Thought I'd do a pinned post as an intro for any new followers + general info
Hi! I'm pocket-gems, but Sok's the name. I like the SU universe a bit too much and I like to do designs and requests around it. My art aims to be as close as the SU style as possible, but note that it's not my actual art style! I just do it for fun. English is not my main language and sometimes I just don't care enough to fix stuff, so I thought I'd say that haha. I can be a very assertive individual and I genuinely mean no harm or to come out as angry, so please don't fear me too much.
Tumblr's tag system sucks, I store and organize all of my SU ocs on ToyHouse, where if a Gem type has been created, the tag system should make it show up. I also have gemsonas there!
There's also bases, unfinished and finished that can be found here! They're free to use and it's a large collection of bases for fusions, canon and non canon gems ^^
I do requests once on a while, and when they're open, you'll see a longer post with Da Rulez. Alternatively, you can always commission me, here's the info if you're interested! Want to draw them yourself but don't know how to draw in the SU art style? I have a very basic guide here!
Are requests open? No! (Da Rulez are down below for when they're open)
• Ok with:
-Bases request (a skinny obsidian, a thick pearl, an opal base, etcetc)
-A fan fusion of canon characters (only canon characters! Be realistic tho, dont ask for a 10 fused-gems)
-Fan fusions of gemsonas (only my own tho, sorry!)
-Corrupted/Uncorrupted Gem designs (these may take a while tho)
-Random Homeworld Gem (note: any gem created as a request is one that i will keep, ok with doing fusions)
• Not Ok with:
-Literally anything outside the SU universe
-Turning *insert character* into a gemsona
-Custom Gem requests (just commission me for that)
-NSFW
• Want your Gems drawn? Know this first!
-I draw gems on a SU style, meaning that I change the design/proportions based of what I think would fit better. If you don't like this, don't request me. I enjoy explaining why I do certain changes, and if you're ok with it, go ahead!
-Only 1 gemsona per ask. If you're unsure of who to choose, its ok to send multiple, but please specify that fact! (Can be fusions, hybrids or single gem)
-Don't send multiple requests if you already sent a character. (1 month cool down until you can request again!)
-PLEASE share a fullbody, not just a bust.
-I HIGHLY encourage you to tell me stuff about your gemsona. Size, personality or whatever you think is worth sharing!
There is no time of delivery. I do this for free, any rushing will make me delete the request. Unless I forgot something, that should be all!
Today I found out that beloved artifiziell's account has been deactivated. I wanted to share some of the art she shared with me that she never posted because I honestly think they're worth sharing with everyone.
Albite and Orthoclase unfinished regenerations. She was unsure of which pick was the best.
A discarded regeneration for Moonstone because the braid would obscure the back eyes.
Moonstone (unfinished) regeneration. She thought that something felt missing and she mentioned how she wasn't sure Mona fans would like her.
Concept art of her gem comic
I don't have her permission to post these, obviously. But since her entire blog is gone now, I wanted to share her art before it's too late. Sorry.
Edit: I DID NOT DRAW THIS. THIS IS ARTIFIZIELL'S ART
At first it was supposed to be just Andrea (the fusion) but then I could give her components and why stop there? Thank you for giving me the chance to give everyone extra forms!
I also made the gemstones but I ran out of space to post 'em. Oops
Also hi how can i contact you about commissions :)
My direct messages should be open! I hope they are, let me know if they aren't, Tumblr is weird and sometimes just refuses to notify about any DM and I want to apologize in advance about it

i hope things improve for you in the near future, i know what you’re going through. you are loved 🫂 please take things easy
You know how they say that you don't choose family? You can't choose family but you can choose who to cut contact! I did so 8 years ago, best choice ever. Said family is still hurting some family but they told me they have choosen to cut contact with them too and I'm happy for them.
There's the chance I may get married next year, life gets better! I do SU art randomly not because I'm sad or anything, I'm just not into SU as I used to and the urge to do SU stuff is random so I post when I have anything ^^'
My current fav ocs are non-gem ocs and this is a SU blog and my ocs are not SU related so they're not allowed to be here + my art style is not the SU style (I just wanna make that clear since I feel like a lot of people assume that the SU style is my actual art style) so they don't tend to look very friendly either ^^'
There's Rose Diamond who serves no real purpose and I only created because a mutual needed Diamond ocs for an AU.
Chameleon Diamond, because I had an idea for a design. I wanted to do more with her but the Diamond I wrote their dynamic with was stolen and it killed my motivation (this is genuinely a rabbit hole of a story).
And Trapiche Diamond, who I never finished. I don't vibe with Diamonds and it's order, I like designing them and wonder if they should be turned into adopts. I prefer working and drawing my friends' Diamonds
