Fantasy Commissions Update! by joebluefox

Hello! Might have noticed a lapse in the fantasy commissions, due in part to some real life travel, and in part as a couple were not posted publicly. I am still working on them though, however I will only be completing two more!

Reasons for this:

1.) I got WAY MORE requests than I expected, and frankly I'm just unable to handle them all! I cannot tell you all how much I appreciate the response tho! REAL TALK: It's incredibly encouraging and inspiring and I love you guys so much for having an interest in my art, adult or not. I know I can be quiet, but lemme just HUG YOU ALL RIGHT NOW because I appreciate every bit of support!

2.) I'm putting more time into these than their cost is worth. Pricing is always tough, and I keep putting in a good few hours on these, so I ended up low-balling my prices a little. As much as I wish I could keep working at this rate to be more accessible, I do have my own bills to pay, and living alone is no cheap expense. I WILL NOT BE ASKING FOR MORE FOR THOSE WHO'VE ALREADY COMMISSIONED ME. The agreement was $20.00 and I most certainly will not go back on that. That'd just be ridiculous, worry not!

So, I'll be emailing shortly here to notify the last two customers, and then notify the rest of you who put in requests that production on these has ended. This was also part of why I only had people pay when their time in queue was up, so there shouldn't be any refunds to worry about!

Once the last two are wrapped up, I'll be working to get things ready for open-ended commissions again! I've got a good handle on how Google Forms work now, and I think I can build a good system now for the indefinite future. Keep an eye out for more info on that when the time comes around!

(To those who's fantasy requests I won't be completing, I'm sorry I was unable to get to you! Again, thank you each and every one of you who expressed interest, it means THE WORLD to me you have no idea <3)

    I hope I'll get to commission you someday!

    Well, at least now I know not to apply for commissions this way. Feels a bit discouraging for those rejected after a month of waiting.

      My apologies! I won't be doing them in the exact same way again. This was a big learning experience for me, I'm trying out a lot of new things and I wasn't totally sure how things were gonna go down! In the future I'll just be using the form to generate a queue, which I'll have publicly posted, so you'll know ahead of time if you've been ensured a slot. Mainly, I was just too ambitious this time around and wanted to do them all but I didn't anticipate the volume of work I ended up with. Again, my apologies for causing you undue distress! I will most certainly improve my work system.

        Hey, no undue distress here. If anything, you saved me money \o/
        Don't sweat it, finding out the right way to do things is always a learning process, don't let a grumbling wolfdog discourage you <3
