COMMISSIONS ARE CLOSED

Prices are listed in both Euro and USD (approximate conversion as of 16 of October 2023)

Extra characters in one pic will be +10 euro, except the draconified-tier, there the price is at least 30 per draconified character. (I may be willing to do other animals too, but I put dragon because that's what I do most.)

Backgrounds for regular art is 10 euro (20 for lineless)

Rules:

No NSFW

If you want free art the price goes up by 5 euro every time you ask. It doubles for every insult (on top of the +5 you already got for begging).

Your commission request must include a random animal fact.

I may refuse commissions that I feel are too advanced (like including multiple humans or other creatures I'm generally not confident in drawing). Yes I may do things like that on my own time sometimes, but I don't feel confident enough accepting money for it if you hava very specific idea in mind.

More art examples bellow the break.

Ugh...why can't every single holiday be dedicated to ME and MY interests?

[usagi-zakura]

Reminder if this is your first time using Art Fight and you haven't posted any characters yet do it NOW.

Because the website will inevitably chug horribly the first day from everyone trying to get to it and download references and post art. :p

Happens every year. It gets better as the month goes on, but it's a lot easier to prepare before the event starts. (I personally post OCs to Artfight all year)

(Of course don't start making attacks yet, that's against the rules)

Also if you find some characters that you want to attack on the first day just download their references to your device before the event starts. That way you can still get started on drawing once the event actually begins, even if the website is down, and post them once the site is working again.

I'll probably pick mine tomorrow when the website isn't chugging so badly.

I don't really know which one I want tho...

I clicked random. I am now team Mystery.

Which feels appropriate for clicking random X3

Hey jackass, this isn't how it works.

Tumblr Staff doesn't contact you through a mass tag on a public post with an account name like that.

If anyone else got tagged in this DO NOT follow any of the advice given in the post. Report and block. If anyone tells you your account is being limited via DM, a post or ask BLOCK AND REPORT.

This is a SCAM.

Following the advice in this post is how you get your account stolen. Probably your credit card too just for good measure.

"Hey Usagi, who's your favorite Doctor?" Said nobody but I'm answering anyway the best way I know how: With furrydragon art.

[usagi-zakura]

You know I haven't watched Doctor Who in ages...the last episode I saw was the special with David Tennant and Ncuti Gatwa.... which was great despite be not having seen much of the previous seasons (I watched Jodie Wittakers' first episode and while I did like her as the Doctor...I was kinda over the show as a whole at the time) but I'm still miffed about the news of the next Christmas special and the future of the show as a whole being up in limbo atm...

It made me think I wanted to add another character to Art Fight though... One I haven't thought about in many years...before I stopped watching Doctor Who even...

That's right...The return of the Jerkhorse. ...At least on Art Fight. You can draw him. And attack me with art of him.

Behold, a dragon.

“Asexuality and aromanticism are spectrums. Asexual and aromantic people can have sex and fall in love. They’re not robots.”

Well, it would probably be easier for me to take my robot vacuum cleaner out to dinner and have sex with it afterward than it would be with a sex-repulsed asexual person or a romance-repulsed aromantic person.

So, yes, I agree, they’re not robots.

Stop dehumanizing sex-repulsed asexual and romance-repulsed aromantic people. Yes, asexuality and aromanticism are spectrums but some people seem to forget that repulsed asexuals/aromantic people belong on those spectrums too.

They are valuable people, and even though they don’t do sex or romance, they have hearts. And those hearts can be broken by aphobic and arophobic comments like these.

[usagi-zakura]

And why do we need to have sex and fall in love to not be considered robots?

Do allosexuals want to have sex with all their friends? No. Do alloromantics want to date their families? No. At least the vast majority do not.

Friendship exists... it's not all about sex.

I also sometimes feel like even in the asexual-community that my preferences get undermined when people go "well you could still want sex/romance.." I could...but I don't.

I hate sex, I don't wanna do it, I don't wanna look at it, I don't wanna hear about it, I'd prefer not to even think about it. I just wanna play games with my friends.

[usagi-zakura]

If there's a holiday you feel should exist...it probably does. You've just been ignoring it for years, except when Pride Month is going on.

Like cancelling your own birthday party and then being upset no one celebrates you on your sibling's party.

Its official; Being a straight man is now gay.

So says the Manosphere. (Yes this is based on real tweets...)

Late one night before the Switch 2 was turned off

A wobbly gentleman came in, his footing was unsure.

Mustachioed and handsome and his clothing touched the floor.

He was no man at all he was three kobolds in a trenchcoat!

I've seen some people from the UK complaining about heat waves lately, wondering where the nasty cold rain they usually get is...

Don't worry I found it.

It's here in Norway.

Please come pick it up, I want summer. Could we please go back to sharing the rain instead of you getting all the heat and us getting all the rain?

[usagi-zakura]

I've considered making another draconified ball from the LGBallT-verse... who's a sort of recurring character now I suppose...

That being this bitch:

My idea for her is to draw her looking as traditionally feminine as possible, even though the furrydragons the way I draw them don't exhibit much sexual dimorphism...

I had an idea to mix just the most obnoxious "this is a girl" design tropes from animation, like slapping long human hair on top of an animal-character for no reason, she's gotta be pink because girls are pink, more cat-like than dog-like because that's a thing for some reason, skinny, but weirdly busty in the chest-region even if she doesn't have any boobs because she's an animal... and also a giant pink bow just in case you forgot she's a girl.

That just feels fitting to me for someone who thinks they can "always tell" when someone is trans or not.

As for a name...I was thinking Tina. Mainly because I want it to start with a T. and Terfina doesn't really sound right. (and Joanne would be too direct :p I'm not trying to make a dragon version of a real person)

Any suggestions for other "obnoxiously female" traits I can give her design?
