Yo guys!

I wanted to give a heads up that commission prices were probably gonna change. I might take commission examples at some point in the next few months but I would like to get back into doing art.


I'm probably going to see about different opportunities job wise once my car is paid off and maybe... MAYBE see about making art/cosplay and conventions a full time thing!

...car paid off first though...

BUT YEAH

Hey guys! A more serious journal then normal.

I have a few commissions out at the moment, and most of them are art slaves. I wanted to give you all a heads up, I'll probably refund just about every commission I have out besides like one or two.

I'll be emailing you all in the next week regarding refunds and such. Ill refund you fully, except in the terms of the art slaves, I'll be refunding the amount of art I did not finish yet.

I feel bad just knowing it's been so long since I worked on your commissions and id love for you guys to be able to use the money towards other artists or such!


Hopefully I'll be good to do more commissions in the near future but I think I'll limit myself to one at a time :)

Does anyone know any good donation sites to use? I want to start getting my cosplay sets at least set up for donations. Problem is I don't know really of any donation sites besides Kofi, so I was wondering if anyone knows of any others? :)

Thanks! <3

Decided on Kofi after all thanks!

look im not dead lol!!

I have a few questions id love you guys to answer <3

1)how would you guys feel about me doing a monthly commission slot? aka I would only take on 1 commission a month and not take another until that 1 was done. I have a feeling I can only do about 1 commission a month so im wondering if this is an option you guys might think is ok? summer im pretty booked due to cons (convention season for me lasts about 3-4 months in the summer where I have a convention nearly every weekend)

2)COSPLAY QUESTIONS! So I'm getting more into cosplay and was wondering how you guys would feel if I was to do something just for my cosplays! I was thinking about doing lewds and such since I honestly enjoy that kind of thing (If you can't tell by the type of commission work I do lol). I don't know what I'd do, be it patreon or just take donations towards future cosplays or such, so I'd love to hear suggestions on that :D

3) should I post my con merch onto here? I do a lot of body pillows and I was wondering if maybe that would be stuff you guys might want to see :D

man im sorry for being so inactive XD

Like...time is flying by for me so horribly OAO

ill go to bed on Monday and wake up on Friday it feels lol

Just want you all to know i have not forgotten about my commissions and such, but if anyone is wanting refunds I should be able to do those starting mid next month ^^;

I have no real excuse besides I honestly might just be too busy to do any more then one or two commissions at a time .__.;;;;
which actually makes me upset cause I adore doing commissions lol!!!

anyway please dont hate me i havent forgotten you guys! QAQ

hey everyone!

My commission prices will be going up soon! not by too much but just enough to kinda balance the amount of time it takes me at this point!

I will also be offering body pillow commissions after the summer and once my master's arts are all done! <3

been preparing for two cons in a row i have one this coming weekend and the next so the last few weeks I have been trying to get stuff together @A@

I am so very thankful to all my commissioners who are so patient with me and understand I have a lot going on at home! <3

I love you all and thank you so much for the support <3 <3


I have a cosplay I have been working on that maybe ill upload to here as a thanks? :D

soooo yeah, im in a pinch really bad lol

basically I am offering 2 maybe 3 people the opportunity to by my master! (kinky right?)

I am offering 2 different kinds of options (all of these are for FULL BODY SHOTS OF 1 CHARACTER NO BG)

option 1 - 5 pictures like the examples below ($30-$35 worth each) for $125 USD (you save $25-$50 USD!) delivered over the span of 3-4 months.

http://www.furaffinity.net/view/24793086/
http://www.furaffinity.net/view/20979959/

I'll be taking 2-3 people for these since I'm in serious, serious need of money so If you are interested please note me and we can talk it out with payments or characters or such!

hey guys...

Yeah it has come to this sadly... So I am taking more iron artists as well as donations.. I am really struggling with money right now since my husband still has not found work. I am offering more iron artists I just ask that you please be patient since im also working over time at my normal job to try to get more money

iron artists here - http://www.furaffinity.net/view/25850527/

I am offering a body pillow commission - http://www.furaffinity.net/view/26379320/ and I am willing to work on the price if the character isnt too complicated!

now for the donation part... So If you really dont want to get a commission for me you can donate to me QvQ; I hate to ask but I am in desperate need of money so If you would like there are two options. You can send me like $5 or so on paypal being mykelann13(a)yahoo.com as a gift to friends or family but with no note please! the other option is patreon https://www.patreon.com/Mishi you can pledge like $1/month or so and also gain the perks of seeing works in progress and fun things! :D



if you can help in any way...thank you <3

you know like... You don't really know where you can move to? job wise, locations..etc.etc..

I'm kinda feeling that way. I have a full time job where i work 40/week stuffing being an assembler. I personally think I suck pretty bad at my job, I think I mess up a lot from not paying attention since im doing the same thing for 8-9 hours a day. You know, mix people's names up, forget to add something, those kinds of things. I don't think I'll be fired any time soon, since I'm not nearly as bad as some of the other people we have had in my 2 years there....so yeah, plus we got 2 people left to do the job so I doubt they will fire me within the next 6 months lol~! I just feel stuck there and i dont feel like im good at my job so it kinda brings you down, ya know?

I could find another job somewhere but this one is full time at 10/hour and i get benefits (granted, for $500/month but hey, I got them). Best I could probably find would be retail or something else but we all know those only hire at part time and offer pretty crap starting wages.

My husband still hasn't gotten a job (he was hired to work at amazon but hasn't heard back from him after passing everything so we got no clue what is going on or how much longer its gonna take...cause he is hired...)

so I'm kinda the only one supporting us atm and I gotta pay $1,600 in taxes to the irs becuase i didn't have enough tax taken out through the year....



I wish I could live in a world that I could just do commissions and conventions as my part of the income and my husband take the 9am-5pm like the old days when the economy wasn't shit.... and one person could work but support a household... I know people now that have full time jobs and can't even afford to live on their own...



eehh....end rant... I'm just kinda stressed at the moment lol. I hate when things get me down since I'd like to say I'm normally a pretty positive person..

hello all yall peeps :D

I am working don't worry lol! The iron artists will probably be started soon actually, I'm trying to knock out the larger commissions and do them in between.

Real life has been keeping me pretty busy, I am on a diet right now that is massively draining me of energy in hopes of getting close to that cosplay body I want lol!
Plus getting dentist things done...I hate the dentist so much....

but I wanted yall to know I am not skipping out on work, just when you work 42 hours a week it makes you pretty tired regardless.....add a diet and gym 4-5/7 days a week and your time is suddenly gone lol!!!

hey everyone, ill be off to Ikkicon 2017 (its a new years convention in Austin Texas)

If you are coming, come by and say hi! ill be at table A2

would anyone be interested in an iron artist? :D I wouldn't be able to start them until next year (like in a week lol) but I'd be interested in doing one again!

I would just want to know what you guys would be interested in! like, what would the price range be for everyone and is there any theme you think would be good/fun? :D

so....fucking 2017 am I right?

long story short... husband basically got fired today (suspended, but he over heard them saying they were gonna fire him).

yup.

We live in an apartment together (with roomies) and now until god knows when, im the sole income for me and him on my $10/h 40 hours a week job. yup, you guessed it, not enough to support 2 people. we have some savings, barely any but some...sooo this is where yall come in hopefully.

I don't take donations. I want to work for whatever money I receive from you guys.

I am going to be revamping my commission prices, examples, making everything as easy as possible to understand and to order.

this is just a heads up, but sometime today I will be posting an image saying emergency commissions and thats when you guys can order anything on my commission list! :)

(bit of a coffee addict anyway... drinking some now actually lol)

Hey guys!

So the large commissions are going well, I have one more I'm doing then I will have two examples of said commission type and I'd be able to tell if the price I have on them are accurate :)


I do plan to have this as a commission type that stays so I hope you guys look forward to the other one :)

yo peeps!

Holidays are coming up and I figured this was a good time to open up ONE large commission.

now I have no example of said commission type so someone is gonna get a good deal lol.
here are the basics details of the commission

It is a flat $150
-one character only
-full body
-this is a wing it, so I would be taking artistic freedom (you can give me a theme, like "halloween" or such)
-there will be a back ground but I can't speak as to how detailed it would be
-i can split the amount into payments :) <3

this commission type will take some time to complete. I will be putting 110% effort into this and I will be trying more dynamic poses and such. now because of this, I will be choosing one person to do the commission for. Whoever is chosen for this, you will be getting about $200 worth out of this commission for $150 but I would like it if you had complete trust in my judgment with this.

to apply for this commission, please send me an email, yes, an email, to snowmishibaricommissions[at]gmail.com

please include the following
-your FA name so I can link back to you when im done
-2-4 character references (please have these be as accurate as you can to your character)
-your theme. If you can't decide between themes feel free to list a few and i can choose :) <3

please know I will be more likely to take females over males, unless its a traaaaappp <3
please know I can send wips and what not to show you that I am working on it due to the amount of work it will be.
If you have any questions, please please ask!

Hey guys!

So I'm gonna try to participate in inktober the best I can lol. But since I can't find promts I like, I figured I'd ask you guys!!

Now I figure I'll do some fanart for this to make it fun. So please comment below some anime, games and comic characters I can do some fun pinups of! :D

Hey guys!

So a lot of artists offer....like 1 big commission type generally right? like something that price far higher then the rest...
Well I noticed I dont actually have a commission type that really offers my full... FULL dedication to..ya know?

I have tried to price my commissions at prices that most people can afford and is fair for me for my time. I dont actually have a commission type I offer that is a "ima spend DAYS on this thing and refine it as much as fucking possible" because I honestly dont think anyone could....afford that for one commission..?

So I was wondering... would anyone be willing to get said commission type from me, or at least see it? I would not feel right if I did it with an OC or a personal project of mine because I dont want the example to possibly be better then what my commissions would turn out like. (For example, I know my characters very well, im probably going to go and put more effort into an original piece of mine then a commission of a character I have no personal feelings towards)

So my question is... how would I go about figuring out said example? I could do a raffle but if I spend a total of... lets say 20 hours on the commission, i worked for free when I could have maybe done 4-5 smaller commissions in that time..

my idea for the image would more or less be painting it, aka no line art. would make for a very realistic outcome.
so far my closest example would be my harley print I did a looong time ago

hey guys, so I wanted to get some other cosplays QvQ

I aint gonna say anything like "ima be a cosplayer and be badass and a pro at it"
but im trying to be decent enough at it to where I can take photos and people be like "ah, that's a pretty good __" lol

I have some cosplays I want to get but sadly between just the cost of the outfit, the contacts, the wig, the shoes....it gets expensive...thats also if I aint going for characters with props lol!

The cosplays im trying to get are...
Horo - Spice and Wolf
Sagiri - Eromanga sensei
2B's operator - Neir (super side character but its for a group lol would have been A2 but i didn't think anyone wanted to see a chubby girl in that XD)

So I am opening up cosplay commissions!
