Progress update + change in the renders of the month
🕑 Added 2022-03-28 04:28:33 +0000 UTC
Last week was a bit of a bummer regarding 3D work because of my GPU.
It's getting too slow, and I so I decided to upgrade my working station.
I ordered a new GPU, which should arrive in a few days now.
I still got some work done but it was painful because of the animations to create and the characters involved.
On the bright side, I put in a lot of work with the script.
I'm really far ahead on that part and that's great.
Work is still in progress, but I'm excited for what's coming.
Now, I'd like to talk about the renders of the month.
With the increase of patrons, as well as higher tiers, I have more custom renders to create, and it takes me sometimes a few days to get it all done.
When creating renders of the month, it's usually a day or two of work. The problem with this is not so much the time it takes, but the ideas I need in order to create a unique render every time.
At some point, I'll run out of assets, ideas, originality, and that I don't want.
Also, in the different tiers, there's a poll advantage that I feel is pretty useless when you look at how much poll I open a month.
So all that led me to take this decision.
There will now be a 4K wallpaper every month, featuring one of the many women of The Entrepreneur, and you'll vote for the model every month.
It will be available to chicken tiers and up, as well as the monthly renders were.
I will publish a poll at the end of every month, so that this 4K wallpaper is available around the beginning of the next month.
So, with that being said, I wish you all a great week.

So, I've been refunded by Amazon, and ordered from their shop instead than from a third party seller. It should be delivered on thursday :)
Is Alibaba (basically the Asian Amazon equivalent) still a thing? If so, have you tried there?

I just checked it out, but unfortunately, it only delivers in the USA. It's a shame because it's around 200 $ cheaper than the one I found on amazon! Thanks anyway ;)
As much of a pain as it is to find, Amazon does in fact have a toll free number that you can call to lodge a complaint. And to change the subject slightly, whenever I built my own computers, I always used Newegg.com for my parts and never had an issue. They can even sometimes beat Amazon's price on some things but the downside is you have to pay for shipping unlike if you are an Amazon Prime customer.

Well... Order's been cancelled by the seller on Amazon. Turns out it's not the first time he's done that, he attracts buyers with an attractive price, cancels the order after you paid for it and comes up with an excuse, he told me his supplier couldn't deliver him the product (which would also imply that he sells stuff he doesn't currently have) and then yesterday what I bought was back in his list of products to sell but 45 $ more expensive than when I bought it. Let me tell you, he's had a review from me that he won't forget. So back to square one, I'm going to wait for amazon to refund me, and will look for a new GPU
