70 commissions + 30 regular images per month definitely seems a lot, even for something you love... Scaling back a bit is probably good regardless! (But you know your limits better than anyone else - or at least you are now figuring them out) Good luck and I hope you're able to relax soon!

Евгений

Thank you very much! Now I already know my limits - it was an interesting experience. I will do everything at my own pace 😉

Yes, you need to take time for yourself to make sure you don't get burned out. You are probably one of the most prolific posters ever on Patreon. Many artists might post 10 images a month. Some might post 1-2 per day. You post 100-200 per day! That is awesome for us, but it should not come at the expense of your happiness or health. Even if you want to keep working, just make sure to take time to make some balance in your life. I hope you keep making all of this amazing art for a long time, but if you get tired or sick then that's not good for anyone. Stay happy and healthy! :-)

Евгений

Thank you! When I reduced the number of commissions, I got back on track, so I will continue to delight you with content, as before 😉

It's tough when your vacation plans are cancelled. Please get some rest soon. And never overwork yourself.

As much as I enjoy your work, getting time away from working is important. I hope you can take some time off soon. Don't forget the staycation is always an option if you're not able to travel or just don't feel like traveling.
