As most of you know, I am currently unable to make any more videos for the foreseeable future, and any art that is produced now takes four times longer than it usually does due to internal hard drive malfunctions, graphics card failures and a number of other technical issues which are pointless to go into.

I started up an Indiegogo Fundraiser a week ago to help raise money to replace or repair my equipment so I can complete my back log of commission based work, complete art I have promised to charity organisations and conventions, as well as adding new merchandise to my two online shops.  The charity I am donating to is a local charity called 'Caring Hands' which raises money to help feed the homeless and those living in poverty in my local area. (I can see past the end of my nose, guys.  I know this situation I am in is not as bad as some people, and I want to be able to help those in my community and beyond more than I can at the moment.  The new equipment will help me do that.  I'm not doing this just to line my own pocket.  I hate asking for help, but needs must.)  

Don't forget that if you are unable to donate, you can help me by raising awareness of the fundraiser and telling people of the problems I am having by posting the link on face book, twitter, blogging about it or even making a video on it.

Although I also make traditional art, that only makes up 30% of the company, is much more time consuming and expensive and does not sell as quickly as digital pieces do. (not to mention I just don't have the space any more). For the time being I have halted all projects, videos, commissions and other art works until this issue is solved.  However, I am still taking commission orders. (due to popular demand)  Just be aware that I already have a back log, and that due to the problems I have been having, the wait will be even longer. 

 

To order a commission, use the contact details provided in the image above, or  click here to view the full price list and terms and conditions.


As well as the Indiegogo fundraiser, I have changed my Patreon to a Monthly set up instead of per video and art piece.  This will be a permanent change.  Click here to support Mad Munchkin on Patreon

However I am not letting this stop me from making stuff for you guys.  What I plan on doing is, like I did with the 100th episode of MLP, post my thoughts on any movies, shows, video games right here on deviant art, utilizing the journal more.  It's not as fun, but at least I can stay in touch and keep talking about what I love and share it with those of you who feel the same.

Now of course this doesn't mean there will be no more videos or art, it simply means there will be a long wait for any new content from me.  I am of course going to keep trying to work on the commissions I already have, so don't worry about that.

In the mean time, we have raised 35% of the total needed.  Please help support me by donating and/or sharing this link; igg.me/at/EaIO2Pw0QNw/x/110239…

Thank you everyone for the support and kind words.  I will keep you posted.

A few hours ago, when I started thinking about this, I wanted to start this comment with 'I don't have much, but...' It wouldn't have been a lie. Buuut... after creating that Patreon-account, you somehow ended up on top, with the major share on your side. Which is remarkable, considering that I read more than I watch videos or artwork and you had to compete against two very good writers. I think that's a good statement about how much I like what you do.
Anyway. While I'm sort-of-sad that I can't contribute to your fund-raiser - I just don't have any amount worth discussing - I can support you through Patreon. So... yeah, that's fine, I hope.

One day, I'm going to write to you. To order a little pony-OC for myself. Just you wait and see... one day...! ;D
(It's about the money, really. It's always about the money, isn't it? But fine art such as yours deserves to be rewarded appropriately.)
