COMMISSIONS NOW OPEN + December Plans (Input appreciated)
10 years ago
Hey guys! It's the near-annual event of me opening my commissions again due to certain need. It's not as alarmingly emergent like any other time, but I require it nonetheless. You all seem to be interested in commissioning me anyway, and that's despite my horrible delivery times, so kudos to this. I really am trying to be better at it but sometimes things slip away. I'll again try my hardest to give your money's worth in both quality and time.
For now I only accept one order per commissioner and I don't accept comic commissions, but both of these are subject to change later depending on the slot availabilities.

Let's have a little heart to heart guys. I always feel a little bad whenever I come back and ask for you guys to chip in, because I earnestly believe that people on FA support me very, very well; with little to no dramas despite it's usually me who fucks things up. I think you all deserve a lot more than me asking for paid drawings. I don't usually enroll in collabs or art trades and I kinda really want to do them, but for many years I've been here, life always got in the way and I couldn't really provide enough. The odd times that I could, I had already owed so many people so much I couldn't handle it for everybody, so I turned it into a game, called Sonikko Cosplays contests.
I've been planning to make a new one, in fact! My main plan was to do it before opening back the commissions because let's get real: it is really sleazy to first open commissions, and then just 3 weeks later announce a thing where I give a lot of what I sell for free. But due to happenstance and my irl wages getting astray, I have to open the commissions first. I realize this is unfair to my commissioners so I'd like to give them a little more incentive, if you don't mind me doing that.
For those who don't know, SONIKKO COSPLAYS is a contest I make, that's basically a Guess Who game. I start thinking of a character and people on FurAffinity can each ask me a Yes or No question. The answers to these questions get accumulated, so people can guess this character correctly over time. At the end of the whole contest, I submit a work of mine that portrays female Sonic cosplaying as this character and I give my commissions as gifts for those who participated. The two times I made it, the characters were Ivy Valentine and Enoshima Junko.
This time I want to change things a little. The rules are going to be roughly the same for people who participate like they've always did (participants can either ask one question and guess one character, or they can guess three characters but cannot ask anything). And there will be a prize raffle for those who ask a question to give proper incentive to asking instead of just waiting for the contest to end and taking three guess chances when everything is laid out. But I want to have two additions to these rules, former being about me thinking it's unfair to those who commission me. These are not set in stone and just ideas: meaning if you think these are horrible ideas I will not use them.
I want to give anyone who commission me in this wave to have one extra character guess chance. How much they have commissioned me is irrelevant, you can just pick up the cheapest option and benefit from this advantage. Bear in mind this is limited by the commission slots and you may wish not to participate in my contest even if you bought something.
I also want this event to be more of a community effort, so I'd like to give the same bonus to those who'd like to draw and submit an image of Sonikko. You don't have to worry about your skills and quality, I just want to promote all those who draw female Sonic as we need to see her from more artists I believe. If you've already commissioned, you can also benefit from this bonus, but instead of getting 2 guess chances you get an extra QUESTION,
One thing that has always been hard for me during these events is to keep up with both DeviantArt and FurAffinity, so I'd like to keep this one in FurAffinity only, but at the same time I kind of want to promote my DeviantArt group SonicGS (http://sonicgs.deviantart.com/) so I'm still unsure on which platform should this event take. I am thoroughly against it being on both at the same time, but if people on FA are okay with it, we can migrate it on DeviantArt and make use of the more suitable poll and layout options that DeviantArt presents, which will make it easier to handle this kind of an event.
That was a type-load, sorry about that. If you've read this much, thanks a lot, and please do lay down your opinions on these matters, and note me if you want a commission from me! <3 Love you guys.

FA+

They'd be with my Deer (you drew) and one of the sonic characters, like Vanilla or Rouge, or maybe even Sonniko?
I just figured it would be the same as getting 4 single characters hehe
I will note you some ideas and you can decide if you want to do it or not?
Normally a Half-Body Colored-Shaded pic with two characters is $22, but since the only difference between two characters is a mere clothes alteration, I'll push it down to $20.
