I'm Back! (Sorta Kinda) (This One Comes From The Heart)

Hi everybody!

As some of you may have noticed, I haven't been active On LEGO Ideas for quite some time. Now, I could say I was hunting lost artifacts or finalizing my plans for world domination, but sadly, that's not the case. Without going into too much detail, I've mostly been fighting a particularly persistent bout of depression/burnout, which took far more time and energy than I had hoped and anticipated. As a result, interacting with the lovely community and following all the wonderful projects on here became an increasingly more daunting task for me. Many a time had I opened up the LEGO Ideas website, checked my project for all the supportive comments, fully intended on replying, and... I just froze, fingers poised above the keyboard with no words ever coming out. In the end, I decided that if I couldn't find the strength and motivation to keep up with something I love dearly... well, let's just say I needed a long, much needed break.

Thankfully, things have improved greatly. I'm slowly piecing my (LEGO) life back together, and I'm going to attempt playing catch-up with everything that has happened on Ideas. Writing this personal message to all of you is simply the first step of many. Not making any promises, but I will try to post more Planetary Exploration updates from now on. And who knows, there just might be another Ideas submission in the making...

Thank you all for you unwavering support in my absence, and please accept my apologies for my sudden disappearance. I'll try not to let that happen again!

Warmest regards,

Steven

Almost At 1K!

Hi everybody!

After a bit of a hectic month of August, I've been on a much needed vacation break! This also means I haven't been very present on LEGO Ideas, so I'd like to apologize for my silence during the past few weeks. Meanwhile, votes for my Planetary Exploration set have continued to trickle in nicely, and it's currently only eight votes away from the first major milestone: the big 1K!

Thank you all for your unwavering support and votes! Wouldn't have got this far without you! If you'd like to help out in any way, sharing the project on any social media platform is immensely encouraged and appreciated!

New Features!

Since more and more sites seem to be picking up on my Planetary Exploration set, I decided to put all the links in a separate update that I'll edit every time a new feature pops up online. If you found your way here through any of the links below, thank you for your support! And, of course, a huge shout out to the sites and blogs that decided to share my creations!

Support Gathered

The past week has been an unexpectedly thrilling ride. When I put up my Planetary Exploration set, I was hoping and/or aiming for maybe a 100 votes by the end of the first week, but I have never been happier to be proven wrong! Thanks to all your unwavering support, voting and sharing, the counter is steadily moving up towards the first "real" milestone: the big 1K!
