OK, so we're rounding out a year in which I hadn't really had much to say or I've been too busy to bring up my life stuff.
I will be honest, I'm mostly begging for commissions again. Commissions are never closed but I wasn't taken any for a while there, and no one was asking. I haven't taken any just to avoid throwing more responsibilities into me than I'm ready to take but let me say I'm ready for some. I took a few commissions this year, and most of them were private, so I couldn't really share them.I can't offer any sales, my work is already low priced.
I MIGHT do a 10$ IDGF "I don't give a fuc" commission offer sometime this week, which means you give me 10$ and you get what ever you wanted but I just half ass it. Black and white sketchy only sort of dumb shit. Now of course, I still have to put the normal rules onto it, like nothing that could get me in trouble, but it would be an anything goes so long as it's funny.
I'm just gonna be real, I need money to buy more shit. If you can't afford living or you got bills, keep your money. Make sure you're safe and well fed. This is for those furries who have too much extra cash and want to see their furries drawn. And yeah, I'm drawing a lot of humans, but please understand, I still do toony cute characters and furries. Part of all that is to improve my anatomy and practice. I feel like I do get better at these things the more I draw them.
Twice this last week I had people ask me why I wasn't more popular because my art is so good. I really don't know, other than I do keep to myself a lot more now. I think anyone here has read me talk about it before, and I will say most of my issues come from just not networking better. Friendships are still hard for me to rationalize as real mostly because I've had to accept that people come and go. I'm just gonna be here, I'll try and branch out, but it's better to just do what I can.
Going forward into the new year? Maybe I can actually commit to finishing a story for once. Hopefully it's just gonna be catching up on all the WIPs I started and I need to finish. Most of this year has been spent trying to find better galleries to be apart of and rebuild over and over again. Substar I have to just give you guys simple things again, because you guys are paying for it, and I hope they don't bill you for "nothing". Itaku still is my back up, that place is very hard to engage with, but it's a great alternative over FA. And FA is STILL my best platform. You guys are still sticking by here, I appreciate that. Newgrounds, I don't know, it's the same complaint. If it doesn't have boobs, no one cares. My fault is that it's hard for me to engage with other artists. I must be intimidated. I'll try and be better.
Anyway, how you guys doing?
