Commission info
Introduction
My illustrations usually character(s) focused. Prefer drawing male relationship. Current style heavily emphasizes on line work and thick, slightly muted color. Work best on real or low fantasy setting, although I have no problem drawing something more.. fantasy, like from Final Fantasy.
Let's discuss, maybe your ideas and my style might be a good match?
