First I want to say thank you to all my steady clients, who commission me over and over again. I'm very grateful for your orders and support and flattered that you all like my art so much and that you keep coming back for more. :hug: Despite fearing the Covid-19 mess might lead to less orders, actually the opposite happened and I've been working nonstop for the last months. Each time a commission was done, another one was ordered right afterwards. New clients approached me and joined the steady client group. Which is awesome, don't get me wrong! But here's my problem, I can't say "No" to people who secure my income in fear of driving them away. And the moment payment has been sent I put myself under pressure to finish the picture as quickly as possible. I guess that's why people have gotten used to the fact that I deliver commissions in a few days or a week. Which leads to another problem, namely that even when I tell them the sketch / colouring might take a while because

I'll announce it here when my commissions are open again. *********************************************************************** Please, please, please only ask for a slot when you have money and ideas ready. It happens so often that people tell me they want a commission, then don't reply for days and eventually cancel it because they suddenly realize they can't afford it. It's a waste of time and money for me because in that time I also could have worked on someone else's commission instead of running after people. And it's unfair towards those people who really would have wanted a slot and didn't get one. And because people keep asking, sorry but NO, I don't accept points. I do these commissions to earn money for a living, and real life bills can't be paid with DA-points.  Thanks for your understanding. Information I need : - colouring style ( flat, cg-sketch, full cg ) - number of characters - reference sheet or description - desired pose / expression /

I kept the old DA design as long as they let us, but this Eclipse monstrosity is making me feel like an old hag. I'm too old for such drastic changes of a website I've been using for 17 freaking years! Everything is so huge and bulky and seriously, why am I paying subscriptions when everything I loved about this site is thrown out of the window to be more "modern" and "trendy"? It was perfectly fine, simple and unique and now it looks like a 14-year-old wanted to show off their web-design-skills. I know we all will sooner or later ( be forced to ) get used to this, but right now, let me whine. :(
