do u still post ososan fanart?

Sadly it's been a good long time since I've drawn or posted any ososan fan art anon-chan! I still love it a lot but I've been focusing more so on my work and personal projects! I've got plenty backlogged tho if you'd like to take a gander. I'm glad you found my art and are interested in it! Thanks for looking!

I would love to buy a print of your Junimo picture, but I don't see it for sale in your store. Do you ever sell prints?

Heya! Thank you so much for the interest, I do on occasion sell prints in my Redbubble, and I’d like to someday sell actual prints that I make and ship myself.

However for that Junimo drawing in particular I don’t plan on selling prints of it online--Most stardew valley stuff is heavily monitored on redbubble (or at least it was last time I checked!) and so I can’t post it without it just getting taken down again!

That and also I just don’t feel right selling prints of it. I’d rather folks support stardew directly by buying official merch! I know that’s somewhat unrelated in a lot of ways but it’s how I generally approach indie stuff! 

Thanks again for the interest!

Is there any big differences working on something like a comic for a company versus a commission for an artist?

Avatar

Yes! There are a few differences I’d say. Primarily in the formality of the process, as well as in regards to copyright and distribution.

At their core the concepts are the same, someone is hiring an artist to draw something, and that artist is not considered an employee of the person or company and therefore is not provided any of the benefits or scheduling that the company or employer may provide. But that’s where the similarities end I would say!

The differences are mostly found in the initiative of the artist.

When an artist is offering commissions they are typically the one offering a service that has it’s own terms and agreements. On the flips side, when artist works for a company drawing comics or illustrations, typically it is the company that is providing the terms and agreements usually in the form of a voucher or contract.

In essence when an artist offers commissions they set the rules. When a company hires an artist, the company sets the rules. 

It’s actually quite hard to explain and there are a lot of nuances I can’t really cover since I’m not the most fluent in legal jargon, but that’s how I like to think of it!

In addition to the 144 page book, chock full of everyone’s beautiful illustrations, comics, and wips, we also have a selection of holographic prints, acrylic charms, transparent stickers and enamel pins available for you to order! We even have the previous zine PDFs available in a couple bundles!

The main purpose of this fundraiser is to raise additional funding for our artists. Our goal is to raise an additional $50 CAD per page to each artist because our artists are worth it! This Kickstarter will also compensate for shipping everyone’s books via White Squirrel, paying for Kickstarter and credit card fees and finally, having a cushion fund in case things get a little more expensive than initially thought.

Thanks, everyone, for your continuous support and encouragement. Let’s make this a success!

Please considering supporting this incredible project! It’s all passion!!

Do you remember when you drew Emiliano and Elios in those royal masquerade outfits? What is that type of fashion called?

This was asked soooooo sooo long ago so I doubt this is still going to be useful to you specifically anon--but maybe someone else is curious or maybe this could be of help to someone else??

I assume you’re referring to these outfits?

The style I was inspired by is that of the Venice Carnival in, obviously, Italy! That was the prompt our GM gave us for these costumes.

My designs are clearly much simpler/not totally accurate to the style but that’s because they’re only loosely based on it! If you just search “Venice Carnival” Or “Venetian Carnival” you’ll get these results! 

(As I side note, I get soft when people refer to my OCs by name...Thank u for the soft feels anon.)

Do any of your non-team gijinkas have names? For instance, I like to imagine your detective Staraptor as "Sterling", as it's similar enough to Staraptor, sounds cool, fits well with a diamond/pearl/platinum theme, and creates a silver/gold contrast with his partner (who I currently have pegged as Vermeil?). Anyways sorry for gushing and making this awkward, I just love your designs and characters. And good work on TMNT!

fskdjnfd Thankyou for the kind words anon!! I’m always surprised when I get asks that seem to entail someone is keeping up with my work--I really appreciate it since I’ve been so spotty in my activity!!

As for names--You know--they don’t actually have any! I never really thought to name them for some reason--I guess I just assumed they’d be one off kind of drawings but well...We’ve discovered that’s just not the case!!! 

I quite like the idea of naming my Staraptor Gijinka Sterling....I think it’s appropriately regal and kind of classic for a regal classic guy. I’ll sanction that as canon! I’ll have to think of names for the others ones now...

I don’t like to ask for promos and all, though since it seems I’m still shadowbanned and I’ve been trying to ask Support about that (it doesn’t seem to be due to nsfw)…I guess this is the first time I’ll be asking for one in about the 5 years -san’s been here, out of that necessity to try and reach out and see who’s here.

So, if you know anyone that wants to follow blogs for season 3, hi. Can’t promise a lot of quality, but I’ll do what I can! And do you know any others that might be good to pass along news about?

Looking for some more blog recs if you got any, and reblogging this along to remind that for some reason I can’t get Support to help out much

That group sounds super cool! Is it something made for a single group, or is it like a system. I’ve been looking for something similar!

This is a laaaaaaaaate reply but the RP group I’m in is loosely (LOOSELY) based on the World Of Darkness Tabletop system! So we use a bunch of D10 dice to roll based on simple stats. But that’s about where the similarities end--aside from the dice and the stat sheets the setting and enemies are completely different, lol. 

 All the RP is done through text via discord and the rolls are also done via discord using bots!

I think that answers your question anon?? Either way it’s on hiatus so sadly no new members are being accepted, but I hope you can find a good group for yourself soon anon! Or maybe you can make your own?? Good luck!
