These can be private/not posted to my socials if you prefer these designs to stay entirely personal. Asking for privacy rights on tattoos is a 25% increase in cost. Even without, only you have the rights to get the design tattooed, and the design will not later be sold for any reason or allowed as a tattoo design purchase in the future.

If you're interested in getting my work done on a tighter budget, I have plenty of one-off flash designs and multi-use tattoo sheets available on my Ko-Fi Shop!

Please Note: These are entirely artistic liberty pieces. This means there are no work-in-progress check ins, and only minor edits may be made at the completed stage. You're very welcome to suggest moods, aesthetics, or provide lore/symbolism for the character, but I cannot guarantee a specific style, composition, or level of detail.If you're unsure, you can inquire about an estimate for a specific budget -- however, pieces vary depending on the character, what I wish to practice/experiment with, and other factors. If you're looking for a specific piece, please consider a standard commission!

F.A.Q.

I will draw any species, regardless of animal, human(oid), mecha, or other. I am comfortable with all body types and other features. :)

I will draw NSFW content, though there is an additional charge. I also reserve the right to keep these commissions private.

I will not draw bigoted or hateful content. I may refuse a commission due to comfort levels.

Payments are taken through PayPal invoice only. Commissions over $100 offer payment plans as discussed prior to invoicing.

Tattoo commissions are for personal use only unless otherwise discussed. These commissions are exclusively for your use, with the exception of tattoos commissioned through the Pay What You Want method.

Yes, I take commissions for artwork that may be used as stickers, patches, stamps, book covers, etc. There is a commercial fee that varies depending upon the intended use of the project.

Unless the project is agreed upon as a commercial project, my work cannot be repurposed for any monetary gain. Please email me with any questions or inquiries.

Turnaround time varies from project to project, anywhere from a week for sketches to three months for very large illustrations. If you need a piece by a certain date, please let me know beforehand! Most projects are completed in under two months.

I usually check in at the sketch and lineart stages. These are the most pivotal points in the work and most critical for changes. Changes made after the lineart stage incur a fee. On more complex commissions, I may also check in at the flat color stage.

There are commission types that do not get work-in-progress check-ins. Please ensure you read carefully in the description!

I occasionally take same-day commissions. If given the okay, a same-day commission is +100% of the cost and delivered within 24 hours. Feel free to ask if this is something available.

I don't always colorpick from reference sheets. Depending on the mood of the piece, I may be drawing from a specific color palette. This should never affect skin tone.

I also reference the species listed on the reference sheet, so your character may draw from more realistic features. (This is especially the case for big cats and deer). My style leans more experimental in nature. If you feel as though a feature extremely important to your character is inaccurate, please inform me. I'm more than happy to fix it.

I'm more than happy to draw characters with a wide variety of diversity. I will not charge extra for disability-aiding objects, prosthetics, etc. If you have a question about my portfolio, feel free to ask!
