Some news, besides another epic comeback haha I guess
6 years ago
Okay so, I'll try being kinda brief about it;
For starters I guess I'm back, still not exactly very fast at posting but I should be around here again. It's been a couple heavy weeks so I didn't really get to draw much lately anyways, but now might be a good moment to get back on track.
Of course, I'm still gonna continue Gille's comic, I have most of it planned ahead of time, but like I said I haven't got to draw much of it so progress will depend mostly on how the week goes.
And now the bad news is that uhh, I need to close commissions because some sort of emergency; Waht emergency you ask? Well, Paypal is being really goddamn stupid that's why lmao
Long story short, mexican Paypal now forces the recieved money to automatically be converted in the needed currency and go to the people's bank account(s) and therefore you're not only charged a fee for receiving money like all people do, but now we also take obligatory fees from Paypal for automatically converting that money in MXN and sending it to the bank account, without counting the fee from the bank itself to withdraw said money; They're being kinda cryptic about the consequences about not adding the bank account but they've made 2 things pretty clear: you will be fucked, and you have until September 25.
The point is, I have no bank account (yet) so I literally just can't receive payments. It was in the plans before, yeah, but didn't really expect to be rushed to do it.
So with this whole shitshow going on I'm left with 2 things to do:
-Close commissions until I can actually like, y'know, sell them.
-Change prices again, more likely raise them.
(just for reference, an exaggerated and rough idea on how much this affects the price, let's say that if I got $5 usd [$100MXN aprox] and I'm discounted the fee from receiving it wich is let's just say $24mxn, then another $3mxn from the currency conversion, and then like $20mxn from the bank itself for withdrawing the money, wich would leave me in the end with $53mxn wich is half from what I initially had; since the fees are fixed, if the prices are higher I wouldn't be loosing a significant part of my money like I would with $5 like this example)
So yeah it's pretty sad, I was even starting to put together a new commission sheet with updated images of my new artworks I've been doing with the new graphic tablet unlike the previous sheet, but it seems I'll have to do the math again for those prices before I post it. Welp.
Anyways I think that's all for now? I'll >>try<< posting often here again, specially post a couple things I actually got done recently.
Special thanks to my man Sky for being around and keeping me happy through these messy weeks btw, love ya dud<3

Sorry man, I hope the thing gets sorted or your find a different method of transaction like Payoneer/Stripe or something else while it's sorted.
