Hey.
So, it’s the last month of the year, last push so to speak. As I’ve written previously, I’ve decided to take a small break towards the end of the year and it will last from 27th December until 5th January. During this time, commissions will be closed and I will ignore any messages asking for it, providing details, etc. Just be aware of that. But if you wanna have a chat with me - you can still write, though I might be late with my responds. I’ll still finish all the active commissions for this year. Also, apologies for taking so much time with them (especially to mr. Praxxys).
I’ve recently tried to pass JLPT N2. Being completely honest - I have no faith in a positive result, as I haven’t properly studied for it, but it was interesting nonetheless :D. Sadly, I’ve got ill a couple of times already, nothing serious, just caught some cold, but it unfortunately also affects my productivity.
I’m also going to change the tiers a bit. The first change will be to a 10$ tier. Originally, I made it for ordering commissions, but I feel like as time went on - it kinda got overcrowded and it’s main goal right now is access to more posts, which is completely fair, but it becomes harder for me to track the amount of potential commissions I need to do. So I’ve made a new tier - Art Commissioner. As the name suggests, this tier will be specifically for ordering commissions, that means the Art Connoisseur will lose it(commission) as its benefit, but almost everything else will stay the same. And also Art Commissioner will have a max patron limit, right now, it is 12, but I’ll see how it goes and adjust the amount of places accordingly. I would ask anyone who wants to ask for commission to change the tier, regardless if I’ve already done yours for this month or not. Just so you have the spot, if plan on doing it next month too.
Another change I’m contemplating to do is upping the prices. For now, It will be the Art Enjoyer and Art Commissioner. But for both, the change might come after new year and I’m also thinking on “freezing” prices for everyone already subscribed, meaning it will stay mostly the same, and affect only new patrons. And considering patreon introduced discount to subs, I'll think about giving them out on some holidays. But as of right now, it is only a thought.
I've tried to do smth different with my OC. The outfit is a bit random (just saw similar one on twitter) and she looks like a bootleg pokemon trainer xD. But I still like how it turned out. I'll probably try some more in the future.
Another thought I had is - releasing some cancelled sets (or more so a mish-mash of them). I'll be quite honest, I'm mostly out of ideas right now, but I still want to release my own sets at the same pace(so once every 3 days). And this way I can go till my break without breaking my head :D. Plus, maybe some of the ideas I had, but didn't fully complete, will be interesting to you and that'll motivate me to finish them. But ultimately it's up to you.
P.S. I'll update mega link and archive later today. Also, monthly poll will return tomorrow, so get ready with your characters.
