Recently (or rather for nearly two months now) I've been struggling with various conditions and may have inadvertently affected my enjoyment of drawing as well. I haven't enjoyed drawing for a long time and my more recent pieces are just forced out just for the sake of it. I'm stopping for a bit so I can handle life in general.

Hello! Recently there's been an influx of request-ees so I decided to write down in a convenient location to throw out some guidelines instead of retyping it over and over again.

1) First of all, send me a note! Don't comment it on a deviation, PM me the details of your request! For example: [[Hello, are you taking requests? I would like (subject) if it's not too much trouble!]] Even if I decline the request, you can copy paste the details onto another artist that will take your request!

2) Details! I don't like to be "left alone in the sandbox" so to speak, I need some details and suggestions? Specific clothing, personality, location, scene, etc. I tend to entertain the request of the well thought out ones more than a "hey draw this please". I don't have much creativity. All the details you can manage!

I'm easily flustered when I am not given enough details to work around, please forgive my replies if they come off offensive. See 4).

3) Subject matter I won't touch:
    -No nudity
    -No depictions of sexual intercourse 
    -No furries
    -No anthro planes
    -No weird fetishes (I don't even know the names)
    -If the subject matter is deemed too difficult I will be forced to drop it
    -There's probably something I've missed but I'll expand this list as we go.

4) Keep in mind I am not being paid (unless you have indeed paid), as such, request tend to be less polished than personal works. I am spending free time for no reimbursement (once again, unless you have paid), please understand! :S If I am hostile to your request due to lack of detail keep in mind you are not respecting my free time by being vague and unspecific.

Sorry to be so harsh o/

Happy browsing!

As some of you may or may not know, I am currently enrolled in a degree program for games development. I am currently feel that this program is not suitable for me. I am miserable and irritable most of the time, and constantly dread going to classes. I struggle with the most basic aspects of each class, and to compound the issue I am no longer interested in the topics taught. I also no longer have any intentions or desire of joining the games industry due to a lack of passion. I am currently seriously considering either dropping out or putting it on hold for time being. 

As such, I do think that I've learnt some valuable skills such as basic fundamentals of drawing, basic digital painting, basic image manipulation, basic animation principles and basic 3D modelling. I thank my lecturers for teaching whatever I've learnt over the past 2 years.

If possible, I would like to start selling artwork to earn some money to support myself and reduce the strain on fellow family members. I suppose I'll have to open requests and commissions, I have currently no experience with this, tips and suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

Well, I just came back to DA after 3 years. I figured I'd upload some college stuff, and it got some nice feedback! So I thought, "Why not upload college assignments and some doodles to keep track of it?"
