commissions were opened (again)
2 years ago
ok so: here we go again!
i'm reopening commissions.
i was reopening commissions - as of now: they are closed
[main page is 'up to date place' in this regard]
it's actually somewhat bad timing for doing this - i'm having some hurdles in general (more than usually more like), but that is beside the point... - in short: early on: up to April (probably), it'll take me longer to draw (probably) and i'll be taking payment after image is done, until i get my sh*t together.
also: Stable Diffusion / MidJourney / DALL-E, might completely up end digital art industry, but someone needs to make images that go into their learning datasets, without attribution or request for permission *cough, cough - i'm not bitter at all*
also: inflation is raging on - but i guess some claim that "entertainment industry is recession proof".
i've decided on atrocious price hike of nearly ~2x (which puts me in line with "market pricing" - so i'm no longer "great deal" artist, inflation caught up to me)
anyway, current pricing is here:
https://www.furaffinity.net/commiss.....s/fingerprint/
tweaked ToS is here:
https://www.furaffinity.net/journal/5959573/
beyond pricing tos changes most notable change i decided on is that i'll enforce "one image per spot in queue" policy this time. - it helps me to estimate time frames better - and i'm really bad at drawing series of images (same OC's over-and-over again), i have artistic ADHD if you will, and i get bored and burned out easily on bigger projects - sorry about that.
also: while up until now i did this "First In First Out queue" thing - i'll probably end up working on up to 2 images at once this time - staggered in such way where i'm "starting 2nd, while 1st is half-way-done" and "when 1st is done, 2nd is half-way-done, i start 3rd", and so on and so on. no idea if it'll improve my productivity - i'd just like to try this workflow - if it'll turn out to be hindrance: i'll go back to "one image at the time" approach.
i'll still be aming for somewhat aggressive 3:1 'commission':'requests/personal projects' ratio - i'd like to make some PC upgrades, Intel 4th gen. (Haswell) is basically 10 y/o now, i might end up skipping entire DDR4 generation, so it's not like i'm on 'cutting edge of upgrade cycle' anway, i think it's reasonable to think about upgrade now.
*maybe i won't get backlogged for entire year again within two weeks this time*
anyway: have a nice day!

Frankly it's good to see you up your prices like that, the quality of your art deserves it and your time is worth it too
