Stuff I Will/Won't Draw List
5 years ago
I've never really had a formal will/won't draw list; for the most part I figured that people coming to me for art were familiar with Suburban Jungle and wanted something in the same mold. But as time has moved on and the practice of setting clear boundaries has evolved (for the better, IMO), I've started to get people asking for one. So... here it is! (Subject to change as time goes on, but what isn't?)
PLEASE DON'T ASK ME TO DRAW...
* Extreme violence. Action scenes and/or martial arts boppage is fine, and cartoonishly being squashed flat or turned into a living accordion are okay.
* Nonconsent, incest, underage. 'nuff said.
* Paw/foot fetish or tickling. I don't have any particular objection to it, it's just never been my thing... but for whatever reason I get a LOT of requests for it and I'd rather not at this point.
* Hyper anything, vein-bulging anything, super-exaggerated body dimensions.
PLEASE DO ASK ME TO DRAW...
* Zany hijinks
* Character portraits
* D&D/Pathfinder/FFXIV/RPG-based art
* Ponies, She-Ra characters, retro kitsch, fan art
* Turnarounds and expression sheets
* Wholesome queerness
* Wholesome straightness
* Cute guys, cute gals, cute nonbinary pals
* Silly fanservice
CHECK FIRST
* Explicit nudity (meaning, "visible naughty bits")
* Explicit sexual activity
I think that covers most of it? If there's more I'll edit the list. :)

Speaking of NSFW, I've often wondered, what about photographers for an adult magazine? What would be NSFW for them? Just wondering.
I mean, I had a giant crab attack a hotel, only to be scared off by a hot tub full of melted butter, that's pretty zany. ;)
