Update on waitlist, prices, new commission type
2 years ago
General
Lots to cover here so I'll try to keep it quick! First of all, I've increased my prices. I've kept them the same for over a year, because I know that prices are rising for everything else and when times get stressful, art can do a lot to improve people's moods. I always want to remain accessible to as many people as possible to help you see your ideas brought to life. But I also wanna be able to pay the bills so... yeah. Everyone on my current waitlist is locked in on my old prices, so no worries there!
However, while I'm on the subject of remaining as accessible as possible, I'm going to trial a more budget friendly, quick and fun sketch type. I'll post a second journal in a moment (edit: later tonight) so that you can get your hands on the first batch of those. And that brings me to the other main thing I want to talk about, which is my commission system.
I'm finally getting close to finishing my first waitlist, and while I absolutely hate having kept people waiting for so long, it does seem to have gone down well with everyone I've spoken to so far. Guaranteed art over time is better than more frequent random chances at art, which makes sense. Going forwards however, I'm going to split the waitlist into two to accommodate my work style. My focus-deficient brain struggles drawing in the same style over and over again, and I think my work can start to suffer from that, so I'm now going to have two different waitlists that I can bounce between. One for my sketch styles, and one for my higher-detailed Inked and Lineless styles.
Once I've gotten through the last few inked commissions (again, so so sorry to the last few for keeping you waiting!) I'll open up for new requests. Thank you all for being patient with me!
