Giving up...
11 years ago
Very sorry about the lack of activity here on FA and especially to those who have asked me for commissions and participation here on FA. I've been struggling to finish my last batch of commissions and balancing that with personal life, work, study, and also my own personal story projects which I constantly put last in the priority list. This week it finally happened. What I had been fearing happened. Someone finally asked for their money back.
I think it's kind of a wakeup call for me to say I simply cannot handle doing commissions anymore. It has been a great way to get some extra income but frankly it's not worth it if I keep falling behind to the point where not only do I have to return people's money but also finish those same drawings anyway.
Some of you who I have done commissions for know that when I've taken too long I always do it free. This time however it was too much and frankly I dunno why I feel like the guy was kind of an ass about it... though I don't deny he is in the right. It's a huge harem of characters... in fact about 33 of them so yeah it's going to take long! But I digress since I also see it's my fault for taking on such a project in the first place and not being more realistic about how long it would take.
My point is that I'm very sorry but I no longer take art commissions, requests or do trades. It is not because I don't like to or want to but because it would be irresponsible of me to take it and then take forever to finish and then have you get mad at me. Until I can pump out quality images the way I'd love, I will be pretty much just focused on personal projects, art strictly for myself for everyone to enjoy, and maybe see what it's like on the flip side and become a patron of the arts. It doesn't take too much searching to find so many wonderfully talented artists who both need and merit getting commissioned to do such great work!
I will try to finish up any and all commissions, requests and even a touch up on this http://www.furaffinity.net/view/14392851/ image where I mistakenly forgot to add the fox girl's hair.

P.S. I really do not care about the hair on the fox. The image is nice enough as is. ^^
Also some personal issues of course. I replied late since I just got internet service back on only yesterday.
