So a lot of the work I do, in animation and when I do cel-shaded work, makes use of software called Toon Boom Animate. I bought this software back during my senior year at college, and I have not regretted it. It's got great tools, amazing controls (including a digital turntable) and really top-notch support.

Now, the software does have some limitations, like not being able to use text, and (mostly my personal) difficulties using symbols and complex objects. Most of this was fixed in later releases, or in the higher-grade Pro software, which also has some nice extra features which would make my life easier.

I'm a (presently) non-employed freelance artist, it's not really in my budget.

I've been planning, once I get over this dry startup period, to work on buying some of this higher-grade software (and hardware, like the big Cintiq) once I've built up some money.

And they just put it on sale. (70% off!) They specifically itemize the price to upgrade from my current edition to the Pro software. And it's not too bad.

So, I'm putting this out there. I really want the money to buy this. It would make my work on Nightmares in the Dark and other projects far easier. It would make my life a bit less complicated, to achieve one of my big goals. (And any money I make above and beyond that goal would help towards those pesky, pesky bills.)

So if you ever intended to commission me, now is the time. My prices will be favorable, I could use as much work as possible, and my time is entirely at your disposal.

I'm already going to be working hard to get my current queue of commissions done, feel free to pile on some more.
