Sel The Cat

I'm a full-time student and love working on storyboarding and 2D animation. (some favs being Wolf Walkers from Cartoon Saloon and Lego Monkie Kid from Flying Bark Studios).

My current main goal is to pay off my student loans, after that I can focus on my passion project!

May post about : Undertale, The Last of Us, Inscryption, Minecraft, Wings of Fire, Warriors Cats, etc..

Looking forward to discovering and learning from other artists :D

(note : 'sel the cat' is me and 'Sel' is one of my ocs for a project,)

I put "18+" and "mild NSFW" on my blog to be safe, as the stuff I make, while not usually graphic to that level, is more for adults.

(My passion project is currently planned to cover or touch on serious mental health topics, gore, body-horror stuff, and more.. so, there's also that.)

Any post I make that has NSFW, mature themes, or anything political will be labeled 'mature', so you only see it if you choose to. (I don't know how to do that with reblogs, so no promises there.)

Have a good day!

I found my new addiction

it's a game called "NecroChess" by Stopsignal, I found it on itch.io, It has consumed my past week. I don't know if the creator gave them a name so I'm going to call them 'Chess'.

I have yet to beat the game, but I've gotten the king to come out and fight a few times. Then I die. lol

here's the link to the game on itch.io : Auto Necrochess by Stopsignal

These are very useful for animation/illustration (and computers in general) as different computers can calibrate and show colors differently. (Anyone who knows more about computers and photography feel free to elaborate)

Working on some potential sticker designs! have some beta color variants, they are obviously not done yet, feedback is welcome!

I have a little free time and figured I should test out commissions! (for at least a month or so until college starts up again and I get banished to the animators' dungeon once more)

This is my first time taking commissions for payment, so the entire purpose of this is to run some tests, make sure the payment system works, and just get suggestions/feedback in general.

Details :

4 slots open

Through Ko-Fi for $1

Commission a very rough digital sketch of anything (as long as it's not copyrighted stuff)

(this is all just to make sure everything works, and even if the payment doesn't work you will get your commission for free as a thanks for helping me out)

Try using code "THXFORTESTING" or "https://ko-fi.com/selthecat/link/THXFORTESTING" get 50% off commissions (expires 07/30/2026). Please let me know if it works or not.

I will contact you once I've started your commission, but I do have a day-job, so it won't be immediate and may take up to 24 hours.

Note : Use this is the email to contact me with, it's also noted on the Kofi page. "[email protected]"

NOTE : Commissions will close again August 1st 2026.

Again, any feedback is helpful; on the sketch, kofi page setup, how to make the process easier (in any way) for you, etc.

Examples :

Apologies for being so late, there were a lot of delays and issues with setting up that I wasn't prepared for, but it should be good to go for testing out commissions. $1 commissions will open starting today

The major delay was due to paypal being a pain in the butt, so after a few weeks of trying to fix the issue, I'm just not going to be using paypal.

The commissions will be $1 (USD) 4-5 slots are currently available.

There is an option of using code "THXFORTESTING" or "https://ko-fi.com/selthecat/link/THXFORTESTING" to get 50% off commissions (expires 07/30/2026).

Please let me know if it works or not! When testing the discount myself, the code didn't seem to apply correctly, so I'd really appreciate some feedback. (This is part of the reason the test commissions are only $1)

WIP : Sel and Amia Prologue Animatic (Draft 1)

a very very rough draft, but I kept my promise!! an animatic.

Right now, it's more of a collection of ideas for the eventual prologue, but I'll be fleshing it out and polishing it in the coming months

Here's the log-line for my project Bringing Night : "A heartbroken thief tries to steal the soul of their friend back from death."

It's summer! College and work are kicking my ass a little less!

I'm currently planning open up $1 commissions on June 22 for sketches to test and make sure the payment system I have on Kofi is set up correctly. (currently still in the middle of set up)

I'm thinking of opening at least 3 slots. (Kofi is technically 'live' but not ready yet. (won't be until June 22))

This is my first time opening commissions or using Kofi, any advice would be appreciated!

edit : pushing it back a few due to technical issues..

working on a thing.
