Feel free to join my commissions focused discord server! Where you get pinged for every opening, server exclusive commission slots, experimental art types, etc! Basically being in the server makes getting a slot more likely.
Every now and then I also send my updated to-do list in the channel so you know where your commission stands in the queue!
Plus, I'm always open to chat with members c:

Payment

Currently there are 4 ways I accept payment: Boosty, Hipolink, PayPal and Ko-FiBoosty and Hipolink currently do not accept payments using PayPal balance, but they do take credit and debit cards (including virtual PayPal debit card)
PayPal I'll provide you with an email to send money to (as goods & services)
Ko-Fi you can donate the required amount


I'm not taking complex background, reference or design commissions at the moment
â–¸ Prices are in USD
â–¸ Every commission type comes with a simple pattern/abstract/foggy background that you see in all of the examples
â–¸ Extra character is +100% to the price (of the type)
â–¸ Very complex designs may add a complexity fee to the price (discussed individually, mostly meant for extreme cases)
â–¸ If a type of art you're interested in is not listed here, feel free to ask about it!
Art examples are clickable and you can view them in full!
