General
I am no longer making or offering commissions. It seems you lot prefer art to cost a fortune & I've had absolutely no interest in any of my works. Hence why if you ask for art, forget it. I'm too busy & so sick & tired of some of the folk who ask for commissions. Example
14 year old: Can you do me free art?
me: I don't normally do them for free. Feck it, it's been months since I last made a commission, sure but it'll take a while
14 year old: Okay, I want to be dressed as a Jedi with a big boner!
me: Errm, okay I'll see what I can do
-Two weeks later-
Me: Finished
14 year old: Nah, don't like it, I want to be riding a motorbike
me: Fine
-another fortnight later-
me: hope you like
14 year old: naaah don't like it, halo soldier
-at this point I don't bother & a couple more weeks later I get-
14 year old: Where's my art? GIVE ME MY ART YOU DICK!
I can't be done with the riff raff, by all means you can put suggestions down for artwork as I do get stuck for ideas & if you want to feature in my art, send a note & I'll see if I can stick you into another project but I'm no longer doing solo works as they're too much work & as I've shown, can be a right pain up the 'arris
In other news, contemplating making a comic set with a group of pals & don't have any character ideas. Don't expect it immediately as it'll take a lot of time & work so it may be started after new year

Psh. I can't even give my art away.
I see the local artists churning out the same old stuff for £30 a go and filling 10 slots in a matter of minutes. I see them funding their trips to conventions, brand new games consoles, and high-end artist materials, purely from what they make out of pictures. I see them taking more commissions in a day than I take all year. Regardless of heart, soul, talent, style or just how "good" what I do is, it certainly is not desired, either for money or even for free. Furries only seem to want art from artists that other furries want art from, those that are popular even if they're not outstanding as artists, while it's ever recursive that furries do not desire my art because other furries do not desire my art.
