🍄 Sabermawzz commission wip (+ life update) (Patreon)

happy Christmas Eve friends - I figured I would check in with this very large (and intimidating) commission wip for Sabermawzz! I’m very nervous to get to work on rendering the background on this, but I’m also looking forward to pushing myself out my comfort zone a little with a scene like this. I’ve never really drawn a swamp type BG before so! This will be interesting. 

I also wanna update a little bit on my personal home life situation under here, so if that isn’t your kinda thing then no worries, you don’t have to read any further! 

It’s hard to fully explain the gravity of my home situation right now without going into detail which I’m not comfortable doing, so all I’ll say is that stress and tensions are high at home and my dog still isn’t doing well at all. I’m very stressed and overwhelmed, and every day I feel like I’m being thrown through a brand new emotional rollercoaster. I’m exhausted.

I don’t plan on opening commissions back up until early / mid January, as I really, really need a break. I’m sorry to disappoint anyone with this, and I completely understand if people want to cancel pledges / move to a lower tier. This is the last commission on my queue, and I’m hoping to get it finished soon. Once it is complete, I want to have a little break and focus on making a couple new bases, as I know I haven’t made one in a while, which is another thing I’m very sorry for. With everything thats been going on, I’ve been just focusing on finishing my queue and it’s been taking up all of my mental energy. I don’t usually work this slow but just getting out of bed takes a lot of will power, so finishing work has been so so hard. Once I don’t have anything else left on my plate, I’ll dedicate time to making high quality bases for a while before I open commissions back up once my mental state and home life are more stable. Of course, weekly rewards are still going on, even if they are a couple days late sometimes. I don’t have the time or mental energy to make any more candy cane icon gifts, which I’m so deeply sorry for, but I’m do my best to make up for it by doing more high quality rewards.

overall I’m just very sorry that this last month or two I’ve been slacking with, everything. It’s hard for me to find the will to keep going with life at this point but I’m really trying my best. Hopefully after a small break I can be back on my A-game and making the highest quality content for you all. I appreciate the love and support from you all so much more than I can put into words. I’m grateful for every like, comment, pledge, and sweet message. I see you all and I want you all to know that you all mean the world to me. Everyday I’m thankful for this little community, and to have people who are so Understanding and patient supporting me. Thank you so very much.
