hey man what the fuck is happening

i made my fursona wax, the deinonychus, in spore [2008]

i also peeled him

what's up everyone, didn't expect to hit this absolutely unfathomable milestone so soon. i don't have anything prepared and i still have hundreds of requests left to do, so don't expect that. perhaps i will use this post to talk to you all a little bit with my asks off. more info under the cut.

i've received a lot of requests over time for me to try and do spore creature commissions. while this isn't on the visible horizon, it is something i might consider for the future if there is genuine interest for such a thing.

i'm by nature mostly opposed to the idea of making money from spore creations, not due to their quality but due to their origin. spore is something i do for fun because i love this game, not because i want to make a living from it.

if, in the end, i do decide to go through and allow spore creature commissions, i'd like you all to say in the comments what you think they'd be worth. i'd take all suggestions into consideration. maybe add-ons [forcing it to be vanilla friendly, using specific mods, etc] or price suggestions, donations to charities, etc.

i likely will not do spore commissions, but i felt like addressing it firsthand. glaxusplaxus has brought up the important notion that it is a legal grey area.

if you do want to support me regardless, i do have a ko-fi where you can make donations. i do not expect anyone to donate, but am throwing it out there for those who may extend their kind hands.

aside from that, feel free to use this post as an ask box with my asks currently being closed. if you have any questions or anything you want to say, i will do my best to answer.

have a good timezone, fellow sporians

has your process changed at all now that you regularly show the peeled versions as well?

nope - process is the same, peels come after the finished creature. peels have to be done when it is complete because i often adjust the body and limbs a lot during the decorating process, so a "pre-peel" won't be accurate to the final creature. as a bonus here's a video of me peeling dorahm
