Do you have any TOS for your designs? Also, what are your boundaries in regards to someone taking inspiration from your work? Is it something you allow, something you dont prefer, etc
I've neglected to post a TOS, so apologies in advance for the loose terms.
For designs I've made to sell, trade, ect:
- Designs can be edited as long as I approve of the edits
- Designs can only be traded/sold for more if worth has been added on from art.
- Emotional/personal value is fine but that needs to be proven (like gift art can be added to the worth even if it wasn't paid for, it is emotional value)
- Emotional/personal value is fine but that needs to be proven (like gift art can be added to the worth even if it wasn't paid for, it is emotional value)
For design inspiration:
- It's all about design points, if someone wants to be inspired and use a design element from one of my characters, I cannot stop them. I am not, however, okay with someone taking multiple elements from a design and making a character from that. It's often ends up more a ripoff (If it's obvious something was being referenced, then too much was taken)
- I am not comfortable with people creating "ripoffs" (this also includes kinsonas) of my characters
- Because people also misconstrued "inspiration" with stuff like tracing, I don't want anyone doing that with my work
I guess it's really a case-to-case basis. I am usually pretty lenient if people ask permission/fully explain what their intentions are and walk me though it beforehand, but yeah. If ya have any further questions, lmk and I can answer em. I really need to put this as a bulletin eventually lol
Thank you for being so detailed! I appreciate you putting your time into this and will 100% remember it for the future.
Honestly, back when I was really into FAITH, I loved seeing everything you did for Louis Reed. (Back then I was also admittedly unaware that a blank design terms on TH was typically a cue that you should ask the artist directly if you have a question)
I loved the general idea of a priest having a demon form, and in particular when you posted this image I was thrilled by how you stylized the sprite style and thought, “that’d be a much easier way to think of/draw a character for FAITH!” And I ended up making this design that someone else now actually owns.
I remember back then though I made a conscious effort not to be too close to your Louis Reed, as I knew obvious rip-offs at least are never okay, but I wanted to ask now with the new information I have if they’re too close for your comfort, and if there’s anything I can do to remedy that if so.
Oh haha, I remember seeing when you made it at the time in the faith tag! I think I offered to trade for them at some point (I remember liking em lol), but I'm pretty sure it was already pending to the new owner
I don't mind for that guy! A lot of faith ocs tend to have a priest that becomes a demon, I know for sure that Louis isn't the only one (and while I was on the earlier side of the FAITH fan character train, I'm pretty sure he wasn't the first of his kind either). Since the only art is of a more simplified sprite version, as long as a more detailed version looks less like Louis, I'd be satisfied ^^
Plus it looks like the demon form is more of a combo of Amy Martin's possessed form crossed with Michael Davies (the face hole with an arm plus the white emaciated body), while Louis' demon form is supposed to be a cross between Michael and the Wretch. Simillar vibes, but not enough to copy yet. Like I said, there's still a lot of stuff that can be fiddled with the design to make em more different than Louis, tho if it stays just like this, that'd be fine too!
Helloo!! Such a long time <33
I hope this is ok to ask, but do you happen to have art trades or comms open? :0c

Offers are totally fine, no worries!
The only bbs in your TH that'd I'd love to have would be Panque and Evangeline.
Would trade both BMO and Thing for either of those. Totally valid if not tho cuz aaa
Heyhey! I saw you own JJ now and I do hope they found a great home (and without this creep to stalk you I hope) have you see that Kai (3peps) try to contact you regarding that "Fleshpit have stole JJ and give it to u" ? Homie will not leave people alone 💀
I see !
They have made a community post regarding jj and they said "if you see this post please contact me on Insta" so that's why I was asking if you saw this
If Kai wishes to argue his points, my accounts are open for him to contact me.
I understand the current situation, and I do not have any obligation to be the person to reach out first.
I have no issues. Kai is the one with issues here, so if he wishes to dispute ownership, it is his responsibility to contact me.
OH MY LORD! YOUR ART IS BEAUTIFUL! ERM ARE YOUR ATS (art trades)OPEN? I can dm you on discord with examples if you’d like :3
Hi would anyone in my toyhouse interest you at all? I'm still very interested in your backrooms guy! You can pick anyone in my toyhouse as long as they aren't tagged with "never" (unless they're not being used)
hello! so sorry for the bother but i just wanted to see if you have any ocs that youd be interested in my th! just gonna see for future reference if this makes sense (so sorry for my broken english oops)
I saw you favorited Apollo a while ago and I just wanted to know if you would want to trade for them ^^
Btw this is Apollo; https://toyhou.se/9231840.apollo
Omg yeah!! I would love to trade for Apollo! We're there any characters of mine that interested you?
I can 100% do Riot! But I'm too attached to Kupoi to trade em unfortunately aa
Would just trading Riot be alright? All good if not
Oog that's a hard choice I'm very attached to the majority of my Churro designs. If you're interested in swaps tho, any of these guys peak your interest? I can do multiples as these are the designs I own that I'm having difficulty drawing/connecting the most

Hi do you do custom trades by any chance ;0;? I love your art and designs Here are some of my examples https://toyhou.se/CatPHONE/art?page=2#59586652 https://toyhou.se/CatPHONE/art#61417517 https://toyhou.se/CatPHONE/art#62195696 https://toyhou.se/CatPHONE/art?page=2#59586548 https://toyhou.se/CatPHONE/art?page=2#60336337
Apologies, I wouldn't be willing to do both. I can do Riot alone instead of my previous offer of Sugar alone if you're interested in Riot more tho
Their worth is kinda up in the air lol
I traded my scarfox for her (worth ~ $75 as an myo if I'm remembering correctly), traded her away for like 10 fullbodies, but she was sold back to me for $20
So I guess $20? pff
oh, just saw the edit. I would not be willing to do Sugar + art adds. I don't have a lot of time for art (cuz of school) and I'd rather just trade a character :')
Mainly just characters from here https://toyhou.se/doughgutz/characters/tagged:NOT%20SUPER%20ATTACHED/folder:all

This user is not visible to guests.
Oo ok! Well here are all of my HQ characters in my Trade tag! Any interest in characters there?
I might still be a bit tentative with some, but I'll let ya know if there's anyone listed I wouldn't trade outright ^^
also here's just the normal trade tag for good measure
You have such cool art & ocs!! I also noticed you have a Lego Monkie Kid(?) OC? :0 if so, I love that show too!
Yes! @Sukky makes adorable Lego Monkie Kid characters, and I had the great opportunity to commission them for my gal Nina
Highly recommend them, they're an amazing artist
I also of course loooove the show too, I'm just not the best at replicating the style lol

IM A CURATOR ON THERE! IVE BEEN ON THERE FOR LIKE THREE YEARS,,
YOUR ART GIVES ME SO MUCH GOOD NOSTALGIA <33
Hey hello! Sorry for the weird question, but I wanted to ask u cause you're only of the only mutuals I have! Would u be interested in sharing a couple of characters? I hace two Ocs that are a couple, they come togheter, and I figured out that it would be so much fun to share them with someone so we can like, draw them, discuss about them, or just talk about the bbys, u know? 👉👈
I have this couple, if u're interested ^^ https://toyhou.se/9993385.angel-aristolo
If not we can just, idk, make one!
Ah, okay then!
Is there anyone in this folder that interests you for them? Offlimits are the mains and nfo, offlimits, and do not offer tags (though if you only liked characters with those tags, you can lmk who and there's a chance I MIGHT give them away). The foreverhomed tag means I'm tent. You can go outside if you'd like, but the folder has most of my more higher quality ocs.
Just letting you know I have a lot — and I mean A LOT — of ocs and folders, so I understand if you're not able to look through my whole th.
You've already asked and I've already said, I'm only looking for swaps (other sirfluff designs)! That goes for all of my sirfluff designs
I may also consider characters from my faves list
https://toyhou.se/doughgutz/favorites
But that's a maybe that depends on who you're interested in

I...I have no idea how else to say this. I am so deeply in love with your fandom characters and my god are they so fantastically built story wise and their designs in of themselves are practically perfect. is it okay if I draw fanart? I’m sorry I’m just. in awe. they’re so cool ;w;’

Ah, even though Loute was so forward with it, I'm inclined to agree. I've paid a lot of money or traded other HQ ocs for these characters, and unfortunately since the value wouldn't be matched, I wouldn't be willing to trade. I'm grateful for your offer, but unfortunately there just isn't enough there to make the trade fare.
Quick question-
Are you willing to do a custom in exchange for a character or multiples? If not, may I take a peek at your prices if you have any? 👀
(Also, congrats on getting the Dream insp kiddo! :0)
Alright! Do you see anyone in my TH that interests you? (The only one off limits is Kaori)
Ahh I’m willing to do her if the custom is a ref or extra art since I really connect with her-
omg yeah! I'd be willing to do a big ref for the custom, like these
https://sta.sh/05j3ww6fp9z (but not pixelart)
https://toyhou.se/5372879.louis-reed#24771041
https://sta.sh/0kfo0dbeyle
I can also add on an extra piece of art if that's not enough ^^
Hi! I was wondering If i could offer 176 Ac + 65 Point's and a few Shaded sketch headshot's ( Can be traditional or Digital ) for this Little man? : https://toyhou.se/5825858.evan-folds

Well without spoiling it, the basics is that you control this guy called "The Batter", who has a sacred mission to purify the zones of spectres/evil beings. You eventually find the leaders of these zones are evil too, so you gotta purify those guys as well. It's basically 'See monster, kill monster, save the day'

As much as I like your art, I'm just not looking for just that for either Skie or Carnage. And I didn't see anyone in your th I'd use either, sorry
May I ask if your doing design/art trades/commissions though? Your art is truly adorable ^^

I'd love it if you created a character inspired by the game OFF. Basically any kind of character similar to these guys would be great! :D

aa omg ok, imma try my luck here then :>
for any of ur sirfluff bbs (ive wanted a sirfluff design for so long lmao at this point i aint picky) does anyone in my toyhouse interest you?? the only one off limits is four, and i can maybe do multiples. and i can do art as an add on!! ^^
As much as I'd love to help you get a sirfluff design, I didn't see anyone in your toyhouse that I'd use, I'm sorry.
alright!! tysm for looking ^^
one more question-
if youd ever consider selling any of em, whats the one youd sell for the least? (if that makes any sense,,)
i mean like in terms of selling, which one would you sell for the least amount of money so i can try to save up :0
The only sirfluff design I could/ would be willing to sell would be https://toyhou.se/4575425.sleepy-cass, but the least I would sell her for would be for $80
edit: as that's what I bought her for
Hi there! I'm not too sure how much this fella is worth https://toyhou.se/1729517.bandit
What's the least you'd take for them? :o I also can offer up some art if you'd like- I don't have many good examples here since I don't use this site much, but! I can show some examples of my art here real quick:
would you take $50 and 2 fully shaded full-bodies (priced around $90 USD based on my comms) for https://toyhou.se/2789708.kit ?
This user's account has been closed.
Hello, i wanna offer for: https://toyhou.se/7465007.strider and https://toyhou.se/8083080.lemmy
