Spring/Summer Paint Commissions [closed]

Posted 3 days, 25 minutes ago by Jotaku

Aaaa so fast!!  Thank you so much for all the interest! 😭💕
I should be opening some more around the end of June/beginning of July.  Maaaayyybeee sooner if I can get these finished up early! 

~

Alrighty, so I've got two themes available to choose from this time!  The typical Spring Flowers still (your character + a flower of your choosing), and a Summery Waters theme!  Which is a little more vibes-y and experimental, and is intended to evoke being both above and under water at the same time.

Flowers examples:

Water examples from last year (oldest to newest):
a816785eb0eb7e22cb4ff4644185015c.jpg

$200 flat, paypal only.
Please be ready to send full payment within 24 hours.
Turn around will be 1-2 months. (I'm aiming to complete these in June, but things may slip into July.)
If you snagged a slot during any of my May openings, please sit this one out so others may have a chance.
Otherwise, just drop a comment to claim a slot! o/

More paint comms opening tomorrow!

Posted 3 days, 19 hours ago by Jotaku

Hello!  Just dropping a heads up that I will be opening some more paint slots tomorrow at 4pm pacific! ^^/

It'll be the same prices and set-up as my previous opening, however this time there will be both a Flower theme for spring and a Water theme for summer available!  So yeah, keep an eye out if you're interested! 💗
Oh, though if you picked up a comm during the month of May, I ask you please sit this round out for others to get a chance. 🙏

Hello~!

Just doing a super quick and casual opening for a single Spring Flowers themed commission!
It's $200 flat, paypal only.
Expected turnaround will probably be 2-4 weeks?  (So like a month, tops.)
If you've already picked up a commission from me this month, I ask that you please sit this round out so others may have the opportunity! :)

Claimed by Cori, thank you! 💗

I promise I'll be doing a proper, full opening with multiple slots and heads up notice soon -- most likely June 1st?  But for now, I just wanna take on one extra to tie things over until I'm ready for that bigger batch. 🙏

So yeah, just drop a comment to claim if interested! :D

Custom Auction! [closed ty!!]

Posted 16 days, 1 hour ago by Jotaku



e183d75b0bb4b8b775ecc19d4631c840.jpg


INFO/BREAKDOWN:
-This custom slot will have four different types available.
-The two starting types are non-special trait anthros (shortened to non-SSR anthros from here on out) and humanoids.  Non-SSR anthros include all of my anthro closed species, MYOs of others' CS, and non-CS -- I'm also lumping anything with lots of non-human body details into this type (basically, if the nude version is a focal point of the design, it goes here!).  Humanoids are basically anything, well, not anthro (humans, kemonimimis, elves, etc etc), and includes my feathirfolk CS as well -- AKA anything with little to no markings and where the outfit is a focal point of the design.
-If bids reach $500, then the option for special trait CS anthros (SSR anthros) and melwyrms will unlock.  Special traits means basically everything related to my CS now becomes available: albinos, batryes, atypical sphearra spheres, etc.
-Each type has different extras they'll unlock depending on how high the bidding goes; anthros can unlock an outfit, Melwyrms can get their wyrm form, and humanoids can get either a nude form or back view plus some art.
-The final bidding tier, which I dub the Big Boy Custom Upgrade, will include multiple mock-ups to choose from for each stage of the custom process, get my fanciest and cleanest fullbody art style, and come with an extra piece of art.  The type of art is pretty open-ended - it can be a painting, chibi, sketch page (art style similar to this, but like 3-4 drawings of your custom filling up a page), or even something like a pixel art avatar (/points to my own avatar).

RULES:
★As always, this follows my standard adopt ToS.  (+Feathirfolk info.) (+Melwyrm Info [ignore the old concept art, text info is all accurate!])
★Auction will start now and end tomorrow (5/20) at 6pm pacific. (I'll make a reminder bulletin two hours before the auction ends!)
★Paypal only; whole dollar increments only; min bid is $2
★30 minute snipe guard (any bids within the last 30 minutes will extend time until 30 minutes after last bid passes)
★Serious bidding only! Any backing out will result in a timed suspension from my sales.
★If you are still paying a previous purchase off with me, you must finish paying that off before participating in my newer sales and auctions.
Please be prepared to send the first $300 within 24 hours.  I can allow a payment plan for the rest if needed, however I prefer to keep it no longer than two months.  If bids get really high, I may be willing to extend this window to three months, but please PM me to ask first!
★Turn around will likely be about 1-2 months after payment is complete.
If your account is blank and/or new, I will require you show proof of activity somewhere (such as dA or FA, or alt TH account) in which I will note you there to confirm.

Spring Flowers commissions [closed]

Edit:  Wow, that was super quick!!  I'm sorry I can't take on everyone!  Unfortunately five at a time (these four + the one from the other day) is my limit. TwT

Spring flower comms opening in 2 days!

Posted 1 month, 2 days ago by Jotaku

Hello, hello!  I'm getting close to finishing up my previous commission batch (hoping to have them all sent out sometime within the next week!), so I'm now looking to get my next batch ready. ^^

This next opening will be two days from now, 2pm pacific on the 3rd.
It'll be the same overall set-up as [my previous opening], but only the flowers theme this time.
Slots will still be for $200 and have a turn around of about 1-2 months.
And same as before, if you snagged a slot during my previous opening, please sit this round out so others may have a chance. 🙏

HOWEVER, I'm still in need of a little extra funds before then, so I am also looking to accept 1 additional flowers slot today!  If interested, please just drop a comment to claim! :D
Taken, ty!!  Rest of the slots will be opening on the 3rd! 💗

~

Oh and also, while I'm here - I'm potentially eyeing sometime around the middle of the month for another custom auction opening.  Once things are more solidified I'll come back with an actual date, but I just wanted to put that out there as well for anyone who might be interested and want some time to prepare. ^^/

Custom auction opening on the 29th!

Posted 2 months, 7 days ago by Jotaku

Hello hello!  I just wanted to give a lil heads up that I'll be holding an (any type!) custom auction on the 29th, starting at 3pm PST!  The auction will last for about a day and will not have an AB this time around, however it will have some upgrade tiers for CS trait rarities, outfits, and art.
The starting price will be $300 and at least that much will need to be paid up front, but payment plans will be okay for the rest if needed.   

Trying so hard to get into the habit of announcing things a bit ahead of time - I'm sorry i'm so bad at it jfk;dasfd   

Also I wanna stress that this def won't be a one time thing!  I would very much like to start doing custom openings much more regularly again!  I'm not sure how regularly exactly, but maybe once a month or once every other month?  Maybe more??  Idk, gotta see how things shake out.  But goal is to have it be a much more consistent thing going forward!  So if you're interested but can't swing it this time, there will absolutely be more chances down the line, I promise!     

Snow/Flower Themed Commissions [closed]

Posted 2 months, 11 days ago by Jotaku

Edit: wow, thank you all for the interest!! 😭 😭
I wish I could draw faster so I could take everyone on at once!  Unfortunately I am but a single Jo with unfortunately slow hands jkf;das
But I will definitely be doing another opening again next month, with the goal of doing regular monthly openings going forward!  I'll also keep up a cycle of asking buyers of the previous batch to sit the next round out, so hopefully there will be lots of chances for everyone!
💕💕💕

~

Hello hello!   

I am opening another three paint commissions!  This time for either Snow or Flowers themes - buyer's choice!
Do note that I'm still finishing up a couple of my previously accepted paints, so these won't be started until sometime next month.  
Also, if you snagged a slot during my previous snow paint opening, I ask you please sit this round out so more folks can have a chance.    


Recent Examples:
(The flower theme will be in the same general style, but with a flower of your choice instead of all the snow!)

$200 flat, paypal only
Please be ready to send full payment within 24 hours
Turn around will probably be about a month? (Give or take a couple weeks depending on how fast/slow things go. ;w;)
If you're interested, drop a comment to claim slot! o/
