Hello and Happy New Year to all my watchers, followers, and fans. I have had a bit of a rest after a very busy few months over Christmas, and hope you all similarly are feeling well-refreshed for the New Year.

For my fans on deviant Art, I’d like to thank you for sticking with me after what must have been months of inactivity, and then suddenly a deluge of images. I had slowly fallen into bad habits, and now plan to get back into a more consistent uploading across all my art platforms. I am looking into further expanding my gallery to other art platforms; if you know any that have extensions that can allow for a smooth transfer without having to upload every image individually, I would be very thankful if you could recommend any to me.

Last year’s 100 picture challenge, the Iron Artist, was a particular success, surpassing my initial expectations. Thanks to the commissions of the fans, I raised a significant amount of money, which will help me during this challenging time, whilst I am looking for new work. Hopefully, I should be hearing soon regarding a job I had an interview for some time before Christmas, and it will be good news. This shouldn’t affect my output, and I will still be open for commissions in the meantime.

Speaking of which, I have re-opened commissions, and plan to set some prices. Since each picture from the Iron Artist raised an average of £7.50, I think that would be an excellent base value to work with. Here is what I have planned out;

    ·         Standard face badges, just ones featuring your character’s face, will start from £6/€7/$8. For additional features such as the double sided skull, shadow, or perhaps your character eating some food, it will cost an extra £2/€3/$3

    ·         The simple full character badges, such as the gaming character badges and Pokemon Trainer badges, will start from £8/€9/$11. Additional Pokemon will cost an extra £1/€1/$1, unless they are very simple Pokemon, or from the same evolution line.

    ·         The complex character badges, such as the pirate themed badges, which include the skeleton of your character, or the new Overwatch badges, will start from £10/€11/$14. Additional features, such as non-standard skins for the Overwatch badges, will be an extra £3/€4/$4

    ·         Full body commissions, including a simple background and full shading, will start from £12/€14/$16. This does cover suggestive imagery, such as tasteful nudity, but not adult material. Additional characters cost and extra £6/€7/$8.

    ·         Adult images, including background and full shading, will start from £15/€17/$20. Additional characters cost £7/€8/$9. These may not be available for customers of deviant Art due to their upload policy regarding sexual imagery.

    ·         Reference sheets will be open to negotiation, based upon the imagery and poses.

*I know these prices are not exactly perfect conversions, since the rates vary continuously, and take conversion fees into account, since my native currency is GBP, hence why fees have been rounded up or down.*

Last year saw perhaps my most prolific year in sheer output since 2014, when I had the “By Lantern’s Light” project, and hopefully I plan to continue producing art. If you are interested in a commission, please do not hesitate to send me a message via this website, or reach out to my other contacts.

I am also considering setting up a Patreon page, so any advice for doing that would be most welcome, since I love drawing, and I would endeavour to reach more people who would like to see it.

Anyway, once again, Happy New Year!

Anyway, I have brought my art page up to date, working tirelessly to upload all the pictures that I had acquired since I stopped regularly updating here, and there were a lot! I sure hope you guys appreciate what I do for you.

Now, I'm going to make it a resolution of mine to keep all my art profiles roughly up to scratch which each other. Sorry to have dumped a load of stuff in your inbox.

Happy New Year!

A long hiatus

Hello. Sorry to have been so quiet on here. I've been very busy and, well, sometimes I forget to stop by here and meet all my admiring fans.

Anyway, I'm probably going to look into giving my deviantArt something of a major overhaul. When I get a quiet day, I'm going to try and upload a lot of my pictures here, just to bring my multiple art blogs up to roughly the same standard. Granted, I cannot upload everything, since some of my material is more mature, and I try to keep this site a little more clean. So if you're on my watch list and suddenly see about a hundred images from me, you'll know why.

I have decided to reopen commissions, and have made a proper rate sheet to list all my prices! These will be uploaded shortly.

In summary, here are my prices;

Full Body Commissions have four categories.
-Flat Colour are fully coloured, non shaded works, suitable for ref sheet poses or for cheap commissions. These start from £8 ($10)
-Shaded and Textured incorporate additional markings and textures. Starts from £12 ($16)
-Dynamic Action include far more complex poses, and more elaborate lighting effects. Starts from £15 ($19)
-Adult feature adult features, such as genitalia, or adult themes. Start from £12 ($16)

Badges have five categories.
-3/4 badges will feature a simply drawn character in a pose of your choice. These start from £8 ($10)
-Chibi badges featured characters with chibi proportions, or Animal Crossing style. These start from £7 ($9)
-Face badges simply feature a face. Starts from £6 ($8)
-Food badges feature your character chowing down on their favourite yummy stuff. These start from £7 ($9)
-Shadow and Skull badges feature your character, and can be flipped over to show their skull or their dark side. Starts from £7 ($9)

Of course, there are some rules as to what I will and will not draw;

I will draw;
-Cubs (provided it is non sexual)
-LGBTQ
-Adult activity (sex)
-Vore (this may cost extra, because it still technically counts as another character somewhere)
-Fat furs
-Licensed characters or elements (this may cost extra as well, due to the practise it takes to make the character resemble their official artwork)

I will NOT draw;
-Cub porn
-Scat or urine
-Material that dehumanises or is offensive to race, religion, gender, sexual identity, or ability.
-Adult material for minors (I have a policy of not drawing adult material for anyone below the age of 18)

Also, some important information regarding commissions;
-I will provide a quote once I get your message. I will only start work when you've paid (I've worked pro-bono before and I've grown a little tired of people running out on the bill).
-Once it is paid, I can give updates as and when requested, such as WIPs.
-I will send a line art for your approval. If I do not hear within 24 hours, I will assume you're okay with it and I will start the next phase.
-Once payment has been sent, and the work has reached a specific point, most likely the colouring stage, I will not be able to offer a refund. If you want me to make alterations, it is best to suggest them whilst still in the early stages.
-I will present to you the finished picture when it is finished for final approval. At this point, if you want any alterations, please state so immediately.
-I will submit the picture to my gallery within 24 hours of completion. If you don't wish for me to submit the picture, such as if it's a gift, please message me.
-You're more than welcome to share it in your gallery, when it is finished, provided you credit me as the artist (I've heard stories of commissioners refusing to credit the artist for their work; it may not seem like much, but it's like refusing to credit Alfred Hitchcock for Psycho - this piece of work that people love was made by someone, so their name should be on it).
-My signature will be on the picture when it's finished. This is not up for negotiation.

Lastly, a few notes regarding badges;
-I can offer discounts on badges if you're buying in bulk, such as buying one for yourself and one for a friend.
-I can offer discounts on badges if they're for specific conventions. If I am attending this convention, I can hand it to you in person, printed and laminated. I can give details as to which conventions qualify as per request.
-Postage is only available for UK and EU residents. P&P is subject to first class delivery rates.

Hope this clears everything up.

If you watch my page, you've probably seen some new Pokémon pictures being uploaded, including the selfie pictures and the Batchu Begins picture. Well, these designs are now available on Redbubble for purchase as stickers, t shirts, and laptop cases!

www.redbubble.com/people/giova…

They now join my expanding portfolio of pictures, which includes my Zootopia crossovers, Doctor Zoo, and the Best Pilots in Zootopia.

Please buy them, tell your friends to buy them, tell fans to buy them; basically, just send me lots of money!
