It has been a while and the heat has died down on NFTs worry me as much as they did a while ago, so I am trying to slowly migrate back to posting semi-regularly on DA again, namely for PKMN-Woe and to help store my old art and photos as well as organize my story ideas. It will be a bit messy on my page for a while and you will see lots of odd photography, but I hope to expand my horizons as I take on more commissions due to having more bills than before.

While I was cleaning my inbox this morning, I saw someone make a post that was anti-NFTs, but in a way that made me double-check DA's policy. Sure enough, after some research, they support NFTs and work directly with OpenSea, a big company that does NFTs and is infamous for art theft. Now I am bummed that I am basically losing 11 years of artwork because I am about to store everything and hope the NFT craze ends or at least gets manageable to where DA won't support them anymore, but I refuse to let my art or ideas be taken without my permission.


Tumblr also apparently likes NFTs so I am hesitant to go back there, but Twitter and Instagram do not have support for them (yet, as both sites have expressed interest sadly). Those are the two sites I will be using as well as Toyhouse since that site does not support NFTs and hasn't expressed interest in it (one of the VERY FEW places that hasn't) so I am going to be trying to move stuff there if it means a lot to me or I need it, but everything else for now I am storing so no one can see it and basically logging out of this account so nothing can be done.


If things do not get better I will eventually be unstoring everything to re-save it and move it elsewhere before deleting everything, but that is thousands of Deviations since I posted even all my old art, my sketches, and the stuff I didn't like here as opposed to all my other platforms where I only wanted to post pieces I was proud of. If they do get better, you will see me again eventually. DA is where I am the biggest so I am very sad to leave it, but starting over isn't too big a deal when I don't have any important projects going on at the moment like a comic or show or big commission deal.

New Price Sheet

1 min read

I know it has been a while, but I promise I am working on a lot of special projects to provide more content to you all between my work shifts! To do this more frequently however, I need to be able to buy myself food and provide for myself, so I am going to be prioritizing my commissions over all other art I need to get done.


Exclusively for DeviantArt, I will accept point payments equal to what the price would normally be if you truly want to pay with points instead. Note me for more info!

I have had my PayPal fixed up since the beginning of November, but since my life got a bit hectic, art block struck and I was slowed down on the art front for a bit. Everything I had been drawing for personal enjoyment hasn't been finished, and I haven't had much motivation to draw anything I have ever drawn before, and instead I just wanted to draw things that were new and fresh. I also have been a bit tight on money since -you know what- happened, so I thought this would be the perfect time to open my first batch of official commissions!


Since I want to take it a bit easy on myself (along with figuring out pacing and pricing) I decided I would take 5 special slots and see if I could fill them up in some way. My stipulations basically come out to: I draw almost anything as long as it isn't sexual in nature. Since these are headshots, there isn't much you could ask for anyway, but that rule always stands. Otherwise, I am fine with requests for monsters, gore, and even more complex characters as long as you are okay with me giving you an extra fee if there is an excessive amount of accessories, parts, extra heads (like a cerberus-type character), etc. To keep things simple, below is an example of how my sketched headshots usually turn out.

PKMN-WOE: Event XII: Prompt C: Good Lads Mad Lads

My prices will go as follows for the headshot types I am offering in this special limited offer:


Sketched Headshot - $20

Colored Headshot - $25

Shaded Headshot - $30

(Complexity charges can range from $5 to $20 extra depending on how complex the character happens to be)


I won't be accepting points this time around, apologies for that!



And since I like to be apparent with what I use this money for, this month I have to recover funds from: a surprise dentist trip for a wisdom tooth of mine gone rogue, Christmas gifts since I got my family snacks from a huge going-out-of-business sale from an import store in my town, groceries, phone bill, student loan payments, and my Adobe Cloud bill as always. If these end up panning out for me I might add options in the future to give myself extra bank for games and what not for myself, but sadly bills are my priority right now.


Also as a few important notes: do not send me payment until I ask for it, and I will not start your piece until I have received the payment after our discussion has concluded. I also have a job other than this that distracts me, so my pacing may vary depending on how many hours my work schedules me. If you have a date you need the piece by, make sure to be up front with me so I can prioritize that and make sure it's possible!


Feel free to send me a comment or note if you want to discuss what you would like to buy from me!
