$20 Colored Sketch
A colored sketch of 1 full-body character. I often test different brushes and coloring styles this way so the result may vary by default. However, if you’d like your subject drawn a certain way or vibe, don’t be afraid to let me know, or include examples with your references. These often include a simple background scene or pattern behind the subject.
$60 Freestyle Rendered Art
A full-color art of your subject of choice. I like to try different coloring methods, composition, and posing depending on the character or subject I’m drawing, hence the “freestyle” label. By default I will decide how to draw and color your subject on my own based on information given; however, you are allowed to request that I give in-progress sketches and share any initial ideas of how you would like it to look.
This option iterates on what I do for an annual event called ArtFight, so if your choice is an original character feel free to link or add anything extra you’d like to share about them (besides your reference) in your request (mood boards, Toyhouse, etc)!

Rules (copied the terms from my Kofi post)
I reserve the right to refuse any request. I will not accept political, anti-lgbtq, racist, or otherwise hateful subjects. I will also avoid NSFW and suggestive subjects. If I refuse a request, I will reach out first if possible for alternative subjects before refunding. If an agreement isn’t reached (or if you cannot be contacted) I will cancel and refund.
If you’re unsure if your request would pass, feel free to reach out via DM on social media, discord, or email and ask before submitting the commission ticket. If the art is completed (or close to completion) I will not issue a refund, as it has already taken my time to create it. I am open to a pass of small fixes if I have made any clear mistakes drawing your character/request. If you are truly unhappy with the art you received, I encourage you to share your feedback with me.
Once requests are completed they will each be posted on Kofi and social media with “requested by (your Kofi username)” somewhere in the post. For the rendered art, I will send a message via Kofi to you when your request is completed if there has been no other communication. I am also open to personally send you your digital art image via email or similar method, as social media is known for compressing image quality.
Turnaround time varies but I would give myself a month max, with about 2 weeks being normal for the sketch option. This also varies depending on demand and how many requests I have, as I typically try to complete them in the order received. I can close requests at any time but will likely make sure to announce its closure a few days in advance.
Preferences: I am open to drawing characters from most IP but it may be useful to keep in mind what I usually draw (animals and monsters) for your expectations (Kofi does not have all of my art so please refer to my accounts on Tumblr and Bluesky for a wider art selection). I am open to drawing original characters so long as you provide a visual reference (I.e. reference sheet, colored base, picrews, in-game screenshot). I will refuse if you do not have any design for your character as it is a much more lengthy and involved process to create one.
Usage rights: Please do not use my art for commercial reasons such as manufacturing prints, stickers, and merchandise intended for sale, or using it as your company/brand logo without permission. My only special case exception is if the art is attached to a character you are selling once (such as an adopt or Toyhouse sale); for this I consider the art already paid for and you do not need to seek me out to ask. Using my art as AI training data is prohibited, and if I find out you will be blocked and blacklisted in as many ways possible. Otherwise feel free to use the art for any personal use, such as online icons, adding it to Toyhouse/similar sites and reference sheets, prints not intended for sale, etc.
