I've been wondering if it was unfair to prevent traded designs from being sold with money...

apparently doing so will limit the chance for my designs to be rehomed. and usually the designs are traded with other characters to make up its original price, right? so why can't they be converted back to monetary value when current owner needs it?

that's what I thought. so I made a little clarification in terms of trading and gifting rules - you guys can read it here.

I don't know if that's a wise decision. I want my TOS to be as relaxed as possible. I also want to open a chance for other artists to more or less benefit from my stuffs with their own effort but y'know scammers and bullshit people might have taken advantages of TOSes like mine in the past that's why most are so reserved regarding character trading terms. so anyone have an opinion/experience about it please make your voice heard I really need others' judgment in this.

I'll change design's resell/trade/gift status after final decision.

almost a month ago I started drawing these critters taken straight out of manuscript illustrations. ink on paper, colors and background decoration were edited digitally. I thought it'd be quick (actually it was a lot quicker than working 100% on digital medium but then I lost interest in the middle of it all and just o)-( ), happened several times before.

I have 6 in total in this series. should have been 7 but the last one looks so ugly I don't want anyone else to see it. I'll upload all in seperate sales - one by one, because it's hard for me to handle multiple comments and replies in short period of time. plus I haven't finished the background for remaining 5, gonna deal with them soon.

I'm done editing characters info which I wanted to rehome about 8 hours ago but I didn't think a lot of people will notice so I hop right onto bed and sleep without making any announcement I'm sorry

anyway here's the resale folder: https://toyhou.se/groteska/characters/folder:4029278

priority is money offers. art trade will also be considered but please don't keep your hopes too high       

thank you for reading I'll be back to dissociating until someone pokes me with an offer

undeveloped characters are piling up and I don't have enough time to think of all their roles in my world setting...

I already moved everyone on the list to waiting room folder. the price will be decided soon.

I've been using Bluesky for a while thanks to Nocturn02 ^q^

Thank you for reading!

I've been silent for a while. some things happened over here, I wasn't involved but it's been bothering me a lot so I had almost no time to draw.

in general I'm fine so no worries I'm still alive just don't have much energy to put my effort into drawing. but things have to be better soon or I'll quit drawing completely and start working as a full-time psychic. no joke 💀

Lunar New Year is coming close so I'm afraid there won't be much time left for me to taking care of this TH account. I'll try to pump out some more adoptables until then.

and finally best luck to all of you in 2024 who are reading this ✨

I've been thinking about adding Ko-fi to available payment methods. direct transactions from Paypal invoice is still available, it's just

I don't think using only Paypal is efficient in the long term since it has increased the service charge for a while and I don't want to charge people with those additional fees. Wise seems to be a better replacement but it will take me some time to figure out. so for now I'll take Ko-fi as first steps to slowly move away from Paypal invoices.

also I have some stuffs I think I can sell besides adoptable designs on Ko-fi. tbh for the last few months I haven't been in the right mood to draw adoptables although I never run out of ideas. I hope selling drawings works better for me.

anyway here's my Ko-fi page: https://ko-fi.com/groteska

thank you for visiting my page. I'll return with new adoptable design soon (   ❛︵❛.)

goddammit hi I'm back on drawing adoptables. couldn't finish drawtober last month because I have short attention span - plus my balance is near zero I can't keep drawing unprofitable stuffs.

I'm trying to finish the Asian zodiac series, this boy right here being the 5th following the order.

you guys can click on the image to check out the new design. have a nice day ( ͡° ᴥ ͡°)

long story short I took a 2019 Hyggetober prompt list to do Inktober this year which is essentially OCtober because all I do is drawing stuffs about my OCs.

yeah I know that sounds broken.

anyway it's 3rd day in already and this is how things are going so far

I'm posting everything about the challenge on my twitter and tumblr account, so if anyone's interested please visit either of these sites.

thank you for paying attention, I'll crawl my way to bed now.

I've just got done drawing so I'm kinda overhyped 

gonna show you guys 2 Theo designs

these two are 1 year apart.

that's it. thank you for coming to my ted talk.
