To all my friends, commissioners, and idle viewers.

Sorry for the lack of arts and streaming, I have been sick for the last week, and it is clinging tenaciously to me even as we speak. I am hoping this ends soon.

Thank you all for your friendship and support, as usual, help is appreciated.

Mune Sol/Muniversal/Inkwell Tailbrush, whatever have you.

To my commissioners, past present and future.

First of all, i want to apologize, and let you all know that I have not forgotten any of you. I may be terrible with names, but I remember the commissions. And I wanted to say that I am sorry. Sorry that you all have had to wait for your art as long as you have had, and that some people may be losing their faith in me because of the delays.
Please let me explain the current situation, to let you all have an idea as to how and why my art has been slow to come as of late. Due to situations beyond my control, I have to struggle not only with the usual monthly finances, but also with medical bills and the ongoing menace of student loans.

I work a normal, if somewhat enjoyable 9-5 job at a call center. (technically 10:30 AM to 7 PM, but that is neither here nor there) and I live far from my work. Far enough that I have to drive over an hour there, and an hour back every day. Even with this full time job though, I still need to supplement my income with commissions. As you can guess, working full time with a commute like that, leaves me limited time to work on both backlog and what is needed for additional funds. I am looking into alternative funding sources, such as Patreon, but in order for that to work, I need to produce things for that as well, and you can understand the difficulties there.
And to further aggravate the situation, medical issues (anxiety) and hardware problems (computer is starting to die) is adding to the delays. I am not trying to rip anybody off, and I am working on getting everything scheduled and set up so that I can work on the backlog while getting enough funds to keep things flowing in a positive fashion, it's just hard to figure out with everything currently going for me.

I will say however that my job is going well, and if it does keep going in this fashion, hopefully I'll be able to make enough soon that I can focus on my backlog, or have more time to be able to work on art overall. I won't know that however for another month or two.

So, once more, I want to say I am sorry that you all have been waiting for so long, and hanging in suspense with very little from me. I have no intention to be unreliable, and I know that I'm not doing a good job at preventing this image, due to scheduling issues and anxiety breakdowns. All I ask is for patience and your continued support, as a lot of you have been giving me thus far. Please continue to aid me and I will deliver my promises to you all, even if they may not be as quickly as either I or you may have hoped.

Thank you once again from the bottom of my heart, for your patience in reading this, and your patience with me as well. Best of wishes to all of you with this new year.

The Special Auction ends at Midnight Tonight!

And now to reveal some bonuses you can have for your comics, should the bidding get high enough.

For every $50 over the initial $50, you can get an upgrade to your comic, of your choice. Shading, Better Lineart, or more detailed backgrounds. You can get one upgrade for each increase.

So, for example, at 100, you can improve the lineart, and 150, you can have the improved lineart and shading, and at 200, you can have improved lineart, shading, and the backgrounds.

And as a special thank you for any comics that break 200, they will also get a higher resolution, allowing for far more detail, uping it from the Sketch quality of 72 dpi to 300 dpi or more as the commissioner may want.

So keep that in mind with your bidding, here! www.furaffinity.net/view/23253…

I wish you all the best of luck with your comic desires and dreams!

Due to the impending move, needing to get bills paid and also needing to buy furniture, I am starting a special offer.

Offering 10 slots for 4 panel colored comics starting at Sketch Quality and increasing in quality with the amount paid. Each bidding slot starts at $50! (That’s $12.50 per slot) Work on the comics will start as of May 15th, once I am settled into my new home.

The comics can not contain scat, watersports, or pedophilia. I will work with you to give you the best product but I reserve the right to refuse content if it makes me all squidgy.

Bidding started as of 2:34 PM Tuesday, and will end as of Midnight, Eastern Standard Time as of Wednesday Night, due to the urgency of the situation.

The higher the amount paid, the higher the priority the comic will be given in the queue. There will be 10 auctions below, reply to the auction you want to bid on. You may bid on multiple auctions if you want to.

All auctions are to be paid via PayPal, and if you win, I will message you to get your PayPal Address to send an invoice to. The comics must be paid for as soon as possible, preferably as of Friday.

Bidding will occur on Furaffinity, here: www.furaffinity.net/view/23253…

Thank you for your consideration in this, and I wish you all the best of luck!
