Artpacks update for 2022!
Added 2021-12-18 01:23:59 +0000 UTCJust a heads up, at the start of 2022 previous art folders access will be closed, so please make sure you have downloaded them before then!
I might also be stopping and removing gumroad uploads of previous packs, this is ONLY because of the rise of disgusting NFT theft that's been happening to artists. But if there is a way to limit it to patrons only, then i'll change it to that.

I don't want to talk about this anymore or any involvement, its not for me. I hope you'll respect that and leave it at that.

2021-12-20 05:15:18 +0000 UTCYou have to understand, it's important who's selling. Yes, someone can buy your stolen work from a no-name, but most likely for a small amount, you do not have to worry about it, you only lose potential profit, nothing more. He doesn't get the right to use your work, no more than just downloading it from the Internet. But if you yourself upload your work - there's a chance that it will be bought, then the money will go to you. Then there's no further manipulation - as a real-world object, they can be resold, and you'll get a percentage from each resale. They won't get the right to use your art in a game or on a website, for example, they only get the right to own a specific piece of your art as a real-life asset. At most what will happen - the owner will put it on his avatar or put it in some showcase as part of his portfolio. I wouldn't worry about that at all, and I certainly wouldn't hide my work to my own disadvantage.

2021-12-20 04:50:02 +0000 UTCWell, the same can be said about our economy as a whole :) It's just that it has already passed through stages of rapid development. I'm not trying to change your mind, I just want to say that it is impossible to fight it, you will not win, but most likely you will hurt your business, and in a little, while this hype will fall and NFT will become part of our everyday life, everything will be the same, only there will be less shitty people, as well as money. To sum it up: I mean it's easier to upload your own work than to hide it from thieving assholes. At least you have a chance to earn a few extra shekels instead of losing because you'll be less visible in the online space because of these worries. I really wish you all the best.

2021-12-20 04:41:51 +0000 UTCIf your trying to convince me nft are great its not happening. Don't get me wrong, i stay away from it because it is tempting for someone like me and im glad i did. I've seen zero good to do with it and just a bunch of shitty people stealing other peoples art and profiting off it, why would i want to be a part of something like that?

2021-12-20 04:23:49 +0000 UTCHey! First of all, I love your characters! I think you misunderstand NFT a little (I don’t make excuses for freaks who steal someone else’s art), just hiding will not give anything, because your art is already online and will be, hiding would only damage your business. If I were you, I would just upload them myself, there are eco-friendly platforms where the upload doesn't do more pollution than a tweet. I can explain how to do it correctly if you wish to. Think of it as an opportunity to cash out your experience, in this sense the situation is not much different from the sale of tradition painting. Collectors buy art and speculators, and money launderers, it have always been this way in the modern era. NFT technology itself is wonderful and the future belongs to it, it's just that when a new large market arises, vultures fly there, but they also fertilize the soil for future high-quality projects. For example, I am a game designer and NTF allows me to implement crazy projects for which I would never receive funding from classic investors, not because the projects are bad, but because they are too deep and non-standard for a typed market. For one of these projects, I wanted to hire / cooperate with you in the future, with your amazing female characters.
