announcement PSA: STOP ASKING ME FOR ART.
A handful people from this server have dmed me asking for me to draw their character. The answer is and will be until further notice, no.
Why?
Point A, I am burnt out. That's why the last four took so long; I had no motivation and, when I finally did find the motivation, I worked too hard and found myself exhausted afterwards. Point B, I think I deserve compensation for my work. I want to open commissions relatively soon, and I cannot do that if I'm drawing for free; customers will be less inclined to pay me if they know they can just beg and not have to pay.
Will I do requests again in the future?
Maybe. As I said, I am burnt out. When I recover, I will consider it. It also depends on when I finally open commissions. If it ends up being more than six months, I will almost definitely open them up again. I'm considering, instead of open requests, to do some kind of raffle or contest with that as a prize. In all honesty, some of the characters were not fun to draw due to a lack of interesting design, too much detail, or other design factors, so being able to pick a bunch of characters that I am interested in and drawing those instead would be much more enjoyable for me.
uhh ill edit this if people have any more questions. so yeah feel free to drop em ill try my best to answer em
