I upgraded my computer a while ago and can't get my old Photoshop to work. I can't find my disks for any versions anywhere. Poo. That's why I haven't been doing much art, well at least a good part of it. This sucks.

It has been a bit of a long road, but things are starting to look up again. Art is still kind of on hiatus though. I'm kinda of in and around on DA. Also yes I do have a new job so that's going to be interesting.

Uhhhhh I don't really have much else to say. If you want to talk to me for anything though, just leave a comment or note or whatever.

My father passed away this evening. He had been in so much pain for so long. Still it was his choice to go. My family has been great. He was a good dad. I already miss him so much. Christmas will be hard this year. 

I may write more here later. 

I... don't know what to say here really. Things have been bad here for my family for the last 3 years. Back then my dad had a surgery that went very wrong and has been doing progressively worse and worse. It seems like we may be drawing near the end of it now. Crap I don't know what to say here really. It's hard. It hurts. 


I am putting commissions on hold, not that I had any. 



Ugh. What else is there really to say. I'll be around. Sort of. I dunno. Don't expect much for a while drawing wise. 

!!!!UPDATE!!!!

I have had no takers as of yet. If anyone could signal boost this to get the word out in their own journals or something that would be nice. I am currently job hunting so the extra income would be most helpful and appreciated! Thanks!

Commision Info

Sorry if this journal is popping up in my watcher's feeds too much!
Commissions trial run! Commissions are open for a trial run of sorts. I am kind of gauging interest. Hopefully I'll get at least a couple!

Things I will draw:

  -violence/gore/decaying creatures (to a point)
  -dragons, real animals, monsters, your OCs
  -bones, feathers, scales, etc.
  -anthro characters
  -mechanical creatures (though I admit they are not my strong suit)

Things I will not draw:

  -humans
  -sexually explicit things (porn etc.)
  -offensive/fetish things
  -fanart to a degree, I don't like the legal gray area surrounding drawing copyrighted characters for money so I prefer to refrain from such. 

I reserve the right to refuse commissions without explanation if I so choose. 

Prices are as follows:

• $15 for colored headshot portraits
  

             Examples:   ,   ,   ,   , 

            -These include only one character from the neck or shoulders up. Backgrounds are typically abstract. Character can be on plain white background if desired.

• $20-40 Lineart of single character, +10 for each additional character

            Examples:   ,

            -Prices will vary depending on the complexity of the character. Lineart done this way will be 100% digital. 

• Anything Else, Special Request, Pricing upon Request
  

            -The above listings are the things that I would prefer to draw most, and as such are the fastest for me to draw. That is why any other type of art will have to be at my discretion upon request. See something in my gallery that you like? Just give me an email and I will see if we can't work something out. 

            -If you are wanting me to draw your own character please provide a reference. Written descriptions are fine but pictures are prefered.

Payments

-Please provide payments in full upfront, but please don't send the payment until I have officially accepted and the details are sorted out. Payments will be made via Paypal in USD.  I will only accept a couple of commissions at a time, so please be aware of this fact. 

Notes

-Images of finished commissions will be uploaded to this DeviantArt account with my personal watermark. If you do not want the images uploaded to my DeviantArt account please let me know, I will be happy to accommodate. Finished commision images will be sent to the commissioner via email as a full size high resolution jpeg file. These images will be sent without the watermark but will still have my signature on them. I ask that you please do no upload these images elsewhere without contacting me if possible. Also please do not remove the signature. Other file types can be available upon request.

-This is my first time offering commissions so please understand this. I will do my best to accommodate you and provide updates as needed. Thank you for your support!

Contact

-For any questions and the best way to get a hold of me please contact me at dragndrawer21@gmail.com. I check my email every day, usually multiple times a day.
