hey guys! i’m opening some emergency commissions again bc i’m in a financial pinch. ;u; i have barely any money and i need to be able to buy art supplies and stuff for class. unfortunately i can’t hold a job during the school year because i really, really need to focus on my classes! so my only source of income are commissions. my anxiety is making it really hard for me to do day-to-day things and i just don’t really know what else to do.

right now i’m opening four different kinds of commissions, though we can discuss other styles if you want! please check the images for the prices, but here’s some more explanation about what i’m offering:

sketches: exactly what they sound like! sketches will be drawn traditionally and color, if you choose to get it, will be done digitally.

sketch pages: these are really fun! basically, you give me anything you want - a movie, a game, refs of your oc - and i’ll do either a half or full sheet of little fun sketches!

comics: these are my favorite thing to do. you can dictate exactly what you want each panel to look like and say, or you can just give me a vague theme, or anything in between!

full pieces: by this i just mean anything that’s nice and polished with full color and stuff! the price on a piece like this will vary a lot, so please let me know what you want and we’ll work out the price.

you can see more of my work on my art blog or the art tag of my main.

if you’d like a commission, please contact me at fallendire@gmail.com rather than via ask. i’m worried about tumblr eating messages! i only accept payment via paypal.

i’m a bit embarrassed to do this, but i’m also setting up a donate button on my blog. all donations are really, really appreciated and i will draw a small doodle for anyone who donates!

if you can’t get a commission or donate, signal boosts are appreciated! thank you in advance for helping me get through this rough patch.

OH GOD THANK YOU.

Oh my gosh YES. THIS IS MY BIGGEST PET PEEVE. just say no to painted on clothes, people.

Looking at my art, it looks like I do this but I actually don’t. I just don’t erase my underdrawings at all. LOL Accidental painted on clothing.

This is the variant cover I drew for LIBERATOR which was coloured by the amazing (so amazing) Rod Reis. I met Matt Miner in April at MoCCA and since then have become very familiar with his project Liberator, a comic book series about everyday heroes – animal rights activists.
I’m going to be honest here and say that up until a few months ago, I was pretty much done with comic books and the comic book industry. I was disappointed by the treatment of female characters in comics and women in the industry. I had lost most of my fight and had decided – I didn’t want to be a comic book artist anymore. It wasn’t worth the heartbreak and alienation.
Then along came Matt with Liberator to convince me otherwise.
I’ll stop myself here and direct you towards an interview with Matt and me on comicbookgrrrl.com where we talk about Liberator, how it came about and women in comics. Mostly Matt talks, I just kind of babble and get excited about stuff. I have to thank him again for letting me be part of something really great.
 I cannot come close to expressing how important this comic book is, how passionate the people behind it are and how much we need your help funding it. The Kickstarter went live earlier today, so please take a moment to consider backing this very worthwhile project. I had a pledge reward up but it has already been snapped up! There’s a ton more stuff though, make sure to have a look.

A note to all young artists.

And when I say “young,” I’m not talking about age - I mean developing. And ALL artists are developing, so … yeah, I’m talking to all of you.

There’s gonna come a point where you look at your own art and go, “Man, I am just not happy with this, but I don’t know why.” And you’re gonna look at other people’s art and go “Man, their art is so much better than mine, but I don’t know why.” 

I’m gonna tell you why the former is happening and why the latter is bullshit.

an artist’s self esteem is a very complicated thing

you have to think that you’re the shit just enough to keep on drawing
and then you have to hate yourself enough to constantly want to improve

it’s hard to maintain that balance man life is hard

#wow everything about this just hits the nail on its head
