#this is also why I don't do art trades or collabs :') there's too good a chance I'll just drop the ball on it and it stresses me out

Art Boundaries / FAQ

Figured I write something up quickly as reminder & for anyone previously unaware:

Fanart: ask me first please

Might seem odd, but I have some reservations on surprises out of the blue so I generally like to be asked first, I also have some characters that are more private. Mutuals as in, we follow each other, talk and therefore are familiar with one another do not need to ask cause you folks won't stress me out with that. (or you know, if you have access to the site were I keep all my characters and info stored that's a real good indicator too were you fall on that scale) Characters I submit during Artfight are obviously fair game for all during the duration of Artfight.

Nsfw art: only friends, conversation needed

I have specific boundaries and reservations here so I rather keep nsfw related stuff to people I know well and only after talking about it. And i really mean nsfw art; artistic nudity without bits does not count here, or pinups or something equally tame like nah I'm talking about really sexual stuff. (see and this is why convos are needed to clarify this more)

My sona Tangeris is off limits in general I might draw them like that but I do not want others to do so. Ever. My sona Phoenix has currenty one person that can draw her nsfw, that's it.

Art Trades: yes

If I'm open feel free to hit me up, I don't care about were you are in your artistic journey as long as I see you put effort in your part, that's all I'm asking.

Art Fight: yeah

Feel free to hit me up I always try to revenge and so far made it (almost) always on time. If I don't I will hit you up next year or do runner ups. As with the art trades I don't care which level just about visible effort put in.

Commissions: yes

I do them and buy them. I make announcements when I'm open (though I can always be asked about them) and hunt you down if you are and I have the cash.

Collabs: mutuals

Hit me up if you wanna do one xd

Gifts: u don't ask about those

I just throw them.

Raffles: when announced

Might do those once or twice a year if I have the time and space for it. Free for all to play along who can read rules and adhere to them. Base minimum is that these are for supporters not quick follow unfollow type of people or raffle accounts and yes, I do check these things.

Requests: when announced

I frequently offer opportunities for some free art - mostly if I need to warm up for bigger pieces or if i feel like drawing someone else or I am really into a new type/way of drawing (like my dual tones, or mono metallics) - don't be shy about asking, but only ask me when I offer, not out of the blue I am rather allergic about that.

If I made art for you:

I only upload fully watermarked files and if you wish to repost I expect you to use this web version.

You can have one with only my handprint logo on it though (without the additional wm's like the second name/date watermark & others) for private use, just ask.

I have two upload sizes, twitter and artfol get a smaller res, Tumblr and Furaffinity get the bigger versions - keep that in mind if you wanna save them from there.

Oh and if you loose the files due to hardware problems or whatever you can always ask me again for them I keep my files triple saved so bar higher intervention I should always have a copy at hand and if I still have the original I could always rescan the piece.

I am totally down for sending over orignals, as my art really comes across better irl and many details don't scann well, especially if I use metallics. If you want insured mail (which costs more than regular) I just kindly ask you to take over the costs.

That is all on the top of my head for now I pin this and might add revisions as needed if specific questions or whatever comes up.

✨WELCOME NEW FOLLOWERS!💖

This is my blog, or how can I put it.. WORLD!

Before entering my blog, you have to identify yourself that you will not ask me (kinda) “weird” questions, and also if you are not homophobic and racist. Anyone who comes here to my blog is very welcome! But also have respect for me and my posts..

This is me, creator of the blog and also creator of Mel-Loly, Marcos and Mel Creator (+ a lot more characters), and yeah I'm Brazilian so I don't have good English, and to resolve that, I sometimes use the translator. Above has some information about me, I will always be open for any kind of thing, like- if you want to talk to me or ask questions, I will always be ready to receive them! 🐝🌹

Also- I don't do art requests but art trades and collabs yes! So if anyone is interested, just read this list (and see if I can do what you want or not) and call me privately or ask! <3

⚠️ Important ⚠️: ↓

Normally my posts are scheduled, so if I don't respond at the time or a little before I posted, it's because I'll be sleeping (because my posts are scheduled to be posted at 8 am [that's Brasília time, that is, in Brazil, I don't know what time it will be in your country if it's not Brazil, but yeah-], so probably, as I said, I will be sleeping)👍

This blog is for all ages, however, I may sometimes make some content a little stronger or “nsfw/suggestive”, if you don’t like this type of content, filter the tag “tw suggestive” and “tw blood” (and also “tw vent”, because I sometimes make a lot of vents) or just ignore it! And if you are too bothered by the content (even if it is just a little), I suggest you leave the blog, so, you don't get bothered and neither do I get bothered by such a problem <3

I sometimes tend to “disappear” once or twice a month, I usually stay for two weeks or more, this happens for some personal reasons of mine and problems that I live with, and so as not to bring this to my blog, I avoid interacting or even posting anything as much as possible. Because I feel that sometimes it's better to step away, take care of myself, think better and put things in place, that's why I go a long time without posting.

Also, follow my other blogs..
