I'm currently in a weird spot: I'm not yet entirely out of school since I haven't yet received my diploma (8th of July) And I'm not yet ready to re-open fully to commissions since I'll take some time off next week.
----
SO I'ma have another request session,, as long as this journal is still called "open" you can comment your character down below ((I'll have it open for the next couple of days or so,, not sure yet when I'll close))
And I'll pick out some to draw
----
ALsoalso,, you might have noticed that I didn't title this ""sketch"" request session, like the last time. Which is because I just felt like it might be more fun for every participant in this if I just mix it up, rather than just posting sketch compilations.
((you might still get a sketch, who knows,, I'll try to vary it up: headshots, painted stuff, maybe rough backgrounds even))
Everything will probably still be kept quick and fun ((but quick and fun stuff sometimes have turned into finished pieces if the stars align)) but overly detailed or complex characters might have less of a chance to be drawn all fancily,, just keep that in mind!!

Sketch Headshot commissions - CLOSED
First of all; it's first come first serve. The first 7 to comment about wanting a slot will get them. Please check the comment section below before making your own comment, I might not be immediate on the update of the journal title once the slots are filled. ---- ---- 15$ sketch headshots no color, but grey fill and some highlighting/minimal shading Anything goes subject wise, human, animal, robot, anthro etc One slot=one headshot Payment is over paypal I'll reply to your comment with a go-ahead to send me your character reference if you've snagged a slot! ---- ---- and, HEY it's been what, since 2018 that I properly opened commissions? And tbf this isn't a proper re-opening just yet, gonna test the waters first, doing commissions on weekends while working on weekdays, so I'm keeping it small and contained for now. Also gonna be interesting to see if impromptu journal-based announcements still work as well as they did before the site update - I used to prefer them over the
Scammer warning and update!
Aight it's been a while, and there's gonna be some stuff to talk about I got notified recently about a scammer using my semblance trying to resell auctions under the premise of the final sale being chanceled - they used the handle "remarim". Filing a complaint was easy enough but I wouldnt be surprised if they just went ahead and made a new account to try again later. Please doublecheck the accounts you get messages from! Also, I'm unfamiliar with the procedure itself but if any of you have gotten note of their paypal information you should be able to file a complaint with paypal itself as well - though again, one of the initial notes I had seen on this scammer claimed they had multiple accounts there as well. So best to still be careful. --- Now with that out of the way, and honestly I'm unsure how many people still read journals, I'll just give a blanket update on where I'm at - I'm currently working fulltime on an indie 2D platformer, video game. On the side I've been
Learning about art - Link dump
Just wanted to put this recommendation list out as a journal post! I've shared my personal Youtube playlist before, but I don't even remember how many years ago that was,, Anyway, here are some channels, YouTubers and resources that have helped me immensely both in mental health and technical learning when it comes to art! ----- Youtube channels: Adam Duff LUCIDPIXUL https://www.youtube.com/user/AdamationStation - gives advice on art; related to mental health when working in the industry Video examples: "How to discover your artistic voice" "Advice for artists who are too hard on themselves" "Taking Breaks Without Sacrificing Artistic Growth (And Avoiding Burnout!)" Ahmed Aldoori https://www.youtube.com/user/revolutions34 - various advice, talks about his own struggles/journey and how he tries to overcome them in his "MEDCAST" series Video examples: "MEDCAST 41: Art Envy "MEDCAST 36: Finding your art path" "MEDCAST 24: Stop Worrying" (Also does drawing
Heyho update
I happened to have a talk with my mother about recent trouble sleeping, and a general feeling of non-stop stress. (woke up a couple of days in a row at 4 a.m and just couldn't fall back asleep at that point)
And she stopped me at some point to say that it all sounds like the beginnings of burn-out (she went through it once in the past, so she recognized the mindset I was in)
I lately have been piling up more and more things of "stuff I want to work on" while gradually becoming less and less productive outside of school (first school year, I still managed to do a commission every weekend or so,, right now? basically nothing). All while I sti
