Regarding Hiatus and Future Plans...

Instructions

NOTE: If I sent you this project directly, you are probably a MAP host or other project host that I agreed to take part in. If you're in a rush, in the "Notes and Credits" is a full list of the projects that I am withdrawing from whether I have started them or not. I apologize if this is an inconvenience to your timing and I hope that I can be easily replaceable. ___________________________________________ So first of all... I just want to say thank you all. You guys have been EXTREMELY supportive during my SCRATCH journey and I can't believe the amount of progress I have gotten using this platform. I have been able to meet so many cool people and take a part in so many amazing projects! And if you're already freaking out, don't worry! I'm not leaving SCRATCH (at least not yet lol). You see there is a problem that I do have regarding my time commitment and my current projects here on this platform. There are a few things but I'll put them in bullet points so it's easier to understand. - Usually in earlier animations. I had no trouble cranking out over 20ish panels up late at night. Little did I realize that is extremely bad for my health, as I wouldn't take breaks. - As someone who is constantly trying to keep up with the art world I mistakingly join too many projects in the first place. I know this is kind of a rookie mistake but it's still something I struggle with personally. - I am currently trying to balance art like and real life at the moment so I've been here less and less... On top of all that I also struggle with consistency in my art. If you look at some of my more recent projects you'll see that It probably has some of the best art I've ever posted...and it honestly terrifies me. Seeing so many messages on those projects it brings a different type of pressure to the table. One where I am afriad to continue a project just beacuase it won’t look at good as the previous. I'll spend hours just trying to perfect a small "error" just to scrap it and avoid it all together. With this being said, I apoligize again because I am deciding to take an official hiatus. I don't know when I can come back but I need to find a balance in my life before I start again. On a positive note, I hit 400! :D When I come back, I hope I can release a special project featuring this. But for now...I'm taking a break.... recharging and getting more familiar with myself. See you soon :) - SL
