Hi there! Just wondering-- since you're open again, am I good to re-request the three recolors I had asked for in this post? c:

I'm so sorry for the wait. I expected to have your recolors done today but I am just so incredibly stressed today with all the lease stuff we needed to do and the new landlords and I just... I need to take a break this evening. I am hoping to have something tomorrow for you.

I will have an update for you on this asap, I'm sorry for the delay. As I just told Riptide, we just dealt with some lease / landlord stress and I'm just not emotionally here at the moment so I need to calm down first. As for the other commission, my TOS has a section on that; If you’d like to commission me for another item, all previous commissions must be uploaded and paid in full. This includes delivery of the item copy. This specifically applies to new commissioners / people I haven't worked with and don't know personally or have grown a working relationship! So please wait until this one is finished and onsite before asking for another! TY!

Yes! Absolutely. There will be a little bit of a delay on this, but I will message you in a day or two when I'm ready to start! C:

That's fine! Please take your time and do it whenever you're ready :D Thank you!

I hope I'm not prying, but regarding what you told Riptide and Bug, I hope you're able to calm down and relax this evening and get yourself into a better headspace c:

Take care and please take your time! Your health is very important and I don't mind waiting for stuff at all.

And... welp I should have double-checked the TOS. Thanks for pointing it out, that's totally fine with me.

Username: Trithie Request: Based on the Love and Lemons Guava top. Ref image 2, Ref image 3. Obviously the lace detailing can be simplified at your discretion. I'd like the bottom hem of the shirt to be tighter to the body and not slightly loose like on the models. And if it could be sheer/no lining in the body of the shirt, that would be excellent I'm probably pushing my luck here- I was wondering if for an extra fee I could get a sleeveless version and a version with long sleeves? idk I just really love both. But if I have to pick one, I'd prefer the sleeveless version. Changes: n/a Item image: I am... bad at this part. The best I can think of is maybe a bunny like this guy with a scrap of the lace in a bow around his ear? Offer: USD. I thiiiink these are in line with your TOS, but let me know if I'm totally out to lunch with these offers:

  1. Just the sleeveless version: 30-35?
  2. Sleeved and sleeveless version: 45-50? Other: First colour would be white, something along the lines of Have you read my TOS?: yes

So I've spent a lot of time trying to figure out why this item just isn't looking right, and I think I've found the problem but it requires some editing and I know what I want may not be what you want SO. Here is what it currently looks like; LINK I think the item image is fine / done if you approve of it, but the shape of the wearable just really is looking a bit off to me. I think this can be solved easily by me changing the shape of the zipper so it's less of a straight angle like this; / and making it fold more against the fabric itself, and have more of a slight zig-zag shape. It's not a big edit / hard edit so don't worry if you feel like it's extra work because it's just a couple minutes of effort. But if you like it the way it is, I also want to give you the option to keep it this way too. So please let me know what you prefer. C:

I am still learning how to do really thin filigree items like this, and it is definitely not something I have perfected by any means, especially with light colored items like this. I'm am extremely worried I will not be able to accomplish the look you're after, or the delicate nature of the design. So I unfortunately don't think I can accept your commission. I would really hate to give you experimental work that you end up unhappy with. :C

I see what you mean; it does look like the zipper is too rigid right now. In real life, even though it's metal the zipper would still be flexible and would bend against the shape of the face. I think that is what you're referring to, right? Cuz in that case I agree, making it bend a bit in the middle of the zipper would definitely help it look less flat.

That said, I love the shading you've been doing on the zipper so far. The mask itself is made of fabric though - I apologize if it's not right for me to comment on this yet - It just looks very shiny right now, sort of like leather, but I know it's still a work in progress of course "^^

I can work on making the mask look less shiny for sure n_n Sometimes with small items my shading style can definitely look too shiny so I'll fix that up when I tweak the zipper! And you're definitely fine letting me know stuff like this! It's the kind of feedback I'm looking for to make sure the item is something you're interested in still =PP I am going to try to get another update to you on this much more quickly this time. This week my husband has been at home from work and it's been distracting lol.

I'm not in any rush - and I mean, I'm really busy myself too so I understand sometimes it takes a day or two to get back to people. I'm quite guilty of it myself. So no worries at all.

This is a very dramatic change, so please tell me if you don't like it. I know some commissioners don't always appreciate when I do this and I absolutely don't mean to be disrespectful in anyway but sometimes my creative process requires me to start from scratch so things look right. No matter how hard I tried, I couldn't get the shading or anything on the other version to look right and I try my best to deliver a product I am proud of, which wasn't happening. I will 100% understand if you don't like this, and prefer the previous version though. Please be honest with me, as I want you to get something you are happy with, and not something you're settling with n_n'' LINK There is a version with and without the little latch for the zipper because I wasn't sure if it looked better with or without. Hopefully I've resolved the shininess issue as well. I know sometimes my artwork looks that way and I struggle to get the softness other artists have OTL

This is tough... I do think you've improved the texture to look more like fabric rather than shiny leather. It still looks a bit too smoothly textured however, whereas fabric will have a bit more... imperfection/irregularity in the folds, perhaps? And it might have more folds/crinkles because it's a more flexible material. (Does that help?)

I dislike that the mask is so much bigger though, I would like if you could make it smaller and not have the mask part stretch to the ears - I think the previous shape was closer to what I want.

I appreciate your efforts and I'm really glad you gave it a try.
