Not sure how many people still follow this account, but would anyone here be interested in commissions? They'd be $60 USD for a full body, fully coloured shot - I'm open to drawing all kinds of things!

Thank you in advance! I cannot stress enough how much of a fan I was of Tales from Runescape.

Man, how are people even FINDING me on here, haha.

First of all - thank you! So weird hearing people referring to my old characters by name in this day and age.

I wish I had decent advice to give to you but honestly, back when I was making TFR I was a very young teenager using the most basic tools at my disposal, MS Paint and Windows Movie Maker. Even now I use the bare minimum when it comes to personal art, so I feel like I can't realistically dish out any worthy artistic advice.

The only thing I can say to you is if you want to create a webcomic just go for it. Try not to get too hung up on making it perfect from the get-go, you'll naturally pick up skills with time and effort as you go along. Use references for drawings (I usually just look up stock photos and copyright-free images for pose references) but don't fuss too much if your art doesn't look the way you want it to if you're just starting out. Just write whatever story it is that you want to tell and try not to get hung up on writing it for anyone else, or comparing it to anything else that's already out there (there's certainly WAY more competition online these days compared to the wee days of the internet in 2006).

Man, I'm always so surprised when people manage to find me on here under my real name and everything.
