Home + Commissions + Trying to get on my feet. [Long Post]
11 years ago
Tired of my moving updates yet? GOOD.
I'm in a permanent home now (well until I have enough cash to scrape together to either get to a good friend of mine OR overseas, but I digress) and things are looking up.
That being said, commissions can now be a steady source of income for me. Not immediately of course, but still relatively soon.
That being said. I'm at square one. I don't have too good of a laptop to work on with very limited HD space left. In the midst of being kicked out I lost my fish Pez, main laptop, tablet, second screen, 3 tb external hard drive (with about a terabyte and a half of fliles including my music collection, all my art and drawings for the past 4 years digital and non, movies, tv shows, writings, and other documents, etc), 1 tb back up hard drive if the 3 tb failed, my ipod, headphones, my record collection (40+ vinyls), my cameras (yashica twin lens, agfa isolette, polaroid, rangefinder, and a ricoh), my dvds and vhs, cassette tapes, tv, and several personal items that were very important to me that my partner sent.
Some stuff I was willing to part with...however I'm still trying to get over the fact that I literally just have my clothes, my bird, and a laptop that my partner sent. That's it. I'm at square one. Before anyone asks, I have been to the police station, tried to claim stolen property (my parents wouldn't let me back on the property and if I did come back they'd call the cops) but because I didn't have receipts for absolutely everything I couldn't prove much. I had two people with me who witnessed my purchasing several fairly important items (my hard drives and tablet)...
I don't know guys. Part of me says fuck it all and start clean but....I lost ALOT in this move...I hate to do it but I will probably start a donation pool or something so I can gather some form of income while I look for a job close t where I'm now living.
I don't know...its technically just things but they were my things I paid for and worked for...whatever, I dont' want to bog you guys down more than I already have. On to the more important stuff.

Commissions I mean. Since my current machine can't handle too much, I can't take larger digital commissions.
I'd like to but I can't.
So if its alright, I would like to stick to smaller, quicker pieces so that I don't pus this machine too far.
I'll keep you updated with prices and what not but for now I don't want to give prices yet to get notes and the like asking if they can be put on a wait list. Its not the people I'm worried about I am just TERRIBLE with wait lists.
So to save everyone headaches, I'd like it to stay first come first serve type of thing. I'll do what I can through out the day and then once I need to retire for the night I'll find a stopping point...I don't know I apologize but most of this has been off the cuff and thinking out loud.
Along with doing these I may try to see if I can get some traditional commissions here where I live.
That being said, I would like to also accumulate some clean works. I may not be so ready to do nsfw stuff so that if I do happen to get clients here, I can show them things without fear of driving them off for nsfw material.
Anyways...I'm about to go to a local book store with my friend so with that
Au revoir.
