One Month and Counting...
18 years ago
General
Okay, so a few of you folks out there know that I've been in the US Army's active miltary service for almost five years now, and to put the experience in a nutshell, it's been... an experience. A learning one. (Groucho) Mostly I learned I don't like the army. (/Groucho) While the decision to join the military is one that makes me want to go back in time and pimp-slap myself before I walk through the recruiting office doors, the army -has- given me a whole new respect for the normal civilian life I took for granted, and I was fortunate enough to spend most of my time in Germany, where I met my dear friend and big sis, Caycay from DevART. ^^
Well, my five year active-service contract is up as of July 30th, and I'm twisting myself into a knot of anticipation just waiting. In about a month's time, I'll be back to having a normal life again! Whee! Of course, I'm gonna miss the heck out of Caycay, who I visitied every other weekend where we would proceed to hang out and temporarily forget school and the miltary. My leaving, atop with a few other things that have been happening this year, are hitting her pretty hard... So go! Go to Caycay's page at http://caycay.deviantart.com and send her lots of loves! Admire her artsiness! Thank her for keepin' a dude like me sane these past few years! Go! I'll wait.
..Back? Cool. So, this next month is gonna have me rushin' around (due to a bit of that good ol' military 'competence'), but I'm not gonna forget you folks! I'm gonna finish up the commissions I owe before I have to ship off my computer and scanner on the 23rd, so no worries there, guys. Alas, with my stuff getting shipped out on the 23rd, and me not leaving until the 30th, that's a whole week (or more) I'll be internet-deprived! That's a warning for those of you who might actually wonder where I've gone off to. All three of you.
Enough of the blather, though. lemme give you the low-down on my current art status stuff:
--COMISSIONS--
1) Nik Vulper (3 of 5 complete, 4th of 5 sketched)
2) Fanimal (Concept phase)
PRICES!
- $5 for a sketch (Pencil only, no touch-ups with Photoshop will be involved.)
- $10 for inked (Black and white, great for coloring on your own, if you want. A preliminary sketch will be provided for your approval before completion).
- $15 for colored (Via Photoshop. A preliminary sketch -and- the inked version will both be provided for approval before completion.)
- $5 more for every extra character (Sketch, Inked, or Colored)
- 10% off your purchase if it's five pics or more
- 25% off your purchase if it's ten pics or more
PAYMENT!
I'll only work through PAYPAL on this one, folks. If your commission is accepted, I'll give you the price and address to send to.
COMPLETION!
Once your commission is completed, I will send you a copy via email. I will only post the artwork with your consent.
--ART TRADES--
I'll never so much demand a trade of art as I will feel compelled to doodle for other folks. If you wanna return the favor, feel free! And just so you all know, if you doodle for me first, I might be compelled to doodle right back, so watch out! And if you wanna actually set up an official art trade, I'll mark it here!
--REQUESTS--
ATTENTION: I will not be accepting any more requests, for now... I mean, the whole reason I started the request list in the first place was because I didn't think folks would actually wanna pay for anything I drew, but now that I know that's not true, well, can you blame me for taking advantage of the opportunity? Don't worry, I'll finish the list off, though. ^^

Not that being in the military is a BAD thing, it's just not for some people. Like me. Cats don't take orders well;)
