Commissions Open!
My part time job's really putting the emphasis on "part time" so I'm still kinda hurting for $$$.
I offer different styles/services so feel free to send me a message if you'd be interested in commissioning me or have any inquiries! All prices are listed in USD and I take payments through paypal. Detailed backgrounds, regardless of style, cost an extra 5-10$ depending on just how complex they get. I can be contacted here or on twitter.
STYLE 1
My standard artstyle, more expensive than style 2 but more detailed. Note that I cannot work within strict deadlines for this style due to health concerns.
PRICES PER CHARACTER
fullbody: 30$
half body: 25$
bust: 20$
STYLE 2
Will get done faster and is cheaper than style 1 but less detailed.
PRICES PER CHARACTER
fullbody: 20$
half body: 18$
bust: 15$
REFERENCE SHEETS
50$ for 3 bust shots and 2 full bodies
2000S ANIME-ESQUE
art that sorta emulates the vibe and style of late 90's/early 2000s anime screenshots or promo posters! price varies depending on what exactly you ask for so we can talk about it over PMs
MY TERMS OF SERVICE
i WILL NOT draw
-nsfw of minors
-pairings with large age gaps or incest
-hateful or bigoted content
Regarding my NSFW art, I can draw things akin to pinups so characters in risque poses, nude, or in lingerie are fine but not actual sexual acts (beware of NSFW link)
I can try to draw anthros and mechs but they aren't necessarily my areas of expertise
If I cannot complete a commission for whatever reason you will be refunded.

It's kinda sad that i'm like 22 going on 23 and i've only just scheduled my first job interview but oh well. despite not really wanting to do art professionally said interview is for an art director position for a game being made by staff/other students at my university. the main premise seems to be designing an educational game focused on various sociopolitical issues like gender and racial inequality so i'm kinda excited about the prospect on working on it, it'd be a chance to use art to make a difference. wish me luck. or give me interview tips, those would be appreciated

Just a quick and dirty zine about the labor movement and union busting, as well as google literally scrubbing "don't be evil" off of all their corporate documents which i thought was fuckin wild lmao. its a bit sloppy and by noooo means a comprehensive history of the labor movement but i hope you find it a fun read
you can download the pdf at itch
here's some sample pages

Hey guys! Want some art of your favorite character/ocs? Wanna donate to a good cause? I'm doing bust commissions for charity, proceeds will be donated to CARE (check https://www.care.org/ if you need more info)in order to provide relief to victims of the earthquakes in turkey/syria. Pwyw but minimum 10 USD, taken through paypal. Thinking of taking around 10 slots total, would love to do more but between school and my wrist issues I might not be able to keep up with it all. Here's some examples, if youre interested just shoot me a message
CURRENT SLOTS TAKEN (10/10)

Siiiiiigh. I haven't bought any cardfight vanguard decks for like. Maybe two years now? I built scharhrot, harri, and yasuie+shirayuki back whenever butterfly d'moonlight dropped (and that title pisses me off btw i may have really mediocre french skills but there's NO reason it should be written as d' instead of de) and since its been sooooo long i figured i'd look to see if any new releases since the format change caught my eye. And one did! I fucking LOVE youthberks design, and yes before you ask I build all my decks based on aesthetic purposes. I wasn't a magia main in g era because I thought it could beat any of the meta decks. Anyways LOOK at this fucker
Black red and edgy all over? Wears a mask? Baby sign me the FUCK up!!!!
Or that's what I'd say if he didn't go for an average of 45$ a copy. In fact I'd spend $600 EASILY, probably a lot more, if I wanted to build this guys deck in standard rarity (so no special sps or super high rarity cards even). Such is life for those of us who collect shiny cardboard. I'm pretty sure he's one of the better decks in the format hence the high price. I genuinely wish he was worse just so he'd go for cheaper. Ugh. At least orfist looks decently cool but....Youthberk hits so many of my biases.
So what're you guys' expensive hobby woes?

I can draw suggestive content but nothing explicitly pornographic nor anything hateful in nature. I also won't draw suggestive content of characters who are minors, nor any ship art of characters with large age gaps.
I'm fine with mecha and armor though the former is very much not my forte.
I reserve the right to turn down any commission before payment is received, if issues arrive that prevent me from finishing the commission you will be at least partially refunded.
