Commission Revamp v2!
6 years ago
Howdy everyone!
Yeah, it's been slow again, apologies! However, I've been workin on something very important: My commission prices!
My prices beforehand were based on time spent on my work over a year ago. While it was fine for that time, I have since then been spending more time on my work, adding more details and generally improving the quality (as i hope you guys can see). While improving your work is always good, it came with a downside: Time. I was spending so long on commissions I was working for 4-5 bucks an hour in the best of situations. ^^;;
I've been meaning to update my prices for a while, but I was really hesitant to, as I feel awful and nervous raising prices, especially by such a dramatic amount. However, I think these new prices are much, much more fair, since, after talking with many people and confronting myself about it, I was undercharging myself way, way too much. ;v;''
My updated prices can be found in my commission info tab as well as my commission info journal!
As you'll notice, they're much, much higher than previous. ^^;;; I'm so sorry for such a dramatic increase, but again, after I rip this bandaid of increased prices off, I think I'll feel much better for not undercharging for my work.
However, I do have plans in the works for some cheaper commissions! I may be doing in-stream commissions sometime soon! ;Y ( For those who caught my stream a couple weeks ago, it'll be around that quality and speed! :V ) It'll really depend on interest and time! (Which I'll soon have much more of since summer vaycay is barrelin towards us real soon >:D)
After I get responses from those on my waitlist, I'll be opening commissions again! Thank you everyone for your stellar patience and understanding as always! ;___; <3<3

FA+

Also I'd definitely be interested in in-stream stuff potentially in the future!
And that's wonderful to hear!! ;<; I had a lot of fun on that stream, and would love to do more! I might have one more requests one to see if I can do that quality of work with more consistency, so I have more confidence of doing them in a commission/OC-drawing setting!
and yeah that's fair about the streams! I'd love to catch it if I'm able to when you do it.
Keep up the good work! Definitely thinkin' about commissioning you sometime. :D
I'll probably put out a journal announcement when they open up!
Ima be honest with you, me and my mate love your stuff, and out of curiosity I decided to check your prices (coincidentally today)
Your prices are still SUPER fair considering what other artists charge for comparably wonderful work! Don't feel bad about the new pricing, not one bit! I hope to catch you with commissions open one day <3
I can't imagine what you were charging before, but it must have been rough, too many people wanting art you weren't getting paid enough for ;w;
Yeah, I was charging about....half or a third less than what I am now, hahA;;;;;.....It was my own gosh dang fault for pricing that way, but yeah it wasn't that fun x__x;;;
I'm just glad that it seems like this went okay? That there's still interest in my stuff? ;_;'' It's really really encouraging and relieving.....
