An Update on Commissions and When I Reopen
4 years ago
General
First off, I cant tell you how happy I am that this fandom has made me. I never thought I'd be sharing my cute and kinky art online, nor could I ever imagine seeing so much love for it. Thank you all for the love and support, it's been very uplifting and motivating. I also love reading all the comments y'all have to say on my drawings!
I'm excited so many enjoy my work and want a commission form me. However, in all that excitement I have overwhelmed myself. I am new to doing commissions and with that has brought some learning experiences. So I wanted to touch on some key things as well as update y'all on what to expect when I reopen for commissions.
Additionally, I am a slow artist. I work a full time normal job and I do these drawings in my off hours. I want to get faster, but I also like pushing myself and exceeding expectations. Because of this, I believe my skill has improved significantly, but my speed has not. I still end up spending way too much time on a drawing as I only want to give you the best drawing I can.
1. I have not been very transparent about what commissions I am doing and I must apologize about leaving people in the dark not knowing when their place will come up. I will have an active Trello that will be up to date so that you may view your place in queue.
2. I have a hard time saying no. I have told people that I would add them to a wait list when I should have said no. I don't like turning people down, but with the significant amount of demand for commissions, its not humanly possible for me to do all of them.
I bit off more than I could chew and have overwhelmed myself. My inability to reject commissions has led to me making a wait list. I should not have done this as Ive told people that I would get to their ideas, when in reality, I am not comfortable with their idea or I am just not motivated to ever draw that idea.
3. This is hard for me to say, but I will be cancelling the wait list and stick to a set number of commissions when I reopen. If I have told you I will keep your idea for later, I genuinely do apologize. The wait list was quite long and I ended up getting quite overwhelmed by it.
I do have a few commissions that I have started, I will be continuing those. I will also be messaging everyone individually who was waiting to let them know that I will be canceling their spot in the wait list.
This is also why I will stick to an updated Trello to let people know of their place in line in the future, rather than keeping it unknown.
4. I will be raising prices a little bit, probably will be 135 USD for colour with a discount for multiple characters.
5. August 20th Is when I will reopen for commissions! I will keep them open for the weekend and select the ones I like from those submitted. To keep myself from being overwhelmed, I will only be accepting 10. I will also accept 2 additional animated commissions. Animated prices TBA.
Sorry for the long post.

TLDR: Canceling my waitlist as I became overwhelmed by it and commissions will reopen AUG 20th for 10 slots
