Free Art!

Hello everyone! Does anyone have an OC they really want to be drawn or a character they’d love to see fanart made of?

I am ✨here to assist✨!

Send me a reference and I will draw you something, free of charge. My sketchbooks are empty and I have new colored pencils and I am READY!

It is no trouble at all, I am in Artist’s Block at the moment and I need drawing ideas anyhow!

Here’s what I do:

OCs (human, furry, whatever. Please nothing too crazy or complicated. Send a full-body reference)

Fanart (any character, just send a full-body reference)

Ship art (Please no incest/pedophilia. I’m trying to stay neutral with proship vs antiship. Send a full-body reference)

I can do poses, simple backgrounds, and full-body pieces. Only thing I might not be able to do is icons but if you want to USE something of mine as an icon, go for it. Image ID comes with the art.

Rules:

NO NSFW. No porn, no visible genitalia. Cleavage is fine.

CREDIT ME. If you use my art as your icon, fine. Please just give me credit.

Don’t pester me. This is for free.

Make sure your reference that you send is SFW, and that all their clothing and face is visible.

If your OC has no reference, DESCRIBE THEM TO ME IN DETAIL.

Please for the love of fuck respond quickly if I ask for clarification. If you don’t, I might just forget about your request (dysfunctional brain go brrr)

I cannot get you your art in any way other than DMing it to you or responding to your ask.

The askbox is [OPEN] for submissions!!

(And, here is the masterpost of all of my OCs in case anyone would like to return the favor: https://thatcontrolfangirl.tumblr.com/post/691714855615479808/the-big-ole-post-of-my-ocs )

The Big Ole Post Of My OCs!!

All of my OCs come from a cartoony fishing town in Maine called Slate Beach, in a world where supernatural creatures live alongside humans.

Live long and prosper!

My art style (and bonus Star Trek art 🙂)

“the way autistic people express empathy can seem strange to others, and they might be incorrectly seen as unempathetic when in reality, the problem is miscommunication” AND “many autistic people have low or no empathy, and talking about this does not promote stereotypes or make us bad people” can and should coexist.

[thatcontrolfangirl]

I kinda wanna talk about my empathy situation because I think it’s a bit unique to my specific autism.

I have slightly low cognitive empathy and even lower affective empathy. I don’t feel the emotions of others unless they are extremely close to me and I know them very well. This never changes for me no matter the situation. I can, however, sometimes understand the emotions of people I know because I have a little cognitive empathy. I can’t often put myself in someone’s shoes but I understand emotions enough to understand why someone might be sad, or angry, or happy.

Example: a friend is crying because their dog died. I don’t know this dog, this is not a sad occasion for me personally. I don’t cry or get sad, in fact this event might be annoying for a split second because it ruins whatever I was going to do with the friend. However this feeling isn’t permanent and usually passes quickly. However, I can understand that my friend is sad because their dog died and might need a friend to listen to them. I will still be BAD at comforting them because I cannot fix the problem and autism makes communication in general hard. Either way, I end up at least trying to comfort my friend. The end goal is the same, I just skip the step of getting emotional because my brain doesn’t work like that.

Honestly I don’t understand empathy at all. I get cognitive empathy, understanding someone’s emotions is useful. Affective empathy, or, feeling someone else’s emotions, though, is a mystery to me. Isn’t it harder to do things when you’re getting emotional over someone else? Hyperempaths/ normal empathy ppl please fill me in.

high empathy autistics: left out and underdiagnosed because many professionals thought all autistics have low empathy

high empathy autistics: earn their rightful place in the autism community after lots of advocacy

autism community, including low empathy autistics: we can have high empathy or low empathy! not all autistics are low empathy but we need solidarity

(some) high empathy autistics: actually no, low empathy autism isn’t real, we actually all have high empathy! we’re just misunderstood teehee! Also empathy equals being a good person and if you don’t have empathy you’re an abuser. (HEAVY sarcasm of course)

low empathy autistics, who have literally done nothing wrong and are now being pushed out of the community: wtf?

[​this is a VENT POST, don’t start discourse. Either use that empathy you love to boast about and put yourself in my position, or just scroll away]

I'm not the first to say this. I won't be the last to say this.

But if you support Autistics, you need to support all Autistics.

Support the ones with moderate needs, the ones with high needs. The ones that are loud. The ones that haven't learnt any social skills and are seen as embarrassing by allistics.

Support the ones who are hyperverbal and talk way too much about their special interest.

Support the ones who are nonverbal and communicate with AAC and struggle to be heard.

Support the ones with stereotypical behaviours and then ones who mask so hard they deny they're autistic at all.

Support the Autistic parents who are exhausted all the time and the Autistics who still live with their parents.

Support Autistics all the time. Not just when they make you feel good.

[thatcontrolfangirl]

Support Autistics with low/no empathy!

Support Autistics with intellectual disabilities!

Support Autistics who weren’t gifted kids!

Support Autistics who were in special education!

Support the Autistics who are so often demonized or left out by the community

No, I have normal empathy (doesn’t cause you problems in your life/relationships

Yes, I have no empathy

Depends on the day/situation

No, my problems with empathy come from another disorder (NPD, ASPD, etc)

Just a reminder that low empathy does not equal bad person, people with personality disorders are not inherently abusive, and self-proclaimed “empaths” can fuck off
