Future of Commissions! When I'll open and more info
11 years ago
Hey ya'll. So recently I did a sort of trial run for wing-it commissions that, although still took me two weeks to complete per piece, that was caused by loads more distractions than I had anticipated and a fair bit of depression. (seriously no worries, I'm fine now) And what I've decided from that is I would definitely like to continue doing them, but make a few changes in what I offer. For instance, I am going to cut back a bit on the shading, and make it a simpler style. (of which I'll have an example or two when the time comes). Although I like my style as is, I spend way too long on each piece. Which means either simplify what I make or raise prices. And instead of the latter, I am going to work on simplifying.
So simplifying my style aside, most everything else is going to stay the same, and I am going to attempt to reduce my turn around dramatically. *fingers crossed* But I will not be offering any commissions until next month, as I am spending the rest of this one working and researching going to college again for animation (another excellent reason for me to work faster).
Oh and to anyone who I refunded a few months back, if you are still interested in a commission from me by the beginning of next month I will give you a priority spot in my upcoming rounds. Don't worry about contacting me about it until then though please!
And as for all else, no I wont be taking a waitlist, or rather if I do, it'll open same time as my commissions.
Also I am always interested in customers opinions (past, present and future). So I have a couple of questions for those who would be willing to give some much appreciated feedback!
How do you feel about first come first serve vs. artist picking people at random for their commission queue?
Would you be more tempted to commission me if I offered linearts or flat color commissions as well? (still in a wing-it style)
Would you like to see more YCH auctions from me?
I am considering offering 3 character commissions, is anyone interested in that?
Oh and more Art/Critique related: What do you feel is something I could personally improve on in my art?
(don't worry about hurting my feelings, I'd like to know what others view my weaknesses as)

I'm considering offering linearts down the road though. They are much quicker!
The more art styles you offer, the more tempted I'd be to commission.
Depending on poses and such, I wouldn't mind doing YCH
I would be very interested in the character commission
I donno, I'll probably stick to first come first serve. Depends on how fast I can improve my turn around.
As far as clothes that is one of my own personal goals :D I get so few requests to draw them that I have little experience with them. Same with girls haha
