Taking A Few More Commissions

1 min read

Hello everyone!

I'll be taking a few more commissions. I've managed to complete a total of eight different ideas from last month's batch. However, I still have two left, which are currently in the work in progress stages.

If anyone is interested, I'll leave a link to my commission sheet down below:

By the way, if you have DISCORD, you can me your ideas and references over there. You can send me a friend request by putting in my username: alexanderlr

I'm Feeling Ready To Do Commission Again!

1 min read

Hello everyone!

Ever since January, my head wasn't in the right place due to struggling with the serious case of the art blocks. In doing so, I ended up a refunding back the money from last commission announcement. Thankfully, I'm slowly getting back to drawing and I'm in a good position to be accepting commissions again!

Commissions are now officially open!

UPDATE: 4/4/2024 - 11:03 AM

Surprisingly. I was able to knock out a whole bunch of these new orders. So far, I've completed eight commissions and I only have two orders left (one work in progress and other I haven't started yet)!

I'm So Sick And Tired Of These Bots!

2 min read

I just want to get this off my chest and say that I'm getting sick and tired of these bots messaging me everyday saying the same exact thing(s)!

"Hi, I really like your posts, I would make such an amazing mural out of it for a project I’m working on for a client if you don’t mind me using one of your pictures. Rest assured you will be getting a compensation amount upfront, are you down?"

Another one that I tend to see is "Hi, I’m thinking of using one of your picture as inspiration muse for art working I’ll be in working on. You’ll be getting paid and credit."

Ever since I came back to deviantART and started being more active on the platform, I keep on getting these annoying and repetitive messages from different "people". I tried blocking these accounts, but it doesn't really help since a new one just pops up.

This is a very serious issue and it's effecting everyone's experience here on deviantART....It's unfortunate that another platform known as X (formerly known as Twitter) is experiencing a similar issue where bots depicted as OnlyFans accounts have been leaving comments on newly submitted posts.

I know that finding a resolution to this problem will take some, but I'll continue to block these accounts while flagging their unwanted messages as spam. It's nice to know that many of these bots have been mass reported while their accounts have taken down for violating dA's policies.

Opening Commissions Again - Short In Cash

2 min read

Hello everyone!

I'm going to be opening my commissions again. Once I provide my check (two months of owed rent) to my landlord, my balance will leave with only a few hundred dollars to my name, which will be difficult to budget within two weeks.

I'll be needing some extra cash/funds until I'll receive my next paycheck, which won't happen until February 1st.

I'll be opening four slots, but I'll adding a few restrictions to help boost the competition time on the commissions that I'll be working. One of them will involve a limitation of the amount of characters you can request, which will be two for now.

By the way, I do want to mention that I do have three pending commissions on my previous queue. Thankfully, all three of them are already sketched out.

AnimatedBrawls20 - Rough Sketch
@/z3lda1231 (Twitter) - Rough Sketch
Anonymous (deviantART user) - Rough Sketch

Here's a separate list of open slots. By the way, it will take some time to get everyone's idea, but I'll try my best to get them as soon as I can. In addition, I posted my latest commission sheet at the very bottom of this journal entry.

@TheWesternEast - 1 Character (Half Body) - Clean Sketch
@/michaeltanzer (Twitter) - 1 Character (Full Body) - Quick Sketch
@zap1992 - 2 Characters (Half Body) - Clean Sketch
@/ADude57958225 (Twitter) - Slot Reserved
