Ah, well this bites.
I was informed by text that I've been fired from my job delivering pizzas.
The reason? I was "caught on camera" taking a paper cup. :/
[small work rant]
Yes, so we're allowed unlimited fountain sodas but touch a paper cup and you're GONE, you dirty cup touching sicko. How will the company ever withstand the 3 cent hit to its bottom line?! Oh wait, I was also written up for not putting a trash bag in a can in October. Oh the humanity! You know how much of an inconvenience it was to put that bag in AND fill out all this disciplinary paperwork, you delinquent scumsucker? Next thing you know you'll be shitting on customers' food and pissing in every paper cup individually! But you know, they're right. The company has "standards" I guess. That and I'm completely expendable and worth less than a goddamn paper cup but it's ok...
[/small work rant]
Anyways, I'm trying not to freak out too much because it's just a pizza job that I wasn't getting enough hours at anyways. I suppose I could walk into another pizza place tomorrow and get another pizza delivery job. But I was already needing another job badly due to lack of hours. Now I either need 2 part time jobs or 1 really good full time job, but due to the unyielding weight of bills always pressing down on me, time is not a luxury I have. Nor is money unfortunately. :(
So I'm going to open up for some Emergency Commissions.
I know I owe people commissions already (and I'm still good for those), but I 100% promise I'll have these done as soon as possible, in the coming months. I've been grinding over on Patreon (some of the results I'll be posting here finally), so I have been active. I just will have to prioritize my time better. Once things fall into place, with steady effort I think I can do just that.
So I'd like to take a few commissions. Pretty much everything is on the table and I will take as many as I can get.
Here are base prices (note some are slightly cheaper than normal prices because circumstances)
Feel free to discuss your idea with me if it varies from what's listed here.
NSFW/Adult work is extra. How much extra varies. Maybe $5 extra for sketch, $20 extra for full render. More than one character, same applies, as well as extra character costs (around half of the cost for 1 char for each additional). Some things may be custom price or case by case. Ask me if you have any questions!
Sketch: $10 (waist up), $15 (full body) - Example 1, Example 2, Example 3
Ink: $20 (waist up), $25 (full body) - Example 1, Example 2
Flat Color: $30 (waist up), $35 (full body) +$5 basic background (more complex, ask) - Example 1, Example 2, Example 3
Cell Shade: $40 (waist up), $45 (full body) +$5 basic background (more complex, ask) - Example 1, Example 2, Example 3, Example 4
Fully Rendered: $50 (waist up), $60 (full body) +$10 basic background, (more complex, ask) Example 1, Example 2, Example 3
Colored Headshot Icons (w/ shading) $15 - Example 1, Example 2, Example 3
Animated Flail Icon: $15 static, $20 animated Example 1, Example 2, Example 3
Rectangular Badges $25 - Example 1, Example 2
Shaped Badges $35 - (waist up shot with name)
Full Body Badges $45 (full body, shaped badge with name)
Yearbook Photo: $25 (Example 1, Example 2... color and b/w. Some props extra)
So yeah, if there's anything you've ever wanted me to draw for you, now would be a good time to act. Again, I will prioritize these commissions so that hopefully most of them (or all) will be done in the next few months.
I thank you all greatly, and any commissions or spreading the word would be great! I hope these funds will help pay a bill or two that I otherwise wouldn't be able to pay, or put food on the table until I get my job situation worked out (which I hope is really soon).
Also, if monthly support for extra bonus content is more your thing (and the possibility of winning FREE ART) head over to My Patreon and see if you might be interested in a small monthly donation! The new billing cycle (and new content) is approaching fast! Every little bit helps and also encourages me to create more. :)
Thanks everyone.... I'll get through this. Hopefully.

I recently saw a video on a bunch of truck models. Outside of the Wal-Mart fleet, they all were listing auto driver as a feature. Good and/or bad, depending on how things go.
While I Do like sitting in them when they're not moving, and if I can get my legs to move close enough to get into it....
In the end it's just not good.
And even if Jt were to do it alone, I'd have no way to get to work, and I'd be left alone here with my...thoughts. And that is just not a good idea. [we live WAY out in the woods, while there are neighbors, I don't trust them. So i would really be alone.]
Am reminded of one guy's story, though. He worked fast food. Something like this went down and the boss fired him. What did he do? Showed up the next day for his shift. And pulled it off. Screwed up, again. Fired, again. Showed up and just kept on working. He said the place was so short staffed that they didn't follow through with the boss's orders, since he showed up in spite of the boss.
touch a paper cup?
what is one cup worth? 1/100th of a cent??
GET REAL!!
Obviously the place isn't worth it, so it's obviously a move for the better.
I hope you find someplace new to work at soon..
BTW, I remember you driving a taxi. Ever thought about being a delivery courier?
They haven't reached your area yet, but Amazon uses couriers in bigger cities.
Thanks for your thoughts and support. :3
