All my plans for 2018, theres a lot.
8 years ago
Hello people whats is up? i hope you all had a great holiday this year. I just wanted to give you guys an update over whats happening to me now and my flans going forward in the future. There's a lot to read here so ill just sort it into category's.
First off...
𝐍𝐄𝐖 𝐉𝐎𝐁
That's right, after being unemployed for 2 years I'm finally working at a grocery store currently as a meat clerk like my last job. I was fired from the last one because my managers just outright refused to teach me any skills that would help me aid customers to the fullest. I wish i was joking but eventually there were enough complaints about me not being able to do certain things like cutting meats for example that eventually they let me go and i was jobless ever since. Shortly after i decided to give college a try in 2016 but... it really wasn't for me, it ended up being a complete waste of time and money (that I didn't have) at the time. it just reminded me just how much i hated school and homework again. So what was keeping something in my pockets were just doing commissions which brings me to...
𝐂𝐎𝐌𝐌𝐈𝐒𝐒𝐈𝐎𝐍𝐒
So currently I still have quite a list that I owe at the moment still, some small and some larger. I feel really bad because some people have been waiting ages for their pieces and I've just kept pushing them back for various reasons. sometimes I have to go out of order because some more recent buyers get more impatient than earlier buyers so I have to make the hard choice to do theirs first. Ultimately its my fault and I take full responsibility. See since I was without a job I took on as many as I thought I could do but after a while id find myself burnt out and uninspired all the time. Then of course I had that appendicitis that really didn't help when I was at that time planning to knock out a bunch.
I let down a bunch of people and some people didn't even want me to finish and that just hit me really hard and woke me up, I need to just stop F%&ing around and just get the sh#t done like I promised. Now that im working about 4 days a week it eats up a lot of my time and energy. so untill i finish the list im going to try and work on coms on every day i have off. i already did like 3 pictures the last 2 days. i will also being changing my Commission TOS and prices as well. prices in the commission tab are the current prices now.
I'm going to perhaps take on less work now that i don't have to rely soley on coms for income now.
𝐆𝐄𝐍𝐄𝐑𝐀𝐋 𝐀𝐑𝐓
At some point once the majority of coms are done I'm going to do more personal work again. I don't draw as much for myself anymore because it makes me guilty i should be working on something i owe. I know the majority of you watch me for my characters and thats really what i want to bring more to you guys. Short stories, hot pin ups, character development etc. Over the years ive had hundreds of ideas ive had yet to do mainly because drawing for myself doesn't pay the bills. (but i guess thats why i have a part time job now). I also want to give animating a try. I bought this neat little program called wallpaper engine off steam which lets you download or create moving desktop wall papers for you PC and it really made me want to start making animations. Iv'e been saying it for years but i just never know where to begin. i totally recommend wallpaper engine btw its really awesome and its only 4$. But ill dabble in that once I save up and buy a new more powerful PC Rig.
I might also make some "ONE OFF" characters. just some new characters with popular species that people can smutt with if they wanted to. Maybe they might even go up for adoption who knows.

Ooooh boy the dreaded P word... I know this is a sore and touchy subject for some of you and if you're not into supporting people using it, thats totally fine. But hear me out and let me gets some ideas out here before you judge.
The kinds of art you see here on this site Will NOT be paywalled. All the usual little pinups and commissions i post will be pretty much the same. nor will i post super low res 720p and below pictures. at most you'll just see harmless nudges to my patreon in the disciption.
*I'll have one tier where you'll be able to see Wips of personal work about a week before anyone else.
*Another tier were you also get a 3-4k version and the psd of the file so you can see for yourself how it was made.
*and lastly the final tier where you get everything above but you will get to vote and receive exclusive sexy wallpaper pinups (maybe some wallpaper engine compatible) of various characters and a 20% discount on future commissions while subscribed.
I was thinking of having people fund smutty comics... but eh we'll see how the first stuff goes for now.
Now when will this kick off? I'm aiming for February perhaps or whenever I get the new PC.
If you were ever interested in supporting my work let me know what you think of the plan so far, or give me suggestions on prices, content, etc.
Anyway that's all for now, I love you all and hope you have a rocking 2018.
