TOS:


- By commissioning me, you are agreeing to my TOS.
- You must be of legal age to commission me (18).
- I only do sfw art.

Artist and Commissioner Rights:

If you do want to repost it, I do require a link to the original upload as well as credit. This is to ensure I am both given the credit for the work I did, but to also not confuse others on who the original artist is.No I will not remove my watermark!.You may not make a profit off of my art at all. This means using it to make merchandise, fliers, or ads. That is, unless you pay a merchandising fee. If you want to commission a piece to be used for profit, let me know and we can discus fees.


Waiting Time and WIPs:

I usually on average take 1-4 weeks to finish a commission. If I think it might take me longer than 4 weeks to complete a piece, I will let you know..I only give one WIP at the sketch stage to make sure you like the pose, expression and tone of the piece. Once you okay the sketch, I finish it with no further WIPs. If you would like additional WIPs, please make sure to ask. Keep in mind though, additional WIPs will make your piece take longer!.I'm not a mind reader. It is very important that you always give me clear instructions and accurate references. I will not make changes if the commissioner leaves out info or gives me bad references. I may even charge an additional fee if I must restart the entire sketch..I will change any mistakes I made. Unless I was never informed or given a proper ref..I retain all rights to the work I do. What this means:- I may post the image wherever I please. Unless the commissioner pays a privacy fee or royalties.
- I may sell art packs featuring the art with clear instructions that purchasing the pack does not include rights to the character or art. This includes informing purchasers that they may not repost the art. (Example: An art book featuring your commission as well as others.)
- *I will not remove the picture if you've had a falling out with someone in the image or do not want it public any longer.
- I may use the art as an example for future commissions and portfolios.
- You may not deface the image.

What I Enjoy Drawing:
Here is a list of the subjects and themes I enjoy most as well as things I am not very fond of. Please don't assume that I will automatically pick your idea if it contains these themes. As well as don't assume I will avoid themes in the "not not big on" section. This is merely here to help those looking for suggestions!

- Holiday themes
- Round/pear shaped characters
- 4 legged animals
- Magical transformations
- Webcore/Dreamcore/Kidcore themes
- Gothic and emo characters
.Themes I'm not big on:- Patchwork transformation with lots of clothes ripping
- Drawing with more realism
- Non cartoony weapons
- Heavy sci-fi and cyberpunk themes

I often get asked how I achieve my old, "VHS" style. I'm not too good at explaining those things so I thought I'd make this page to help people!


Setup:Before I even start adding effects to my art, I always make sure to separate my character(s) from the background. This helps to give the image that cel animated look later on.1. Adding Noise
First thing I do once my image is done is open it up in Photoshop. You can recreate this in other programs such as Procreate, but PS is easiest for me!
I make sure my character(s) and background are in their own group folders. Once done, I copy both folders and merge them into their own flat images. So you should have your character(s) and your background.

From there I select my character layer and go to Filter > Blur > Gaussian Blur. I Usually blur the image by 3-5% depending on the size of the image.
After that, I then go to Filter > Noise > Add Noise. Then, just like I did with the blur, I usually aim for 5% noise. Feel free to edit both layers as you see fit!
Then simply repeat this process for background.Last, I finish it off by adding a small drop shadow on the character layer. You can do this by right clicking the layer > select blending > drop shadow.

2. Adding the Color BleedThis one is a bit tricky. For the most part, I follow this tutorial below:

The only thing I change is that I add a second layer on top by duplicating the original character layer and moving it to the top of the layer stack. I then use the move tool to position the whole character slightly to the left or right. Once positioned where you like it, I add a slight motion blur at 0 degrees. It should look like this:

From there you want to set the layer to Lighter Color, and set the opacity to 30-45%.Then simply repeat those steps for the background. Once you're done, you can play with the saturation and vibrancy of the image. The final result should look something like this:

3. Adding FiltersThis next part is the hardest for me to explain. See, I rarely ever do the same thing twice. I usually experiment and try new things when working on personal pieces or gifts. Usually this means trying out different programs, apps and Photoshop effects. Down below I will list the programs I use as well as a few examples! Simply click the program's name to be taken to the source!

Vaporgram:

Universe: VHS Effects:

You can then either copy these and then touch them up more in another program, or leave them as is! Sometimes I run the whole image through 2-4 different programs before I'm fully satisfied. It can be a long process!Here are some other programs, apps and effects also use from time to time. Just find what works best for you!- VHS Tape
