Hellooooo all!


Sorry for the long hiatus— real life stuff, imposter syndrome, art-anxiety, that sort of thing lead to me just sort of sketching and posting on twitter, and I only wanted to put up finished work here. BUT then deviantart updated their interface, and I wanted to stay away even though I had finished content I could post.


Anyways, first of all, for those who are still waiting on their $5 sketch commission, do not fret: I am trying to get through those this week and the next. They are loooong overdue. I don't see myself opening up more commissions after I'm done though. SECOND my biggest thing I've been working on since the start of 2020 has been this nanite series— essential I've been infested with nanites, and it's changed me and my clothing as the year went on you can see all of that on my twitter (https://twitter.com/jakalovid) and i'll be slowly posting it up on here over the next few weeks. If you're wondering where I'll post the NEW nanite stuff, it'll be a combination of here, twitter, and PATREON. Yes, some of these new images will be exclusive to Patreon for a few months before they pop up here. BUT SPEAKING OF THAT. I have a Patreon now! If you want to see exclusive sketches, inked illustrations, vote in polls to influence what I draw, and even suggest what you want me to draw, check out https://Patreon.com/JakalOvid. It's going to be a lot of fun, and having this obligation is really what's stopping me from having my focus spring to other things, I'm trying hard not to let the TG stuff go on the back-burner in my life, and you can help with that! In conclusion, I'm back, sketch commissions, twitter, PATREON, thank you and goodnight. Twitter: https://twitter.com/jakalovid Patreon: https://patreon.com/JakalOvid

Some of you might have noticed more frequent activity today than in the past year. Life happened, got a job, been busy with that, but now I'm trying to finish all my old $5 sketch commissions so I don't feel terrible guilt whenever I draw for fun. 

And I've had a twitter for a while! Trying to be more active on that too. I'll be posting some more images, and just general sketches, on there moving forward. So if you want sneak previews of what I'm doing, check it out there! twitter.com/Jakalovid

Thanks to all those who commissioned me, I'll start working on those ASAP, and should hopefully have a bunch done by the weekend. But, with the problem closed and a bunch of sketch commissions on my plate, I'll be closing sketch commissions. BUT Writing Commissions are still open.

Hey hey hey folks— my bank account just hit the negatives due to some surprise expenses, so I need some small fast cash just so I can break even.

I'm taking commissions, specifically pin-up sketch commissions, and due to the circumstances of my situation I'm gonna ask for cash upfront— but I'll try and nail these out in the next week or so.

So this will be sketchy/rough line art versions of images like the watcher specials I do. Like this:

But in cleaned up sketch form.
$5 per pin-up/$5 per character if you want a before/after. If you want a full sequence, it's still $5 per step.

NOTES:
  • Payments will be made through Paypal
  • After I receive payment, I will make the sketch, then send it to you for improvement/ adjustments
  • If you want to be listed as Anonymous, let me know
  • There are somethings that I will not draw. I can/will refuse anything I'm uncomfortable with.
STEPS:
  1. Send me a note (Titled COMMISSIONS: *INSERT USERNAME HERE*) filled with a detailed description of what you want, character references, Paypal email address (so I can invoice you) and anything else important to the commission. 
  2. I will send you a Paypal invoice. Pay the invoice. Do it.
  3. Approve the sketch I send you
  4. Badabing badaboom—you've got a Jakal Commission.
ALSO
I'm trying out writing commissions. Dunno how exactly to go about it, so we're gonna say:
$10 per 1,000 words. You give me a limit that you're willing to go/spend, and I'll write out your story and refund what I don't use. Let me know if you're willing to go over, in which case it will still be $10 per 1,000 words (but only $5 per every 500 extra words.) If it's under 200 words extra, no charge. If it's between 500-700 extra words, it will not be $10, but still $5
What I'll need from you:
Character descriptions, setting, means of transformation (if you have a preference there), word limit, and anything else pertinent to the story.

NOTES:
  • Payments will be made through Paypal
  • After I receive payment, I will write a draft and send it to you for proof reading, revisions, and approval
  • If you want to be listed as Anonymous, let me know
  • I won't write smut (sex scenes). Weird, right?
STEPS:
  1. Send me a note (Titled COMMISSIONS: *INSERT USERNAME HERE*) filled with a detailed description of what you want, character descriptions, etc, Paypal email address (so I can invoice you) and anything else important to the commission. 
  2. I will send you a Paypal invoice. Pay the invoice. Do it.
  3. I will send the first draft for you to look over.
  4. I will send the second draft for you to look over.
  5. I will repeat steps 3 and 4 until we reach a final draft.
  6. Badabing badaboom—you've got a Jakal WRITTEN Commission.

Hello hello hello,
Been away for a while, but I might be getting back in the game. I've got an art trade to finish, a few comics in mind, short stories to write, entries to make, might be an interesting month.

SPEAKING OF ENTRIES here's a cool little contest that I'm (probably) going out for, check it out if you want to know what to expect/if you want to enter yourself! Be warned if you enter you will be an enemy of Jakal until it concludes.



Just kidding. (mostly.)
No seriously, I'm (mostly) kidding. (I sent a bird assassin at a judge once don't test me.)
I'd always encourage support artists to express themselves (unless they get in my way.)
You have nothing to worry about (except my army of birds.)

Cheers!
