Hi! I’m Nik, and I draw my OCs a lot and ramble about things!

Listed below is information about commissions and how to support me.

Wanna see my art? Click the “media” tab on my profile!

Carrd: artofdata2048.carrd.co
Ko-Fi: ko-fi.com/A852R5K
Page 1 of commission directions. 1) Select the character type: Full Body ($35), Half Body ($55), Bust ($75) 2) Select the coloring style: line art (black and white; $25), flats (color, no shading; the most popular option; $35), Hard Shading (color with sharp shading; $45), Soft Shading (color, shading done with a more painterly style; the most time consuming option; $65). 3) Add the character style with the color style, and you have the estimated price. Additional characters are 50% of the base price; up to 3 characters. Backgrounds are either no background or a solid color/gradient. More complex backgrounds will need to be discussed, and will start at a base price of $50 to start. CHIBI STYLE commissions follow a similar pattern as the regular commission, but is only allowed in a full body. Additional chibis are $10 each. Rules: - no more than 3 characters at a time, unless previously discussed. - Please provide references, visual or written. Anything to help me best capture your character. - Ask about availability first before talking about the commission you’d like! I don’t really have a waitlist, but my ability to work is based on my real life job!! - once contact is made, I will either confirm or decline your commission. I will then discuss payment, and have you complete the COMMISSION AGREEMENT (contract), which will be emailed to you. This, as well as payment, will need to be completed before work begins. I WILL DRAW: most anything, especially OCs and player icons! I WON’T DRAW: realism, animal portraits, detailed mecha, NSFW content, political works. I WILL NOT: promote hate speech, homophobia, or anything remotely close. I will block you if you request an item of this nature. Payment: is through PayPal. You will pay everything up front, or 50% at the start 50% at the end. NO BITCOIN. Once all payment is received, you will receive a HD version of your commission. The last two segments discuss guarantees and other additional information. I aim to work with you every step of the way, so I will not proceed with anything without your approval. I DO NOT WORK WITH ANY AI. SHORTHAND VERSION THE ARTIST - The Artist (Nicole Sbalcio) retains all rights to the work produced unless otherwise negotiated. - The Artist reserves the right to decline or refuse service to a client for any reason. - The Artist may give advice, suggestions, or ideas so that the art/character(s) clearly conveys the client’s expectations and vision. - The Artist reserves the right to cancel a commission after two weeks of no communication between The Client.

I was going to do art, and then brain goes: maybe I'll put my "sounds like" / hypothetical VAs list for #theelementals into a note so I don't have to try and discern my own handwriting...

So if you're curious. This isn't all the characters in the whole story, but this is a good chunk.

Thank you for the share Veroro! 🥺🫶💕
A chibi illustration of my persona - a cream fox/dog kemonomimi with purple eyes and star motifs - posed with a chibi Umbreon, holding up an ultra ball with a big happy expression in a dainty pose. Umbreon gijinka - a young woman with short, choppy black hair and two big umbreon ears wearing a big black hoodie and looking distantly off to the right. #197 is written in the background. Illustration of my white-haired dog/fox kemonomimi persona. They have pale skin, purple eyes and yellow star markings under their eyes. They are wearing a crop-top style brown sweater with plaited sleeves, underneath that is a purple tank top tucked into high-waist blue shorts and on their legs they wear black stockings. Their gold earrings and outfit accessories are star and moon themed. They are posed seemingly floating in a space environment with one arm out to the side and slightly off screen and the other arm is bent, raised up and their hand is out holding a hovering yellow star that is passing by on it's way. Their facial expression is happy and focused on the star. The mood of this piece is cosy and happy feeling. 8 winter themed pixel arts, in order left to right, top to bottom: hot chocolate candle gingerbread cookie ice cube candy cane robin penguin xmas pudding

And now it is time for the villain of #someonetowatchoverme to be revealed! Meet Nazir. I drew a bust of him a few months ago, just because I was struggling to come up with an outfit design.

Nazir is pretentious, arrogant, and thinks way too highly of himself.

#ocs #theelementals
Illustration of a male character standing in front of a white and cool grey background. Nazir wears a predominantly cool grey outfit, reminiscent of the gear a spy or a cop would wear. His right arm is fully covered, while his left has just his shoulder and fingertips showing. He has midlength dark hair that fades into a tealish-green color. He has sharp, grey eyes. He grins menacingly at the viewer.

I have not only a death grip on my pen, but I press super hard and then worry about whether or not I’m going to break my screen… 😂

I’m also really bad about saving. And then CSP will be all “a lot of processing, be warned the app may crash,” and then I realize I haven’t even saved ONCE.

Women want one thing*, and it’s disgusting.

Side note: maybe for the holiday season, I should do 31 days of OCs, either doing festive things or just… being them. Probably the latter.

Hmm… 🤔

Today we play the game of: is this a cold, or am I actually allergic to cats and dogs.

(which would be really sad, but would also explain a lot.)

I haven’t actually done full character art for Nazir or Cain, so their palettes aren’t complete.

I do this so I don’t have to have a billion character profiles open on my iPad while I’m coloring. (There are so many more characters too, I just tried to make reoccurring ones) #someonetowatchoverme

"Don't always believe what you see and hear, until you've done your own research."

I was really excited to get this piece done ;;; another light practice with some "Aiko Lore".
