Character Design Commissions Open, Sort Of
2 years ago
As of a few minutes ago, I just posted the first full character commission I've done in quite a long time. People who've followed me through my long history on this site know that I was primarily an artist known for character designs, and I'll be taking on some work again from now on. There's just some stuff I want to mention before opening any floodgates and openly seeing if anyone wants anything. Mainly that I'm a lot different than I used to be and that I didn't just stop drawing because I got bored, it became a psychological complex and I got less and less enjoyment out of it until I just hated the act of doing so. I've done little things for myself when the need arises over the last few years, but this is my first attempt at actually trying to do a bit more.
That being said, I am a lewd novelist first and foremost. It is not my intention to ever go back to having art be my primary thing again. Spending hours and hours on a piece of art doesn't fulfill me the same way that writing a few pages of a story with *my* characters in a fraction of that time does. The main reason I'm doing this is to start affording more things for my books- character references, cover art, commercial licenses to use those to things, more art in general of my characters, audiobook development, hopefully, and so on. Clarifying this because I'm not interested in doing anything other than what I'm offering- character designs.
For the comms themselves, look at the example I just posted.

The characters are flat colored, and they are drawn in mirror mode from the front only. That doesn't mean I won't ever incorporate asymmetrical aspects. It's just a general time-saving thing. Accessories and junk cost extra depending on what's discussed. While not necessary, I would vastly prefer to be making characters that exist in the setting of my series, like that catboy does. That's why he has a rank and class noted on the sheet, as he's an adventurer in my world. The reason is simple, I'm more invested this way, and if I end up liking the character, it would be easy to reference them in a book sometime. This might complicate some things as I'm assuming most of you reading this are furries, and while there are anthros and furries in my setting they have certain racial traits that'd need to be explained.
My setting is very expansive though, and can accommodate most standard fantasy/D&D things, and you're obviously free to use the character for whatever the hell you want past that. It's just if you say I want a gnome, I might have to explain the kind of culture they have in my setting and things like that. But really I just want to be doing more of what I'm doing, mostly fantasy characters and stuff that would generally fit in my world. I don't think it's that limiting.
If you DO get a character in my setting, I'll also include a free copy of the first volume of The Corruption of Coye as a bonus if you're interested! In fact, here's a free code to redeem a digital (US) copy on Amazon. The first person who clicks it, gets it- https://www.amazon.com/kindle/redee.....S3QHZ9Z4BN8UN4
You are free to hit me up about characters not in my setting, but I'll mostly be looking for things that interest me and will turn down anything that doesn't. I don't want to make myself fully hate drawing again and forcing myself to constantly do junk I wasn't invested in was one of the largest reasons it happened.
I'm pretty much going to only be doing one at a time to ensure there's no pressure on my part, but turnaround will be relatively quick I'd imagine. I'm just hesitant about working with new people because as I've said this is still mentally taxing for me, and I don't want to deal with people who don't know what they're getting into with me and will request tons and tons of revisions past the point of it being worth my time.
General prices will start at $60, which includes the NSFW reference, and additional accessories like weapons and junk will generally be $10 unless its something super easy. I'm also up for alternative outfits, prices ranging on whatever we're talking about.
With all of that said... feel free to comment below, dm me, message me on discord via PunishedKom#2722, or whatever if you're interested.
