Gonna knock out two topics at once.

Commission sale ends tomorrow at 10PM EST. More limited tiers will be showing up on my Patreon and SubStar come Saturday.

I'm currently still working down my list of comms and will start to turn my focus to more personal endeavors as I keep getting more and more comms done.
I don't know if I will fully close up shop from commissions indefinitely, but I do plan to close shop, temporarily, May 17th.

I'm quite honestly burnt out just mostly from the mistreatment people have given to me and I just need an honest break!
That doesn't mean I quit drawing. Hell no I can't give that up. That's the only thing, besides Shadow the Hedgehog, and my amazing friends, that makes me happy.

I WILL be...

I wanted to be nice and make my prices affordable due to me having a day job, but I harbored more unsavory, entitled people because of it. I'm not going into 2025 just dealing
with assholes that have been treating me like shit, which has happened
since the latter of 2023 and into 2024 I have just dealt with this non-stop.
I am a human, not a machine and I'm going to be honest people's sheer
behavior towards me has actually made me want to quit fetish art multiple times,
but I DO love drawing the content I do and I have since removed those problem clientele.
That being said, I'm working down finishing up my queue and my pricing will
be permanently reworked for my mental health and stability.

Working on finishing up commissions...

Currently chipping away at my commission list (Trello will be updated by the end of the month!), but it may still take time due to my day job!

If you have questions/would like updates, please message me in our current DMs (through Twitter, Bsky or Discord respectively) and keep the following in mind:

-I'm blunt and bad at small talk, please don't take it personally
-Please be polite in your approach, there's no need for aggression
-Communication is a TWO-WAY street, if you don't message me you won't get updates until I start on your commission

I do apologize that my queue has built up in this way, but everyone's commissions will be finished- it'll just take some time. Thank you for your patience.

Wow, 2024 was a shitshow, glad it's almost over. Erasing it from my memory. Going on. I'm finishing my comms. I don't want to have to do a lot of comms next year and keeping stuff to a slot based system. I appreciate all the support. This has been a great run, no I'm not quitting art. I just want to do a lot more personal art and getting back into animating since I haven't done it in so long :D.

So for the 2024 year ender I have two sales going on:

To my current clients. I am chipping away at my comm list! I will be sending out more updates during the holiday season since I'm not going to be too busy and...

Nope, no one's forgotten abt, if I'm being quite frank I just been dealing with bullshit after bullshit from people (no one in particular) and seasonal depression on top of it that is killing my drive so I need to lock in and step away. I will be sending comm updates ASAP. I have a lot of IRL obligations, such as starting a new job, to keep myself afloat.

If you want to keep up with me you can follow me on Twitter, Bluesky, or join my Discord server

It's not here, it's just mainly my Twitter audience this is referring to, but I am honestly truly done with commissions. I am closing shop earlier than anticipated come the end of October and I truly mean that. This year has been a shit show to say the least and I want to get back to focusing to personal endeavors. I am miserable and I do not like lumping an age group together because I have had pleasant clients from this age group, but 18-21 year olds have made my experience taking commissions as a freelancer hell on earth to put it in the nicest terms possible.

Taking snippets from my Twitter thread:

I do not like getting sick. I'm a workaholic. I like staying busy. I hate not being able to do something it bothers me, but I'm getting tone deaf dms asking...

To keep it short, got covid again. Second time I've had it
So I'm gonna be resting up until I can work again

Sorry for the lack of updates I'm more active via Twitter!

These past few days have been a doozy to say the least. Some kids in my apt complex busted my drivers window to attempt to steal my car. I will not be renewing my lease at my current place because of this happening. I will be resuming more commissions starting next week! Sorry for the long wait and delays due to life events.

I have great updates for once. This one might be a little lengthy I'm not too sure yet, but here goes.

Thank you for all the support and patience. This year has been a rollercoaster for me, mentally, but I am doing much much better.

That being said here are the updates starting with my TOS.

I had to update my TOS in great length and detail due to ongoing issues with people that have commissioned me between the age range of 18-20 years old. A good chunk of these clients have been incredibly rude and disrespectful and I had to make my comms 21+.
This is my choice and my rules and people may think it's extreme, or ageist, but it's really not and I get to choose who can and can't commission me. However, if you are a chill client and built up a...

The info is here, but I wanted to mention that I lowered the first goal to $100, which has been hit! Commissioning also does contribute and I appreciate it.
