About Me

Hello! I'm SerenDark.

She/Her | 20's | Demi bisexual, poly

➤ I really like character-focused illustrations and hope to improve at storytelling, backgrounds, and scenery! I aspire to depict gentle, tender, and raw emotional scenes, really embedding emotions into the moods of my work.
➤ I'm trying to get better at drawing the different themes I love, and I want to improve at depicting varied bodies and LGBTQIA+ content.

➤ My aesthetic tastes range from gritty otherworldly horror to whimsical fantasy or just plain cuteness! I adore magic, magical girls, misc. fantasy, tragedy, body horror, monsters, and thought-provoking or thoughtful stories. I like to cry.

➤ I really like videogames and anime/manga!
Some of my favorite games include: Soulsborne, Overwatch, Team Fortress 2, the Tales Of franchise, the Half-Life & Portal games (including Portal Stories: Mel and hlvrai), Transistor, Arknights, and Darkest Dungeon! I also love RPG Maker horror games like Ib, OFF, Misao, The Witch's House, Mad Father, and Angels of Death.Some of my favorite anime/manga series include: Madoka Magica & Magia Record, The Ancient Magus' Bride, Land of the Lustrous, Pandora Hearts, Dungeon Meshi, Witch Hat Atelier, Higurashi & Umineko, Cardcaptor Sakura, xxxHolic & Tsubasa: Reservoir Chronicle, and Tokyo Mew Mew! I have a big soft spot for RWBY.

➤ If you like my work and want to help support me + my household (my beloved partner, my metamour, and our 3 cats!), please consider commissioning or tossing a tip!

We're not in danger but money is tight and more would contribute greatly to mental health, cat caretaking, emergency savings, quality/enjoyment of life, and just more financial padding in general.

Merch

✿ To be announced: ? ✿

Once I feel comfortable enough, I'd like to open a shop and sell stickers!
However, that time may not be soon. I'll post on Twitter when there's updates.
Thank you for your patience. ^w^

My ideas for stickers are a whole lot of cute chibis!
I'd love to make some for Tokyo Mew Mew, Arknights, and other series I love.
But the main thing I really want to draw stickers for are Magia Record's cute outfits!

Commission Information

Commissions are: CLOSED (0 slots)

Status tracking: Trello

Please see VGen for chibi commissions

Terms of Service & Process

You agree to my terms of service and accept responsibility for it when you order a commission.

➤ Commissions are not first come first serve, slots are limited, and I do not automatically accept every application. I will personally choose what I want to work on and when. Please have patience.
➤ If your application is not accepted due to lack of slots but I do have interest in fulfilling your order, then I will add you to my waiting list and reach out to you the next time I have slots.

➤ I might take a while to complete a commission. Please be patient, I will get back to you when I can.
➤ Reach out to me for progress shots beyond the sketch stage.

➤ I retain the right to post WIPs and the finished illustrations on my social medias, personal websites, and the like.

  • Submit an application through my Google Form.
  • Submit more than one if you want multiple characters drawn but on separate canvases.
  • I will email back every application with my decision regarding the commission.
  • Accepted applications will receive an email from me containing any questions I might have, and I will verify the price with you.
  • When the rough sketch is ready, I will email it. Once approved, I will then confirm the price with you one more time and send the invoice + ask for payment.
  • Once your commission is finished, I will email you the completed image file(s).
  • Full payment must be sent after you approve the sketch. I will not continue working until payment is received.
  • Currently I only accept PayPal (USD) as the payment method. But you can choose to fulfill it through Ko-fi if you want. I will still send a Paypal invoice for my records.
  • Please keep in mind that an additional cost of $20-60 USD may be added depending on the complexity and details of your request.
  • You may use the artwork for any non commercial personal use (such as avatar, background, displayed on your profile, reposted to your profile, etc).
  • You are not allowed to profit off of the artwork or use it for any commercial purposes.
  • Do not claim my art as your own. Please credit me or link back to the original piece, when possible.
  • NFTs or anything involving blockchain technology or cryptocurrency are strictly forbidden.
  • In the case that you break any of the above, I immediately gain full ownership of the finished commissions from you and you will be blacklisted.
  • I reserve the right to drop a commission at any time. A full refund will be issued.
  • If I have not made it past the sketching phase yet, you may request a partial refund (80%).
  • Finished commissions and ones far in progress are non-refundable.

Will Draw

  • Tasteful / artistic nudity (only for 18+ characters)
  • Mild gore (i.e. blood, scar, bruises)
  • People with animal features (i.e. animal ears, tails)
  • Some animals (I'm inexperienced, but if you really want me to then send an application and I'll consider it. I'm open to cats, dogs, and other small critters, but anything else is shaky.)

Won't Draw

  • Real living people (unless they are yourself or people you personally know)
  • NSFW or extreme fetish art
  • Cyborg / Mecha (I'm inexperienced, but if you really want me to then I'll consider it.)
  • Furry (I'm inexperienced, but if you really want me to then I'll consider it.)
  • Offensive content / overly sensitive or overly dark themes (this primarily applies to things like bigotry and hatespeech, or intense gore. If you're concerned, we can talk about it.)
