Let's Begin

I'm going back to work in February, and I'm 100% sure about it now. But I'm not sure how it will go—I’ll try to post as much content as I can, hoping that I’ll improve. I can't take another break, even if I fail. I just hope I never fall back into the state I've been in for the past four months.

Therapy Is Working!

I'm slowly getting back on my feet and starting to fulfill its tasks. Unfortunately, I won't be able to return to work in January as it would be too much for me—this is based on my therapist's advice. My current goal is to return in February with a limited work schedule. I hope I can make it!

Merry Christmas 2024

Or happy holidays, whatever you prefer. Sorry if it’s a bit late, and especially sorry that I didn’t make any Christmas renders this year—I just wasn’t feeling well. I’ll try to keep you updated on my situation more regularly. I’ll write something new soon. Hope to see you around!

Feeling Better

I even tried making my first render after a two-month break, and I must say, I was impressed—which means I haven’t lost my skills. That's really something compared to the past two months, which felt like pure vegetation for me—just being there, unable to do anything because of how depressed and ill I was. I have a lot of hope and faith that I will be completely cured, and that it will happen faster than I expected. Some other artists with similar issues have taken longer breaks and, unfortunately, haven’t returned yet—for example, 'TheWiking2000.' The therapy is working, and I’ve agreed with my psychotherapist to spend all of December preparing for my return to work in January. So, I’ll be taking another month-long break, but I truly hope to see you back in January, with the hope that I’ll be better and stronger than ever before.

Yours, Vorifax

News

I really needed a full month away from everything. I'm feeling a bit better, but still not quite like I did before all this happened. I need to fully recover before coming back, no matter how long it takes—it’s a matter of my life and future. So I’ll need to pause for another month, and possibly longer. Please send your prayers for me, as things feel pretty grim. I have no strength left, but I still hold onto hope that someone can help me finally rid myself of something that has haunted me my entire life. I hope to see you all again soon, as soon as possible.

Pausing In October

I thought I would be able to work, but I don't think that's the case. The neurosis has calmed down a bit, thanks to the pills, but my sleep schedule is a mess. I really need some time to recover, so I'll be taking a break in October. As before, billing is paused, so active patrons won't be charged. See you in November, and I hope I'll be feeling better by then.

All the best,
Vorifax

Whats New In September

It took me some time to gather enough courage to write this… I was really afraid to tell you. But I'm sick. I haven't been feeling well for about two weeks now. I've had neurosis for a long time, but it seems the attacks have become more intense. It’s affecting my circulatory system, raising my blood pressure and pulse. I've had several panic attacks, feeling like I was about to die. However, after visiting the doctor and confirming that I'm physically alright, I’ve calmed down a bit. I just wanted to know whether the issue was in my body or in my mind. I don’t want to go on another break, so I’ll start therapy and continue working for you. I just wanted to let you know that I might not be able to stick to my usual rendering schedule, and the upcoming updates may have less renders, but I’ll do my best.

See you in September, Vorifax

Whats New In August?

Feeling much better, and I've already got plenty of renders to share. So, I'm ready to start working for you in August! I'll make some changes regarding updates because many patrons don't understand that they need to check their inbox. I'm kind of losing patience, but it's cool. I hope to make it clearer. Also, I still remember that I didn't complete the Aria render, so if the patron who voted for her in June is still here, don't worry—I haven't forgotten.

Hope to see you in August,
Vorifax

Burnout And Vacations

I'm pausing in July. Sorry that I've just provided you few renders per update. But things didn't go as I expected because I'm very likely burned out. So July is a perfect time to take a break if I won't burn out completely the sun would burn me anyway. Rendering during heat waves is just extreme. Anyway, billing circle is paused so no one gonna be charged for July.

See you in August, Vorifax

Brain Death

This month was terrible. I'm sorry about the small number of renders, but I was unable to concentrate and wasn't satisfied with my work. The panels didn't show the expected dynamics. I ran out of ideas, and my productivity was very low—I barely managed to make more than six renders a week, even without taking a break! I struggled a lot with single scenes because I didn't like them. Most likely, I would take an entire month break for now, but I have one week free at the beginning of June. (There are 4 updates monthly, every Saturday, and June has 5 Saturdays). I hope this break will help me get back on my feet and rid me of this burnout. I hope one week would be enough.

Vorifax

Whats New In May

Sorry if I'm a bit late. Almost forgot to tell you about the news. Well... this month wasn't the best; I struggled with ideas, creativity, and productivity. I had several days where I couldn't concentrate and focus on my work. I hope May is going to be better.

Regarding the news, I reworked the poll system. From now on, the current month's poll will only affect its second, third, and fourth update, while the first update will feature remaining clone masters from the previous month or my own ideas. For example, the first May update will feature Aria because it was a late vote and I couldn't include her in the April schedule. The rest of this update will contain my own ideas. Then the second, third, and fourth May updates will be based on May poll.

Thanks for all the support, and I hope to see you in May.

Vorifax.

Whats New In April?

As you can see I haven't set any goal for March because it simply doesn't make any sense. Some renders require 4-6 hours of work while other like 1-2 hours and there's almost always a space for improvement. So I decided to doesn't really care about the time I spent on each scene. I just want to make them look as good as possible. If I have an idea for making them better I'll do that instead of starting a new project. So I'll be posting as many renders as I was able to do as weekly updates while I wont really look a the numbers. I'm all ready to try that method in new month. We'll see if its better or not. (I've uploaded an example of what I'm talking about)

Hope to see you in April,

Vorifax

GPU Fans

I received, installed, and tested them. They're very silent, as they should be, I guess. Today, I'm going to get back to nighttime rendering. I've prepared 8 renders for the next update; perhaps I'll add a couple more or save them for the last March update. The priority is to fully render and edit all the content from the "Emergency Renders" folder. I want to get back to my working schedule without leaving anything behind.

Vorifax

Some News

1. One of my GPU fans died. But I can still build scenes and render. The problem is that I can't make full 1-1.5 hour renders like I always posted as updates. When my GPU temperature goes to 70C its becoming as loud as motorbike. 10-15minute test renders are fine they just increase my GPU temp to like 65-68C. So untill the problem isn't solved I'll just post final test renders of each scene as update content. I've sent an e-mail to MSI service in my country so maybe I won't need to ship fans from China, because that would took one month.

2. Old December link is still up if someone from Bronze tier wanted to download/save content from Old Comics and Clone Series. I'll keep it for a week or maybe two. Then it would be pernamently accessed only by Silver and Gold tier.

3. Poll vote content need to wait for second March update because I already have some scenes I've made during break which include: Caroline, Nora and Aria.

I'm Back.

No more breaks and I hope its the last time I've done this. 

Anyway, lets talk about whats gonna be new. This time I'll finally introduce the new Clone Master: Divya, that Hindi girl I've show you already. Future content will depend on the poll votes made by Gold Tier, precisely a choose between Clone Master and a theme. I hope its all gonna work.

See you in March, Vorifax

Tier Changes

I've decided to rework my patreon tiers by making following changes:

$5 Bronze - No big changes, just one. From now Bronze tier will only give access to current series of "Clone Masters" Discord access will remain the same. 

$10 Gold - Old $10 Silver tier will become the Gold Tier. Nothing else will change. So full discord access, full archive access + vote power. 

$7.5 Silver - New tier, that would give access to either current serie of "Clone Masters" and all archives (Old Comics and Clone Series). Also full discord access, including work in progress and unpublished/alternative renders. So its gonna be like Gold Tier but without vote power. 

Let me know what you think about it.

Vorifax

Break Extended :(

I made 20 renders during my break, but I don't like any of them. I can see ways to make them better, but I just can't do it. It's frustrating not to feel satisfied with my work. I'm not the kind of artist who posts stuff just to fill the gap. So I decided to give myself very last chance. I had enought rest and now its time to work... Which would be more likely about regaining the right shape and to make sure everything goes in right direction. I will start new scenes and try to improve them untill they'll hit the spot and then... I'll try to keep it up till forever.

Hope to see you in March, Vorifax
