I'm Dave. I am a freelance artist and creator. I'm family guy from Eastern Europe . I'm self taught. Through the years I had many nicknames: Mavis Rooder - Dave Killjoy , and Dave Rooder.
However I'm aiming to come with another nickname this time : Wednesude - mostly because I used to post Frogs on Wednesday on some of the social medias. So guys - you can call me : Dave, or ... Dude.
I'm drawing characters from the popular niches as follows : games, comics and movies/anime. I mentioned that I'm a creator - that means I don't only do commissions (chec for details below), but I also create my own stories. By that I mean I create my own comic strips with my own ideas. Most of my ideas are based on the comedy and on my need to entertain and make you laugh, or at least chuckle. However, I'm not immune to failures, so sometimes not everything I depict would be funny as I originally planned.
I'm not going to apologize for that. I'll just go ahead and continue forward with the next idea.
Sometimes I'm recording the process of drawing the things I do and I post timelapses on my youtube channel : https://www.youtube.com/@Wednesdude, but I do crispy 2D animations using Krita.
You can check some of my stuff here on my Deviant Profile , or on my personal website : https://wednesdude.com/
I draw both Mainstream and NSFW. Don't be disappointed if I don't post only NSFW.
- Clip Studio Paint - main tool ; Krita - for animations
I do commissions - payment on Paypal only.
Prices - those shown on my personal website page : https://wednesdude.com/commission-prices/
Read carefully the list of things I'm avoiding to draw : https://wednesdude.com/list-of-donts/ - this will save both of us a lot of time and nerves.
note : I don't do animations as commissions. I don't do points commissions - Paypal only
MY WORK SCHEDULE:
From 1st to 5th - I'm working over gathering the requests of my top tier patrons on my patreon https://www.patreon.com/daverooder
Note : The top tier slots are already taken, but it won't harm if you check the tiers and see if any spot is left. But make sure your thing is not in my dont list /written in the link above/.
From 7th to 20th - I work on commissions.
From 20th until the end of the month - I work on my own comic stories and ideas.
I offer my lineart style .
Note : Around the end of 2024, I decided to "retire "my illustration style - something that guys would call semi-realistic or "realistic". For my own reasons I found that it takes a lot of time for me and it brings me no good.
If you feel like you want to support me here's the links :
Here on Deviant art I just found out that I can do subscriptions and people who like my stuff can support me the same way as they can do that on Patreon.
1. My NSFW Patreon : https://www.patreon.com/daverooder - there's different rewards, depending on what you wish to get. I do cheaper commissions for top tier patrons, so if you want - you can get a spot /if not taken already/. Before you should do that, make sure to read
the List of Donts :
Also keep in mind that I don't upload the content on my patreon - instead I make an HTML file , I zip it and upload it on dropbox or other location and I'm providing it to the e-mail address the supporters used to register on Patreon. The $10 tiers (and above) are able to get the previous month rewards /one issue per month/ plus the current's month content.
The $5 tier are getting the current month's reward.
2. Subscribe to my youtube channel : https://www.youtube.com/@Wednesdude
I draw popular characters from the : Comics, Games, Anime , Movies - my style.
For NSFW commissions : I prefer to draw VANILLA. That means : specific focus on romantic and sexual content that does not involve kinks, BDSM, or unusual practices.
I also draw NTR /netorare - meaning : cheating on the partner with whom the character is emotionally attached /
I draw Harem / meaning the male character has access to many attractive women/.
I do commissions. That means you are paying real money for my job. The following prices are for a NON-exclusive license - that means you don't own the final drawing, and none of these belong to you. You cannot re-sell any of these without my consent, while I, being the original creator, have all the rights to use the final artworks, sketches, and everything I'd do - to earn billions of cash or gain popularity. Important: I don't work for exposure or for free.
Sharing the commission I've done for you : You're free to share the drawing without asking me in any social platform and with credits to my name and website - that would be greatly appreciated.
Due to DA policy on showing explicit nsfw artworks - on which I'm not opposing or arguing, in fact I do support ,
I am moving my free-to-see-nsfw comics and samples on this location: ( these are free to see)

If you guys enjoy what I do, consider throwing some money on me - here on Deviant Art, by becoming a supporter, or
On my patreon.
Star Wars ; The Alien; Predator; Dungeons and Dragons (the Board games); Conan the Barbarian;
Fallout /games and ideas/; DC and Marvel comics. I love comedy and I often try to integrate humor in my drawings.
With that said - I'm into funny stuff.
Pricing :
1 popular character : $30 /per figure/face/half - price is the same
Paypal, or through DA
_________
Original characters , : $70 /per firure/face/half body - price is the same.
By default I'm not hyped of drawing original characters belonging to people : these make too few people happy and doesn't work well with my craft.
Joining my patreon campaign won't affect original characters price - and it still be $70
NOTE If you have Original Character that comes from :
1. Dungeons and Dragons /or a known board game/
2. Fallout, Kotor or similar popular game - then the price falls to $30 per figure
_________
For lower prices, join my patreon at : $20 tier /if there are spots/. The price is $10 per character.
Original characters and anthropomorphic characters. I'll draw these outside of my patreon campaign, and the price for these remains the same as mentioned on top whether or not you choose to be my patron or not. Due to their specific nature - these come with a higher price. My patreon: www.patreon.com/daverooder
Since I'm one guy only and depending on the workflow there might be a waiting list, which I will create - based on the interest of people.
Humans, Monsters , Anthropomorphic humanoids, NSFW, NTR, Harem, pinups.
*anthropomorphic – means an animal that has a human figure, legs, and hands with fingers. Very much human-like.
How to Commission me
1. Inquire on e-mail by sending a brief description of your thing :
2. If I agree to draw your idea , I'll give you my Discord name. Prepare a description and a reference photo of the pose and the characters. Once the rough sketch is fixed and approved from your side, I'll ask for the payment to come in full. Then I'll require some time to lay the colors on my own. Once I'm ready I'll send you the result directly on Discord for a check. We can do some minor tweaks - with expression, slight movement of limbs but nothing that would change the pose or concept completely.
There won't be money back in change of heart. Also - once you got the final file - please keep it safe, because I dont give guarantee of it's future existence .
3. HINT : If you want "better" prices you might want to check my PATREON account for free slots . (for now I offer that option to my Patreon supporters only)
By default I DO NOT draw requests of random people.
I'm kindly asking you to read my list of donts.
However I draw requests for top tier supporters at my patreon - why don't you check out for a free slot in there?
Please read the description carefully.
