Personal Update: Full-time Artist, Commissions, Streams
I just suddenly felt it necessary to make this post now, and in stead of making it a normal journal, I've decided to post it as a scraps thing here cuz it's like more important and as far as I know most don't bother lookin at journals.
SO, at the title says, I've made the move (with some coaching to be a full-time artist/animator. I dropped my part-time job that I was doing along side my art last week. The job was easy, but the hours were mega early and made a lot of things difficult without being tired and lethargic all the time, and made me a scatterbrain. A friend of mine who's been self employed for a few years now has been pushing me this way for a while, so I've decided to make the move, and expand to try lots of new things. Along with the tiredness, I've been increasingly anxious about linguring work, both personal and commissioned, that's also largely pushed me to this, and how much better I felt after the covid lockdown really made me realized how shitty I felt when I went back to those hours after stuff started reopening.
Generally, what this means is that I'll be streaming 2-4 times a week, many streams will be live sketch streams and other ideas I get for stuff I can do cheap and quick for peeps. Hence the two recent sketch streams, which already replaced that income, in far less time.
I also added the $15 "sketch" commission tier on my commission price listings on my site.
FOR THIS WEEK, these are the only commissions I'm willing to take, as I've had some larger animation projects I've been sitting on that need finishing and I wanna focus hard to get that stuff done now that I have the time and am gettin proper sleep again. Sketches I can produce quickly while still having plenty of time to work on the bigger stuff.
Mainly, it's been a couple of larger projects I've been very slow on, and my personal projects have recently taken a big hit in time, I'm very behind where I wanted to be with Aurumo's MUGEN charater this month, so I wanna play some catch up on that as well to get an update out before the month is through.
With some of these animations commissions knocked out, I'll be forming a new plan for new incoming works and a good schedule for them so that I'm finishing projects weekly, rather than monthly, or longer.
SOOOOO With all that said. I'll make some announcements later on in the coming week. In the meantime, keep a look out for my live sketch streams. I'm doing roughly 6-9 slots each stream, depending of they are single or multiple character things as I plan to do them for about 4 hours each time.
Thats about all for now. Some stuff of note is:

Lastly, thanks everyone who's been following my art journey here. It's been a long while and I recently hit 7000 watchers. I'm feeling pretty good about all the support I've gotten up to this point. This change should really help me push to a new level.
Thanks all <3
