Job hunting, Ko-fi and commissions
5 months ago
General
Just a quick update for everyone!
First and foremost; GO SEE JURASSIC WORLD REBIRTH OMG
Ahem. Also the HTTYD remake was way better than I expected, which made me happy. ANYWAY.
So, after another week of being called off from my full time day job with no option to get any damn hours or use any kind of PTO, I've started the job hunt again. Things arent super dire, but this month is going to be super tight again. In response I am definitely cranking away on the arts, and expect to see more eggs and premade adopts going up just because theyre easy and fun for me, and usually pretty good for a quick bump to money and fairly quick turn around.
I also did set up a ko-fi again finally, but its been years and I'd love any suggestions or feedback on how best to utilize it. Like, for example, I used to do sketches (usually pretty nsfw and of popular/recognizable characters) and have an amount as a goal so people can donate as much or as little as they want to help, then once the goal is reached I'd finish the pic and do full color pretty fancy and such. But then I've also seen people who do things like, if you donate so much at once you get an adopt or a commission for that amount. I'm a little undecided and would love to hear what and how people would rather spend their money if they choose to do the ko-fi thing.
Also commissions are still open, the turnaround is a little longer than the other adopts and such, but I am working consistently on them and I am still taking them because I super need the money, as I said. SO, if you are interested in a commission, definitely message me!
As always though I appreciate you guys so much, whether you can spare money or not, just the faves and comments (i love comments, even if i forget to respond XD) make bad days so much better, and thanks in advance to anyone who has thoughts to share!

OH durp. LOL well I do a bunch of different things, including porn, bdsm themed stuff, hynosis etc. I'm pretty flexible about a lot of things, but if you want something you're worried about, you can always note me to clarify things. The biggest things I WON'T do are things like non-consensual, graphic violence and gore/bodily functions, bestiality and anything inappropriate with underages. I hope that helps a bit :D

I'm not sure how well that specific Ko-Fi idea would go; I haven't seen a thing like that in a very long time barring one exception that was a fundraiser. YCHs seem to be the go-to anymore for rapid stuff. That's not to say the Ko-Fi idea wouldn't necessarily work, it'd just have to definitely have very popular characters to get a lot of traction going.

Yeah that was kinda my thought, and I have seen a bunch of YCH stuff with ko-fi's so I might look into that more. As for the other idea I had, it would definitely be characters like the more popular digimon and such, but I do think YCHs could be more fun.
