Commission Information
@gnrakel

Hello, and welcome! I'm mij, a digital artist specializing in character design. I use Krita for most of my art, and while I've only been using digital programs since 2019, I've been drawing for as long as I can remember.
You are welcome to contact me through any socials I have linked. However, please be aware that I am most active on Instagram, and may not see messages on other apps/websites.

You can choose whether I draw over the entire image, or leave parts of it (for example, leaving the background of the photo in).
Price begins at $5 and increases due to complexity.Silly Sketches: A small doodle of your character(s), most likely in a chibi and/or simplified style. It will come as one version with a solid color background, and another with a transparent background.
