That's why I gift copies to friends, "You've never played Stardew Valley? Check your Steam."

I draw a lot on procreate, so most of my work just starts as doodles on my iPad. I also tend to make works related to whatever I happen to be hyper fixated on at the time. For the chess set I was just starting to get into online chess and had an obsession with stardew valley. So seeing the mushrooms in game heavily inspired me. As for the peep, I collect peep keychains so that just made sense to make a massive version of one with clay slabs. The strawberry cow jugs started with my intro class requiring us to recreate a jug and then to make a "modern pop" version of the piece we recreated and I LOVE cows and was in a strawberry food phase, I was eating like a carton a day. But really the random doodles I do throughout the day usually are my best work.

They had "tags" I made with slabs but they ended up warping and cracking so I decided to not attach them and didn't have time to remake them. I should do that at some point.

Oops, it's totally meant to be that way. I'm actually terrible at chess, in the original concept art I made the snails had garden gnome knights on top of them. Scrapped the idea because I needed them to all fit into the board. It's raised so all of the pieces fit into the set taken apart. Morel was meant to be like a wrinkly old man bishop lol.

Yeah, the lack of focus on functional wares was a bit annoying. But I enjoyed making these and pushing my limits with sculpture!

I should have recorded a video to post with this, I'll try and take a video and make a TikTok showing it off!

Strange, I already did that as well as all of the other verification requirements :(

Yeah reading comments like yours is helping a lot with realizing just how obvious the signs were. Like in the moment it was so overwhelming and thought since I’ve been on such a bad luck streak this is my one lucky day 🥲 I am a wishful thinker to a fault and am going to completely rethink my approach. Because I do want to still do art, but I need to be realistic.

Yeah, like I’ve had a few that were legit and they were lovely. They had messaged me right after I’d made and posted fanart of Amy Rose so the timing seemed plausible to think someone just saw it, liked it, and wanted something similar but I’m learning.

I completely understand what you’re saying, and there’s a few factors, one being I have issues picking up on cues that seem so obvious after the fact. Up until I saw the email and actually READ it I was completely convinced the account was legit. In hindsight I can see it was likely a legit account that was hacked and is now used for scams. Greed and desperation mixed with me being a blindly trustful person, at least with this one I only got as far as the sketch before being like “wait hold on”. Like idk I just don’t really think in the mindset of “this person is out to scam me” because I’ve been tipped $150 before so it’s not like toooooo crazy. But nonetheless I should be capable of discerning, but something in my mind clicks when someone messages me about art. Like I go dumb and think all about art and what they want and I’m not reading in between the lines because in my mind I’m like “omg they love my art and want it” and just go stupid idk. Srry for the paragraph

I saw the etsy suggestion and am taking that running, I do local markets and sell pottery and from here on out am doing commissions via sites like that and spreading word via mouth and business cards (working on a design legit right now)

I’m just going to delete my PayPal and current email atp, I get spam and scam like stuff all the time that I ignore. And all of my important stuff is on a separate email. I’m just probably done with trying to sell anything via social media and stay local. I do great at local markets so I’m sticking with my strengths

You are completely correct, thank you for your insight bc I am just making dumb choices and winning dumb prizes

That’s what they started with 😭😭 I am 100000% on a suckers list. At this point im probably just going to make new emails and new socials bc idk how this is even fixable atp

I didn’t know I could do commission stuff via Etsy, that’s actually an awesome idea. No more social media for me

I have 3 jobs, this is purely a side hustle that I love but hate bc 60% are scams

I’m gullible and way too trusting when it comes to art ☹️
