As of late my partner and I have been unable to make rent. We've been living in our current apartment for about 3 years now. It was fine at first, affordable, and close to work. However, every year our rent has been increased. Over time it became more difficult for us to make our payments on time. Last year I injured both of my legs doing what I do every day, walking. I was diagnosed with shin splints, prescribed pain pills and told to get back out there. I was told it'd heal shortly. This has not been the case. To this day, I still constantly have to deal with muscle aches in both shins from standing and walking around. I walk too work, walk at work, and walk back home. Throught it all I'm forced to bear it and am just told to take more pain pills.
There are days where I just can't put up with it. Then there are days where I'm just in fear of the pain and I don't want to go out. I miss work and thus pay. However on top of this, my store has also recently cut hours across the board. So as of now I haven't missed many days, but I'm also not working many days. Our income has become scarce and we can no longer afford this apartment. I've put in several applications for cheaper nearby apartments and studios. However i have to wait to hear back from them. Well, I don't have a lot of time.
As far as my current apartment goes, other tenants along with myself have filed complaints about the state of the complex. This includes some pests and issues with mold. I believe my case for this is rather strong and it's likely to reduce what I owe. However, I'm being asked to pay the court what I would owe even if we win our hearing. By this monday, I have to drop off $1060 USD or I lose my case by default.
With that said, i still need funding for moving out, paying first month's rent and deposit (this is assuming that the apartments I've applied for get back to me.) I really need help badly. I know I screwed up here, but I really don't want to end up in a homeless situation. As much as I'm begging you all for money I can offer something in return. That is the commissions mentioned in the title. Although my usual rate is $150, for this funding I'll be asking for less.
For $100 I'm willing to make you a 3d model of your desire, texture it, rig it, and render out a 3D turntable. It's my hope that if I can get a queue of close to 20 people that I can get myself out this situation. I know it seems absurd but I can't think of much else at the moment and I'm really short on time. Of course, if an individual is willing to donate much more then $100 I'd be more then happy to compensate them for the extra funding (extra characters, loops, animation, render out a comic even.) Please send me a note with any questions or ideas you may have. Otherwise if you already know what you want, please PM me the details along with your paypal address and I shall send an invoice.
If anyone wants to make any smaller contributions (every bit adds up and helps.) Then please send the money here
Thank you for at least taking the time to read plea. I hope you consider keeping this doge from being homeless. >.<;
EDIT: :iconKipaki: is offering doodles to anyone who donates at least $10. He is an amazing artist and I'm grateful for his aid. Click here for details.
I live in the west side of the state (niagara falls.) Most places are in the $500+ range for just a single. The few that are under are the ones that I've been putting applications for. An apartment like you're describing would be great if I had other roommates i was moving in with though.
