Thoughts and updates (ychs, commissions, other things)
9 years ago
Ok. I always have no idea of how to start such journal entries, so I'll probably start with the statements.
First. I finished my first wave of commissions. There were 10 of them (to be honest, there were 11 finished, but one never went public, because it was off the queue. Yes, commissioner paid me A LOT to do that. Don't worry, it's not that different from the other commissions) + 3 test ones, done before the first wave.
The results are unclear: doing all these pics was lots of fun, and I learned a lot and evolved pretty much. However, every time I got "new" desires like "draw my char bondaged and plowed by a big horse", I got more and more disappointed, because I think that's cool, and you may ask for what you want, however:
- this turns my gallery into completely feral horsefuck photo album. I love feral horses, and I respect bondage, but that's not my fetish really I mean. I'm not into this conveyor thing stuff;
- these arts look kinda similiar, even if I tried to make my every art pretty different from the other ones;
- maybe it's just me, being too critical about my own arts;
- or maybe it's lack of skill at sketching and especially posing, that made all these arts look the same...
+ some of the pieces in my gallery made me a bit wrong reputation resulting into some cool people turned away from me. That's not really fun, and Ihardly really regret that.
Second. Long ago I chose my way to shade and color things, and right now I feel like I reached almost top of this way. So, now I'm on a peak of evolution (which is good), but from that point I can see another peak, which looks much more promising and cool. But to get there I need to go back from that peak I'm on and choose a different way. So, I can't promise my arts will be the same for a while. I'm gonna learn new ways and experiment with coloring. The future is unclear...
***
Anyway, my conclusions are:
1) I won't be open to new commissions any soon.
2) but when I do, there will be no more long queue (so people were waiting a year to get a drawing from me). You know, if I'm gonna live 30-40 more years, I don't want to owe half of my life to somebody. 1-3 slots at a time will be quite enough.
3) the prices will be changed, according to the time spent. Basically - up. You may hate me as much as you want.
4) since I was a nowice and I had no reputation or faith in my skills, I didn't ask for prepayments. However, this got me into a situation, where one of my drawings, finished half a year ago is still not paid for.
As I said once, I'm willing to work for free only if you give me a shelter, bed, food and maybe some pocket money. So, from now on - prepayments only. Gonna rewrite the entire "commission rules" section soon.
5) you may override any of the statements before (excl. #4), using lots of money. Yes, I'm a $$$ bitch. Deal with it.
6) to keep your interest in me and to offer you an option to get arts by hooves, I'm gonna do lots of YCH auctions in the future. That also solves the problem of "same scenes in a row" thing, since I decide which scene that would be.
7) mostly I'm gonna concentrate on emotional and almost SFW art. However, I'm not gonna fully forget about NSFW things. I'm just gonna make them more interesting. Like here. Even if stats whoe that you still like casual fucking more.
8) the easiest way for you to get free art is to make me: a) watch you - b) become a fan of you - c) get into my bed. Yes, I'm this kind of bitch too. Can't guarantee anything though.
Also. Since I'm gonna concentrate on more safe things (and, for example, for youtube "a drawing of horse, fucking feline" is not safe at all), I have thoughts about reorganising my Patreon from "monthly" to "by item" and share my videos with the common public. However, that's not for me to decide. So, we'll see about that later.
***
Otherwise - I'm still here, I'm still drawing, and this is good. Maybe I'm gonna disappoint you, maybe I'm not. I'm just gonna do what I like and by that - entertain you.
That's all. Thanks for your attention. And thanks for being with me!

Second, I am curious about the one "rule". How does a person "make" you watch them? I'm guessing that it would require the person be a visual artist of impeccable quality, but are there any other reasons that you would watch someone? Just curious.
As for the "rule", yes, I'm usually willing to draw interesting pieces for those, who I watch and which characters I like. Otherwise (if a person is not an artist or crafter or any type of creative person), the easiest way to get something from me is to get close to me. The easiest way to do it - throught my bed, lol.
I'll come up with something good and fun, don't you worry about that! :3
