Moving Forward

Hello, we’re Faye, and we are once again opening commissions.

We take payment though invoices- upfront, we will not start working on the drawing until we receive said payment. Just DM us if you would like a commission, either here on @fvaleraye or on our discord. Any and all help is greatly appreciated, if you can’t afford a commission maybe consider reblogging and sharing this around. We also have a Patreon, if that’s more to your liking- $10 Patreons get a free fullbody, single character sketch request every month. (Equivalent to the $20 clean sketch/colorless fullbody option above)

Conner: 👁 💙 ☕️ 🧁 💭 💔 🌊 ☔️ 🧡 🐺 🍁 🌕 🚷 📓

y'all know the drill

👁️ - How do other people perceive this oc? How close do their first assumptions come to the truth?

people usually perceive Conner as an insensitive asshole, which... isn't unfair on a first meeting? he is a dick to people he doesn't know, and has zero filter or respect. to people he's closer with, he's just a bit too honest.

💙 - Describe their bedroom! Is it personalized, unchanged? Messy, neat?

his room is a bit of a mess, but in a "too busy to clean" way and not a "too lazy to clean" way. other than that, it's usually barebones- computer, bed, desk, dresser, shelves, etc. just the essentials.

☕ - What is their preferred beverage(s)?

mostly the same as Dove's, less often. he doesn't want to be a drunkard like his uncle

🧁 - When is their birthday? How do they celebrate it, if at all?

his birthday is June 10th, and he will insist on going out for dinner.

💭 - How is their mental health? Do they struggle with guilt or shame?

he very much seems like a go with the flow kind of guy, and he kind of is. stress has a habit of bouncing off of him, he has more important things to think about. communicating that stress when it does not bounce off of him is a bit more of a struggle

💔 - Does forgiveness come easily or with difficulty to this oc? Can they forgive others? What about themselves?

oh no, if you piss Conner off enough it's almost impossible to get him to forgive you. forgiving himself is a bit easier

🌊 - Does this oc have a secret or repressed desire?

not particularly- once you get to know him, he's very open about the things he wants

☔ - How does this oc feel about rain?

it makes him very grumpy- he's going to be complaining the entire time

🧡 - Physical touch: good or bad for this oc?

touch averse, but not quite to the extent of Lucille. he will tell you to piss off though

🐺 - How does this oc deal with solitude?

not well- he grew up with Dove his entire life, and he does not know what to do with himself when he's on his own

🍁 - What is this oc’s favorite season?

winter, because he hates the heat

🌕 - If this oc was an animal, what kind would they be?

unsure. probably something like a badger. unassuming looking, but dangerous

🚷 - Tell one difference between yourself and this oc!

we both tried out being nonbinary- but Conner decided he was fine being a guy, while we kept the label

"I'm fallin' into hell, and taking myself down with me."

A piece we did a little while ago of some OCs that we forgot to post. technically this is a redraw of an older piece, but we don't even remember if we posted it here. Either way.

If you like our art, consider getting a commission

So we've been playing FFXIV. We've been liking it a lot. Anyone who's seen us play an RPG will know that we usually make our first character just. Us. And play as we would, and then actually play a character on a repeat. This started as that, but we quickly started... actually thinking of things and she rapidly became her own character- also not a surprise if you know us adlfkjnasdf Anyway, this is F'Val, an aspiring Dragoon and forest girl who's only been adventurin' for like a week and is already fucking exhausted. She just wanted to make a name for herself slaying diremites and doing fetch quests and now there's all this shit about Primals and the Empire and shit. She needs a nap. The armor is obviously not rlly an in-game armor set...... it was like. Really late at night when we drew this and we didn't feel like drawing actual armor, we'll make a proper design for her when we get attached to an armor set. Regardless, we're happy with how it turned out.

Reblogs are appreciated and encouraged, etc

Wanted to revisit the design of a warforged druid we still want to use in a game one of these days... mixed feelings on the art itself, but we're happier with the design

it wouldn't be a new blog of ours if we didn't accidentally post something to it instead of our personal at least once

As the time we hopefully move out with a friend in the summer slowly approaches, we are. reminded that we do not have that much money to our name, so. We've set a new ko-fi goal of $500. This, combined with the money we've managed to hold on to should be a decently helpful amount when the move happens. More would be ideal, but we'll start at $500. We can't have that much more. Disability, SSI, etc. The goal is tracked on our ko-fi, you can find a link to it on our pinned post.

We will also be accepting ko-fi commissions for the first time. Any ko-fi donation that is equivalent to any of our commission tiers can be used as payment for a commission. You get ONE commission per payment, regardless of how much you spent or the tier of comm you request- any extra that is not spent on complexity charges, extra characters or backgrounds will be considered a tip. This is non-negotiable. You are encouraged to say that you are paying with intent for a commission when you donate, details can be discussed in private messages. You MUST request the commission either in private messages or the donation message on the same day of payment, or we will be very annoyed.

All that aside. We would appreciate the help. Or just spreading this around. Please help a trans woman escape texas with a small bundle of savings.

An adopt we got from @popfizzles... we still haven't thought of a name for her, but we liked her so much we had to draw her immediately after we got her. We just forgot to post it until now asflkjn

anyway. we're opening cheap ko-fi commissions for a bit, because we need money. anyone who donates at least $10 will get a clean fullbody sketch commission of one character. you may also pay more to have it upgraded, but you will need to actually meet the full price of whatever tier you want beyond clean sketch. check commissions for that. no backgrounds. no extra characters. no complex designs.

Decided to finally try to get around to designing a new fit. Wanted smth simple to contrast the new chassis details, but this feels almost too simple.... we don't know. We've always sucked at designing outfits asdflkjn
