June Update/ EGwords of note~
13 years ago
So after the roommate had a minor car accident at the beginning of May + had to immediately pay $2k or get in legal trouble~ I kinda froze up about being productive, punctual & art prolific. Under temporary pressure is one thing, but I wasn't going to offer consistent commissions while too worried I'd stop mid-process/ be stuck when I couldn't afford more paper or printerink.
Also wanted to say, I've never intended to make 'a living' off specifically furry art or this site (if I had I'd do porn?) & I'm still thankful for the help & commissions I've received. No one wants to try to make a career from the same veins they beg from / have as a hobby only or keep on the backburner. My degree is still technically for Motion Media Design & I look forward to constantly designing animation professionally for a company before I'm 30 (~2 more years).
THAT
SAID
If you'd like a sketchpage (or ANY commission from me), it'd be a good time to get in line? Let me know? I don't have new 'slots' open yet but I plan to when I've no more commissions to upload. All older commissions are drawn ( if not 'scribbled' rather); I'm just being picky finishing them before scanning AND I need to find a new way to share the fullsize PSD files with clients ( they're ALWAYS over gmail's 25mb limit... plus my GoDaddy inkweiss.com hosting expired HURFHURFfaildurf)
So brutally honestly, I don't work ~cheap~ (start at '~a full day's work'/ nought less than $80), but I'm willing to take incremental payments, keep work private, singular e-mailed WIPs orrrrr maybe even try streaming~
and definitely, please, ALL ABSTRACT DEVELOPMENT/ Production Work your brain might ever dream up. How do I win THAT business from you, dear sirs?
Characters that need their designs pushed, personalities explored, or even entirely re-thought. Storyboarding or comic panelling. Environments or theoretical objects, scenarios whathaveyou. Anything that's abnormal or involving your 'Original Created Fictional World' is what interests my drawing hand & itches; so much more than making another cute fox ( although my scribblehand does seem to poop them) ... my problem(s) is a lot of my self-fulfillment with art stems from NEEDING to give people an idea or design element they hadn't explored before & having them run to the fucking STARS with it... when I do art that is 'Just Another Portrait for the Pile' well yeah my drawings aren't DOING anything or TAKING anyone's art to another level so I feel like they might as well not exist?! #RenderRegret haha oops.
SO IF YOU'VE BEEN WATCHING THIS SPACE... especially for one-day future custom artwork? ...~please tell me you're watching this space! The interwebs is big + especially since tumblr I don't sign into FA enough! Apologies I'm an improvement masochist~
Also, Roxorfoxor's birthday is this June month, mine's nexxxt month~
If you are willing to give or trade-for-commissions the following you'd ROCK;
-new Apple 85W Magsafe Power Adapter (one Mac lives @a time right now :P)
-NuPower replacement batteries for either 08 Macbook or 2010 MacbookPro
-Apple Wired USB Keyboard sans Numpad
-2 Rain mStands
-3 or 4 SmudgeGaurds <3 http://www.smudgeguard.com/ ( 2 each...? heh )
-I've been asking for a normal WiFionly noAds Kindle for awhile.. that'd be awesome..
-same thing with a Toshiba netbook~ either Rox or Me need a NonArting WebMachine
and always,
although it's not something to barter FOR (but WITH mebbe surething)
-Artjam friends on the Eastside/ Kirkland WA area~!
I really should earn some cash though, my meds never stop being expensive... crap :x

I think you'd do a great job of "pushing her design". And perhaps you would prefer NOT seeing any references?
Anywho, tell me if it piques your interest, and I'll tell you more.
I plan to comission you on the future o.o both for the portrait pile and char or world development... but at the moment i'm poor (although your work is surely worth it, 80 dollars is a load of money for me, dollars are kinda expensive right now in Brazil)
maybe in the near future...
good luck to you and the roomies!
People probably think they are loosing ownership when their chars are being developed by another person - most here treat these things on a personal level, not professional - though this aspect seens to have changed a bit with the advent of adoptables - not entirely sure about this practice tho', some artists use it very cheaply
Good luck with your artwork. :)
