Happy Holidays!
Message Issues
Obviously, if I can't see or access my messages, I can't answer them either. So if anybody's messaged me or anything, that's why I haven't responded. Given the number of messages I already have, and the assumption it will at least be another day or two, it's safe to assume it will probably be at least a few days--probably more--before I actually see and can respond to any messages. Unless they get deleted, though, I will answer eventually.
I honestly don't get enough comments that I expect this to be a big issue, but just in case, I thought I'd alert people.
Ceasing General Requests Indefinitely
There are a few reasons for this, but the main one is training myself. When I initially started doing requests, I was reasonably happy with my work. Moreover, I had seen people charging various forms of currency for significantly worse work. The latter is still true, but the former is definitely not. I've gotten to the point where I'm pleased with little to nothing about a lot of my last few pieces. So, I'm going to go ahead and focus on improving my skills, finding and learning from more tutorials, studying, and so forth.
Suggestions and feedback are welcome, of course. Wish me luck!

Mavrosh or Aeirmid.How has a fellow deviant impacted your life?
When I originally joined dA, it was because I liked looking at the art and wanted to collect it, plus I couldn't see most pieces in detail (or if they contained nudity) without a membership. As I spent more time around the site, I began to realize that I might actually be able to create some on my own, which I've always wanted to do.
I remain uncertain as to how successful this was, but I've enjoyed the journey nonetheless.What are your preferred tools to create art?
Photoshop, Daz Studio 4, and a Wacom BambooWhat is the most inspirational place for you to create art?
