Lost Vegas

Hi, I’m Lost. I draw sometimes. Jackass of all trades. Professional Skeleton. Door to door secondhand meat salesman.

Cisn’t [ They / He Pronouns ]

More active on Twitter at @l0st_vegas. My carrd is https://l0stvegas.carrd.co

Ayo I don’t advertise it too much (and likely won’t do so much in the future), but if y’all like my work (such as the fake captcha with the mutant deer I painted) and ever wanna help directly support me in making it, I do have a Ko-fi if anyone is kind enough to toss me a dollar or two.

I owed like almost $1,000 in taxes this year due to me being self-employed and it took a massive chunk out of savings I had allocated towards moving out of a bad living situation, so any way I can recover from the damage that did to my wallet is like a massive help.

My grandmother who lived with me recently passed on and money has been tight while we’re dealing with her final expenses.

I also caught covid around the same time and am unfortunately now dealing with long covid symptoms.

It’s by no means an emergency and I’m doing okay, but if anyone had a buck or two to spare while I’m emotionally and physically recovering from the grief and from post-covid cognitive+vascular problems, that’d be real cool of y’all and I’d be tremendously grateful. ✌️💀 ✨

Wow my dumb ass forgot to attach the ko fi link this whole time why did no one tell me

It’s down below. My bad, my brain’s been so scrambled I didn’t even notice lol

very specific transgender problem but do you ever find yourself really being drawn to a specific name and contemplate going by it…

…but that name is also your friend/mutual/etc’s name, and you’re worried you’ll look totally deranged if you just yoink it and steal it for yourself too

You would think this was an edit I made or something but no this is straight up an actual photo of that MSG Sphere arena here in Vegas (taken by jarredvanstone on Reddit)

I’m convinced at this point all my glowy geometric art has fundamentally broken reality and it’s starting to actually, phyiscally manifest

#also im sort of surprised this fucking thing doesnt somehow break light pollution laws #Buuuuut then again. yknow. Its vegas)

If cis people keep crying about being called cis, we could always just change it up to a new, less loaded term— perhaps Homogender.

Homo’s a prefix that means “the same” just like cis does. Surely they ought to be fine with that, right. Right

#sarcasm #This is sarcasm #i am joking.#lgbt #lgbtq #lgbtqia #transgender

Hopefully it’s chill that in the meanwhile until I bother making new art for this account again that I just post random weird shit I bump into on the internet lmao, I’ll try to keep it at least vaguely in the same general Brand as the rest of my internet presence

#new art is coming soon #im just not super happy with the quality of my work rn #i need to practice a bit and reevaluate my relationship with art/come up with better ideas

shoutout to this absolutely legendary opener i saw on some random dudes dating post on reddit

#This is an old pic but it gets me every damn time #i forget what sub this was from tragically i just incidentally bumped into it on the New posts feed

elyscape asked:

What are some song lyrics that’re stuck in your head?

l0stvegas answered:

Ah gosh my apologies for answering this late, but right now it’s this particular set of lyrics from Oh Sister by Neutral Milk Hotel. This whole song in general is very intensely stuck in my head and has been on and off for literal months (this song haunts me, lmao). I dunno why, they’re just really evocative to me

“And oh, sister, you’re getting married / To some angry twister that you’ll have to carry home drunk / Every evening from the cemetery / If he makes it back half-alive / You can bury him under your sheets”

If I had read this a few days ago when NMH briefly stopped overtaking my brain before resuming again, my answer would have been from the song Sarah by Alex G, mainly the line “We spit on all the happy plans that live around this sunny town”. I’m not really much of an Alex G listener but a couple of songs from that particular album really get to me

forever delighted by the universally understood agreement people on twitter have where they refer to the algorithm like an omnipotent being, like as if it were an ancient elder god they must continually try to appease with their little Post sacrifices

Offering $5 Ko-Fi doodle requests

Hey y’all, I want to buy some supplies for an art project I really wanna do and post the results of— I’ve finished all but a handful left of my sketch comms, so I figured I’d open up a few more commission slots to fund my harebrained, impulsive creative decisions.

These are PWYW, but $5 is the minimum. You can pay for them on Ko-fi via paypal or by debit/credit card directly.

$5 or more gets you a wee little doodle of almost whatever you want: Your fursona, your OC, your DnD character, some other fictional character, an animal, a random object, whatever. Go nuts within a 750 x 750 pixel limit but please try to keep it kind of simple. I’m open to most things but I’ll refund your request if for whatever reason it’s something I feel iffy about doing, or just ask you if there’s something else I can draw.

This is done according to a time limit— which you can select upon purchase if you desire, for an extra dollar. These time limits range within 1 to 10 minutes— the shorter the timer, the more chaotic and silly/bad the result.

Turnaround is very quick for these simple ones, as I do them as warmups prior to working on larger commissioned pieces

Do keep in mind:

These aren’t first come first served, I work in the order easiest for me depending on my energy levels and ability to focus. I also have chronic health problems that may pop up/flare and delay my progress unexpectedly— if it takes me too long I can either refund you myself or you can ask for one.
These are intended to be small very simple low-stress pieces, so please nothing too complex or detailed.
I won’t draw anything sexual, fetishy, bigoted or otherwise graphic/inappropriate. I’m open to drawing selfies but they’ll be very cartoony/stylized if so. I will only draw celebrities/musicians/public figures/youtubers/etc if I’m familiar with them.
Please leave me your tumblr @ when you submit your request in case I need to contact you about your request, and give me a basic description of what you want and include a ref if necessary. If it’s easier, you can drop me the ref in my askbox.
It’s not required, but I work better with visual references than without them or by only text description

These are still open! Help me out lol

I’m broke and running on like 3 or 4 hours of sleep I need some easy work to do that won’t hurt my brain

So the person who got it requested to remain anonymous (he gave me permission to post the pic), but someone got a tattoo based off my two monolith paintings I did some time ago— I’m absolutely stunned haha, I really did not think this would ever happen

The artist behind the piece is tolga.ink on instagram, who did a phenomenal job IMO! The piece isn’t in its final form as it’s still healing yet but even as is I really dig how it came out

You are my shadow self and now we must fight to the death for dominance. There can only be One

Anonymous asked:

Hello Lost, random question to pass time while you work on commissions, what's a comfort movie of yours? And also, what's your favorite color to use in your artwork?

Ooh, that’s a good question. I’m not a huge movie watcher, actually, but I do love putting on Coraline every now and then, that one’s a real cozy watch to me. I gotta watch movies more often tbh. I have a soft spot for nightmare before christmas too, which is such a cliche and slightly overrated choice but I’m biased towards halloweeny things as someone born in october

As for colors, I generally lean towards using any of the ones in the left pic— I use cyan and teal a hell of a lot in general though, I think that and grey are like my default ‘comfort colors’ I always immediately go to. They’re just easy on the eyes to me

lakeofclovers asked:

Stop being so apologetic; bump that ko-fi, boy!

Aye aye, captain 🫡

Bored and having trouble focusing on commission work (trying hard though)— anyone wanna send some asks to help entertain me lmao

People relentlessly keep telling me my red monolith painting looks like the start of a netflix ad for some reason and I swear to god they oughta pay me to do at least one promotional pic for them for all the unintentional advertising I’ve done for them

#not like netflix in general needs publicity at all outside of for specific shows #but still haha

so i put my hands up theyre playing my song the evil skull flies away
