Bad news! (on top of this)
[indiegogo] [patreon] [donate] [commission]
Starting today, July 27, 2015, my five-year-old computer won’t work! My sole form of income through digital art won’t stay on!
Well, it kind of does. You have to avoid touching the entire left side of it. And forget adjusting your seat - if you shift the slightest bit, the entire screen looks like you caught MissingNo and then it restarts. As long as you can avoid breathing, it’s just fine.
So it’s broken.
I give it about a week before I can’t even boot it up anymore. That means I can’t work on my commissions anymore. That means I can’t survive without outside help.
On top of that, rent is coming and our landlord is sending aggro messages even though we’re paid up to the end of the month. We were warned he wasn’t as nice as he looked by local friends so I was at least emotionally prepared for it. (It’s a shame; he was a step up from the one who tried to gas us.)
As it looks now, I need $500 usd or so for a new laptop (or used idc) before I can’t access this hard drive anymore. Then I need $500 usd before the end of the month to avoid getting evicted. These two needs are coming at the same time this week, so I made an Indiegogo.
I am still accepting commissions. There are other bills to pay. Please be aware that working on them until I have a new computer is perilous, because I don’t know when this old thing is going to finally give out. It may take a few weeks to finish everyone’s. Ideally a whole bunch of people will donate $1 each and I’ll be able to start drawing on a new device asap.
Please reblog this. Tell people about us.
If you put a dollar in the donate button, you can make it anonymous.
If you put a dollar in the Indiegogo, it counts for the goal of laptop + rent.
If you put some dollars into our Patreon, you get guaranteed art every month.
If you commission me directly you can watch me stream it as long as the computer works.
I can’t draw if I don’t have a device for it. Please share. I made the main image transparent so it’d look great on your blog. If the Indiegogo is short of its goal, then this post is still relevant.
