It's been a while since I've done anything social on here. Figured I'd give a little info about myself for those who aren't familiar:

My name's Payne. I'm a 30-something year old artist from the rural American midwest. My pronouns are he/they. I went to uni in Los Angeles, and have a bachelor's degree in biology (focused on avian ecology). Currently, I sporadically open for artistic freelance work but, due to disability, I don't work for long periods.

My first love in life is animal care-taking. I've done a few wildlife rehabilitation and education gigs in the past. I own two cats and a macaw. I love chitchatting about the latter!

Artistically, I have a bit of formal education, but am self-taught in most media I use. I'm largely a digital 2D/3D artist, with a particular interest in character-focused art, original stories, and low fidelity visuals. I have some training in traditional drawing and oil painting.

Overall, I try to maintain a chill space, even if I'm not a very talkative person. Feel free to say hi or ask any questions I might be able to answer for you, whether it's about me or my process or whatever. If you're shy, I have anonymous asks open on tumblr currently: https://birdologist.tumblr.com/ask

Cheers! o/

Trying out being more active on those sites, now that I've basically given up trying to have a public twitter presence. Still going to be active here, just things like little doodles and such that don't warrant a whole submission might not get posted. If you're interested in those, your best bet is one of my socials.

Been a bit since I've made a journal. Hello everyone! I've been quiet here for a while, so I suppose if anyone has anything they want to ask or comment or whatever, feel free? I'll do my best to be more responsive.

A few reminders regarding other places I'm at.

I'm most active on my personal twitter ( https://twitter.com/teamtiefling ); feel free to request access, just please don't take it personally if I'm skittish that day and don't immediately accept.

Beyond that, catch me being generally more social on socials:
https://birdologist.tumblr.com/
https://route-thirteen.tumblr.com/
https://twitter.com/routethirteen

wanted to post something after my last journal some months ago. doing well beyond some health flickers here and there. slow and steady wins the race i suppose. couple reminders:

catch things first / only at my twitter or tumblr: https://twitter.com/routethirteen OR https://birdologist.tumblr.com/

I've been dealing with an ongoing family emergency since September, and yesterday my family member was able to pass peacefully. Thank you everyone for your patience and your company.

I feel it's better to be a bit more personable and give y'all an update on me. Cheers.

Ever willing to try gallery site alternatives, you can find me on Sheezy and Buzzly. Buzzly is currently open registration afaik, while Sheezy should open registrations every Friday ( per https://twitter.com/Sheezy_Art/stat.....13143376621571 ). That being said:

Just a once-in-a-while reminder that my twitter gets more uploads than my gallery here does. Not planning on leaving or anything, just a note if you'd like to see more doodles in addition to the stuff here.

Hey folks! I'm opening for a few commissions. Sketches start at $30 USD, but I have a few different categories available. I have a couple things left in my queue, so I expect new orders will be started on at the beginning of the month.

Info / prices / examples: https://routethirteen.net/#comms
Order form: closed

Slots are not FCFS, accepted orders will be contacted within a couple days. Please note me if you have questions. Thank you!

Opening for a few commissions of any type! This will probably be my last general opening before the end of the year, so if you're wanting anything for the holidays, now would be the best time.

Commission examples, prices, info: https://routethirteen.net/#comms
Commission order form: https://forms.gle/ou8xsC5u43b46BJC9

Slots are not first come first serve, accepted orders will be contacted within a couple days. If you've previously submitted but were not accepted, please feel free to submit again.

Please note me if you have questions. Thanks!

Hey there! Been a bit since I posted one of these, so I figured I would again. I'm open to putting in a couple orders, so feel free to drop your information if you're open for commissions!

I'm mostly, but not exclusively, looking for art of this character at the moment: https://toyhou.se/8206658.barrett#26503785

I won't be able to get back to everyone based on previous journals, but I'm totally open to taking a look at everything given to me!

I'm most active on Twitter but here's a few other places to find me. Not leaving or anything, but yanno.

Main Twitter: https://twitter.com/routethirteen
Private/Social Twitter: https://twitter.com/teamtiefling
DeviantArt: https://www.deviantart.com/housekeys

And a few random sites I'm either trying out or updating sporadically:

Toyhouse: https://toyhou.se/Home
Tumblr: https://route-thirteen.tumblr.com/
Furrylife Online: https://furrylife.online/profile/6468-route13/

Hey again! Looking to fill some slots that have opened up, feel free to note me if you have questions.

Commission examples, info: http://www.routethirteen.net/person.....mmissions.html
Order form: https://forms.gle/nHrWU71nZefQiyeM8

Slots are not first come first serve, accepted orders will be contacted within a couple days.

I hate to make a journal like this but, all things considered, I'd like to be extra sure I have my list correct. If I owe you something, please check the trello below for your name.

https://trello.com/b/zDEriduh/r13-c.....issions-public

I have order details on a private trello, so this one is bare-bones.

If you're not listed, or if you want to update your order, please shoot me a note as soon as you can. Thank you!

But a hot minute since I made one of these, so I figured I'd combine 'em and make a general reminder.

Characters that are unsorted on my Toyhouse ( https://toyhou.se/Home/characters/folder:unsorted ) are always open for offers, though I might be more tentative with some than others. Those that can only be traded should be marked on their profiles, but apologies if it turns out I missed anyone.

Characters in the Mains or 'sonas folders would be hard to get ahold of but feel free to offer if there's one that super catches your eye, I don't really mind looking.

There's also a UFS/T folder ( https://toyhou.se/Home/characters/folder:173194 ) though it's running a bit bare lately.

Additionally I'm always interested in seeing the offerings of anyone currently open for commissions, so feel free to drop your info here. I won't be able to message everyone but even if I'm not able to get to you, others might! If you've posted your info before on journals like this of mine feel free to post again, too.

Hey all! I'm looking to get a commission or two ordered, so if you or a friend are open, feel free to leave a link to your info below so I can take a look!

If you've left your info on any of my previous journals like this, feel free to post again. No worries!

Hey! It's been a few months since my last update on this sort of thing, so here goes! I updated a few things and resorted my Toyhouse to make it easier to see what I'm willing to let go of.

Those in the UFS/UFT folder are easy to get: https://toyhou.se/Home/characters/folder:173194

Unsorted designs I'm actively looking at offers on, but may not always accept: https://toyhou.se/Home/characters/folder:unsorted

Characters in the Mains folder would be hard to get out of my hands but I don't mind if anyone wants to try offering on them: https://toyhou.se/Home/characters/folder:939528

Thanks!

Hey everyone! My current queue's nearly cleared so I'm opening a few slots for new orders. These orders will be completed by Christmas, with simpler orders likely going out faster than that. You can check out what I have available, prices, examples, etc. over here:

http://www.routethirteen.net/person.....mmissions.html

Please send me a note if interested!

If you're interested in something not on that list, or if you have general questions, feel free to note me and I'll see what I can do!

Hey again! Went ahead and sorted my Toyhouse, so it's easier to see which designs I might be willing to let go of and which are hard no's.

Anyone in unsorted I'm tentatively willing to let go of. Most can be sold OR traded:
https://toyhou.se/Home/characters/f.....nsorted?page=1

Anyone in UFT / UFS is easy to get:
https://toyhou.se/Home/characters/folder:173194

Comment or note with offers or interest!

Quick little update. I'm doing alright. 12th anniversary was yesterday so had a nice little day of it.

I'm kind of struggling on the creative front, and have talked to some of you, but I'm hoping to get through that and my queue in the next couple weeks. If anyone needs anything specific my inbox is always open.

Cheers.

Hey folks! I'm cleaning out some of my designs / adoptables. If that interests you you can take a look at my UFS/T folder over here:

https://toyhou.se/Home/characters/folder:173194

You're also welcome to go through my characters as a whole and make offers, just be aware I'm less likely to accept:

https://toyhou.se/Home/characters

For trades I'm willing to take premades and art of preexisting characters of mine. If offering premades, I trend towards things with demonic/tiefling motifs, and will not accept any closed species designs.

Hey everyone! I'm open for a few sketch slots, $15 (USD) uncolored and $25 colored for a single-character sfw fullbody. Quality examples: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/31504032/

Additional examples / info: http://www.routethirteen.net/sketches.html

Feel free to shoot me a note if interested or if you have questions!

And if commissions aren't in the cards for you right now, I'm also open for art trades for a bit longer! Over here: http://www.furaffinity.net/journal/9225290/

Hey all! I'd like to open for some art trades. I'm willing to do any style in my gallery, from sketches to scene paints and all that stuff in between.

If it helps, I'm usually most interested in getting something of these characters in trades: https://toyhou.se/Home/characters/tagged:1

If interested, leave me a comment with what you'd like to do and what you'd like in return! I'll pick some that interest me in the event of multiple offers.

Hello everyone! I'm looking to open a limited number of slots in my queue. This time around I'm offering sketches, portraits, and simple models. This is my first time trying out this kind of commission requesting, so if there are any issues let me know and I'll get them fixed up.

Info, examples, terms all over here: http://www.routethirteen.net/person.....mmissions.html

To request, please fill out this google form (please use the form unless you have a question!): https://forms.gle/1pfRBqyotjzBE5nU7

Note that not all requests will be filled, orders chosen to be filled will receive an email within a few days.

If you or a friend are open for commissions, toss some info sheets / examples my way! Comfort with human faces is a plus.

No guarantees on a response but I'll take a look at everything given to me. If you've previously commented on any posts of mine like this feel free to comment again!
