Something thats been bothering me lately
9 years ago
Been pondering if I should take requests again as the *sorta* secrete Stone Artist Challenge.
I've been on the fence about this for more or less 2 weeks now, and I'm still sightly reluctant. If I open requests, I'd hate to burn myself out, but at the same time I feel like doing it not only to be slightly more productive, but also to draw something more original. It would probably be great practice too. After all I always wanna improve.
So I don't know. Should I ? I mean if I try that challenge again, I would be in a deep risk to disappoint everyone. I don't want to feel like I disappointed anyone again. Plus I feel like a lair if i accept a request and then just announce that I gave up again.
So what do you all think ? Should I reopen to take requests again ?
Unrelated question: How do art trades work ?

But really, if you'd like to take requests you should feel more than free to do so, your art is amazing and taking on some ideas from others can always be a nice way to practice new things and characters. Just don't take too many at once and give yourself time to rest and work on your own projects as well.
I personally would love to request something from you, myself~ I adore your work and if you do decide to open them up in the future I'd love to ask for one from ya if you wouldn't mind.
This time though I'll try not to beat myself over it.
And Suhayll, my memory's horrid so I can't rightly recall what happened previously. But whatever it was don't let it weigh you down. Everyone makes mistakes and you're only one person, you can't do everything and everyone learns their limits through trial and error, it's how we learn, and it's part of life. Just take it slow at first, maybe like.. three requests and do them on your own time whenever -you- feel like working on them. No time limits, no obligations, just fun practice that will make someone's week when you've finished with it~
Just don't push yourself and have fun with it, alrightys? *Huggles* =3
You're only one person and a mortal being at that. If someone expects perfection from you, well then they have some issues. Don't let it weigh you down, Suha, I've been down that path many times.
Tldr: yes you should because you're a cool dude
