BIG New Years Update - Whats to Come

HAPPY NEW YEARS AND WHATNOT TO ALL OF YOU! :bademoticon:

To reflect on 2015, I guess its been an alright year. A few ups & downs here & there to be sure, especially with the real life events that have been happening since before Halloween. Positively speaking, I was able to keep my new years resolution after all though, that I successfully made an animation in the form of a gif without any hitches! And if you haven't seen it yet you should - its adorable.

However, there were many other things I wanted to create that I haven't even been able to start on yet; long overdue portfolio pieces and original content being one of them. I'm really hoping this will be the year that my productivity will be improved, and one of the biggest reasons is the start of my personal commissions. Many times I've started that I will start commissions of my own someday and I aim to do so this year, but since it'll be a first for me on this site its left me nervous about making a good first impression on how expensive I should make myself, since I know I'm not really one of the greatest artist on DA.

Because, I'll be honest - if I was, I'd be a lot faster.

Regardless, MANY things to look forward too in the upcoming month, and they are as follows -

Commissions will be starting very soon, as I've almost completed my price chart. Reason its taking me so long to post it is because I'm making it interactive! You'll see what I mean once its uploaded. Also making sure that my base prices are reasonable, after researching how other artist do paid commissions. I think I have a good enough grasp on how I should sell my work.

I plan to start a Twitter page sometime in the near future as well, but I do wish to hear from you guys if its worth making an account for. Originally I wished to use it as a branch for people outside of DA to order commissions from me, but I'm unsure if Twitter will be the best place to advertise something like that. I was told Instagram would be a better option due to its picture sharing so I'm putting that into consideration for now.

This is the year I plan to also start expanding my art styles. While designing art for projects like Fiona Frightening are still gonna keep me busy, Portfolio related pieces will be a bit more apparent on my page in the form of original characters, and possibly 3D renders in general. Have to practice some more on it though so it'll be quite some time still before I can present that kind of art.
