Greetings!:

Like in my last journal, I'm feeling a bit nostalgic. DA is very different these days. I kind of just wanted to say hi! Feel free to comment below if you'd like to interact!

Kiriban: Also, after scrolling through my last journals, I decided to hold a kiriban because why not? The first to catch me hitting 12.5k views (+1k from now) with a screenshot will get a drawing. Please have multiple choices of an OC or fandom character you'd like me to draw. Such as a canon pokemon, digimon, pony, etc. I have the right to refuse if I'm uncomfortable. Just trying to do a fun thing so don't abuse it please~


Why a number so far in the future? Well, 12.5k is the closest significant number I could think of, being 1/8 of the way to 100k views. Plus, this journal will likely stay up for a while, and if I upload some backlog, the views will be faster. :)


Commissions:

The holidays were a bit brutal and I need some extra padding sooner than later.


I have two options:


Fast PWYW: Same Day Turnaround! Send me at least $10 and I'll draw your OC. This will have a lot of artistic liberty and/or artistic experimentation. No approval sketch. Minimal adjustments will be made unless it's my mistake. The more you send the more polished the piece will be. $10 will be along the lines of colored headshot or full body sketch of a single character. Multiple character pieces are accepted, just keep your expectations in line with how much you're giving me! If you're sending more than the minimum and want a sketchpage instead of a polished piece, let me know!


Discounted Standard Comms: These comms work as normal. You will get an approval sketch, etc.

Full body with color and shading: $60

Two characters: $120

Still Alive

Hello, it's been a while.
I know there's not many of you around. But! I've noticed that I've still been getting favs and new watchers. Thank you!
I just wanted to say that I'm taking some time to get stuff together before I can become active again.

IRL stuff is being a bit weird currently and may interfere, but this is my general plan:

First I'm focusing on finishing up commissions, etc.
Next is updating everything on the page. Commission sheet, featured art, profile info, etc needs to be more up to date.
Then I'll post whatever backlog I have here. It'll be a lot of sketches, as that's most of my personal work these days.
After that, I'll be ready to be active as an artist.
As for me being a watcher, I've been avoiding viewing art for a while. I need to consume some media so that I don't get spoiled by art here. So I may not be up to date on that for a bit longer.
I'll be mirroring these steps for other sites I'm on, so it won't be a quick process.

I've been feeling a bit of nostalgia lately, and I honestly always have preferred gallery sites like these for art over sites that rely on scrolling through a feed. It's too stressful to keep up, and you can't miss a day.
So I hope to be active here again soon!

Sort of self explanatory.
I'm kicking myself back into gear and updating some things. Including a huge backlog of things ranging from scribbles, to WIPs and completed drawings.
The drawings are going to be of various age, but the first half is going to be older, including some things from when I was still posting. Ranging about the last four or so years. And unfortunately probably not in any kind of chronological order, but I'll see if I can pull that off.
The second half is going to be more recent stuff from the past 2ish years. More up to date in terms of style, and also drawn in a different program (Procreate) as opposed to Sai and occasionally Photoshop. This will most likely be more or less chronological with skill not jumping around too much.

I'll try to condense scribbles as much as possible to prevent spamming any alive watchers that may still be around, but I want to get it over with ASAP and not space it out.

Also, it may be surprising to see a new journal in general. I'm trying to work on becoming more interactive and social. Maybe make some new art friends?

Last thing of note is that I'm also updating my commission prices sometime during this. Probably after. I'll be holding a sale for the first month after the increase, but details of that will be in a followup journal.

Thanks for reading! :)

Click here!

After some consideration I've made one. I'm still not sure if I should make it a full mirror of my normal gallery or what.

Ask box is open, so feel free to ask questions or maybe give me suggestions on what you'd like to see from me. More of a particular style or topic, or maybe something completely new. I'm open to all inspiration.

This also means you can make requests but please keep in mind it's not specifically a request blog. I may be a little picky about them as my first priority are commissions. I'm more likely to fulfill a request of an official character than OCs, for example.

Yup! Need to replace those sketches soon... hopefully. Thinking about offering ACEOs in the future after I've practiced traditional a bit. Dunno how I'm gonna have it fit.
Anyways, any comments on it? Think something would work better or more interesting?
