In my opinion, you don't have much time to fullfill your perfectionism. You should have to control your perfectionism and finish the work first. If you are not satisfied with some part of your piece of art, let it go for now. Just like you have a time checkpont that if you finish a certain part, you must not go back to change it after some time.

3 days for skin tone? I don't think its that weird since there sure is a lot of skin showing in this piece. XD

I have considered an assistant like I talked about, even a manager but I strongly feel like that would stop making me and possibly a lot of fans consider me as an individual artist but a team/company. I don't want that to be a thing. I still want Patreon campaign to be you guys supporting me for what I do. Once I start having serious assistants and manager and business planning, I'll turn into an art merchant rather than an artist. It's just an ego that I and most Patreon artists have, not very healthy but yeah.

Hi Fuya, While I understand your frustration of not making much progress and also falling behind schedule again, I also think that perfectionism isn’t something bad (in a reasonable amount) and that attention to detail is something I love about the majority of your drawings. I’ve also made my peace with the delay and am happy as long as I/we are being blessed with your beautiful drawings. But as you’ve said this is about the third time you’ve been frustrated with yourself and your habits (at least openly on Patreon) and your attempts to change this has been as far as I could see not very long-lasting (I don’t mean this in a mean way :O). If your current method of trying to speed things up isn’t working out perhaps another approach might be better? As an outsider with no real knowledge of your working day it’s a bit difficult to come up with an appropriate solution but I’ve already mentioned it in the past that you might need some form of assistant. I’m aware that you tried some drawing assistant in the past but perhaps you simply need someone to keep you on track? Or try to be sterner with yourself and pre-plan your drawings and keep to that plan (if possible) for as much as possible?

Keep it up dude, no worries. Love your stuff and thanks for keeping us in the loop!

Thanks man, but well I can't call it a burnout. If it is a burnout I wouldn't want to draw but this is not that. I have no problem drawing. I just can't do it any faster. It's just a big frustration moment.

There is always an excuse. Just saying. You’re never going to catch up.

Get the rest you need, your health is always first!.

It happens and you're human, all i ask is you stay safe and healthy and take mental and physical breaks when needed. Will always suppost as long as i am able to. =)

Bruh, I get it. It's good to adhere to schedules but it's not weak to admit you need to take a break now and then and it sounds like you're experiencing some heavy burnout. If you need to rest a bit, do so. I'm not gonna move my pledge while you catch up on your health.
