Hey all, it's that crappy time that nobody likes to hear about: The time where I have to raise my prices because they're no longer sustainable. They've been the same for about two years now, so this is kind of overdue. I tried not to go too overboard, but for the amount of time I've been putting into things lately, my prices have been just plain insufficient to cover life expenses, much less taxes. I'm in the red on those for the third year running, now, and I really need to turn that around. I'll still be tweaking them a little bit in the coming weeks, but they shouldn't change too terribly much from where they presently are. In other news, I recently started a weekly Boss Rush Friday sketch promotion on my Tumblr and the first week was a big success! I had some holes in my budget to fill, so I did three days' worth and it was a hell of a lot of fun, even if I need to adjust my times a bit. I said $30 for 30 minutes but they turned out to be closer to 45-50 minutes. But I also haven't been drawing all that much in recent weeks (I fell down the basement stairs closer to the beginning of the month and was kind of coming down from that). Here are some of the results: Proportions kind of go out the window when I'm in a hurry, which is a sign that I need to bone up on my gesture drawing. But this has been good practice, and people seem happy with what they've been getting, so it's something I'm going to continue doing.
If this interests any of you, you can check out the Tumblr post and fill out an inquiry form. I'll be doing four of these every Friday starting at 10am Central time. I think that's about it for important updates. Sorry that I don't post here that much, I just tend to be more attentive to my social media accounts. As always, you can catch me on Tumblr, Twitter, and Instagram if you'd like to see what I'm up to more frequently! Comments are closed.
