Aliases: Panic, 0, "strengthy", Of Sharks and Men, Erick, Tefi or Steph
Pronouns: He/Him
Age: 25 as of February 2024? I keep forgetting to update it. I'll be 26 in July.
I'm a small-time sketch artist that specializes in quick, goofy caricaturations and suggestive pinups of chubby women, effeminate men and ugly bastards not entirely conventionally attractive characters. If you're looking for someone to draw your favourite 40+ year old, slobbish, balding man, you've come to the right place.
Some other old names ya might know me by: Squints/squintybarnowl ... did I use any other one? nah, don't think so.

Disclaimer

I am most well-known for doing alot of adult themed art, usually in the form of erotica. That being said, my work is not to be seen or distributed to minors. Please respect this.My content matter could be described as... mostly morally light grey. I will advise to be wary that you may be exposed to the following sensitive topics, and to avoid my work if such things may hurt or affect you in any negative way:

• Erotica involving multiple partners and the glorification of sex work. While it is a necessary industry for many, and an occupation I happily respect, I highly disencourage it as it is a very dangerous industry full of exploitation and abuse. The depictions of sex work in my work are merely idealized, utopian fantasies and do not depict the industry accurately at all.• Sexual depictions of more mature adults(ie. 45+) and potentially large age gap relationships between adults at least 19 years old. I just really like older people, they're much more charming by default.• Unrealistic body proportions and capabilities, mostly used as exaggeration or mere fantasy. This can be seen mostly in the weight distribution and elasticity of some parts in the form. In some cases, the term "body horror" may even apply. Speaking of horror, there are gonna be monsters often present, usually in the form of mutants, spectres or otherwise.• Content matter involving fictional characters that are a product of prejudiced or outdated views, don't have a shred of good in their heart or are troubled enough that interest in them alone is already considered a red flag. Unfortunately, these kinds of characters are often given specific character designs and smaller, less relevant traits to their importance that are very endearing to me and rare, if not unseen, in protagonists. Characters on this list can often be described as: cis or campy characters portrayed as homophobic/transphobic stereotypes used as cannon fodder for jokes about the LGBTQ+, heinous war criminals, serial killers, sexual offenders, sadists, sociopaths and psychopaths, etc...)• Situations where consent may be dubious (Ie. The implication of there not being a choice despite both or more participants very enthusiastically consenting, inanimate objects being anthropomophicized or otherworldly creatures without blatantly obvious sentience, consensual intoxication or chemical inbalancers, bondage, sudden or unexpected intimacy)•Relationships that are toxic, abusive and/or purely pragmatic in purpose, devoid of any sincere feelings or sympathy. Obviously I wouldn't wish such relationships on anyone in real life, but when you're working with true villains in the realm of fiction and you don't want to paint them as the good samaritan they never could be, it's bound to happen.• Mild levels of BDSM/sadomasochism. Nothing too harsh, just the occassional thing that will sting for a day or two and maybe leave a mark for a bit.

Commissions

I don't quite have a commission sheet yet but here is a link to my prices and availability:

Will Draw

SFW
• Humans, real or fictional
• Monsters or other ambiguous creatures, anthro/furry, stylized and/or cartoony
• Landscapes, to a certain extent. I can't guarantee it'll be my best work just yet and a complex one would be excruciatingly time consuming.
• Robots and Mecha, same deal as landscapes except depending on the panelling, circuitry or overall structure it could take either longer or shorter.
• Semi-realism is my default, but I offer attempts at realism. Just a warning that I might be a bit rough around the edges, it's been a hot half a decade.
NSFW
• Nudity
• Explicit sexual acts between fictional characters or self-insert between fictional characters.
• Light to moderate gore
• Body horror
• Horror content in general
• Dubious Consensual content, such as humiliation, mild intoxication or emotional modifiers, implied lack of options, etc.
• Things that are not inherently offensive but still too weird to show anyone at work, such as extremely specific scenarios that might even imply you have a kink for a completely non-sexual thing.

Won't Draw

SFW
• Extremely intricate landscapes or mecha. I just don't have the patience to sit there and paint an absurd amount of little rain droplets onto individual leaves in a picture of a whole rainforest, I'm sorry.
NSFW
• Explicit sexual acts between real life people, at least not unironically. Sometimes it's funny to draw a certain poopypants president and a spray tanned potato millionaire getting pegged together.
• Underage characters or characters that explicitly look underage. Short, petite characters, such as folks with dwarfism, fantasy species that are inherently smaller, or just naturally short characters are fine, so long as they show clear signs of physical and mental maturity. Please do not try to trick me into believing a fictional character is falsely of age mentally and physically, as that even poses a risk for me: said drawings of fictional characters are actually counted as CP and illegal here.
• Beastiality or beast-implied sexual situations. A good guide on what counts would be things you'd have to explicitly search up to know about (ex. The genital shapes of specific animal breeds or families, intense or unorthodox breeding practices, whether or not interspecies breeding between the subjects is a thing). And no, I will not draw just plain animals fucking, don't try to convince me it's for educational purposes.
• Clear non-consensual stuff. It doesn't bring up the nicest memories for me.


Other specifics are on this F-List (reminder: NSFW)

Payment Details

◇ How and When to Pay ◇
I take all my payments up front due to past experience with people trying to badger me for free art at a time restraint.
To set up payment, talk with me through a messaging service, particularly discord, telegram or fA, and send me the email address to which you have a paypal linked. Alternatively, you can directly transfer money to my bank using a privately disclosed email, however I wouldn't advise it for your own financial safety as it's technically not a receipt, making it harder for me to return.
◇ Partial Upfront Payments ◇
This is an easily available option, but only from people who are verified frequent commissioners of other artists or friends. I will perform a background check on you should you ask for this, especially as a first time contact or client.

FAQ

◇ What if the subject matter I want to ask for doesn't fit into any of the descriptions above?
Don't be afraid to ask, I won't bite too hard :)
◇ Are you willing to do art trades/requests?
Of course! However paid work takes priority, obviously, so I recommend you don't set any timers, I'll work on them when I'm next free.
