Baja ⭐ @ BACKERKIT PINTOPIA

I have to get camera and security system set up this week found out they are coming with where they can visit my house..

This is going to cost me $$$+

I'm safe, but I'm worried about my home and pets... My neighbors are sadly not reliable people.

This blown over a 100 likes for an commission not commission hecking thank you so much!!

I try to do gifts for those who donate a lot as a thank you it's not something I can do all the time but I try my best when I can!

Thank you again everyone.

I just wish there was a place where I belonged I just don't feel good enough 4/4

I loved working with them, the best skilled artists, who were kind and sweet. Hardworking and amazing at what they do.

They deserve better
3/4

That are pretty severe so I'm trying to cope the best that I can.

So thank you for checking in and just being amazing. I cried a lot today because I really cared so did everyone who got removed we put our souls into this for little in return because we loved doing this for the community 2/4

This has been a real.. shitty day

But thank you to everyone who has shown support it really means a ton

I've had medical appts all week long and this was supposed to be time for me to relax and then this happened..

For those who don't know I'm disabled and I also have mental health issues 1/4

Wishing you the best of luck on sales and getting good homes for all of your creatures!

Reminder that all my bases are available for limited commercial use! You can use them to make and sell adoptables as well as YCH slots, have fun ⭐

Only if we had the money, experience, more staff and dedicated 10k+ attendees

This hurts I wasn't as on as long as ArtSea but it's been crushing to be let go of a con that we've deeply cared for dedicated hours and days of discussions to see how to make everything better for attendees,sponsors and everyone.. we put our whole hearts and souls to just be tossed out it hurts

“Not on par” is probably THE WORST way to be rejected by a convention or any art event

Whoever wrote this needs to realize that people put SO MUCH work and passion into their art and saying that is DISCOURAGING!

I’ll never understand why people need to bring down others in order to feel good

I love experimenting with different merch and mediums!

Even animation!

I've done artwork for some large signage!

Mainly Pony but I can draw creatures and other topics too!

Hi new followers

I'm an disabled artist usually a convention artist volunteering full time for conventions art teams...

But seeing how 2 orgs sees my work as not "on par"we lost two events that make up most of our income for the year

Im looking to volunteer for more cons to provide artwork for

Our*

Reapplying was basically just to get her names in the records. It was always treated like that

Of course I say practically because we all were planning for next year. Just waiting for our contracts to secure everything

Thing is we were all practically approved for this year. We were all in the proper chats and everything until like yesterday

*NOT ON PAR sorry brain stupid

**. Not on par

Thank you so much it means a lot, I just want to make people happy volunteering my time to orgs is what my life passion is.. having them tell me my free dedication is on par hurts so bad.

Thank you so so much for your kindness it means more than you know your work is amazing too!!

But it's not enough unfortunately,
I'm trying so hard, I've been stressed out so much over everything from backerkit to con prep and applications.

I see the suitcases we packed for next week and I'm hoping we can make a certain amount.. I'm hoping so so badly

Ive applied to big cons even general huge cons.. I know we have little to no chance of getting in

Applied for small local ones
Applied to so many events it makes peoples heads spin.

We been wait-listed or rejected from majority of them especially furry.

I'm thankful for mcfc DD 🙏

I mean same 🤔

What the hell am I going to do
We depended on 2 events and boom

Both because my work was "on par"

Somehow someway both were for the SAME REASON.

-
How am I supposed to make most of the years income now??

HOW!? I'm so scared right now

🫂 ( hug emote if it doesn't work on PC)

You've done fantastic work I'm so sorry this has happened to you this is incredibly unfair to yourself and everyone who was on the team..

We collectively done nothing but show our love and care into this and now for no reason got treated poorly
