In serious need of money for rent/need feedback
6 years ago
My rent is due today and i am in dire need to take some commissions ;-; i'll draw anything pretty much...
Prices and queue are here, i currently only have 2 on my queue https://trello.com/b/By6B4LGi/manly.....an-commissions and my Ko-fi is here Ko-fi.com/manlychan
The question to my watchers: what kinds of adopts or offers (like ych etc) do you want to see from me? Im still trying to figure out what to do for a steadier income while i continue searching for a part/full time job. I hate having to rely on this alone for a means of living right now, but i have no other choice. I really want to start working on art for my personal enjoyment again, like comics of my own characters, drawing things for friends, making fan art/merch for cons, and just exploring with painting and what not..i feel creatively constipated with how things are now.
But freelance work is all i have until i do find a sturdy job, and its been very stressful...
Been considering ko-fi gold or patreon but i have no idea what people want to see from me? Im still a new artist to the scene with a lot of growing to do..im lucky to have been noticed even slightly, i feel like i have so much to learn. Which is great!! But. Its at times like these where i feel bummed about the content i create because its not good enough, or its not reaching? Streams have been more dead than they used to be, commissions have slowed significantly, and adopts are hard to sell at all. Im overthinking and feeling down, any constructive feedback would be appreciated greatly. y__y Thank you

I would love that!!


You could try multistreaming with other artists? :) Maybe it would be fun and effective.

I'm going to start doing this! Multi-streams are more fun anyway ^^

I like YCH's and sometimes "artistic freedom" commissions. You know me though; I'll always buy adopts if I have the money!

Artistic freedom is my absolute favorite, i love being able to experiment! Someone else mentioned YCHs too, i'll try doing them more :O And i def need to spend less time on adopts
