New: Dràcait feral adopts [closed]

Posted 1 year, 10 days ago by Jotaku

Edit: oh wow, thank you all for the interest!!  I really wasn't sure if these would be something folks would want.  I'll def see about doing more in the future, esp cuz they were really nice to work on as a break between other things/customs/etc.  ;V;   

~~~

I wanted to draw something a bit different for a change, and somehow found myself with an entirely new species!  I have no idea how often I'll make these or if there's even much of a demand for feral creature adopts from me?  But figured what the heck, why not!

So may I introduce: the Dràcait!
They're a strange lil mix of cat and dragon, they grow to about hip tall, and come with either three or four sets of horns/antlers.
[size comparison concept sketch]

I also roughed out some ideas on what a potential human form might look like in case anyone wants to anthropomorphize their dràcait.
Idk if I'll ever make them myself since the whole point of the species was to draw something other than humans, but the option is there nonetheless!

If y'all would like to see more of these little critters going forward, also please let me know!  I've never done feral adopts before, so really have no idea what the interest in them is like. /w\

Spring Flowers portrait commissions!

Posted 1 year, 1 month ago by Jotaku

Edit:  Thank you all so much for the interest!  I'll aim to work through what I can during this week, and then will make a fresh post/opening again for next week!    

Hello y'all!  I'm looking to ease myself into painting comms again as a way to mix things up between customs/adopts.
It's been a while, so I'm starting with only accepting one at a time, but I'll very likely take on a couple more over the week so if you're interested please go ahead and drop a comment even if the slot is taken!
These are gonna be kinda messy/quick paints that I can finish in one sitting over a few hours, so the turn around should be within a couple of days from when I accept.  

Basically, you provide me with your character and a flower of choice, and I'll paint them!
There will be the slight suggestion of a background, but otherwise no other props/foreground/etc. aside from the flowers.

Example //
ce2c070ce0fdd7ce814a75e55bba6ad0.jpg

$175, paypal only
Payment should be sent within 24 hours
Please note this style of comm will not include WIPs and edits will only be made for mistakes on my end (eg missing details, wrong colors, etc)

slots:
1. buttermaster
2. Spacejackal
3. Elissinia
4. anguiculus

Melwyrm Auction [closed]

Posted 1 year, 2 months ago by Jotaku

Been quite a long time since I've done a big fancy adopt!  I've actually been working on this one on and off for a few months now kf;lasfd (and have a couple more in various stages of WIPs that will hopefully see the light of day eventually too lol).

Lil Feathirfolk flat sale! (closed ty!)

Posted 1 year, 2 months ago by Jotaku

Hello, hello!  I come bearing multiple offerings today!
I'm opening one semi-blind custom as well as selling the Feathirfolk below for $140 flat.
I will also be opening a bigger melwyrm auction in just a bit, though I wanted to give that its own post.  It should be going up in about an hour (6pm pacific)  (Sneak peek! :D)

~

For the semi-blind custom slot:
- It's $500 for a melwyrm (or $700 with wyrm form) - OR - $275 (or $450 for base design + outfit design) for a non-melwyrm.  A non-wyrm custom can be for blakryes, sphaerras, feathirfolk, non-species, outfit designs, and MYOs.  Higher rarity traits (such as albinos, batryes, etc) are off-limits.
- At least $275 should be paid up front & within 24 hours, but I can allow some extra wiggle room for paying off the remainder - please just let me know what kinda timeframe you'd need. :)
- You can see some previous examples of these customs here!
- For this type of custom I send one WIP for edits after I have the design fully roughed out.  I don't do super extensive editing rework for these, nor do I offer step-by-step mock-ups like with my past bigger customs -- it's mostly a you-get-what-you-get type thing with a little room for adjusting along the way.
- I can provide a form if you prefer, but am also totally chill with working off of open-ended prompts, collages, and pinterest boards!

As for the feathirfolk!  
It's $140 flat, paypal only.  
As always, this follows my standard adopt TOS, and you can view info about feathirfolk here.
