hello. if you're viewing my page, you might be wondering about my portrait/commissions.
So, I've got something to say about that:
********** My commission rules are changing. ***********
What do you mean by that, zxxo?
My life is hectic. It is disorganized, bombards me, I live in China, I'm constantly doing something different or going somewhere. Seldom do I get days alone to work quietly on art.
That being said, I am no longer charging money for commissions. My commissions are now PAYMENT OPTIONAL for all people.
There is no such thing as "opened" or "closed" commissions from me.
Why? I disappear sometimes. Sometimes I have time, sometimes I don't. If I agree to do a work for you, I will specifically tell you that I can try, and that "try" means what you think it means. If I have time, if I can, if I'm not tired, if I'm feeling it, I'll do it.
How do we commission you, then?
Whisper me on Marking or Za on Furcadia. If I'm online, I am at my computer. Offline messages are fine, put me on your Pounce and leave a msg. You can also do dA notes (dA is the least likely place I'll see it) or Skype @ zxxo2009. I do not AFK but if I don't respond, i might've stepped out or just not seen it. Say something along the lines of, "Hey Marking, can you draw something for me?" Something you've always wanted done, art, a port, it depends.
Won't this cause a bombardment of whispers and requests for you???!!!
I'm hoping not. I tend to be a kind person to anyone and I just feel like taking money for commissions has hindered me instead of helped me. I never liked the transaction part of doing ports so PAYING ME IS UP TO YOU. If you want to pay me, I will provide you my PayPal or you can give me digos, Dragonscales, I don't care. I REALLY DO NOT CARE ABOUT THE MONEY.
Your (ports/art/etc) is so good! I must pay you!
Up to you.
What about right now? Are you on right now?
I'm working on many things art related right now, so your best bet to get art from me is to just whisper me, ask me, and see how I respond.
Zxxo, I asked you for art a while ago but it's unfinished. Are you still going to do it?
This happens to me a lot and if you still have a port from me you want me to finish, don't feel shy to whisper me. Please do. I feel bad that it's happened and I just want to make everyone happy, even the people i still owe ports from. Also don't be shy to whisper me several times, talk to me to remind me, or tell me what needs to be fixed on your port/art. I appreciate open communication and I'm sorry to anyone that I've done this to! This is partly why I'm doing "commissions" for free. I hate doing that to people, and without the money as a hinder, I feel MUCH better doing art for people. Money always felt so heavy and made me stressed out that someone was WAITING with their MONEY for me. and I hate that. so please, please, I'm so sorry if you're still waiting.
That should be all.
TL;DR IS WRITTEN IN BOLD.
