black and white stars in the sky

June and July were quiet. I realized it was time for a break. I had been going non stop for years and my body told me so. I had never been in "burnout" mode before so this was new to me. Nothing was satisfying nor enjoyable. Having surgery and being forces to "relax" helped me see this.

It was like every force of nature was ringing a bell to me. But I had a business to run and orders kept coming in and so I just did what had to be done. Until one day..... I had a printer go down, not uncommon but what caught my attention was when I went to buy parts. I had been so busy that I missed how far advanced 3d printing has come. I missed that my 2 year old machines were obsolete and my year old machines were outdated.

So I decided in June, it was time to step back and re-evaluate the situation I was in. Do I really want to keep buying new equipment as tech advances? Especially in today's society where it seems to be updating every month. It was time to step back and look towards the future.

We are about a week away from July and with lots of research I have upgraded my "Body" machines. I am blown away! I spent 6 years trying to reach the quality I have been recently producing in FAR less time. This has prompted me to push more PAINTED BODIES. I've kept a pretty low profile these past few weeks due to these changes and basically just creating a bunch of new stuff. This has REALLY helped with morale and my whole attitude. A REFRESH!

So I'm still printing like crazy, I've been doing a lot of painting and finishing bodies to sell as "Finished Bodies". I'm also getting all new photos of every body painted and completed. I'm trying to get all listings to look "Proper" with a refreshed look. I really can't wait to release this stuff but that was always my weakness, I just wanted to show new stuff that I never got "Proper" displays of them. That is what I'm currently doing.

So I'm still here working, it's just the refreshed, sharper, focused and WAY more determined than ever! I look forward to giving a whole new experience with SKILLSWITCH RC and have a whole new "Humbleness" for all those who support SKILLSWITCH.

Here's to the future!

I have also decided to keep Etsy after FINALLY speaking with them. At least for now, I believe my issues have been solved. So I have a portion of listings there and will add over time. Ebay Store is still there, I still need to think about selling there. Social media.... umm. I'm trying, every time I log on, I see something that just changes my mood. Maybe in time I will get more involved or I may just have someone take care of that for me, haha. Not sure about that yet.

I think that's it for now, I gotta go paint another one.
