Struggling as a artist and need some help

I honestly didn’t want to write this but I am honestly  in desperate need of help. This year has been incredibly difficult and Im struggling financially for this month. My store has not been running well at all since I created it and I’ve tried all sorts of changes to SEO, titles and descriptions and cannot get much traction on it.

Commissions have been quite dry on the whole ( Most likely because a mix of AI and the economy) And convention season doesn’t start until late this month. Its quite upsetting as I love drawing and painting a lot and I put a lot of effort and time into this craft with little returns which is something  that doesn’t bother me too much nowadays as long as I can pay my living expenses. Anyways I don’t want to go too much of a emotional rant here, so Im doing a discount on my Etsy store 35% off all my items, you can get it on check out with the code ‘THANKYOUALL26’. My etsy link is etsy.com/shop/timkongart Im also available doing some commissions, I can do a illustration like this with no background  and can get one out for £70. I have four slots available.

I have a Ko-fi if you’d like to support me without having to buy something specific 

https://ko-fi.com/timkongart For those who can’t afford it but would like to support me, please spread the word by sharing this post if possible.

Thank you for reading up to this point and I really appreciate any help. I honestly feel very sad and embarrassed that I have to do this.

This was a fun and challenging illustration to work on! I love FF7. Like many other it is my favourite RPG game (especially the OG version) and I really wanted to do it justice when making a illustration. Im also going to make this a A3 print! If you're interested Im doing a pre-order on my store. Check out my store and feel free to share as it really helps out.

Aerith! Ahh our dear girl. I tried to implement a bit of the lifestream onto the artwork as I think its a big aspect of her character in the series. Some WIPS of the pieces below. This one stayed pretty consistent from start to finish.

Tifa lockhart fanart! Big fan of OG ff7 when I was a kid, really enjoyed the remake series despite the bloat. It was like reliving that moment again many moons ago. Ive been making some fanart of the seris since. Here's one of Tifa, really wanted to embody her outward strength in this piece. Below are some some sketches and early wips, the initial doodle can look quite jank and somewhat ugly, but the gesture is what counts.. at least that what i tell myself :D.

I'm so sorry for having to make a post like this, it honestly feels really terrible and I really hate the fact that I somehow got myself into this situation in the first place and having to resort to essentially E-begging. But any support would be incredible and I also have a Ko-fi page availbe too at: https://ko-fi.com/timkongart

This is my first and hopefully last time I'll ever have to make a post like this, I really do hope that is the case. Thank you to anyone who's read up to this point and for any given! Kind regards, Tim
