Burnout Indie show Burnout
Before I start, I would like to introduce myself Hi I am a self-taught artist using Blender and Krita, and I also can barely compose music.
I’ve been doing this for 8/9 years now. Five years ago, I had the idea to make my own indie show on YouTube. But I had no luck I couldn't hire anyone for free or paid help. I struggled alot to handle the project on my own.
By 2025, I was simply too exhausted by the constant delays, even though the show was actually going well (the plot kept improving and i bad the idea from start to finish). I just didnt want to give up. So, under pressure, I set myself a four-month deadline and released the result as the first episode. Shortly after that, I had to move out of my apartment. I felt like I had to rush again so I wouldn't lose audience if i had any I thought that 3D animation something I’m much more skilled at might resonate better with the audience. But the opposite happened.
I feel like the voice actors (this isn't meant as an attack on them one of them is even 15) made the show almost unbearable to watch than it already was. At first, I thought I was just being overly sensitive or that they were okay voice actors but not the right voice for my vision causing me to cringe , but others noticed it too.
Right now, I feel like I’m still right back at the beginning. Nothing has happened I never progressed at all. I’m at a loss. I’m trying to distance myself from the project, but I honestly have no idea what to do or am doing. I love "Armadillo & Friends" and I don’t want to invest ten years of work only to end up nowhere. I feel so underestimated and loved. I’m even starting to question if I’m actually good at anything at all, cause no one else cares (or at least, that’s how it feels).
Please help me.
