Hey everyone, bad news

I will have to announce that all commissions will delayed for an unknown time. This because I have huge headaches, which I'm afraid are caused by my eyes. I have a very bad feeling I'll be needing glasses, but I'm not sure yet, so I really need to give my eyes some rest first. This vacation I have really nothing to do, and I've mostly been doing Guildwars, drawing and watching my series. This all involved my computer, which leads to the fact that I have some days at which I'm even 10 hours behind my computer! Because my eyes focus on the same distance all the time, they got stiff, which hopefully will disappear, but there is a chance it might stay, and in its worst case, I would need glasses. Therefor I want to give my eyes some rest, and I won't be on my computer alot anymore, the reason my commission will be pauzed.

Thanks for understanding, and hopefully see you all soon again, with better news. I do intend at being at the workshop (this sunday!) for sure though.

Take care of yourself, and hope it's not a big problem in the end.

Dont worry, it will be there evantually

My eyes are starting to relax a bit again, probably won't need glasses (YAY!). Won't be drawing for 2 more days though, just to make sure.. After that I'll hope to able to get to it again, just not for 5 hour sits, like I sometimes did

You have to remember to take breaks, and look away from the screen every so often so the distance at which your eyes focus on changes.

Wow! That looks very classy. I love the smooth look and the background color made the picture pop. Plus the bird looks amazing as well.

Good job Tommy!

That bird is fantastic. And your humans are improving.

And all the artist mentions on gw2guru are well deserved.

Definite improvement in the brushes you're using. The lines are nice and crisp and the clothe details came out very nice. The hawk is also nicely done. Next, I think you should focus on the details of the skin and hair - they look a bit flat and undefined in comparison to the rest of the piece. Other than that, this is a definite step forward for you.
