Rough Animation Commissions - [2 SLOTS] + Updates

Hello again!

In the hopes of improving my animation skills, I am opening up short animation commissions. These animations will not be coloured, but will contain a painted background of a scene of your choosing.

The animation will contain:

20-40 sketchy frames
a painted background of your choosing (I can shade the inside of the animation if the background is too distracting)
an action of your choosing

My asking price is $11.00 for one animation.

This must be sent through PayPal. I don't accept Deviant Art points, unfortunately.
You will receive:
One animated .GIF (probably 600x600 or larger)
 One .AVI video of the animation
 The .PSD file if you ask

Some areas that I would like to explore when it comes to animation are:
• Extreme anger or rage
• Bouncy motion or exaggerated movements
• Heavy characters or implied weight

Here are some examples of what you should expect:

   

Some examples of other recent animations:

 


I will not animate overly complicated characters or characters that have excessive props or clothing!
Please comment below with a reference sheet of your character and all the details that I will need when creating this animation.

Updates

    It's been a while since I posted any kind of update, but rest assured that I've found some sort of cozy place and schedule to endure life's happenings. I've been working through my summer university courses slowly, and through plenty of interviews have found a job for the next semester. I'll be working for the government creating geodatabases and updating existing databases or tailoring them for specific purposes. An office job, but it's what I've come to expect when it comes to being a wage slave.

    I've had little motivation to do anything art-related for the longest time, and haven't logged into Deviant Art for a few months. Pardon if I left you hanging on a response or anything urgent, sometimes things get dropped before I remember to mention it.

    But, after spending time thinking about my future and wondering what I really want out of life, I've decided to try my hand at art again. I accept the fact that I may not be the best, nor ever will be, but if I were to die tomorrow all the thoughts and ideas I have would die with me. That's something that may be exaggerated a bit, but it would crush me to never in my life be able to express my ideas to others. And the path that takes me to that final goal includes practising and hard work.

    I have been working on a side project including POLYRASTER work. I have deleted all POLYRASTER related work on my TheJiggyMonster account here because POLYRASTER is not part of the same theme that TheJiggyMonster is, and my watchers likely aren't interested in it (which is fine and I have no hard feelings against that). If you would like to see more of my POLYRASTER work, I can privately link you what I've been working on.

    Emotionally, I've been feeling drained. My life is sedentary at best, and really only consists of the bare minimum of what's expected of me, yet I find myself tired all the time and feeling too heavy to do anything more than sleep or sit at my computer. I want to blame my anaemia for that, but I feel like that would be a convenient scapegoat. Perhaps there is an underlying cause that I don't care to discover, or haven't got the motivation to fix. I've thought about seeking help more than once, but I have always cancelled my appointments days before actually visiting. Perhaps it's a downward spiral of confusion, denial, acceptance, search for help, seclusion, and finally numbness. I'll stop here, this isn't a personal blog, haha.

    I want to thank you for your continued support both here and on other sites. Your encouragement and input has greatly influenced my growth as an artist and a person, and I could never repay you for that. I hope I can continue to create for you now and in the future.
