Commissions are open again!! - 6x8” 1 char illustrations for $125 - 9x12” landscapes for $200 ($230 for 2 chars) - digital fullbody for $100 ($140 for 2 chars) You can view my terms and purchase a comm via ko-fi! And if you subscribe at the $5+ tier, you get 10% off! ko-fi.com/decaywave/co...

⚰️ DECAYWAVE 📡@decaywave· May 4

Fullbodies are one character only, inked and painted with a simple bg like a gradient or texture. Landscapes have up to two small pencil-drawn characters surrounded by nature, minimal or no manmade structures. Touch ups for both types will be done with colored pencils and gouache. (2/4)

⚰️ DECAYWAVE 📡@decaywave· May 4

I am now open for a watercolor commission test run! I am offering 6x8" fullbodies for $125 and 8x10" landscapes, 1 character for $180 and 2 for $200. I am taking inquiries via DM until tomorrow morning at 10 AM EST. Please read the full thread before DMing! (1/4)

⚰️ DECAYWAVE 📡@decaywave· Apr 28

I can ofc take some simple full body comms, probably in a 8x10” size as well, with a simple unlined background. Might be too much like my digital work, but I’d be mailing them. Thinking $125 at minimum but it would include shipping.

⚰️ DECAYWAVE 📡@decaywave· Apr 28

Postcards were a lot of fun but because they’re so small yet still detailed, and they still require proper shipping, I struggle to price them right. The cheaper alternative is to keep them in my sketchbook, like the third one, but the market for digital copies of physical art seems limited.

⚰️ DECAYWAVE 📡@decaywave· Apr 28

the character in landscape commissions would either be or 8x10” or 9x12”. These are some of my favorites though they’ll probably be in the $175+ range, especially if I go larger. Mailing would be included in the price.

⚰️ DECAYWAVE 📡@decaywave· Apr 28

I want to get back into watercolor and mixed media commissions, but I know the price will be significantly higher given materials and shipping. So I’m looking for input! 🧵 What kinds of pieces would you be interested in? Is there a market for smaller, less pricy pieces in my sketchbook?

⚰️ DECAYWAVE 📡@decaywave· Apr 1

Okay, my commissions are now open!! I have: - regular sketch illustrations, $90 for 1, $140 for 2 characters - half body sketches, $60, 1 character - mixed media sketchbook doodles, $45 for 1 character, $70 for 2 Read the 🧵 for more, closes at 7pm est April 2 forms.gle/dLZhY5eNkRuf...

Bogart is home safe!! While he is woozy and drooling, he is settled in. I'm going to try and nap soon so that between my bf and I someone can be watching him for 24 hours. Thank you to everyone who reached out or contributed to my ko-fi. I'm so relieved he is alive and your kindness kept me going.

⚰️ DECAYWAVE 📡@decaywave· Feb 13

Little man is getting his splenectomy right now. The vet said he's been an angel. I gave him my stuffed badger to keep him company, and the vet sent me this photo. Everyone who's reached out, you have my profound gratitude.

My 14-year-old cat Bogart went for his annual yesterday and they found a mass that could be cancerous. He's going back for an ultrasound to determine if he needs a splenectomy. Please keep him in your thoughts today, he's the sweetest kitty in the world and my best friend.

Here’s a few more drawings of him, including his Gigimon and BlackGabumon forms, with a very loose ref I made for a Secret Santa! I still haven’t totally decided on his Perfect or Ultimate levels. Featuring a few self portraits! I’m happy with the accuracy to real life. + a meme. Lock in.

A reference sheet for a Gigimon, Black Gabumon / BlackGabumon, and BlackGrowlmon / Black Growlmon / Growmon. Gigimon is a small rotund quadrupedal red dragon with bat wing ears. Gabumon is a bipedal light gray reptile with a yellow marking on its belly and black horn and claws wearing a black and white striped pelt. Growlmon is a large bipedal black dragon with red stripes and a white belly, large bladed forearms, long claws and horns, and a white mane. There is a height chart compared to a human.

A drawing of a human and Digimon partner pair. The human is pale and chubby with dark brown hair and stubble flecked with gray and silver earrings. They are wearing a purple tee shirt, red and black plaid flannel, and round black glasses. BlackGrowlmon is a large bipedal black dragon with red stripes and a white belly, large bladed forearms, long claws and horns, and a white mane. The human is smiling and Growlmon is frowning with a bead of sweat on his cheek.

A BlackGabumon / Black Gabumon sitting on a human’s lap. The human is pale and chubby with dark brown hair and stubble flecked with gray. They wear glasses, a green hoodie, and dark gray cargo pants. Gabumon is a bipedal light gray reptile with a yellow marking on its belly and black horn and claws wearing a black and white striped pelt. The human leans forward with their cheek on Gabumon’s horn and holds their torso. Gabumon rests their hands over their partners, looking up at them.

Final Digimon thread, some of my partner Digimon oc!! He’s not got a name yet but don’t let the intimidating scowl fool you - he’s a nice guy inside. This painting I’m posting on its own. I did it over the course of a week or so as a cooldown after commissions!

A digital painting of a BlackGrowlmon / Black Growlmon / Growmon, a bipedal black dragon with red stripes and white belly, large clawed forelimbs with blades coming from them, and a white mane. He stands with his back facing and head turned towards the viewer. He is glaring, snarling with smoke billowing from between his teeth. He stands in a dark, poorly-lit alleyway under the rays of an off-screen streetlight.

Second Digimon post, a pair of light study speedpaints!! Wolvermon from Beatbreak and Gigimon, my favorite baby. I’ve got one more Digimon post coming yet! #decaywaveart

Wolvermon, an anthro white and gray Mustelid with a black Zorro mask, black pants, and silver and red armored arms. Their back is to the viewer in a blue gridded background.

Gigimon, a tubby quadrupedal red dragon-like Digimon with a jagged mouth, black stripes under their eyes, and bat wing like ears. They have their mouth open in a nondescript light orange void with stark lighting.

⚰️ DECAYWAVE 📡@decaywave· Jan 13

Digimon fanart incoming! The new show is amazing and it’s reignited the special interest like nothing else. So I’ve got a lot of cooldown doodles of favorite designs facing left lol

HeavyMetaldramon, an edgy purple and black serpentine dragon with armored arms and chest, green hair, and wings shaped like guitars spewing blue flames.

Regulusmon, a bipedal black dragon with red and purple accents, gold claws and horns, tattered wings, and a blue wing shaped scarf. It is lacking the shield from its design.

Imperialdramon Dragon Mode, black variant, a quadrupedal black dragon with purple armor, gold claws and blades, red wings, and a cannon on its back.

⚰️ DECAYWAVE 📡@decaywave· Sep 6

Reigen was definitely the easy way out as a fox. Dimple just has a bird energy to him and was definitely made to my personal tastes lol. But Serizawa is directly based on this official plush they made a while back. He is too perfect I could not improve on this idea if I tried

A plush of Serizawa Katsuya from mob psycho 100 as a Bernese Mountain Dog. He has tan forelimbs and cheeks and darker hair in his head. He has a serious expression and wears an orange tie and button down collar

⚰️ DECAYWAVE 📡@decaywave· Sep 6

And the second part of my furry Mob Psycho 100 designs are fox Reigen, Bernese mountain dog Serizawa, and 👀 monster vulture Dimple!! So plus some headcanons for fun. These were harder but very rewarding. To see more art of them soon, check my fanart blog www.tumblr.com/cablecrusher #mp100 #furry

⚰️ DECAYWAVE 📡@decaywave· Sep 6

So my aforementioned design project was furry Mob Psycho 100, my favorite series of all time! First up are the main esper kids - Shigeo + Ritsu binturongs, marten Teru, and hedgehog Shou! If you wanna see more art of them, check out my new fanart blog here - www.tumblr.com/cablecrusher #mp100 #furry

A reference sheet for furry versions of the Kageyama siblings from Mob Psycho 100 as binturongs, with a fullbody facing forward, two headshots, a back view pelt, a palette, and pride flags. They are both wearing the white and red Salt Middle School gym uniforms. Mob is warm black with darker limbs and tail, limited markings, dark red eyes, and a floppy, rounded look. Ritsu is a dark blue-gray with lighter limbs and tail and heavily grizzled, spiky fur and dark gray eyes. Mob has the bisexual and nonbinary flags and Ritsu has the demiromantic and trans masc flags.

burn out & slip away First time doing vent art in a long time. Life has been so overwhelming these last few months, and I was holding a lot of feelings inside so I could keep myself moving. Trying to slow down and work through it now. #furry #furryart #decaywaveart #badger

A waist up digital drawing of an American badger furry on a dark background with their back and right half engulfed in flames. They stare at their upturned paws with an exhausted expression. Sparks fly up from the fire.

⚰️ DECAYWAVE 📡@decaywave· Feb 11

I drew this a couple nights ago. It was a weird but effective way to get out a lot of feelings I’ve had about being scared to create and take risks, partly because I’ve been setting the bar way too high Sometimes you just have to start small and simple! #furryart #furry #comic #badger #decaywaveart

Four panel grayscale comic titled “First Timer” featuring an anthro badger.

Panel 1: The badger looks down, wringing their paws and frowning nervously. They think, “Oh god, I have no idea how to draw a comic…What was I thinking?”

Panel 2: Badger looks left, sweaty and skittish. He scratches the back of one paw with the other.

Panel 3: Badger looks right, still apprehensive but calmer and more curious. His shoulders and brow have relaxed somewhat.

Panel4: Badger looks straight ahead at the viewer, a bewildered expression on their face and shoulders slumped. They say, “Wait. Is that all?”

⚰️ DECAYWAVE 📡@decaywave· Feb 6

I think it’s time to reopen commissions. Not ready to jump back into bigger things, so it’ll just be for simple digital fullbody sketches with minimal cleanup and loose colors. Not timed but likely in the 1.5-2.5 hour range, $55. If there’s interest I’ll take a few tomorrow.

⚰️ DECAYWAVE 📡@decaywave· Jan 24

Auuuggh it’ll be a bit before he has proper ref but I decided to throw this collection of sketches together while this is going around……

Happy new year everyone! sorry about the quiet, I’ve been working on a few personal projects. This one especially was very important to me - a reference for my bf @otterlysonny.bsky.social of his newest, truest fursona, Sonny the celestial-themed river otter!!
