Not doing art for my Birthday or for a while =[
9 years ago
General
I was working on another undertale pic and a few pokemon ones but I had some commissioners come to be me expressing their frustration that I've been taking so long in getting to their commissions (it's been a year).
Before you ask, no, I don't take payment up front. I took 20 slots and to my regret I didn't tell them that I may or may not get to them since I can only really handle only 3 or so every few months before I get overwhelmed.
It's been around 5 months and my drawing inspiration just started to come back since school really drained me this last half a year. Now having to deal with their unhappiness in me, I find it hard to even draw anything. I've tried to explain my lack of interest in doing commissions right now to them but they won't take no for an answer.
I've considered just cancelling the whole list but it still weighs heavy on my mind. It really does suck being a nice guy =\. So for now, I'm not going to post anything or work on anything for awhile. I just can't being myself to draw at all since I have to get those coms done.
Yeah, I'm going to be sad that I won't be able to work on anything for my birthday and show it to you guys but I guess that's just how things are going to be until I can find the will and time to do commissions. I just feel too guilty working on my own projects right now.
So yaaay! Here's to the crappiest celebration of my life on the 16th ^u^ at least on FA haha. Still, I will deeply appreciate any birthday wishes you guys can send me <=3. Thanks so much guys.

FA+

I right now, I'm doing a good birthday present. And it's very special.
I'm lucky to have a friend like you ^^. You don't have to make me a present but I deeply appreciate it =3
Merry Day of your Birth :P
I have quite a few art friends who agree with me on this. Drawing something for yourself and drawing something for a commissioner invokes different levels of motivation XD.
Thanks for the reply. I appreciate all the sympathies you have given to me =]. It means a lot. And thanks for the wishes hehe ^^
Also, happy almost birthday~
Thanks man. I cant' tell you how much birthday wishes mean to me ^^
You're a FINE artist, one of my all-time favorites, and it'll be sad not seeing pics of gigantic Leslie boobs in the near future
But, on a different note: happy birthday, felllow Leo! We're 2 1/2 weeks apart, and I say make the most of it! Don't have it be your crappiest: go out with a BANG!
I don't know what it's like to want art from me haha
And thanks Aman =]. I don't know...maybe I'll do something. not sure just yet X3
Yeah ^^. Leo's forever XD. Yeah that's true. my 26th birthday only comes once XD
I suppose I will try to do something for me. Find the motivation somehow XD
Thanks Drakkece. I greatly appreciate your time and feedback =3
Some people just don't get that artists and other creatives ARE NOT MACHINES.
And it's not like they paid you at all, so they haven't actually LOST anything, and so they have next to nothing to complain about really.
Try and have a Happy Birthday anyway.
And that's the reason why I never take money up front. I don't like owing people XD. But who knows, people think they deserve their art now i guess.
And thanks a lot =3. I will try ^^
I think i'm never going to have a list that long ever again. I just wanted to give people a chance to queue up. And well, this is what I get XD
And thanks a lot bud ^^
*floofle*
B-but...happy early birthday though. *hugs* \;n;/
And thanks a lot man ^^. I appreciate the love =3
Aaaww no problem! I always admire you and I always love your work! Take all of my love! <:3
I think I will just put them off until i feel like doing it. I think they are lucky to even have a spot since I feel like just quitting coms altogether. Just isn't fun for me right now. Even though someone wanted me to work on their com regardless of how i feel about it XD
aww, thanks man =]. You don't have to draw me anything(especially me getting back to you pretty late with this). But I can't stop you ^^. Regardless, I greatly appreciate the offer, the advice, and the birthday wishes =]. Thanks man ^^
Still, happy early birthday to you, dude. :v
I know that feeling waaaay too well. It's just sad that my art drive was killed by my commissioners D:
And thanks a lot ^^ I appreciate the wishes =3
but I greatly appreciate it so damn much man *hugs*
Also dude, I am gonna make something for ya. I mean its tradition now to do so for birthdays now, and I already have the idea set (\o.=.o/) You keep doing you okay?
We gotta hang in there man. No matter what crap comes our way lol. And thanks man =]. I'll look forward to seeing it ^^
Plus I do believe you did state that you only due a few at a time so you don't get overwhelmed in a couple of journals.
I think I remember reading something like that in a few of the journals dealing with this. .w.;;;
Happy early Birthday to you! Don't let naggers get to you D:
In this case, they shot themselves in the foot. I can't force myself to do them any more because of their requests killed my motivation. I guess I'm not the only one who lost out on this XD
Thanks man. I'll try not to ^^;;. Thanks for replaying <:3
Nothing you can do about it because it isn't going to stop, only time does.
Or friends have no part in it and continue to be the friend you knew.
You just have to roll with it.
Also happy birthday.
Thanks for the reply Lizzie. I really appreciate it ^^. And thanks for the birthday wishes =3
And thanks Let =]. I forgot that you guys even bother with someone like me haha. It is appreciated regardless ^^
they cant come and crit u. if there not happy they can just leave.
i think thats fair.
also happy freaking late birthday man ^^
