So, I decided to return after a long while... unfortunately, I grew disinterested in doing art as I wanted to try and focus on game development and because I was just getting bored of doing art, plus I really was not making the money I wanted from art like I thought I would... but I figured, I should just return... so I did!

But I'm making some significant changes to how I run my account from now-on:

1. I'm closing off my art trades and I still will not be requests; if you want anything from me, it's going to have to be a commission... it's nothing personal, but I can't afford to be giving away my time and labor to art trades and requests

2. Most of my time will still be dedicated to running my studio, Steel Fish Studios... if you really want to follow any of my creative endeavors, follow me at Steel Fish Studios on YouTube, Twitter, Itch.io, and Facebook... THAT is where I will be most active, but I'll still post stuff here on DeviantArt, FurAffinity, and NewGrounds

3. No price changes to my commissions, as I don't see a reason to do so, regardless of economic conditions happening in the United States

So yeah... that's my update for 2026...
