HEYHEYHEYYYYY everyone 8D


soooo I've been on hiatus quite a bit other than for brief comment/note-replies and deviation-checking, not much has been updated and I'm sorry for my absence =w=;
Slowly but surely I'm knocking out my commissions one by one as hurriedly, but neatly as I can -- which reminds me, I DO have a commission-announcement, lol:
ALL GAIA COMMISSIONERS -- please note that I must finished STANDARD COMMISSIONS FIRST before I can do my Gaia commissions. I know that normally I work on a first-come-first-serve basis, but since I'm getting paid REAL [sounds so awkward] money for the standard commissions, Gaia commissions will temporarily have to be on hold until further notice -- it doesn't mean that I won't be working on them [just not as steadily] or won't be taking any more, I just need to get the standard ones done first.

OKAY so now that THAT'S out of the way... I will continue to be on hiatus as best as possible because this website is so terribly distracting D: But all commissioners if you DO have any questions please note me or send me an email at ichinomiya_sensei@yahoo.com

plzplzPLZZZ commissioners, do NOT send me notes/emails asking for progress on the commission. Those of you with dA accounts, you can follow up your commission progress by checking my journals, I will try to update them as frequently as possible. Noting or emailing me asking if I've started on your commission is very vexing because it's a waste of my time... I will not take a commission if I know I cannot work on it.
Please remember that I work two part-time jobs and I'm raising a kid. Sadly I cannot spend every waking minute in front of the computer to do my artwork as I used to, so please bear with me I really am trying do balance my work schedules as best as I can to ensure that I can get your works done. But asking me how often I work on it or if I've started it is not acceptable anymore; I promise that it WILL get done, but unless you absolutely need it ASAP, don't expect it to pop out within the next few days of you asking me. Thank you.


SO ABOUT THAT HIATUS >:C


sorry, things keep popping into my head as I type that I feel is important everyone should know... XD I hope I'm not making myself sound like a real asshole or anything because I'm not trying to be rude, just straight-forward, which is something I do best, but often more times than not makes me come off as an ass...




So it looks like I won't be going to Jacon this year either =^=; I'm shipping myself off to DE to attend my best friend's wedding which happens to be smack dab in the middle of Jacon XD so I can't go sadly... BUT NEXT YEAR!!! *fist pump* [hasn't gone in the last two years]
oh and I'll still be going to AFO and Metro... hopefully XD;;


okaaay sorry to bore you with all this nonsense XD;
