Okay guys, I never liked the idea of commissions but I find myself in a terrible position right now.
I have had a minimum wage job 1-2 days a week for the last three, four? too many years while I have lived with my grandmother and taken care of her at home, as she hasn't been able to walk or take care of herself. She is currently 103 years old and I've lived with her practically all my life.
I now find myself in the horrible position of being told she only has a month to live and that we will be stopping her medicine come tomorrow.
That being the case, I have absolutely no money to help bury her when the time comes. She has a funeral plot, but that's all.
It's going to be very expensive and I don't know what else to do besides try and earn some money on here.
I write too, on fanfiction, but drawing something is easier for me unless it's like, Magic Kaito/Detective Conan, which I can typically write out a one shot/two shot of in 8 or so hours. I can probably do a few others but it would depend on how well I know the story.
I know I'm not as great as some of the artists out there, and I have little idea how to do any of this(as well as now relying off my laptop which doesn't have great color and is a lot harder to draw on than my tower computer which now needs a new hard drive since the one with windows on it decided to die on me for a third time), but I DO have a paypal which will be able to take real money which I can use/move to a savings account or something for at least having something.
So all my commissions will be for cash, not points or anything
If anyone has any other ideas on how I can raise money for a funeral, please contact me.
My mother was thinking of putting something out in the paper but none of us know how to do it and it's a bit of a dying medium.
As far as prices for anything, tell me what you want and how much you think it will be. If need be, I'll quote you my own back. And heck, it sounds stupid to me but if anyone knows how to do a fundraiser kind of thing I'd like to know how to do that too.
I'm not sure about prices on Fanfiction as much as I am on drawing commissions so that all might depend on the length/subject.
Thank you for your time, and sorry about reaching out like this. I just am not sure what else to do.
