Questions for the creator? Reach out to them via email (here)!

If you have a very specific prompt and are not flexible, it's best to contact the creator before bidding, even if it fits within their listed parameters. If you are asking for a specific kink, always ask first.

Highest rating: M
Minimum Bid: $25
Audience: 18+ only
Special interests (what is this?): Aro/ace characters, F/F ships, Gen (no ship) or platonic works, Genderswap/genderbending, Poly ships, Rarepairs

Fanwork Details:
I tend to prefer single character portraits or pairings, so if you have something with an ensemble cast (over 4 characters) or a complex background in mind please talk it over with me first. Shippy art is welcome but nothing explicit please. Can also create cover art/scene dividers/illustrations for a particular scene or fic (yours or someone else's, with their permission).

Characters/pairings of interest:
GEN ART: Any character(s) from any of the fandoms I've posted fanworks for on AO3 (see my profile for a full list), with the exception of those in my DNW list.

SHIPPY ART: Particular preference for Merthur (Merlin), Buddie (911), McSpirk (Star Trek), 00Q (Bond), Wangxian (The Untamed), Iron Husbands or Stony (Avengers), but will also draw for other pairings in those fandoms provided they don't include one of those characters (e.g. I will draw Henren but not Buck/Tommy). Otherwise, I'm open to most types of ships (m/m, f/f, m/f, poly, rarepair etc.) provided they don't conflict with my DNWs. If in doubt, please ask!

OTHER: There are loads of fandoms I love that I have not yet created for, so if you have one in mind that isn't on my AO3, please reach out to see if it might be an option!

Subjects/theme/tropes of interest:
I particularly enjoy illustrating fanfics and/or creating shippy art, but am open to other prompts and ideas as well. Favourite subjects, themes and tropes include: fluff, hurt/comfort, angst with a happy ending, historical/period AUs, Western AUs, supernatural/fantasy AUs and magical realism.

Unwilling to address:
I will not draw reader inserts or OCs, actors or characters under 18, graphic violence/gore/body horror, major character death or terminal illness, pregnancy, incestuous romantic pairings (e.g. Holmes/Mycroft), romantic pairings with unequal power dynamics (e.g. Hawkeye/Radar), explicit sex scenes or kink. If you are interested in art for a fic that involves any of these elements, please check in with me first to discuss, even if they don't appear in the scene you want me to draw. I am also no longer creating for Good Omens, Dead Boy Detectives, BBC Sherlock or any of J K Rowling's works.

Other notes:
I usually need at least a basic idea of what you're looking for before I can get started. If you're not entirely sure what you want the art to look like, that's fine—I'm happy to brainstorm with you to decide on a specific scene or reference pose, or you can just give me a general prompt (e.g. domestic Merthur) and let me run wild.

If you do have something specific in mind, please feel free to share, but do be aware that there may be limitations as to what I feel able to draw. For fandoms not primarily based on visual media (e.g. Biggles), I'd love it if you could share a pic or fancast of the character(s) so that I can get a better idea of how you see them. For fandoms with multiple iterations (e.g. Star Trek), please let me know which version of the character(s) you would like me to use before I start.

Once we have the details sorted, I'm happy to keep you updated with WIP pics as I go or to surprise you with the finished piece once it's done—just let me know which you prefer!
