March Check In

I hope all my lovelies are doing great!


I cant remember if I mentioned this last time but my PC finally gave out.  The poor thing was fried by a power outage.  So im scrambling to get the cash together to get it fixed!

Nav's isnt doing much better.  Oyie..


Were almost done packing so hopefully our house will sell quick and we'll have a cheaper place to stay so I can once again play WoW!


Sal Got a beta key to BFA so i'll be testing it out once we get a PC that works and i'll do a couple post on what I find, Whee!

My goal is to start back strong on posting during BFA because by August we should be stable especially if the house sells.


Till then, if you want to help support me and help me work towards my goal of playing WoW again and providing the content you clearly enjoyed then consider looking me up for art or Merchandise!  I do Blizzcon badges, character art, pet portraits, art classes, events.. Everything!!

You can find info, current specials, and all that over on SouthernBelleArtShop.blogspot.com

Just want to support me?  Ko-fi.com/kiritawindwalker and patreon.com/kiritawindwalker all work great and have special rewards to them!  I appreciate every penny and the support behind it!!

Cant give?  Then share my links to your socials! Sharing, liking, commenting that is JUST as helpful to me!


Once the blog starts back i'll possibly do a Ko-Fi for it and offer access to donators to a discorb where we can chat, group up and easily share content.  Fun stuff like that!

Till next we meet!

Lunar festival 2018 and update

Hello!

Time for another update but first details on the Festival.

This year its the same deal, get your coins, same quest.  See old guides, ect.

Whats new?  Transmog!  Suits and crowns are transmogable.

Suits and dresses are 5 coins.

New Item:  Flower Crowns 25 coins each.  4 colors.

Doing the vanilla and cata alone should allow you to get one crown and two suits/dresses if needed!

Fun Fact:  You can save them for next year too so dont delete!  I just throw my extras in the bank usually.  

Quest give EXP only if your not capped.  If you are its like 10 gold.

Enjoy the theme'd Art since i couldnt do it for screenies!

As for Life update...

My PC crashed *cries!*

So No more WoW for me ;_;  I needed a new rig anyway but I wasnt prepared at all and now I cant do much digital work.

That being said im doing some PWYW traditional pieces at $5 min for my PC fund.  If you want to help out order a postcard sized piece of art or a mini print for $5 and maybe leave me a nice tip of a few bucks!  It means a lot and it'll help me get back to creating content that so many of you were clearly enjoying since I still get quite a few hits with monthly post.  Im touched!  <3

Feel free to drop me a line on SouthernBelleArtShop@gmail.com or see my art site for commission details and queues SouthernBelleArtShop.blogspot.com

Thank you for your continued support, yall are the real MVPs in my heart.  <3

Update from Elve

Hey guys, Elve here!

So, I'm married (Yay!) and I'm moving-finally- with Sal to our cozy, 200 sq ft camper to live in chaos.

Money is still tight, unemployment dried up, and commissions are slow but building.  So WoW is a luxury I just cant afford at this time...  But once I can i'll be showing yall more love then a monthly update.

Till then you can help me out by sticking with me because the blog will revive soon!

You can also consider helping support me personally as a artist.  Buy me a Ko-Fi (Monthly art specials!), support my Patreon for tons of art rewards, consider commissioning me (I make badges and character art!), buy from my shops, or just go check out my socials and give me some shares and likes on the stuff you like so I get more exposure to possibly clients!

Once I'm stable i'll be back at it!

You might also wanna consider checking out my other free content

Daily Art: Instagram and Twitter

Comics:  Life of a Gaming Artist and WoW Raiders (Coming soon)

Thanks so much for reading, the fact that yall have stuck with me this long makes YOU the MVP!  I love yah so much for it!

Views, likes, and shares are all JUST as important as sales so please take a moment to check them out.  The exposure is important when your still starting out.



In other news, I'm hoping to start on a web comic next year.  Why is this more pausible then working on this blog?  Well I have to PAY to play WoW and I have little money and I cant dedicate the time to make gold...  But hey, i'll look at setting up a patreon just for this blog and if I get $20 a month i'll play enough to make atleast one to two post a week again.  But this comic will be free to start... And hopefully move into a possible income starter... Sadly, blogging isn't as profitable.. I did it because I enjoyed it and liked helping people.  I hope to do this again soon.  And with your help I will.  :)

Thank you for reading, see you soon and happy holidays!
