Hello and welcome to my page! I go by Staarbits online, but feel free to address me via whatever is most comfortable for you, whether you know my actual name or are more familiar with those I've used in the past.I'm a freelance artist, exotic animal enthusiast (specifically where reptiles and amphibians are concerned), ARPG connoisseur, and avid Pokemon card collector of 20 years. My true passions, however, lie in psycology. I'm currently attending school as a psychology major in hopes that I can one day help people with the skill set I acquire in the process.As an unfortunate result of school and work, I don't have a lot of free time these days, but if you have any questions or just want to talk, please don't hesitate to reach out to me! I'm most actively available via discord, but you can also find me through any of the platforms listed below.

Commission Status: OPEN

Anything covered below is just the basics so you can get a general idea of what I offer as well as the associated prices. If there's something specific you want that isn't shown, don't hesitate to reach out to me! I'm more than willing to try my hand at other things such as icons, pixels, references, customs, etc. I can also do literature commissions for $5.00 per 250 words and I'm almost always ready to offer art in exchange for pokemon cards. More information on that can also be found below!

★ Ordering ★
By ordering a commission from me, you are agreeing to my Terms of Service. Please give them a quick look through before ordering. It's mostly just a bunch of basic stuff - I'm pretty lenient when it comes to what I will/won't do and what my art can/cannot be used for. To get an idea of wait times when it comes to ordering a commission from me, my art queue is publicly available and can be found here.

★ Payments ★
I take payments primarily in USD (through paypal only), but I'm also occasionally open to other forms of payment as well! As for what I'll typically accept as payment for commissions, I've compiled a small list below:
Deviantart points (100p per $1USD) || CLOSED
Neopoints (NPC only // 10,000NP per $1USD) || CLOSED
Pokemon cards (more info can be found here) || CLOSED

Whenever you're ready, feel free to reach out to me directly via Discord, Deviantart, etc. But if you're more comfortable filling out a form and waiting for me to reach out to you, I have a google form that you can fill out below. If you're looking to get more than one piece, please fill out the form once per commission.



★ Experimental ★
Price: $50.00 || $80.00 for character + background
Flat rate experimental images. Help me improve my artistic abilities by giving me new challenges! Give me a character to draw and I pick how to draw it. At a very minimum, the result will be a flatcolored sketch, but I'm primarily using this commission tier as an opportunity for improvement so I'll generally be trying new things (i.e. new line styles, new coloring styles, drawing more difficult subjects, etc. etc). Results may vary significantly from one piece to another.



★ Chibi ★
Price: $45.00 - $55.00
Standard simple-shaded and simplified chibi character images with transparent or single color backgrounds. Price is per character and varies based on the complexity of each character (up to a maximum of two characters per image). I can also offer lineart or flatcolored options for reduced prices. For chibis, I do not offer headshots or half-bodies, but I can do them in either regular cell-shaded or crayon color versions.



★ Non-Chibis ★
Price: $70.00 - $85.00
Standard shaded fullbody character images with transparent or single color backgrounds. Price is per character and varies based on the complexity of each character (up to a maximum of two characters per image). I can also offer lineart or flatcolored options for reduced prices. I can do headshots for a third of the total price or half-bodies for half the total price.



★ Full Scene ★
Price: $120.00+
Standard shaded fullbody character images plus a background. The base price covers a single character and a moderately detailed background. Additional characters and/or more complex scenes will incur higher costs. I do not offer headshots or lineart/flatcolored versions with this option, but I can provide half-bodies at half the base price.

Hello!! If you’re interested in offering pokemon cards in exchange for artwork from me, you’ve come to the right place! I’m an avid pokemon card collector and I have been for over 20 years now. I’m very interested in completing my collections and I’m more than willing to offer artwork in exchange for some of the cards I’m missing. I also have a list of my own personal cards available for sale and/or trade if anyone is interested in buying from/trading with me.But before we get into the lists of all the cards that I need (and likewise have available), I have some guidelines I want to cover. Please read through them before offering because if they are not adhered to, I will not accept any cards sent to me in exchange for art and they will instead be returned to the sender (at the sender’s expense).

★ I am interested in English cards only.
★ I'm only looking for cards that are in in mint condition. Please do not send me worn or damaged cards.
★ I accept card payments in the form of singles, booster packs, booster boxes, and/or bulk.
↪ For singles, booster packs, and booster boxes, I offer art based on the item's current market value (as shown on TCGPlayer).
↪ For bulk, I offer art based on a rate of $5 for 100 random cards (no energies), which is well above market value for bulk.
★ I will not start on artwork until the cards have arrived safely and I have likewise appraised their condition.
★ If cards do not adhere to the guidelines listed, I will return them at the sender’s expense.

As long as you’re aware of and comfortable with all the terms listed above, then feel free to reach out to me at any point (assuming I'm currently accepting Pokemon cards as payment, the status for which can be checked on the Commissions page)! You can see lists of everything I have available as well as everything I’m currently looking for via the links below.

** Just as a side note for extra clarification on the matter, “Needed Cards” are cards that I’m seeking in order to complete my own collection. “Available Cards” are cards that I have up for offer if anyone is interested in buying from or trading with me.*
Thanks for looking! ♥
