Things to come and Commisions to work out! (Patreon)

Finally got done with the final line-work gift pictures and I'm almost fully over the cold I had recently.
I will be available to offer the colouring option for these gifts late Jan as I had pushed a lot of my December plans into January so things are running a tad late.

One thing I'm still on schedule for is my upcoming Christmas piece with this small preview below.

Its been a while since an angle and pose have given me a big challenge to overcome but this ones really putting me to the test!


The Commission problem!!!

Something that's cropped up a lot over the years is commission requests which I have promised to open for some time early next year (likely once I'm done with the gift colours).
Ive spoken to quite a few people regarding the price point they would expect from me and it varies massively so I have yet to come up with a solid price list.
I also have no idea how I will manage the number of commissioners as it looks like the moment I open I will be closed again likely within the day due to all the offers!
Its kinda scary for me to deal with the huge amount of additional work it will bring along side my regular uploads and my two other jobs and it seems unfair to anyone who wants art to have missed such a small window of opportunity to get one of my slots.
If I could clone myself to draw more and do my other jobs without compromise I would but this has been part of the reason Ive put it off for so long.

I cant help but get the feeling my prices will be considered unreasonable by the vast majority of fans and for the ones that are willing to pay, its like trying to win the lottery as the opportunity to get a slot is barley a day before I'm full and then have to spend a month or two completing the projects before I'm open again!

I'm cant be a full time artist so I dont have the free time to bust out pic after pic like some might be able to so am I just shooting myself in the paw by opening for commissions when it seems like the main result will just be disappointment for the vast majority of fans?
