Commission for Victoria Aveline of her absolutely gorgeous character Sikthand, from her most recent 'Clecanian' series' book 'Ruling Sikthand'.
Loved working on this metal daddy! Details and close-ups below. 👹🤘
#clecanian

Main romantic interest of the latest book of the Clecanian series titled "Ruling Sikthand". Sikthand is sitting down on his throne, facing the viewer, he's holding a helmet shaped like a skull with antlers in one hand. He looks very stern and imposing. He's wearing metallic armour and a heavy armoured coat with an open front, baring his tattooed chest. The character has white hair, black geometric tattoos and most noticeable is the paint on his face that covers his forehead, eyes and tapers down to his lips, he also has a tail that is protected by armour. The characters is dramatically highlighted from above.

This is the same character as the previous illustration -Sikthand- except he's not wearing his heavy armoured coat. His broad shoulders and chest are bare and the tattoos across his torso are visible.

This is one of the reasons why I don't use Paypal (only when I have no choice). Their criteria to get people's accounts banned seem to be arbitrary, adding to their ginormous fees. Also, Paypal isn't a bank, NEVER leave money in the account, always transfer it to your own bank account.

This is a warning to every artists and clients using PayPal: Leave the note blank or send invoices. Apparently even saying "commission" makes them trigger happy. #SaveSpeech #StopPaypros

And continue the pressure by calling PayPal. Helpful link here: anti-censorship-campaign.carrd.co#phonescript

@MrQuessos: [quote tweeting @Inker_comics] If you are going to pay an artist via PayPal, please DO NOT include ANYTHING related to commission or nsfw in the payment description. Whether out of ignorance or innocence, you could screw up someone's job.

I don't think motivating people to move to other platforms to avoid the stupid censorship rules is a good solution. Quite the opposite. There is NO SAFE space for artists nowadays, if we don't fight back this will only get worse and worse

I’m not talking about the “AI “actress”” thing because it is so clearly an astroturfed non-story which only benefits from people taking it seriously, even as outrage / distaste. It does not exist. It *will* not exist, at least as executed by these people. I refuse to fall for it.

Dismissing an entire valid issue by saying we're "extra mad" seems extremely disingenuous, like he's not aware we've been protesting their new ToS and sending feedback to moderation like they fucking asked us to.

post by why.bsky.team:
Correction, I am not a "mod", and to be more specific it is non-consentual kink porn that's not allowed on our app, not all kink porn.
And good news, if you run your own app, you can post whatever you want. It won't be visible to users of our app if its against the rules, but other stuff will

post by zippyvtuber.bsky.social:
Errr...by non consensual you mean like deepfakes and the like, yeah? Not fiction?

post by why.bsky.team:
No, like depictions of non-consensual sex acts, even if fictional. The thing most people appear to be getting extra mad over is that we don't allow depictions of rape now
