Sketch commissions are now available - as stated in my previous journal post the money made from these commissions will go to a close friend who has recently lost his means to work & needs financial support.

There are currently (3/5) slots available - slots are on a first come, first serve basis so if you're interested please send me a message ^^

COMMISSION INFO

The price of these sketch commissions will be $10 (USD).

Sketches will be done in colour & will be completed within 2 weeks of payment. There is a 1 character limit and backgrounds will be simple unless there's an object(s) that directly connect to the subject of the image (e.g. someone sitting down in a chair, leaning against a table etc)

The content that I'll gladly do consists of the following; weight gain, inflation (liquid/air/blueberry), very mild slob.

The content that I will not draw are; extreme slob, scat, gore, underage/minors - if you have any questions about specific characters or other things that I may or may not draw then please ask.

I will be working shortly so don't expect an instant resposne - I'll try and respond my best at work but it's definitely not garaunteed ^^

Repost from my twitter @ https://twitter.com/KyillaKuweeeen

2 weeks ago one of my close friends got into an unfortunate car accident - he came out fairly unscathed but his car was beyond repair. His work is entirely dependent on having his own transportation and without a vehicle he simply cannot work. His insurance has been radio silent on the matter and forking over money for a rental car isn't an option when he barely breaks even with the money he earns. This is not taking into account factors such as fuel and other necessities as food and rent, as well as his medication which he hasn't been able to take for 3 days.

While I didn't want to open up any commissions (as I am in the middle of a long overdue piece), I need to support my friend as he simply has no other options.

From next week Monday (5th July) I'll be opening sketch commissions (around 5 slots to begin with) - $10 a sketch. 100% of the money made will be going towards his necessary expenses.

I myself will also be very busy as I'm about to start 2 weeks straight of working afternoons/evenings to cover for a coworker who got fired until my place finds someone new. It is inconvenient timing to say the least but it's no one's fault and I'll just need to manage my time around those two weeks.

My current commission page is outdated, so if anyone would like to send me a message beforehand to ask me any questions about rules/content or anything else, that's fine by me

Hey all, I haven't properly posted for a long time and there's a mix of reasons for that - as well as other things that I'd like to properly address.

First of all, commissions are still being worked on - there's a couple of people that I know have not recieved a proper progress report or update from me in a month or two and I do apologise for that; my past two slot openings have been me biting off more than I could chew and coupled with my work schedule that recently increased from 5 days a week to 6, it's very difficult to maintain focus and get stuff done. While I cannot promise any ETAs or completion dates, I will continue to make progress on bits wherever I can. I know there's some people who have been waiting for a long time (longer than they should), so I'm more than happy to refund anyone who is not satisfied with waiting any longer.

This kinda segways into my next point about mental health. These past couple of months have felt horrible for me and I am physically and emotionally exhausted. I don't want to get into the specifics of anything, but it's been amplified tenfold by a recent factor - my dog is suffering from severe stomach problems and is unable to digest food properly. I've had her for a good 10 years and she's getting on in age. She's over at the vet getting an X-ray scan to identify the problem but I have a sinking feeling she isn't gonna be with me for much longer. I've had plenty of friends in my life but there's honestly nothing closer to me than both of my my dogs and my own family, and the thought of being without her is painful.

I've been pretty empty for a while now and while I'm not planning on quitting anything that I do (including my art), I've lost a lot of motivation to do anything and I'm pretty much just gliding through each day and shift. I do however have plans for the future and I'll be listing a couple of them below.

~ Closing commissions until further notice: Even after my current load is complete, I really don't intend on opening any more commission-related work for a while. I've burdened myself with too much work and burdened others with having to wait a ludicrous amount of time for anything.

~ "Moving" over to Twitter: I don't plan on closing this account or really abandoning it. However, with the site changes made to DeviantArt it feels horrible and Twitter is just much easier for me to use and work with. I'll post full pieces on both accounts, but if you want to see sketches and RTs of other artist's work, follow me at https://twitter.com/KyillaKuweeeen. Once I do get back to opening commissions up, I'll be announcing them on twitter.

~ Committing more time to improvement: As time goes on I always look back at my previous at works and wonder how I can improve on them - right now I want to focus on doing dynamic/different poses and proper background work, and experimenting with other stuff. I'm also considering changing my general art software from Krita to something else, but I'm unsure yet.

Thank you for understanding (whether you're cool with it or not). I should be alright, honestly speaking - but I'm going through a bad time right now. I plan on taking a large chunk of time away from my IRL job which will allow me to properly rest and think about everything.

Hey all, this is for anyone awaiting commission progress! My monitor is pretty much unusuable (it was a very old monitor and I didn't replace it when I got my new PC a couple of months back) - the screen resolution has permanently f'd up and the subtle monitor shadowing that existed before has now made doing art terrible. I have tried resetting drivers in order to see if that works but unfortunately it ain't happening. I'll need to invest into a new monitor and unfortunately I currently don't have enough. I'd like to open a couple more commission slots but I already have a lot of commission work on my plate and I don't want to put myself under that pressure - I'll need to wait till my next paycheck which will be around August 15th. I do apologise for the delay but this is unfortunately out of my control. Again, I don't really want to open emergency commissions since I already have 6 commissions I need to get through, but I'll be thinking over it tonight and deciding what I'd like to do. thank you all for being patient https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/524056022168502284/739147832807784589/image0.jpg

Decided I'd condense the previous commission page here, as there was a lot of unnecessary fluff on there.

In terms of prices, the current prices for commissions are; Fully coloured and shadeded image: $30 Flat colours with lineart: $20 Sketch image (with or without rough colours): $10

Additional costs consist of $5 per additional character and $10 per additional part (for sequence/multi-part commissions). Backgrounds and complex outfits are no extra cost but will take additional time.

Rules / Guidelines

I am generally fine with most weight-gain related subjects, but I will not draw the following; Scat, Major Slob, BHM, Minor/Child Characters, Gore. Payment method is exclusively Paypal, and payment must be made before commission progress starts. When sharing payment information, please do not share any addresses or emails outside of notes or private DMs. <3

Additional Information

It varies from situation from situation, but average commission completion time will be within 2 weeks. If any IRL situations arise that will extend this completion time, I will let you know.
