Iiii still exit. Day job just kills my soul. I'm not even sure I have enough for another art submission explosion any time soon. Not that I can show here anyway. We'll see.

Hey all! If you follow me on Twitter, you may already know.. my main hard drive is super dead. Luckily no work/art was on that drive, but my computer is down. All the parts, including that drive and all my backup drives, are 7-10 years old if not more. I've torn apart, cleaned, and re-built a semi-functioning desktop from these same main components multiple times over during that time, but they are on their last leg.
So.. yeah. I'm in need of new parts.
That's what this post is for. My day job is done with its busy season, and I've got a 4 day weekend for Independence Day, with no plans, so..

I'm holding a "Nikki needs around $300 extra monies" sale on ATC/ACEO commissions!

$12 per card! Includes PayPal fees and the cost of postage (unless you live someplace crazy that costs more than $6 for basic letter mail. Then you'll have to chip in a bit more ;b).
(My normal rates are $15 per card or 2 for $25.)

I'm opening up 30 slots for art card commissions.
One card per slot, and you can get as many slots as your little heart desires.
Single character.

I'll also accept some other traditional work at this time, at regular prices.
$20 Detailed finished sketches.
$65 Fully colored marker/paint commissions.
Single character with no/simple background.
Add $5 for detailed background and each additional character. These will be worked on after the card slots.

PayPal only. You must submit payment before you're put on the list. Normally I'm more lenient on when payment is received.. but the goal here is to get a computer back up and running ASAP.
Most content is ok. If you've got some racy ideas, ask me. I'll politely let you know if it's something I'm comfortable with or not.

My entire long weekend will be spent working on these, and the plan is to finish as many as possible in that time, and any leftover within the month of July.
Full refunds can be requested at any time before your cards are started. After that, partial refunds based on work completed will be discussed.

Additionally, if you're interested in any of my cards already finished or partially started, as seen in the images here, they're up for grabs on sale as well.

$12 and I will finish any of these cards for you:

You guys realize it's about that time again, right? Right.

Once again! Have time for commissions. I will draw the things for you! Here's the details.
Other things I've been asked about:
$15 - digital colored small character bust for little forum icons/profiles and such. 500 pixels square, and a copy sized down smaller to whatever's needed.
$20 - Conbadges: Torso shot, larger than an ATC card. Add $5 shipping/laminating if traditional media. Digital badges, you receive a high quality file to print yourself.
$75/strip - Comic strips for your scripts (Like the Sunday funnies style, short comics around 1-6 panels per strip).
$100/page - Comic book pages for your scripts (includes pencils, inks, coloring, AND letters).
$100 - Dakimakura (double-sided custom body pillowcase. Cute/tame on one side, NSFW/naughty on the reverse.) Actual printed pillowcase, not just the art, is mailed to you.

I'm counting basic acrylic/watercolor paintings under the "Marker Colored" category.. including ACEO/ATCs if you wanna try something in paint. I don't get much call for it, so I've got no examples on hand, but I am confident in my painting abilities. I'm also up for custom character/creature sculptures, but that will take longer to produce. I've not done it in a while, and it's a time consuming process anyway. But, feel free to ask about project prices on that too. It'd be super fun for me to get back into that stuff. Heck, I also do chainmaille and beaded/wired jewelry and accessories, if you're into crazy things.

I will draw most content, but do have a few limits. I'll politely let you know if you get close to them with your request. I've not had to turn down any content yet, and am pretty flexible and open-minded, so if you're not sure, just ask.

Once I have your commission description, I'll respond with a final price total confirmation and any questions/answers. If the price sounds good, I accept PayPal to y2hecate[at]gmail.com (other methods of payment can be discussed if needed. Just ask). If you've got any questions about acceptable content, you want something not on the basic list, need to use a different form of payment, or just want to confirm details, email me anyway.

If you're wanting something for a specific date/event, LET ME KNOW first thing. That way I can try to put a rush on it, or let you know if I can/can't make the deadline, right from the start.

I'm not taking any "pre-orders" or spot holding. E-mail me and give descriptions/discuss/get quotes, but nothing gets on the queue/no work is started until after payment is received in full. If by chance,you want a special project that ends up costing a lot more than the base prices listed, I'll allow 50% payment deposit to start, 50% on completion. Refunds can be requested at any time - Full if I've not started work on it yet. If I've started, you'll get a partial refund based on how much work has been completed.

Note: $5 shipping on traditional pieces is for the USA. Outside of that, we've gotta check actual prices.

Hey! It's not a year between an update this time! Wooo!
Sadly.. not a lot of time for arts, with my day job going well. But there is some stuff. Moving didn't happen, due to sudden temp job turning into temp-to-hire. There's good and bad to that. No bigger city and creative art job for me just yet.. but I do like working where I'm at for now. Nice people. So yay! And stable work experience! Yay!
Now I just need to get my schedule straight, so I actually do some personal art when at home. Still doing a little.. but not as much as I want! Must DRAW ALL THE THINGS!
At the moment, I'm gonna warn ya.. if there's anyone opposed to the My Little Pony craze.. look away. I'm about to upload a little chunk of fanart from the show, and of some peoples' characters. It has become a small guilty pleasure of mine. :3
Not quite as big as previous art dumps.. but still. You've all been waaaaarned.
