RE: 50/100 Tier + Mood
🕑 Added 2020-09-28 06:44:17 +0000 UTCHey everyone, I'm currently not in the best mental state right now. A lot of stress both online and offline. I've been getting nonstop stress headaches. Also I may be approaching burn out.
So for the time being I've closed my 50 Tier and 100 Tier (this won't affect existing patrons of the tier). Additionally, there is a chance I won't be able to do everyone's art request for the month of October, November and December for these tiers. Although I've managed before to do everyone's picture each month, my headspace is not where it needs to be right now.
To those who are part of the tier, if the possibility your request might not be done is an issue, please feel free to downgrade or withdraw support. I am super grateful for what you have done so far. Thank you.
However, there is a possibility things will clear up in October and things go back to normal, but who knows.
Edit: Forgot to include October. For some reason, I thought next month was November lol

I tried to do that, I don't enjoy playing games as I used to. And sometimes I find reading a manga a chore since its not too far removed from my work.
Rtenzo
πβ¨ Thanks Wendy. I'll try to relax and not let me health deteriorate lol
Rtenzo
Thank you as always Adam. I'm still gonna do work, just a little less lol
Rtenzo
Just dialing it back on my patreon work for a bit. I don't need a full break yet. Just a bit less to do so I have more personal time to relax and recover
Rtenzo
Thank you tonyπβ¨
Rtenzo
I wanna take a break but I'm not quite there yet. I feel like I can go for a bit longer before needing a break. I remember I took a month off a year or two back and that was nice.
Rtenzo
lol Thank you. I'm not taking a break per say, just kinda scaling back and doing a bit less to give myself more time to rest/recover mentally and physically
Rtenzo
Thank you silver, I always appreciate your thoughts
Rtenzo
You are absolutely correct lol

The amount of patrons you received and continue getting definitely means your hard work is paying off. But the side effects that come with it I guess means there is a likely increase in 50/100 tier patrons as well and there is only so much you can do to help satisfy everyone's gratitude. Example: Rtenzo: Ohh I have received like 12 50 or 100 tier patreon users I need to help them have access to their full tier benefits. 1 year passes. Rtenzo: Yikes now I have 20 50 or 100 tier patreons........Basically that begins to cause a domino effect later down the line. There is only so much you can do because you are human after all like the rest of us.

Well take the time you need from work :3 everyone has a limit and when that limit is breach, all hell breaks loose!!! and that is not a good feeling. I say take the time off :D Im patient I can wait :3 Get well and enjoy your free time :D
AG
you've gone a lot longer with a lot more consistent releases w/ no breaks than any artist i've followed. Take the time ya need.
Rones
You need a break, you just seem too pump out work and that's gotta take a toll on you. We can wait till you get better.
Tony Gonzalez
Get better soon bro! Your art is top tier youβre the best!
rcllfv
You deserve a break, take as much time as you need and you'll bounce back for sure πͺ
GoldNinja
Sorry to hear that Rtenzo. You definitely should take some time off for your health. You totally deserve it for all the amazing content you put out.
Wendy
You work pretty hard tenzy, I think a well deserved break is just what you need. Stay safe and relax please
James
Go ahead and take a break man. Just sit back and read or watch something you know you enjoy and just unwind.
Rtenzo
Hoping I recover fast
Rtenzo
β€ Thanks Azzlover! I hope I've made people happy with my art.
Rtenzo
Thanks for understanding TP πππ

I get the struggle of burn out. Don't do something you enjoy so much that you end up hating it. Take whatever time off you need because you've been putting in the work for us nonstop. You deserve a break π
kringles31
shit happens. burn out is not something to take lightly, I'm glad you chose your health over work. hope the time off serves you well. ( ' - ' )b
Azzlover
Don't worry about the requests and just focus on getting better! I can safely assume that everyone here loves your work so we would hate it if you got burned out or couldn't continue. We'll keep supporting you so just take as much time as you need :)
Rtenzo
I'll take you up on that sometime lol
Rtenzo
Thanks Myku, I really appreciate it

You've been working hard for a long time; it's honestly a bit surprising that you haven't had problems like this before. And of course this year hasn't helped anyone's mental state or stress levels. As others have said, take as much time as you need. I would much rather you take a break, however long that is, then suffer more and burn out completely. Take care of yourself, and please don't hesitate to ask for help if you need it.
Myku Nailenne
Take as much time as you need man
Rtenzo
I have the answer now, I'm gonna scale back until I feel better
Rtenzo
πβ¨ As always youre too kind Truth
Rtenzo
Thanks Zombie, appreciate the thoughts
Rtenzo
Yea, those are being worked on. I'm referring to new requests
Truth313
Your health is your main priority We can wait for the reqs
Animeplayer
Oh man a burn out. Yeah, your indeed suffering and it's best to deliver what you have on your plate and recover till you have your answer.
zombiemonkey6969
It's alright! Just take all the time you need and please take care of yourself! β€βΊβ€
