Hello everyone, my name's
Ruuka, both my real name and in-game name.
If this is TL;DR for you, feel free to
skip to SAMPLES > COMMISSIONS. I tend to write a lot.
I rarely post on Nexon Forums, but this will be my new corner for an art shop, heavily inspired by the many artists out there (such as Haiine's Little Art Shop - Cutest style I've ever seen!!). I stopped drawing
as an interest about 4-5 years ago (only for school and portfolio purposes - I'm planning to major fashion design or design alone), continued with graphic designing and later moved onto photography.
I've always wondered why I stopped drawing but realized it was because of the
lack of motivation (artist's block, pretty much). I finally found inspiration (not the guild, haha) recently, picked up my pencil and started drawing.
Do I have the talent? I hope the honest eyes of other people will be able to determine that :)
Constructive comments and opinions are greatly welcomed, but I do hope this thread can be flame-less. Thank you.
As much as I prefer realism art, my style of art is mostly very Manga-type since it's my forte; it's always what I've drawing. As you may notice below, my drawings are very girly, and some might notice my style is similar to Tanemura Arina's, an artist that I've always looked up to since 6+ years ago. Slowly, I think I've adapted to her style in most of my drawings.
Both female and male commissions are more than welcome, but I will say in advance that I'm more specialized in female drawings-- I apologize for the guys. It is definitely something I will put the effort to improve on, though!
From predicted oldest to latest (not exactly 100% in order)One of them is a Succubus :o

(I got my premium card, but where's the announcement?? :o)
My goal is to provide everyone, at the best of my potential, art that they truly appreciate. I personally like my arts too, because that is the first step in being a good artist. I'm also more of the type that draws on a blank sheet of paper by hand, scan it then see if any touch ups are required on the computer. Therefore,
I'm not very experienced with CGing, but you may still request for computer colored art if you trust my nooby abilities, haha :) If not, you can always take the lineart to someone else that is more experienced.

Prices are negotiable of course. Prices vary depending on the difficulty, complexity and specificationI usually do
half-body shots, but full body shot prices will vary
Couple shots are usually +50% of above prices because of complexity
I will post a rough sketch for the commissioner to decide or agree with pricing
The more specific you are, the higher the price. It will cost less if you believe on my judgment for poses and such
Must be on
Mari, UNLESS it's a confirmed art exchange. I apologize to Ruairi, Tarlach and Alexina players.
I have every right to refuse to your request. Usually the reasons would be:- Requesting Inappropriate content: nudity, [censored!] related or unpleasant content such as racism
- Yaoi or yuri content. I am not against same-[censored!] couples but I will not draw requests such as 2 boys kissing or licking each other.
PLEASE request one at a time and on this thread only.But I may answer questions on both thread and ingame. IGN: Ruuka
With that said, I'm only having
3 people max in Processing List (Working list)
Waiting List has a cap of 5. Feel free to order later if it's full.
^Reason why I'm doing this is because I feel overwhelmed when facing a possible huge list (which I've seen before), which makes me feel unmotivated as if I am not enjoying it.
Please understand that I put a lot of effort in my creations, so depending on your placement on the lists and your demands,
1~6 weeks is expected unless stated otherwise. (School - Exams/End of semester, Hiatuses - which I would probably have if I'm on vacation or too busy)
Lastly, </3 Nexon for no-editing in this forum. Excuse me for any typos <3
