Hey guys. It’s time for another update. Below will explain what’s going on right now and what’s to come in the future.
The Move: As I’ve stated before, Caine and I will be moving to Texas. 14 days before we leave Germany. The borrowed furniture gets taken back tomorrow. The rest of our stuff gets packed up and shipped on Thursday. We move out of the house and into a hotel (where we will be spending our last 10 days in Germany) on Saturday. Which means:
1. We’ll be living in an empty house for a day (that’s gonna be fun).
2. I’ll be without any internet (other than my cell phone, if I get it turned back on when we’re Stateside) until late October when we’ve finally found a place and settled in Texas.
Commission Offer: The commission offer is still open. I am only taking offers for the 1-year subscription now. I will also accept a 2-character request as long as it’s * female only *. If you’re interested, leave a comment or Note me. The offer expires this Saturday (September 5th) at 06:00 (am) EST.
Silly Simple Song Sketches of September: It’s the first of September! I’m gonna do something I’ve been wanting to do for… about 2 years now called the “Silly Simple Song Sketches of September” (or “S5” for short). Every day this month, I will pick a song and draw a doodle/sketch to it. I will not be posting these on my main galleries (DA, FA, & here), though. Instead, they’ll be posted to the following pages:
Any requests? Is there a song you’d like me to draw to? Would you like to see your characters featured for that song? Why not make it a commission? You choose the song and which day of the month (of September 2015) you want it drawn for. Let me know which characters you want me to use. The pose will be up to me. I’ll do my best to come up with something. Just keep in mind the following:
Interested? They’re $15 per character. Leave a comment or send me a Note with the following information:
Song: (Artist and Title)
Day: (within September 2015)
Character Ref(s):
I will accept payment * AFTER * the doodle has been completed. Please have your money ready by then. If you’re unable to pay within 24 hours after I’ve notified you that your doodle/sketch has been completed, you will not see your completed piece and it will not be posted.
In the meantime, I will just doodle away and post what I come up with each day (even if they suck). You might not see anything for a while after the 15th, though (read above “The Move”). Any questions or concerns? You can leave a comment here or Note me.
Inktober: I am going to try to participate in this year’s “Inktober”. I’ve been trying to do so for the past 2 or 3 years now. But I’ve always made up excuses to back out. Mainly, I’ve just been ashamed of my Art. I look at what other people submit and I just… give up. I’m gonna try not to let that happen again this year.
I was going to offer commissions like I’m doing for this month, but I just want to try doing this for myself this year first. If it goes well, I’ll offer commissions next year (if I don’t have a “real” job by then).
Again, these will not be posted in my main galleries (DA, FA, & Weasyl). Instead, they’ll be posted in the same pages listed above for the “S5” pieces.
Future Plans: Depending on how the next couple of months go (both Art-wise and Life-wise), I may or may not open up full commissions again. In the event that I do, I am going to revise my Terms and Conditions and fix my prices. You will see an update about those in the future. So stay tuned.
That’s all I’ve got for now. This will most likely be my last update until [possibly] November (the latest). At least that’s what I’m hoping. If anything major comes up, I’ll find a way to let you all know when I can. Until then, l8r!
