** Please be aware that the examples shown may not fit perfectly (especially the full bodies) ㅠㅡㅠPrices for commissioned works including multiple characters will have the character with the biggest price as a base price, and other characters will be priced on the extract of their body shown. The first two additional characters will be 50% off and any additional characters will be 25% off. The order in which the discount applies is based on the size of the body extract. The order will be:

Interests:

K-pop:
Music in general has always been a big part of my life and a big influence for my art and since 2018/19 K-pop has only been growing as an influence and hobby.
My main groups are Loona, Twice, itzy and Weeekly. I have a big collection of kpop albums with at least 150+ albums in my possesion and collect photocards as well.
manga & webtoons
I've been reading manga since around 2012 and started reading webtoons since around 2016 and have been doing so daily ever since. As someone who loves art and literature the comic medium just hits home.
I love too many to name any titles, but my favorite genres are fantasy, romance, and isekai. However I read much more beside these.
games
When I am neither drawing nor reading (or busy with my studies ㅠ_ㅠ) I am probbably playing games. some of my favorite games currently are Genshin, Sims (Sims 2 is the best version yet) and Stardew Valley! Additionally I am always looking for new ones! If you like wholesome relaxing games dm for some recommendations!
