Burnt out/sad
4 years ago
I pushed a little harder than I thought getting adopts out this past week or so cause I’m terrified to not have money again
I think I’m okay, but I’m more burnt out than I thought
Each recent design I’ve fought to put out and they are NOT my best work and it hurts cause I know I can do better and I’m just not slowing down to try to improve the designs
I’m sorry if I’ve been slow to respond to messages I’ve been in and out of bed trying to avoid getting in my head and becoming more sad
At worst this sorta burn out moves in a few days!!
It would mean the world to me if you showed me dream designs you’d love to own (not mine) just beautiful characters, unique species and more to maybe spark some interest because I feel like I’ve hit a wall :(
With love, Poss

As for unique characters, here's my booboo, Divina the aqua dragon! <3 I'm in love with her color scheme and I can honestly saw ive never seen another design quite like hers! ^^

As far as inspo goes, maybe try your hand at some new aesthetics and play around with those? Things like cottage-core, fairy-kei, pastel-goth, hospital-core, ect.
I’ll totally look into cottage core and I’ve never heard of fairy-kei? But I do want to try new stuff for sure if I can find good mood boards
And fairy-kei is a really cute type of Japanese street fashion! Suuuper cute and fluffy so the stark shift in style might help with some creative moods!
Personally, I wish I was able to help buy buying your adopts and all ;;
I am subbed to your Patreon, however! And lemme tell you, you are a wonderful artist who is going to become so much more eventually!
Just to give you some quick easy ideas on how to get some money up after you rest for a while (please.... rest ;; ), I'd suggest maybe doing maybe some set priced sketchy headshots or something. And only take a few slots so you can make sure you're comfortable with doing that!
Or maybe make newer bases PTU for a bit. I definitely would buy them ;;
Id also suggest, if you have one, use toyhouse to post adopts too!
There is so many different options to all this. But please, do YOURSELF a favor and rest for a week or so, come up with ideas and then blast off! I'm sure you can do it!!
NOT TO MENTION~ once people start getting their taxes back, it makes for more chances to sell adopts. So it's not the end yet. You got this, Poss!
Best of luck! ~HVSH
I may try the headshots again for sure once I finish some customs I owe and a few sketch commissions I’ve taken on ^^
I’m certainly going to try to get rest this weekend while I can
And do people use toy house for adopts? I have one but I wasn’t sure at all if people posted that sorta stuff?
And ooo I hope so I have no clue what time of the year people get taxes in but I’ll keep that in mind thank you ^^ 💛
You got this!
As for dream designs, here's one of mine!!

I'm a sucker for heavenly demonic things, and this one is gorgeous.
My next adopt pose could be perfect for something of that nature :o
I got some time this weekend to clear it up some and I’m feeling much better 💛
