Hi everyone!! I'm finally opening commissions!!

Here is the Google Form and Terms of Service for them.

Here are also examples of commissions I've finished so far.

Most questions can probably be answered by looking at the ToS, but if you have any questions at all don't be afraid to send me a DM!

I'm happy to announce that my Splatoon brushes (v.2) bundle for Krita is available for download!!! (rbs are appreciated<3)

This bundle includes new and reworked brushes (from the previous version), focused on imitating the official art style of the Splatoon series' artworks.

Here's a brief rundown of the brushes:

Download Link:

How to install them:

Download the .bundle file from the Google Drive link, and place it wherever you want on your computer

2. Open Krita and go to Settings > Manage Resource Libraries

3. On the Manage Resource Libraries window, click the Import button and select the .bundle file on the file explorer

4. Once you finish the last step, you should see the bundle is now on your Manage Resource Libraries window

5. Now, restart Krita and open a new file. The brushes should be on your Brush Presets docker!! (If you can't find them for whatever reason, just search "Splatoon" on the docker and the brushes should appear.)

"But Matcha, how good are they??" Well, that obviously depends on your drawing/painting skills and familiarity with the brushes, but here are some comparisons:

On both of these I traced the official artworks and tried my best to replicate the paintings, using only my brushes. You can decide if these are to your liking or not :p

Anyway, thank you for the attention and good luck making beautiful art <3

I've been seeing a lot of people doing the trend where you show how your art evolved through the year by showing an illustration you did in each month.

I think this trend is very cool, but I've seen many artists with "blank spaces" talking about how "unproductive" they were this year or trying to justify themselves...

It's ok. You're not a machine. Everyone has their own pace ^^

And so, I thought about something else I'd like to do instead of it! If you'd like, you can do it too!

Show and talk about the three pieces you did this year that you're the most proud of!

Here, I'll start:

Commission for @trenchcoatofthelord

I'm very proud of this piece because I think the pose and overall flow came out great! It was one of my best attempts to adapt the Splatoon Art Style™ to something I'm more comfortable with, and it was also my first commission ever!!

I'm very thankful to @trenchcoatofthelord for making my first commission experience be so pleasant and for being so understanding during the whole process, as I was still figuring out how to talk to clients and how to use Paypal lksajdfhaklh

2. Amiibo Inkling

This is one of the first Splatoon fanarts I did, and it's also the first illustration that people really liked here on Tumblr, which gave me a big boost of confidence by the start of the year!

Although I don't like the execution (style of it) anymore, it holds a special place in my heart (and nightmares) <3

3. Fanart of @fisheyezzz's Bocca Della Verita

This is a fanart I did of a fanfic written by @fisheyezzz, called Bocca Della Verita! Go read it, it's really good!!
