If you're an artist and have posted your stuff on the net for a while, then you've inevitably encountered art theft at one point or another.

Online image upload sites such as Photobucket have been growing over the recent years, and sadly have also became a haven for the thieves to upload the stuff they steal from us.

Now, artists got together to do a petition to ask Photobucket to revise its services in hopes of helping prevent the upload of stolen art. (I'm at least hoping it would make it easier to sanction it when thieves steal stuff.)

Article here: [link]

Please sign the petition here: [link]

If you can also make a journal to help pass the message along and get more people to sign, it would enhance our chances of getting Photobucket to pay attention. ^^/


Onto other matters, I'm alive. XD
I haven't updated here in forever, because I've been extra busy lately, then got crushed by a major flu.

More recent examples in my gallery.
Feel free to ask if you have anything specific in mind.


Yaoi, yuri, hentai/porn, everything and any rating is accepted, (but the pornier ones will be sent by e-mail and not shown on DA, due to obvious reasons. You also have to be over 18 to commission that.)
The only thing I won't draw is hardcore guro, overly young loli and shota porn (discuss first in case it's not that young) and religious or political themes.

Fanart as well as OCs accepted. (Has to fit the line above, of course).


Payments accepted: PAYPAL ONLY.
All payments done by Paypal and paid in advance. (There's lots of people out there who run off without paying the artists. )
Once I've approved your commission, I give you my paypal address and you can send me the payment, then I start drawing. ^_^


Feel free to commission via comment, note or mail! ^__^/





Additional mini-FAQ:

Online games' gold NOT accepted. *lol*
Real money only, sorry but can't pay the bills otherwise. *lol*

Pics come with a basic background (see examples in my gallery), but if you need something a bit more elaborate, tell me and we can discuss a little add-on to the price if it's a lot more complicated, otherwise I might throw it in as free bonus.

Those are extremely low prices for illustrations anywhere in the world, so of course, it's only for personal use. (Or gimme royalties. *lol*)


I'll be taking as many commissions as I can fulfill in a timely manner (I hate making commissioners wait, so I don't take more than I can do soon).
So go ahead and either comment here or contact me via note or via e-mail.

If there's too many people interested, I can always set up a waiting list for those who arrived late, so don't hesitate to drop me a note or comment etc., even if it's just to ask if there's still room for your commission.
(People using email, please put "Gemini House" on the title so the mail goes through the spamguard.)

You can commission several slots at once if you want, no need to re-wait in line.

Feel free to ask if you have any other questions! ^__^//




Sorry if sometimes I take a while to reply to deviation comments or to thank you for watches/favorites etc.
Lately RL has been pretty crazy/busy, and I've been having very little time. I try to draw as much as I can in my free time, but then sometimes I can't manage to reply to all comments etc., and I try to catch up later. Sorry for delay in replying.

Thank you so so much for all your lovely comments, for all the favorites and the watches!
So often, I look at my pics and feel like my art is still so terribly far from where I would like it to be one day... So it always makes me very happy to see that people like my art anyway, and it gives me the will to go on posting more, and drawing as much as possible to improve and to keep making this gallery entertaining for you all! ヽ(゜∀゜ )ノ

got the 10,000 hits kiriban!


Next Kiriban is 50,000. Good luck! ヽ(゜∀゜ )ノ

If you get the 50,000th hit, please make sure to take a screencap of the screen and post the link to it in your comment.

If you get the kiriban, you get to request a picture from me. ヽ(゜-゜ )ノ
You can ask me for anything Saint Seiya, or for something general (example: "twin girls with green hair", or a "little girl with a cat-plushie", or whatever general request like that), or from another fandom, but then you have to point me to a link of the official artwork or something so that I can see how it looks like.

I'm sorry, but I don't do original characters for kiriban (well, I do mine if you ask me to just create whatever for the kiriban, but I don't do other people's OCs, sorry. )
Please commission if you want me to draw your OC. ^_^/
No complicated backgrounds for kiriban either, sorry.

Also, sorry but I don't take any requests related to guro/gore-sex, religious themes (positively or negatively represented), politics and other such themes that may hurt or offend.

Here are some of my friends and favorite artists.
Please get a look at their galleries! ヽ(゜∀゜ )ノ
I never cease to be delighted when I see their beautiful pictures!




And I'll be adding also recommendations for young artists that have lovely art that's getting better and better, and whose galleries I stalk regularly to see their lovely progression!




More to come. *building the list slowly, sorry*
