My last few Gaia commissions have been really challenging, and I feel like I've learned a lot. Looking from the time when I started taking gg commissions...
...Actually, y'know what?
I feel like I've forgotten things.
I don't know why.

I've improved my CG coloring in the past three years, I think.
But other than that, I feel like I've forgotten things.
I know in my head it's just that I haven't had the request to do a certain thing,
but it feels like I've just forgotten it and I don't do it anymore
(even though I know I can.)

...Sorry, I've been emo lately.

Anyway, I'm not going to be taking Gaia commissions for a while.
I need to be applying to grad school and making a portfolio.
I need to work on architecture again.
If I have Gaia commissions going on at the same time, I feel obligated to give them some level of priority, since there's another person on the end of this deal instead of the abstract concept of a portfolio or application. Which means architecture is just something to do until after dinner when the real work starts on the commission.
That is not going to fly.

Besides, it's been a while since I could do art for myself and not feel guilty.

So no more commissions until after the portfolio's done and submitted.
The 5k Kiriban, however, will be going on, because...
you've been warned it will take time and not take precedence.
