Commission Update
Hey everyone, I wanted to share an update on where things stand with my commissions and plans moving forward.
I’ve officially completed my largest commission order to date! My next goal is to finish all the (already) colored commissions by the end of this month. Starting January 1st, I’ll begin sketching all unrefunded commissions, including any recent ones I’ve accepted. Unfortunately, I’ve had to push back some plans since I’m just now getting over the flu, but I’m doing my best to get everything back on track.
For commissions that fall under my refund category, I haven’t been able to start processing refunds yet. I was holding out hope after applying to multiple jobs that matched my experience (like pet stores and customer service with Chewy), but unfortunately, none of them worked out. I even went through the entire interview process with PetSmart, including the final interview, but it’s been two weeks with no feedback, and the listing has since closed. It’s disheartening, and I’m still processing that.
Refunds for unstarted commissions are a priority, but they’ll take some time as I handle essential expenses like bills and animal care first. I plan to refund the majority of them as soon as I can.
Once I’ve completed 90% of my current projects, I’ll reopen commissions with a new structure to streamline the process and avoid burnout. There will be two main types offered: rendered and simplified. Rendered pieces may involve some collaborative work to speed things up and reduce hand strain (pricing will reflect this). Furry commissions will be more limited, with a focus on unique species to keep things fresh and avoid repetitive work.
On another note, my 21st birthday is coming up on the 23rd, Since I’m still unemployed and could really use grocery funds, any support would mean the world to me:
