Apologize for my delays

Writing this as an update to my T3D art pack that I've been working on for anyone who has followed any of my work. Unfortunately I've made very little progress lately. I blame this in part on Aion's release which I've been playing religiously... (Damn you NCSoft!!)

On top of that though I've been under an extreme amount of stress lately, both work related and personal. Not making excuses, just giving reasons. We all need to take a break from time to time. And best of all this is the first time my stress is highly elevated and it hasn't led to me needing a medication increase! Yayyy! (...won't go there. haha)

Anyhow, after my last blog I made relating to this I put a little more thought into how I want to design this art pack. I decided to actually up the price from $75 to $100. Sounds steep, I know, but I WILL make it worth it, I promise. Also with the price tag being rather steep for some of us I'm also going to split the pack up into smaller, cheaper mini-packs. Obviously I'll have it setup that you'll get a bargain from buying the full thing though such as lower proportioned prices and certain things that you'll get only with the complete package, for example the water shader.

So yea, just a bit of an update on what to expect soon. I'm going to actually start cracking down on myself and making myself work on this really hard in the coming days, stress and personal issues be damned. I'll keep everyone updated.

@Jacob,

Moderation. I take several mini breaks (days, weeks, months) and am actually back from a mini break. Don't mind saying I have a neck injury and stress literally kills me so I know what you are talking about... meds and all:)

But please allow me to add some stress on top of your existing stress.... Pictures pleaze:)!!

Take care....

Hey Jacob, We are also working on an art pack. Are you planning to sell through the GG site? I have not been able to get anyone from there to send me details on how.
