“Commissions Open” [Animated Music Video]
>>Click here to watch the video on Youtube.<<
This was what I’ve been working on in the past few months. I’m very fond of the idea of turning alot of my satirical ideas (ones that have already been made in comics, and others I haven’t) and turning them into animated music videos.
Consider this to be kinda like a ‘pilot episode’. If it’s received well and has enough support behind it, then I’ll dedicate more time into doing more of em. This particular video (including both the music and animation) took me about 3 months to do, so there’s a fair amount of time investment involved.
I’m refurbishing my public discord server for the purpose of using it to grow a community surrounding this new project. So if you’re interested in more updates in regards the future of this project or getting more involved in the social/moderation/development side of things, feel free to join the discord server (strictly 18 only).

You can now listen to this song on a bunch of music streaming services (Spotify, Tidal, Deezer, Apple & Amazon Music). Just search for my artist name ‘Jahash Wyvern’.

yeah it was broken for the first minute after i uploaded. all fixed though!
The link for youtube just goes to the same post on here?
Geez, that gave me the chills man. I don't think everyone dares to speak of this and sure it's as real as you paint it. Keep it up!
I've seen it happen to a few friends. And yeah its definitely frustrating when they can't seem to escape the cycle.
This is absolutely adorable and I love it
also, why would you attack me like this?

Almost missed this because I thought it was an actual commissions opening post! Loved the video! Super funny. I kept internally yelling, "NO YOU DUMB KOBOLD, DON'T FALL FOR IT AGAIN!"
It's the perfect title, but yeah potentially a tad misleading at first glance :P Glad you enjoyed it.
I've talked to one or two people over the years who'd rather go to a con out of country than pay their rent. Usually followed by the expected "I'm struggling so hard financially please donate to my PayPal" journal.
I'm sure many folks who ask for help this way actually need it but the fact shit like this happens in the first place is astonishing.

Unfortunately yeah it ruins it for people who actually need the help. Some people cry for donations when they clearly were at fault for their own misfortune.
But is it really satire, or a documentary?
Fantastic work!
Fantastic work!
Unless you get thrown into the deepest part of hell to be greeted by a guitar-weilding, money-hungry artist every time you purchase new art, i'd say its more satire than documentary :P
It is gratifying on a level most people don't otherwise experience, getting art made of their characters that is well-received. In my case, I do like the attention, but realize the big lizard (or fat derg, et al.) aren't me, just my tastes and interests in professional illustration. So someone liking a new pic isn't liking me so much as just the talent I hired. I've been able to objectify the practice and become more practical and pragmatic about art patronage.
If I were more addicted to the endorphin rush art can bring, my reduction in financial environment (household now at 40% of its previous budget levels) would be a disaster. The loss that brought it on is devastating, but the resulting reduction or even future absence of new works not felt so tragically. For me, it was a fun ride and I felt good supporting the arts. That part of it I will miss.

Man that was such an impressive animation music video ever see
I know the pain of spending too much on pics, actually had to put limits on my spending for a bit XP Love your art style even in an animated music video.
Definitely true, and it doesn't help when artists charge arms and legs for any comm, making a lot less of the common folk able to afford them. That's an additional problem.
Yeah, both the artist and commisioner are part of the problem. One leads to another and then cycles again.
