oh hey, new folks!
since i’ve gotten some new followers, here’s a bit about me!
my name’s kelsey michele, though you can find me around the internet (instagram, twitter, my two other tumblrs) as toughtink or variations of that. i’m a professional artist, designer, and cosplayer working mostly in the themed entertainment industry, which means i’ve designed rides, attractions, shops, restaurants, signage, stories, and events. most of that work is sadly under NDA, so i can’t share it. OTL but in my free time, i like to design fashion & costumes as well as make lots of fanart. i also sew & cosplay some of the things i design!
i’ve begun doing at least one brand new design every month for my patreon, so if that’s something you’d like to see more of, go check that out! i also release wallpapers with the month’s art, downloadable prints, and a design sheet with a turn around and detailed construction notes for anyone wanting to see how to make it or some of the thought that goes into my art. i’m also trying to do a public companion piece each month, too. oh, and there’s lots of cosplay stuff over on patreon. it’s a package deal.
i do take art commissions for illustrations and character/costume designs, though they aren’t always open. currently, i have a waiting list for new commissions.
