Hey all, just want to leave an update here to remind you that I wasn't doing the Monday pin ups this month so I could focus on art assets for the visual novel. Call me paranoid, but in case any of you missed my announcement on the matter last month, I didn't want you thinking I left you hanging with no update today without an explanation.
As for me, I've got a busy week ahead. I'm planning on two TRW pages for starters, though whether I'll have them both ready by Thursday remains to be seen. I might stagger them and release the second one over the weekend, depends on how smoothly my process goes making them. (I spent like an hour on one boob today, so I never can tell.)
Also wanted to let you know I'll be making an announcement about opening back up for commissions sometime in June. (My apologies for pushing the date further back than I planned.) I actually have one on the way this month, but the circumstances are unique: it was conceived as a job to contribute to the game, like many in the "FuckWall" series I've done in the last couple of years, which is why I made room for it in this game-focused month initially. But since I'm so close to opening up to non-game related commissions for the first time in ages, I decided there was no need for the client to tether the job to the game if they didn't want to. Expect it to drop sometime in the next couple of weeks!
I'll be sure to post the details with a dedicated post when I'm ready, but here's what I'm thinking now: the main problem I had with commissions before was that I got overwhelmed with requests and ended up with a waiting list that had over twenty people on it. My number one priority is not getting into that situation again, which means I'll likely be limiting commission requests to the higher support tiers when I first open to see how it goes. But I'm not 100% decided, if you have any pointers on how other artists keep from getting buried, please feel free to share them with me.
That's all I've got for now, thank you all again for your patience with me while I moved things around in the month of May.
