Back in Business
5 years ago
With July done and most of the comms out of the way, I believe it is time to open back up again. The break was nice and relaxing and was able to do some fun stuff along the way. There is still some stuff i need to do but for the most part, they are pretty minor.
Aside from the obvious art dump, I went ahead and added on to the commission info to include things that I have done in the past in case some were interested in that. That is pretty much it for the a round up, not really much to say. Now to what is important I would assume.
{TL;DR - The "List" is having some changes, you can see them on the list right now. Giving myself an easy day on Wednesday to enjoy myself}
So let me be frank, commissions will be handled a lil differently to accommodate a couple of things that I have noticed so far, but the LIST covers it I hope. Commissions are back to 6 slots and they will be handled like normal, but the method about it is changing. Before, I had it to where I would do one after another and so long as another comm was requested if there was a slot open, I would keep the rhythm going with no stop in between. This led to some potential burn outs but not enough to stop me completely. This time, when all 6 slots are filled, I will not take any more comms until those 6 are done and once they are done I will take a day off to cool down. during that time I may do personals or do some fanart, etc. After the break I will work on the comms again. During that break time I can queue up commission requests so that when I get back you will be up and ready.
Animations are new to the list of things and so far it doesn't look too bad for my first animation comm. Animation is pretty tedious but it has always been something I wanted to do, but unlike one of my friends, I'm not really there yet in terms of consistency so my work may look off at random times. I will be doing these along side the image based comms to, as the saying goes "kill two birds with one stone." I will only be taking 2 animation comms at a time and they will be done in the order they were requested. Just like above I will take a break, but instead of doing it after the set are done, I will instead take a break from animation for a day or two(depending on how i feel mentally) to avoid burning out.
Last but not least, I just want to make this for my self because I tend to do work day in and day out for the past two months, But starting the first of August, Wednesdays are going to my free days. Not saying it is going to be a break day as I will still do comms on that day, but rather I will work on them for a set amount of time then set it aside to to relax some. This shouldn't shake things up too much, but there has been times when i just wanted to stop mid comm, so this should help. Weekends are a bit iffy. I'll keep them 50/50 as there will be times i can work on comms and the times i can not.
And that's about it. Have also been streaming a lot as of late and so far it has been pretty fun. met some new folks and got to a bit more comfortable with talking to people casually. So if you ever want to hop in I'll drop the notifier at least 2-3 times a week(once i get a new banner made first). Other than that, Thank you for sticking by and enjoying the work I have put out. I am really touched to see how everyone is viewing them and interacting with it so far. I hope that I can do more with these or even do a collab with others here and there, but that is for another time. Until then, be safe and look out for one another.

I'd say these changes are pretty smart all around, very good of you to make sure you have some guaranteed time to take breaks. Honestly I had no idea how constantly we were working so remember we can wait, just don't burn yourself out!
