At the end of September I’m opening commissions again as sort of “emergency” commissions.
It’s obviously not an urgent emergency, but I am on a time limit until January to save up enough money to move out, and on top of that save money for November so I can buy a new computer when parts are lower (my current one is getting extremely slow and it’s actively hindering my art, I’d also like to learn to rig and that’s not currently possible with my current computer)
I keep having people on my waitlist drop out and multiple people asking for refunds (even tho the due date for their commission isn’t passed yet but oh well) so I’m getting really stressed out.
I’ve been working slower specifically because I was sick for one week and have been burnt out on art lately. But realizing my job situation I need to push through it even if I hate it. I need to make more money.
So at the end of September, specifically on October 1st, I will open up commissions again (and increase my prices for some things)
Everything will be open (vtuber models, character designs, emotes, illustrations, etc.) and I will have limited slots for each commission.
Also please note, when you commission me in October you will be put on a waitlist until mid-October, then I will begin your commission. This gives me enough time to secure new commission slots while finishing my ongoing commissions.
I hate to ask but when I make the post if any of you could share it around that would be really appreciated.
I took too long to apply to jobs and now that it’s the middle of September all the jobs I’m able to do aren’t available anymore :’)
Every job left I see openings for I physically can’t do because I don’t have a degree or any experience, or they’re super intensive physical labor jobs I can’t do at all either.
It’s so dumb because everywhere around town places say they’re hiring then I check online and they’re not or they don’t pay enough.
Like if I got one of these part time job options I’d be making less than I do doing art :/
Well idk what to do now. I really don’t want to work full time because of my commissions and my stomach issues. And I don’t want to work in a gross fast food place again.
So fuck me I guess. Back to grinding commissions and feeling soulless doing so because I’m so burnt out and never have time to draw for myself anymore.
