WIP Update

Hey all, here are some WIPs I have going for those who aren't in discord. I've been on a tear lately to get these done, not to mention a couple of private comms (not pictured) as well. Byleth (Fire Emblem), Em (Commissioner OC), Musashi (Kantai Collection), Miriam (Bloodstained).

I would like to remind the Patrons in the commission tiers, as well as myself, that with the exception of the EX and DX tiers, all other subsequent commission tier slots are BUDGET commissions. Meaning, they're mainly for characters only. I admittedly overextend on my end because I want to maintain my own standards.

Moving forward, any additional work that goes beyond mere character designs, their cost will be taken out of the subsequent months in the tier instead of outside payment. I feel the people patiently waiting in the commission line are being cheated, and I apologize to them. I've lost sight of this in the past few months, and it has led me to crunch on my own work. With a very untenable work/life balance. This has also led to my commission list getting delayed. The same will be said for those in line. PLEASE LET ME KNOW THE SCOPE OF YOUR DESIRED PROJECT AHEAD OF TIME.

Any additional pieces, variants, ideas, etc. that may be attached to your reserved commission block will be rejected if it was not previously agreed upon. Please don't take this as a sign of entitlement on my end. I just need to actually have time for myself as a human being, to be able to relax. I will always be forever thankful for anyone who is willing and trying to support me.

As for those in any of the commission tiers, another gentle reminder (if you already adhere to this, it does not apply to you) to please inform me of your ideas as soon as you get them. I don't like to pressure anyone for ideas they don't have but holding off until the last moment on the details of a project, leads me to more crunch.

All the changes I've been implementing in regard to content the last 3 months have been to free up more space so that I can bring you all more of my own personal pieces. But it has not unfolded as such. I've actually found no time for own projects. I do feel a lot of this is because I don't like saying "no" to aspects of a project, especially if the commissioner is very eager about it.

TL:DR - I'm going to be strict with scope creep on projects and the boundaries of budgets so I can actually have a day off or two.
