After a lot of thought, I've decided I'm going to be changing the way I do business after I get through my current commission list. I want to change the direction of my business and start building pre mades and selling that way instead of working on commission. Commission work is super stressful and it's seriously wearing on my health. Looking at my calendar, I'm currently losing about a quarter of every month for either sick or injury time. I'm tired of hurting all the time. I have doctors orders to either stop costuming altogether, or seriously change the way I'm going about doing things. I like the idea of being able to decide to quit for the evening when my body tells me that I've done enough. No more 14+ hour days trying to meet deadlines.
Costuming and creating are things that will always be in my life. I love it, and I'd never give it up. So, instead of stopping completely, I'm changing my business plan. I really hope this isn't a mistake. I know that there are artists out there that do really well for themselves by simply making what they want to make. They are happy. They're busy all the time, but able to take breaks if need be. I want to work that was as well. It needs to happen, and soon.
So I'm going to take some time to work on what I want to work on and make awesome things for people to buy...at my own pace. I'm not counting out the possibility of commissions entirely, but when I do take them they will be few and far between.
Thank you all for your understanding and continued support.

Beer camp!
As some of you know, Michael and I are home brewers. We're trying to take our brewing to the next level. Please take a moment to watch a silly video and give us a vote! There isn't a lot of time left in the competition (our video went up this morning), so I'm going to be spamming this everywhere. Please send us to beer camp!
I'm generally not the person to spam places, but I'm trying to gain as many votes as quickly as possible. Thanks for reading, and every vote counts!

Welcome!
Welcome to my DA Page. I'm unlikely to update this journal, but I will continue to add deviations over time. This gallery will mostly be photos of costume pieces, with the occasional art photograph, or an actual drawn 2D piece.

Now Open for June and July Commissions
The title says it all, I am now accepting new commissions to be completed in June and July of this year!
A lot is changing around here. I'm graduating, moving out, and getting married! I'll need the extra income, and I am really excited to begin building things once again.
I am going to be starting out carefully so as not to bog myself down. I will be accepting commissions in small batches. If you don't make it on the list this time around, please don't be discouraged. I will be accepting a few new projects each month. This will keep my list short, and your wait down to a couple of months at the longest.
Here is a gallery of some of
