Update on me
9 years ago
Havent been on here in a while and im sorry about that, just havent had any work to share or anything. I do need to update you guys on whats going on with me.
I didnt really want to go to far into personal stuff, but its only fair to you guys, especially those who had pending commissions.
Basically the roomate situation completely fell through for a number of reasons, including the landlord increasing our rent for several hundred dollars and removing the program that helped low income renters. So I had no choice but to move back in with with dad. Ive been sleeping on his couch for the past couple months.
Ive been attempting to search for a job the whole time and havent even been called for an interview yet.
I know I have a couple people who had commissions that I wasnt able to finish before I had to move. Originally I was going to be able to finish those since the plan had been to stay in my old apartment where I had space to work.
I do plan to refund all of you as soon as I can, but right now I have no money to do so. As soon as I DO get a job that first paycheck will mostly go to that.
I am horribly sorry that I haven't been able to complete those or refund everyone sooner.
I could possibly open drawing commissions? I do still have access to my tablet and I have a Picarto so i could even stream for you guys.
Though Im not sure how I feel about taking commissions to refund other commissions..... that seems.....I dunno it doesn't quite feel right, but im running out of options and this is at least something I know I can do.
Ive done one or two drawing commissions for food money but aside from that not much.
I'd like to know your opinions and interest in that. If that seems ok with everyone then I can go ahead and set up examples and such for that.
To those of you that have been stuck waiting. Im sorry and thank you so much for the patience you've had. Youve been great and I hope to get everything resolved soon.
(edit: If I post drawings should I make a different account for just those so that anyone following for my costumes doesnt get stuck seeing a bunch of what they didnt follow for? Or should I just post here?)

"I think doing drawing commissions would be a good idea, at least until you're [able] to find a job. "
That way progress for refunds are being made at the very least.
ETA: But if it's a concern go ahead with the new account.
My first thought upon reading this was 'omg, you can totally stay here and just pay the rent with creatures.' :D
Please contact me back though cause I haven't heard anything thanks
For those who have smaller commissions for simple things like hand paws... why can't you just and sew those while you have the free time to do so?
Really doesn't take a lot of space to do that (I barely have any room to work on a partial for myself, and managing to make arms just fine,) and it might save you from having to refund a ton of folks....
Best you can do is the occasional journals saying 'I'm here situation is the same' etc.
I don't think most folks understand just how much space and just how dangerous some of the materials we work with can be!! (Hell I'm allergic to half the stuff I use and reactions to the others >.>) I'm working out of my bedroom again and it's got to the point of a narrow strip of carpet is my access route! I know just how impossible space wise it is from just a couch!
Hopefully things get a lot better for you sooner!!
