Deceit + Commission Prices(Revised)
10 years ago
Alright, first on the table...
After a fight with a friend, some words were said, some I regret. I removed said friend from my life permanently. Not fully for what he said or did in the past, but what he did now.
He has spread a horrible lie about me and it has damaged my pride and put me into despair. Yeah, it really was THAT bad...
Lies hurt, guys. I'm no saint, I've lied too.
As a kid I lied so much that my teeth fell out(They didn't really <.<) But when I look back now, I realize the things I did by lying or the people I may have hurt by lying. In the end I felt guilt, and even to this day, if I could go back in time, I'd kick my kid-self in the ass.
Don't lie about others if you're angry. Trust me, it won't go well in the end.
In fact I feel pity for said friend. I only worry because he is soiling my good name and there was nothing I could do...
So what WILL I do? Hold my head high and keep going. Whats the point of getting back at someone? Be BETTER than them by just holding your head high and moving forward. YOU are moving forward while THEY fall into despair.
I won't let anyone clip my wings and keep me down. Don't you let that happen to you all either.
If you guys had problems like this, please feel free to share them. I only have HUGE ears. :/
Next up, commissions!
So I've gotten a lot of feedback and some of my commissioners were confused or not happy with certain things like payment.
Let me explain the best I can...
I still have a few drawings left to do. Since I have no job, I have all the time in the world for them. But I am not fast as certain artists and I'm sorry. Patience is key >>> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0ppaiQ6mhbE
I have a simple set of 10 slots and you're welcome to pay and reserve a spot.
Why am I asking for payment sooner? Because I'm not the only one who does that actually...
Plus I still have no job and a laptop that needs paid weakly. At least $80 every two weeks.
I know this sounds like a scam, but PLEASE trust me. Besides, if I scammed someone, that would put a HUGE dent in my reputation...
I hope it makes sense. Again, if you're still confused, please TALK to me.
Here is the updated commission list:
====================================================
Lineart - $10.00 $5.00 Add a character (Simple lineart of a character. No background or color. Just an outline)
Flat Colors - $15.00 $5.00 Add a character $5.00 add a background (Add color to above and you get this. Back ground my be included.)
Full - $25.00 $10.00 Add a character (A drawing with the works. Color, background, as well as smooth shadings to the best of my abilities.)
Comics American/Manga - $30.00 Per page. (the difference here is, American comics read left to right and usually have color unless said otherwise. Where as Manga reads right to left and usually has no color unless said otherwise.)
Icons - $15.00 (Like full drawings but smaller and easier to do.)
Refs - $25.00 (Refs of a simple character or two. Can be flat colors or full. Whatever is desired.)
==================================================
Wow, that went on longer than I had hoped for. I hope you guys have the patience to read.
Stay strong. Let's take this world together~

FA+

But it's great to see you bouncing back after this, you're taking the right attitude to this "keep calm and carry on" and all that...
You would think people would give you a break knowing your current situation...
But regardless I hope that the commissions go well for you, and that they get you where you need financially.
^^
I was really depressed this morning then I did some reading. A few verses from the Bible(Assuming you might be religious, if not then I won't say anymore) lightened the mood a bit.
So for now I'll just draw and carry on like usual.
and a slight increase of your prices is a smart way to reach your goal faster
Thank you for your concern.
