The passing of a pillar of our community...
General | Posted a year agoBy now I'm sure everyone's heard the news of Dragoneer's death. I am crushed.
He was the first person to ever commission me, and helped me set myself up to pursue that journey to this very day.
Without him I may never have had that first push into furry art, and none of the work I've done would have come to pass.
This is a colossal blow to the community he helped to foster and build... my god, the things he did to ensure a free and safe bastion for all of us here.
To say he will be sorely missed is a tragic understatement, my heart is broken...

Once more to AC!
General | Posted 2 years agoHeya ever'buddy, i'll be making my way out to AnthroCon again, if I see ya out there don't be afraid of saying hi :D
For those still waiting in the queue for commissions, worry not, i'll be back to it once I get home! I haven't forgotten about you :3

Commission Update! (PAUSED)
General | Posted 2 years agoThe commission queue is on temporary hold until I can get through some of the current list, I really don't want to bite off more than I can chew or cause people to have to wait for several months while my slow arse works through these pieces...
I know I forgot to actually create a journal announcing the opening of commissions to coincide with the price list i'd posted, and I apologize to any fluff who may have missed this current round, but there WILL be many others!
And I am..... GOBSMACKED and thrilled at how many people still jumped on and how quickly, I adore you all XD
If I get through a couple more commissions and things seem to be moving along smoothly, i'll reopen things and continue adding folks to the list, just as long as they don't mind waiting!
Anywho, back to the journey...

Back from AnthroCon!
General | Posted 3 years agoI'm so tired, but in a good way. I had a hell of a blast at AC this year, magical as always!
Now that i've unpacked and slept a bit i'm gonna continue on the commissions that are waiting in the list, so for those waiting thank you so much for being so patient with me! I will get them going ASAP!

Commissions are open again!
General | Posted 3 years agoI know, been a while...
Commissions are now open, but i'm going to take them on a bit differently than I used to. For a full description, please read my Terms of Service on the front page.
A list of prices and descriptions can be found both under the 'Commissions' tab on my FA page, AND through a link on the front page, just below the banner!
If you're interested in a commission, send me a message with whatever description/info and references you have, and i'll add you to the Trello queue (viewable from my front page below the banner)
Once I get to your name, i'll reach out to you through whichever means you've given (preferably FA notes, but Twitter, Telegram or email can work too) and hammer out any other details you may have come up with, even if the idea has changed overall. Once that's set to go, i'll send out an invoice, and once payment goes through i'll get started on your piece!
I think doing it this way will greatly reduce the anxiety created from having a large number of people all paying up-front. If for any reason I get to you and you can no longer pay for a commission, or are no longer interested, i'll simply move on to the next in line. No hard feelings, no worries. There'll be other chances, I know life can happen!

Bit of a status update, and a slow recovery!
General | Posted 3 years agoHey everyone,
Just following up with this journal for everyone still waiting for commissions from me, i'm starting to slowly feel better, though the recovery process has been ridiculously slow.
I'm pecking away at the commissions on hand again, for a couple hours at a time before the dizziness/brain fog periodically comes back to mess with me. As far as Covid goes, would not recommend, 1/5 stars and all that...
I am truly sorry to those who've had to wait a month or more rather than a couple weeks for me to get back to it. For those who are still waiting on sketches/updates, if it comes down to it and you just can't afford to wait any longer, I will absolutely do full refunds if you wish to move on, though please be assured, I will do everything I can to fulfill your commissions! Believe me, I want to see them come to fruition myself :3
Once this current batch is clear, i'm going to re-work the way I do commissions so that people don't have to gamble on whether I can get my shit together or not for any given reason. Meaning I'll most likely drop the 'Payment Up Front for a Slot' sort of thing, which worked well enough when i'd had one or two people in the list at a time. At this point I can see exactly why this isn't fair to the customer who has to throw that money at the artist and gamble on whether that artist will honour the contract...
Might be looking at more of a system where I'll form a list of the people who request a commission, then once I get to that specific person on said list, contact them and get the payment and ball rolling on what they'd like, or move on past those who no longer have interest or don't have the funds, etc.... something like that anyways. I'll need to build something better, because I can't keep doing it the way i've always done it, at least not when there's this many people wanting work from me (which was unprecedented when i'd randomly decided to re-open commissions earlier in the year. You folks have absolutely floored me with your support over the last few months!)
Also, if anyone out there who reads this has an idea as to a better, more efficient system I could put together after these current commissions, please fire it my way or comment here! Any suggestions are seriously appreciated!
Thank you all, my fellow fluffs <3

AC Success, Covid Woes and Other Such Things...
General | Posted 4 years agoAnthroCon was fantastic, just gotta preface with that much. I had a monumental time, so many amazing people I got to meet and hang out with. It was overwhelming in the most wonderfully exhausting way! Highly recommend for all those wanting to make at least one trip there to see it...
That being said, shortly after it ended we'd nearly all contracted Covid, so now things are crawling (almost literally) along. I'm gonna chip away at the commissions I have left on the docket. I know i've taken WAY too long on this batch, and am going to figure out a better way to take them on once i'm through this wave.
As of typing this, I feel awful, but I am getting through the worst of it. Ironically it's the first time i've caught the damn thing, and I can't say I recommend, 1/5 stars, thumbs down, angry emoji and so on...
Overall, had a great time at the convention. Now to just recover as best I can so that this summer can be more productive, and thank you all for your supreme patience with me!

Away to AC!
General | Posted 4 years agoAnthro Con ahoy! First time for me, be an interesting trip, and a nice change of pace and scenery.
If anyone spots me, say hi! :D

Still chugging along!
General | Posted 4 years agoFor all those still waiting on commissions from me, rest assured, I am hammering away at them! Just a bit slow-going right now, but I have not forgotten any of you, they will be done, and done well! :3
And to those who've been leaving tips, I absolutely adore you all and wish I had a better way of thanking you! Just make sure your own financial situations are solid, a lot of people suffering these days and I need to know my fellow fluffs are alright...
Anywho, back to it!

Things are going! A bit slow, but going!
General | Posted 4 years agoHeya all! Just wanted to give this quick update on commissions. Things are moving, they are a little slow, but they are moving, and i'll update the queue as I get through various stages and such.
I seem to have come down with something that's making me drag quite a bit, and i'm waiting to speak to my doctor in a week or two... BUT even then i'm getting a bit done every day! I'll post finished pieces as I go, once I get the next couple commissions done. And i'll be streaming the line art and colour stages for the most part!
Thank you all again for putting your faith in me, and being so patient! Gonna do everything in my power to get these done and sent out! *Hugs to all*

Commissions Locked!
General | Posted 4 years agoHoly hell you fluffs are amazing, I can't believe how many of you jumped on this and how quickly! My head's still spinning XD
I'll re-open again once I get through this batch! If you see this and just missed it, never fear, there'll be more chances :3

Commissions Open Again!
General | Posted 4 years agoOkay, gonna open for a few more. Just as a heads-up, I need to slow things down a little and pace myself, that last batch I really didn't do myself any favours speed-wise, and nearly burned myself out by the end with the anxiety of getting things done. That was my dumb mistake!
I've refined the price page a little by adding and defining sequential works vs. full-blown comic pages, haven't raised existing prices yet in fairness to those who were interested after i'd opened for the first batch. I'll further refine my prices as time goes on, but I do realize where i'm at skill-wise...
I will clarify this though; I RESERVE THE RIGHT TO DECLINE A PROJECT. I feel for my own sanity I need to say this, I'm all for doing comic pages and larger works, but if there's a busy queue I may need to decline larger projects in order to get other people's commissions in a (relatively) timely fashion. It doesn't mean i'll never do it, I just have to pick and choose my battles right now, but if you are curious/interested please don't hesitate in asking first!
All that being said, if you're interested in a commission, toss me a note with what you'd like! :D

Commissions Locked!
General | Posted 4 years agoOhhhhhh my goodness that was fast. I'm closing commissions temporarily as of now so I can handle the first batch.
I..... oh my word that was fast, I am in actual shock XD
Thank you to all who jumped in on this, I adore you all! And to those who are JUST seeing this, don't worry, i'll be re-opening things once I get through these first few!

Commissions Are Finally Open!
General | Posted 4 years agoI'm gonna *carefully* open myself to commissions again, I know it's been a while... thank you for all who've patiently waited this long for them to re-open! If you are interested, please toss a note at me with what you may be looking for!
As far as pricing and my terms of service, nothing has seriously changed yet, but i'm going to try and limit how many I take on at once, so as not become overwhelmed. I wanna kind of tip-toe my way back into the process.
That being said, I do reserve the right to stream the process, unless otherwise stated. If you don't particularly feel comfortable with me streaming the art, that's fine, but it needs to be communicated so there's no confusion and such! I have linked my Picarto on the front page for easy access to said streams, so if anyone feels like seeing how the sausage is made, c'mon in!

Well that didn't work...
General | Posted 4 years agoSeems the streaming took a bit of a nose-dive today, sorry again to any who joined as soon as I shut it down. Things just weren't working and I was getting more and more frustrated.
I'll try again this weekend once I have more time and a better idea of what direction to come at the comic's colours.

Awr, Helium Day?
General | Posted 4 years agoAnd here I have to work this bloody week XP
Back to a bit of Streaming!
General | Posted 4 years agoI'm starting up some streaming once again, that is until the next week of work throws it off.
I'll be posting here and on Twitter whenever I start one up, feel free to bounce on in and take a look when I do so!

Streaming Break This Week!
General | Posted 5 years agoI'll be taking a break from streaming this week as work suddenly ramps up, but i'll be back to it once i'm through this busy period!
Thank you to all who've watched me and my art flailing over the last couple weeks, I can't wait to get back to work on the comic!

My Streaming, Current and Future!
General | Posted 5 years agoFirst off, thank you to everyone who jumped into my art stream today and any time previously in the last month! I always enjoy showing off what I'm currently work on :3
I'll try to keep up the regularity of my streams as I work through this comic, i'm still trying to figure out a way to 'schedule' things better. Because I tend to crash pretty hard in the early evenings, I may need to find a way to push some of those sessions 'till then and start at a later time so more people can take a look at what i've been up to!
For the time being, keep an eye on my 'STREAM' submission notification here on FA, as well as on Twitter, where I post as soon as I begin ====> https://twitter.com/VictorTheMewtwo
feel free to follow me on Picarto and Twitter as well, I always appreciate it!

Pausing Commissions Temporarily
General | Posted 5 years agoJust an addition that I forgot to put in the previous journal, I'm going to be putting a temporary hold on commissions in order to go full-steam on this new large project I have.
Once it nears a point where I can focus again on them, i'll announce the re-opening of commissions here and on Twitter!
Thanks again to all those peeps who helped me get through this troubling time, it may not be over, but i'm in a better position to deal with it now :3

Shoutout and Thanks to All!
General | Posted 5 years agoGoing into this whole quarantine crisis I had no idea i'd suddenly have a steady stream of commissions coming my way. All I could see when this started was anxiety-based fog, and no future to speak of...
Thank you to all who commissioned me in this dire time, not only was the income it provided helpful as hell, it helped to keep my mind focused on things OTHER than the near panic of the last four months.
I really can't thank you all enough for the serious patronage!
