Move, Commissions, and personal update!
7 years ago
Long time no update. Oops. The move to AZ went well and we've finally fully settled in our new home. I know i've said it before but I really can't thank you guys enough for the support. We wouldn't have been able to make this move work without Those who had commissioned me. ;; <3
Update regarding existing commissions-
I've /Almost/ got all my MFF take home queue cleared and will be doing a mass printing/mailing in the next two weeks so i can move onto my TFF orders and the aquarium YCH i posted in december. I unfortunately had issues with the airlines having destroyed much of my luggage going to and from the convention, resulting in most of my TFF commissions forms being water damaged and nearly illegible due to the ink bleeding. I was able to make out a good chunk of them with the help of a friend and will be contacting everyone to confirm and update any incorrect information soon. If you already see your card on my trello and see an issue with the information on your card please feel free to reach out to me on Telegram ( Username @ HighYote ) or email ( FruitCupPup @ yahoo . com ) and i'll respond as soon as possible and fix everything for you. I should start sketching everyone's badges before the end of the month! c:

Update regarding new commissions-
Since i've been getting more notes about new coms than i can respond to, I wanted to just publically say that i'll be opening for a couple general commissions spots this week since its been a while. I don't have a set day quite yet but it'll be sometime this week for sure! c:
Please remember that i don't accept new commissions outside of /Journal and Tweet Announced/ openings and private rush orders discussed via email. If you would like a commission once i announce that i'm open, I'll have a google form up and open that i get your information through, not notes. These openings are /not/ first come first served as i want to select projects that grab my interest and i know i can bring to life successfully for the commissioner, so patience after sending in the form would be greatly appreciated. ;u;
Small personal update-
Firstly I want to apologize to everyone for how slow progress with art has been this last month and a half. The cross country move had me completely unable to work for nearly two weeks and then being offered TFF dealers space right after getting settled has left me a little behind as i was away from my computer for 5 additional days for the con. I'm doing my absolute best to catch up on everything while maintaining the quality of my work and i greatly appreciate how wonderful you've all been with me despite the minor delays.
I kinda want to mention that I /just/ lost my two oldest rats (both due to old age related issues and the two having been so strongly bonded that after the first one passed, the second one became severely depressed. Despite everything we did to help the second one, he stopped fighting and soon joined his brother on the other side of the rainbow bridge). Because of this i've been taking a few days for myself to process everything, take care of myself mentally, get my boys cremated, and make sure my 6 younger rats all remain physically/ emotionally well after losing two cage mates. I'll to continue to chip away at work but would greatly appreciate if friends could be a little patient with me regarding slower replies for a couple days. I promise i'm not upset at anyone and i'll get back to you guys as soon as i'm feeling upto it. <3
so ye, tldr;

I do wish that your luck will turn around soon because it sounds like its hasn't been going well at all. But yes your life and family come first. Sending good vibes and prayers your way <3
(And I really don't mind if this means waiting a bit for that YCH.)
I'm also glad everything went well and that you're taking care of yourself! :)
