[EDITED. PLEASE CHECK THIS OUT, THANK YOU ^^]

Welp. Hello world. I hope I can get any attention for this.

Purpose
A fundraising to support my study and hobby. I'm gonna repeat subjects and I have (very) expensive hobby (figures & merchandises collecting) so I need another decent support for those two mentioned above (another one is ofc a part-time job).

Offer
I'll be drawing one (1) character of your choice. Until shoulder. So, pretty much a portrait commission. Painting style is experimental.

Price
I'm using two (2) currencies (US Dollar & Japanese Yen) though I prioritize the latter. If you don't wanna pay with money, instead, you can take a look at my bookdepository wishlist and buy one (1) manga volume from there (or Amazon/Barnes & Noble/Kinokuniya/physical bookstores/etc.) which is also can be a form of payment. Brand-new manga volume only, not used ones.

10 USD OR 1200 JPY OR a manga volume

Payment
Paypal (Paypal fees will be covered by you) OR buying manga volumes from my wishlist (I will email you back with my address, please keep me updating about the parcel).

Samples
My art blog. There are more but I don't really bother to upload them.
(I am working on few samples here and there so please wait, I can guarantee that the samples will be much better than the ones in my art blog LOL)

If interested, email me at kimustache@yahoo.com with this format:

Subject: Portrait Commission

Name: [your name]
Reference(s): [Reference image(s) along with a small backstory about the said character. If you want to be very detailed about it, it's okay, just write away an essay-length of it, I don't really mind LMAO]
Form of payment: [Paypal / I'll buy XXX manga volume XX]
Note: [If any]

Example:

Subject: Portrait Commission

Name: KEME
References: 1.jpg, 2.jpg
A very tsundere ouji. He's a sensitive prick. If you can, please draw him looking cold with small blushes on his cheeks. PLEASE MAKE HIM LOOK SO TSUNDERE LEL.
Form of payment: I'll buy Barakamon manga volume 1.
Note: Just like I said in references.

Conditions

• One character only. If you want more than that, price is still the same and I can merge all of them if you want to.
  
• Anthros, furries, androids and just anything that doesn't resemble a human are not my forte. Kemonomimi (literally 'animal ears') are well welcomed.
  
• Please don't rush me and ask me about the commission frequently. That kind of thing doesn't really speed things up.
• My default size is always A4 350 DPI, if you want custom size, please include that too.
• My default format is always PNG. Please do let me know if you want it in other format.
  
• Bookdepository parcel can take a very long time to get to me (usually 2 weeks/3 weeks) + they ship the books individually. Consider this if you are willing to wait because I won't start the commission until I receive the manga volume. You may buy the manga volumes at other places too but the shipping fees won't be supported by me (Amazon seems to have killer shipping fees to ship to Malaysia ;; I can't really think of other sites that offer cheaper fees, so if you are near with bookstore, buy from there and ship it to me using your national courier service.)
• Plain background. Usually. I'm not an expert at detailed background. If simple ones, then maybe I can.
  
• You have to agree that you won't claim the finished product as yours. Well, the artwork is technically yours, yes, but please don't claim that it is made by yourself, etc. :/ You may do whatever you want with it as long you don't claim it is made by you.
  
• I will let you know if I'm gonna use the finished product for selling purpose. (meaning that I will print them as prints or sth). Well, you can decline if you don't want me to do that, anyway.
• !!For anyone reside in Malaysia, I have special offer for you guys so, PLEASE, if you're interested, email me beforehand!!
  
• Uhhhh any questions, shoot me an ask. I'll be more than glad to answer.
  

<sub>I was there at Animangaki 2014 for both days. Bet you didn't know, heh.

It's not like you guys know nor care... _(：3 」∠ )_

I'm at Twitter most of the time, no, I'm in front of my laptop, rolling around, watching animus, reading josei manga and sometimes manhwa, playing DRAMAtical Murder Re:connect, most of the time, sleeps. _(：3 」∠ )_

Anyway, time to talk about AMG2014!

Day 1
- Went with DearMarch , which was a last minute decision hahaha
- Met Charkoil ! She's awesome! I've been her fan ever since I saw her artworks at Kreko (Malaysian version of Weekly Shounen Jump, except it's a Biweekly release instead)
- Found Girls of the Wild's cosplayers!! Lee Moonyoung and Choi Daldal...only... where're Queen and Jaegu have gone to?? Elope? EH. ww
- Bought DRAMAtical Murder stuffs, felt a bit depressed knowing there were not enough Mink and Sei merchs ;;;
- Yowapeda charms too!!
- I SAW 1/7 MAX FACTORY DMMD AOBA FIGURE *YELLSSSSSS* wow omg I can't believe myself that I'll get that figure (prolly next year it'll arrive to me; since it's a December release *coughs*it's a rerelease so I won't get that qt Ren keychain OTL)
- Day 1 was so-so bc I was alone LOL (March had to leave early for his friend's birthday party) but nonetheless, it's a quite an experience to me bc that's like my first visit to Animangaki.

Day 2
- Met Natalie or ncem (twitter) !!
- She's quite a huntress hahaaha I usually just give quick glances to each booth (that's why I missed a lot of things......) but when I'm with her, I got to buy moreee DMMd & Yowapeda & Free! Rei stuffs! There're some stuffs I have to pass, even have to wait till Comic Fiesta to grab them (LOL I PROMISED TO A LOT OF ARTISTS FOR THIS HAHAHAHAHJSDHAKJ but really tho, my wallet cried a river already at that time)
- Made a commission to Dual Kiqtou (? I think?), I can't wait to see how Aoba & Sei turn out! (quite surprise to see DMMd sketches in a guy's sketchbook hahaahah)
- There was a quiz session at the stage area, I was about to pass until the MCs said it's for Gundam fans, and the question is about who's the pilot for Red Zaku a.k.a Red Comet (YOO THREE TIMES FASTER), being a Char FRIGGING Aznable fan, I can't hold myself to run to the stage and barged in (LORD I JUST WANNA DIE YOOOOOOOOOO) and answered the question bc other contestants couldn't answer it. And yes, I just got my first gunpla, it's a HG gunpla and shit I've never build a gunpla before....
- Went to stayxxx's autograph session, I feel so ugly besides her OTL
- Found Yowapeda (Manami, Makishima & Toudou) cosplayers *YELLLLLLSSS*
- Met a senpai from Uni. He's stunning as usual and I miss him （*/∇＼*）<3

I wore SAME cardigan for both days HAH! Blue tribal-striped cardigan. Jeans & Free! SAMEZUKA SC t-shirt for Day 1. Harem pants, BOY London black t-shirt and small ponytail for Day 2. I've promised to a lot of people to crossplay as Sei from DRAMAtical Murder and I'm planning to crossplay as Ninomiya Rui from GATCHAMAN Crowds at Comic Fiesta 2014 so, I hope you'll be able to meet me, or not...

That's all, I'm going to disappear again, meet you next year at deviantArt, or maybe on next life, idek.</sub>

I'll be going to Comic Fiesta 2013 woohoo \o/ but as a visitor. Anyway, expect to see a girl with neck-length black hair with bright red knee-length sweater, tight black pants and boots. Yes, I have to tell you guys specifically, just in case, lmao. Anyway, hoping to see real-life dA peeos \o/

be good, okay?

Meh, anyway, in case you're wondering, I'm actually half-active, more like I lurk than contributing something to community (lmao)

just hit me up and for sure I'll be replying

and yes, my inbox is terribly messed up..maybe I shouldn't join too much groups, so I partially do not know which one of you guys are still active

and yeah, art blog... I guess? pasteurizedchocolatemilk.tumbl…

Happy Ramadhan to all of you~

<sub>Hi! Hi! Hi! Hi! Hi! Hi! Hi! Hi! Hi! Hi! Hi! Hi! Hi! Hi! Hi!
Apparently, I decided to get active in here, and Tumblr a.k.a my art blog
my drawing skills are going down to drain so I need haaallppp
I'll be trying my best to post arts daily (not right now, assignments are killing me fffffff)
before this I was like everyone else, hoping for the number of faves and all but this time, I just want honest critiques
do let me know if you see some flaws around my arts, I need them to improve my skills
My skills are degrading, I swear! I just really hope I could go back to where I was so active at deviantArt and uploading arts to see whether I'm improved or not
If you ever want to do art trade or art request, do let me know, but it will take a while (I need to punch some lazy madafakas who keep pestering me to get lazier OTL and also internet connection may be the problem of the lateness OTL)

AND THANK YOU TO ALL WATCHERS //SOBS// I MEAN, MAAANG, I WAS MISSING LIEK AHKJDGJSGAFJKFHK BUT YOU GAISE STILL HAVEN'T CLICK THE UNWATCH BUTTON WHATEVER THAT IS OTL;; or you guys are planning to do it like tomorrow or the other day.... OTL
WHATEVERRR, THANK YOU SO MUCCCHH, YOU GAISE ARE LIKE ANGELS UGYUUUU</sub>
