I'm not super active on DA anymore and I'm not entirely sure I care too much about this account anymore either. So I'm considering doing 1 of 2 things...

1. (most likely outcome) I will make a new account under my most common username, cartelsaide, and start uploading there whenever I feel like sharing new arts on DA.  That account will the my main and this account will likely be left dormant, never to be touched again.

2. I pretty much do a major haul of all my currently uploaded work (except an extremely minimal select few) and either delete it all, reuploading old works to the scraps section of my old FA:
www.furaffinity.net/user/ashir…
or even less likely to it's own folder on this DA, using the fresh space as a fresh start.

Idk what exactly I'll do, but I may even go with option 3 where I just use this thing as a place to watch artists and rarely ever have any activity that isn't just watching or favoriting.  Lemme know if you have a preference~

~~~~~

Commissions cost anything between $3-$15+ bucks depending on complexity and details.
All commissions will be traditionally done. My currently available tools are standard 8x11 copy paper, scrap cardboard, or I have an absolutely massive roll of paper that stands about 4 feet high that I can cut at virtually any length I want. The mediums I have readily available are mechanical pencil, regular/standard pens, inking pens, markers, colored pencil, and crayons - all of which I have a variety of colors to work with.

Want an extra character? If it's a sketch, add $3 per extra character. If it's line art, add $5 per extra character. If it's colored, add $7 per extra character. Bust or full body doesn't change this fee.

If the price fluctuates any higher than $30 based on complexity and/or number of characters, I'll throw in an extra pencil sketch on copy paper - free of charge. If you buy two separate commissions, I'll throw in a third one 50% off. If you don't want the third commission right then/can't afford it, I'll save your info and offer you a discount on the next commission you buy from me whenever that may be.

I only take payment through PayPal. I need at least 1/2 the expected price before I can begin working on your piece(s), and full payment is expected before I give you your commission. Your piece will both be uploaded to my DA and/or FA gallery when it's finished and completely paid for. You may upload it to your own DA and/or FA too [just remember to credit me]! As long as you can pay shipping, I will even go so far as sending the hard copies to you. Unfortunately, I do not currently have a scanner [I'm photographing my work with my phone atm], but I will be 100% certain to scan everything in the moment I can afford to get one, and update you accordingly with high quality, scanned images of your commissions! To make up for this inconvenience, I will make note of everyone who buys from me and will give you a discount on the next commissions I open~ In the interim, I'm so so sooo sorry for any issues this causes, I really am!

Thank you so much to anyone who buys! It means a lot! <3 <3 <3 If you can't buy, sharing goes a long way too; please share this link with anyone you think may be willing and able to buy and/or happy to share as well! Thank you!

Contact Info

My most preferred method of contact right now is either FA or e-mail, but DA works too [it just might be slower].  My e-mail is cartelsaide@yahoo.com and if you e-mail me, be sure to make the subject of the e-mail COMMISSION in all caps, just like that, so that I don't mark you as spam.  Anyone who doesn't make the subject of their e-mail COMMISSION will immediately be ignored and deleted/spammed.

If you're contacting me through FA/DA, please use the PM [private message] system following the same instructions as above for the subject line.  Comments on journals and submissions will not be counted as legitimate, serious inquiries, and will be ignored.

I know I haven't really been doing much art lately, but that's partly because I've always been a mega slow worker, and partly because I have taken on a pretty big project for some lovelies on RPA - a role-play website I've been a part of for a good while now: www.role-player.net/ [CartelSaide is my username there]

This project is called Pokemon: The Change, a project I've taken on based on a RP I'm a part of under the same name.  Basically what I've been doing is taking the RP posts and revising+editing them all together in a cohesive order and story format.  There are a total of 17+ people that are a part of the RP, which has been going on now for just under a year and a half now, so you can only imagine how much work there is ahead of me!

It's a really awesome storyline, however, and totally worth the read.  Basically, it's about characters in a very dangerous version of the peaceful Pokemon world we've grown to know and love in the canon world.  What happened to make it that way was a huge light shined down from Mt. Silver and since then the world has been in a near post-apocalyptic state: Plants are practically all dead or dying, clean water is near impossible to find naturally occurring anymore, and the pokemon themselves are aggressively feral.  This event came to be known as "the Change" and without the help of the League, the occupation of Trainer has become a rather rare phenomenon.  The characters are looking to find out exactly what happened, why and how the Change occurred, and if there's anything they can do about it.

If you are interested in reading, you can read it on FanFiction.net.  Here's my page, in which you can find the story linked at the bottom [titled Pokemon: The Change]: www.fanfiction.net/~cartelsaid…

If you'd rather read the raw, RP-version for whatever reason, you can find that on RPA here: role-player.net/forum/showthre…

Eventually, we hope to have a dramatic reading/radio show-esque version of the story made as well, which you'll be able to view on my YT channel when we get that up and running: www.youtube.com/user/cartelsai…

P.S. You can also see Shaun and Meg [two characters in Pokemon: The change controlled by RPA users :iconjacogos: and P.K. respectively] drawn by the lovely :iconlexial-xiii: on DA.  Very well done!
SHAUN: lexial-xiii.deviantart.com/art…
MEG: lexial-xiii.deviantart.com/art…

Thanks to anyone and everyone who shows interest and support in this project!  It's much appreciated :D  Thanks for the time~
