Since big requests are eating too much of my time to keep being completely free, I figured I'd just bite the bullet and switch on over to an art shop so I can keep my pets fed when I'm too busy to grind LG on here.
Everything here will be PWYW (no, not free) because my art style is trash super inconsistent and I have 0 idea how to price anything.
If you're after some kind of pixel art from me, I won't be doing anything custom in this thread at this time for lack of time's sake, but you can go badger me over here.
(Pst, and if you like what I do and want to pay or tip me in USD, my ko-fi is here.)
Things I'm decent at:
Humans/Humanoids
Anthros
Monsters/Aliens
Dragons (depends on complexity)
Sketches/Lineart/Flat Color
Lineless
Traditional
(need to get some new supplies, so I'll have this available later)
Animation
(We'll talk about this later, my tablet is broken and I'm currently restricted to my phone for art, so no animation is available right now.)
Things I'm weak at:
Heavily detailed shading
(Shading is my weak point in general since I really hate doing it, the more detailed you're after, the longer your comm will take. Just as a heads up)
Ferals
(including Sylesti, sorry! I'll still do them, but my grasp on animal anatomy is way shakier)
Buff/heavier body types
Mechas/robots (depends, I really like drawing them, shading metal is the oof)
Backgrounds, really in general
Things I won't draw at all:
Photorealism (just not my thing, I like cartoony things)
Multiple characters (takes too long, sorry!)
Self harm
Heavy gore (blood is fine)
Candy gore
NSFW
I don't have specific examples of my art because I play around with it a lot style wise, but you can find all my stuff in my DA heap.
Or here.
My normal, mixed shaded style looks like this though.
This is my usual, smooth shaded style with a palette-matching outline.
This is my flat color/sketch style.
And this is an example of my lineless work in AC style.

Status:
Closed indefinitely.
My dominant hand and eye are screwy from neurological issues. I have no plans of opening back up shop until I can get proper medical care to address this since it majorly affects my ability to do any art (and stay focused, really)
Covid making me want to scream ngl
Current:
1.

Queue:
Rules:
1. Don't rush me. I don't give set deadlines to things because both my health and free time thanks to college can be pretty erratic. I will try to get commissions done in at least 2-3 weeks max but sometimes life gets in the way. You are free to cancel at any point as I take payment at the end. I will provide a sketch for approval part way through once I've started your comm.
2. Ping me when submitting a form. If you don't ping me, I probably won't see your post.
3. Don't take credit for my art or otherwise edit it without permission. I will be signing it. Don't remove that either. I have a toyhou.se, so if you post anything up there, you can go ahead and credit to me, Xedite.
4. One commission at a time per person. If you'd like multiple pieces of art from me, you have to take another slot when they are free.
5. I may use your commission as an example of my art. If that makes you uncomfortable, let me know. I also usually don't keep local copies of art saved long term, so if you need copies, you are on your own to host them in a safe place.
6. I can refuse to draw something for whatever reason. There are times I really just don't think I can do a good job with a character or don't like the subject matter and would like to avoid embarrassing myself trying.
7. If you've read all these, give me some music suggestions under music on your form to keep me in good headspace and give me some idea for theme while I draw. :^)
Payment:
I'm mostly after gold for things, but won't be opposed to taking avatar items I don't have or diamonds as well.
All you need to do is accept the trade that I'll send you once I finish your commission and we agree on a price.

Gold is fine, I'm not interested in any projects at the moment until I can get some more stable space cleared out. I'm a bit backlogged art wise so I might take a bit to get around to getting this done. Is that ok?
Also do you have a preference on shading style? Cel, soft, or both?

Whew, actually got a sketch done pretty quickly since I've been having a rough day and definitely needed to get some vent art out. Had a really fun time with this character and it's probably the most detailed background I've done so far. The lineart won't stay black obviously, but just what I'm working with to give you some idea of the final. I'll probably be using a few different colors outline wise, but I'll be sure to be palette matching. :)
I'll be going with soft shading here also.
Let me know if there is anything you want changed.
