Updates regarding plans for March and the comic's status
🕑 Added 2021-02-25 20:39:05 +0000 UTCTLDR // SUMMARY:
- the comic will be ready in march (4 pages left to finish).
- i'm burnt out from painting the comic, but i'll finish it nonetheless.
- i'll change the patreon tiers from 10$ to 5$ and from 5$ to 1$ (and reorganize stuff into tags and folders) and turn the focus of the patreon from the comic to a regular rewards focused patreon page.
- if you're not interested in the above but still want to see the end of the story, you can wait until public release.
- a lot of thank yous and appreciation for your decision to accompany me through this journey.
hey! i've been waiting for a while to clear some stuff out before march arrives for you guys.
we all know that we're only 4 pages away from finishing the comic. i truly TRULY appreciate all of your support, from the bottom of my heart. last year was a struggle for all of us and, through this idea and your help, i managed to survive the rest of it. i don't like delving in personal struggles so for now all i can do is say thank you, i'm very grateful. <3
so... i am not sure if i made it clear beforehand, i think i did many times on my twitter, but i'm planning on making the comic public at some point after i had finished it. i hate permanent paywalling, so i don't want to keep this away from those who can't afford it, thus changing the concept of this patreon entirely.
i could simply erase it or forget about it entirely, but there seem to be people who want to keep supporting me one way or another.
i hate "playing the victim card" and giving excuses for things i didn't manage to come up with but... many people, way more than i would like to admit, have told me that i'm burnt out from drawing so often. yes, i can force myself to draw and stay motivated, that's one of my great strengths, but everyone reaches a limit at some point. this time around, pages 31 and 32 were the limit. I am still going to finish them, but my adhd and the burnt out feeling are making it very difficult for me to release them in time. posting 2-3 pages weekly wasn't for granted haha
if you still want to see the end of the story but can't afford to keep supporting me, that's alright, you'll see it anyways, so don't feel bad for unsuscribing if you no longer wish to stay on a tier. i am honest to my work and i don't want to scam people at all.
for those who plan to stay: at the beggining of march i will be erasing the 10$ tier and downgrade it to 5$. I will be creating a 1$ tier in order to replace the lowest tier. during next month, my patreon's focus will no longer be hide on bush and it'll turn into a regular artist patreon. i don't promise to come up with anything ground breaking during march and maybe april though but i have some stuff planned as rewards (such as sketch requests, gif process of public artworks, polls and stuff).
i would love to work on a second big project such as this one but it'll be later on, when i've recovered fully from the burnout, practiced a little more and come up with a good concept idea. can't promise anything though but i'll update you if that's the case.
i swear i've put a lot of my dedication onto this and i can't wait to see it completed. it has costed a lot, but it has been soooo worth it. i've been incredibly hard on myself, but if you only do what you already can do, then you will not achieve anything. i'm proud of myself.
additionally, i'll leave a post with all the textless pages for those interested in translating it (if there is any).
again, thank you so much for your patience, your support and all the help you've given me. this could have never been made without it! during the public release, i'll leave an important message in the end explaining the real reasons behind the production of the comic, so stay tuned haha
