Hey Penjo~ good to be back! I am relieved that you weren't offended by the way I approach OCD since it's a really horrible disorder for those who have been clinically diagnosed.

I arrived here through Jazza but stayed for Zedabyu. I like the way you narrate your videos because it’s very personal, feels real without taking yourself too seriously and I find that very refreshing and makes you feel like a real human being friend we’re just hanging out with while you’re sanding and painting into eternity. I actually don’t even watch any other toys customization or sculpting content - it’s just this channel’s personality that keeps me here 🙃. Hence that I’m not very picky on what franchise you choose to work on next. To me watching a Zedabyu video is like watching a story arc each video to see what you want to achieve and how, what is then of course going to go wrong because something will, and how you overcame the hardships to an epic end result anyway - or failure! Both are fine as a way of entertainment 🙃.

I think you need to rethink your patreon tiers dude, 12 bucks lowest level is steep. You'll have people who dip in and out to get specific stl's and your revenue will be inconsistent.

I bet there is a good amount of extra consistent support you would gather that way.

I think I found you through jazza, loved the sculpting, stayed for the personality and yes, love the toy story but also recognise that 1) there's not many of the OG characters left to do and 2) you're allowed to try new things. Pokémon was my childhood (and adult) love so ALL for that! I wish I had the £££ to support on patreon but having just launched my own business, it's not to be. Other ideas.. other gaming franchises (tomb raider, horizon zero dawn/forbidden west, far cry, assassins creed, guild wars (1+2), league of legends, ori and the will of the whisps... the list goes on) or just do whatever you want to do and I'm sure your audience will grow regardless. As much as I love pokemon I do wonder if the market/platform/internet is over saturated with pokemon fan art at this point and worry that focusing too much on one franchise will 1) burn you out like with toy story and 2) struggle to gain the traction you're looking for but I'm willing to be proven wrong! good luck in the future, I'll be watching and waiting to see what happens! No worries about the break; we all need them, we all need time away from our chosen profession - in traditional jobs, that's what holidays are for and I think with YT/content creators 'we' as a community seem to have forgotten that holidays are required (not just by law) to recharge, rest up and refocus our energy. Being on YT doesn't change that. Taking breaks is important for your mental health and physical wellbeing, there's no need to apologise for that. Congrats on the 100k! Here's to 200k!
