Not pleased with myself. Staying the course.

My eyelids are heavy as I'm typing this, about to get some sleep, but yep, still not done...and I was so sure saturday or sunday would be it.
This whole dumb project has been a bitter pill. I'll be honest, there really is only a minute of full animation in the short but its taken two whole months to produce. A clear reminder that the Starbarians style is locked in at an excruciating 6 minutes per year without a big Helluva Boss-style team and budget (and I DID pay for help on this project, two assistant animators, a colorist, voice work and music!). A team of dozens is really what I need so I'll work on getting that for the future. I'm sick of these forever-schedules and disappointing shorts. Each episode taking half a decade is beyond parody.
Thank you for your support, truly. I'll squeeze this tiny pipsqueak of a cartoon out this month and then take a long hard look at how the hell I can do better and faster - the comic being a source of funding beyond paying for itself is something that I am going to explore.

Perfectionism is my mortal enemy. Be better Harry, kill it. Crucify it. Your fans are here for what you enjoy, not what you think we're here to enjoy <3

Don't go too hard on yourself, dude. The stuff you put out is always worth the wait. You've earned some rest and then some. We'll all still be here whenever it's finished
Don’t worry Harry your still and always will be my biggest inspiration, your awesome

Dude, you're faster than Bethesda.

I'd rather a minute long short made by one man who cares and his handful of help than most of the soulless garbage being belted out these days.

And we love you no matter what, Boss.

Take as much time as you need, and don't forget to take care of yourself, Harry. I feel like the fact that these cartoons take as long to finish as they do is a testament to how dedicated you are to your craft. That should certainly count for something.

I understand WAAAAAY too well how you feel, but you got this and don’t sacrifice your physical and mental health for a video release date. In the long run no one will remember the release date. They’ll remember the final product and your work is soooo good it’s worth the wait. Take the lessons you’ve learned on this one onto the next project and know you’re not getting rid of me and my support for whatever you do. (Even if you finally get that restraining order to go through) 😜
Harry, you are fighting the good fight. Your animation of extremely high quality and it's so engaging and well-written. I know you must be feeling like a Bilbo: butter spread over too much bread. Take the time you need to rest and regroup. We're on your side!

Harry I will never stop supporting you.
