Opening commissions for July
Here's the plan everyone. I've caught up with work to my level of satisfaction and am willing to reopen for commissions starting June 23. I'm limiting the level of work I do to just pinup pieces or less to the public to allow me to turnaround projects faster. Patreon members will have exclusivity to get whatever they want.
Patrons can redeem the Hiatus Discount to any future commission. For example, if you were subscribed to Gold in May - July, that's $90 off. Let's sa...
Homeless No More!
Just last week I secured a place for me to move into. I Obtained the key Monday and began moving my belongings out of storage just in time before needing to renew another month. I will have everything moved out and mostly reassembled at the new place by the end of the week.
Now that I've acquired a roof over my head, the next item on my to-do list is finding a job for the summer that maybe leads into the fall. This will help me earn money while I catch up my two owed projects plus curr...

As stated in the previous journal, I'm currently homeless but with my current support group, I'm not on the streets living in my car. A friend has offered a place for me to stay while I get my affairs in order and try to tie up loose ends. I'm actively looking for rooms to rent or an apartment that can take me. In the meantime, I still have estimated 2 weeks left of my college class and entering finals. This is also why I haven't been so active, and I want to finish strong despite my setback ...

Simple as that, I'm homeless, not the kind of news you want to hear. If you weren't kept up with my situation or in the know of what's been going on, I've had a roommate (Novi) who has consistently missed or was short on their portion of rent. Regardless of the reasonings (justified or not), this has occurred since the start of November last year. I've been hemorrhaging money to help cover for their portion, with ever-growing confidence of not getting it back each month as it was always som...

OC Poll - 2025 Q2
It's about time to open my next OC poll. I've reduced the choices to 3 as I noticed in past polls, the votes spread mighty thin resulting in ties, or ¼ of the choices receive zero votes anyway. Potential tie breakers aside, these three Poke-girls I really want to make a piece for.
Poll's end May 5.

I have the best anthro Necrozma design in the world hands down, no questions. This was originally an OC I put up for adopt with a poorly developed sketch and with no takers I just reclaimed ownership. I introduce to you, Prisma, an entity sealed away has awoken in the modern age thanks to archeologist uncovering her tomb unsealing the caged sun hungry to refill her light.
This whole illustration proved a fun challenge with textures and the extreme lights. Use of value contrast was the...

2025 March Sketch Book
Our members heard the call and joined the hunt. March's theme was Monster Hunter, and I was tasked with smithing (drawing) their gear.
It was rough, but this was great practice researching and designing the different sets of armor and drawing these absurd weapons. Dual Blade was the most popular.

[CW-blood] Com @Zariss JBC - Break off
A Jukebox commission gifted to Toffeebuttercow
I really shut my brain off when I went into this one and when I came too, I was thoroughly impressed with the direction I taken as I don't ever deal with "gore?" (not certain where this fall categorically speaking). However, it seem obvious with the song but spiritually correct.

Oh boy, what a project. My first illustrated rendering of my breeding robot L3AV35 accessing the M:EĐEN database to update and download files off the server racks. Along the way I got to play around with some visual techniques. during the sketch phase, L3AV35's has gone through three redesigns as I worked on this, committing to their centaur model. The original concept was a factory floor with mechanical arms installing parts on L3AV35's and wires strewn about but that felt very complex and ...
