Hello! I hope everyone is doing well. I just have a couple of quick announcements.

First is I've opened up a Ko-fi account. This is just for tips and not a subscription service or anything so don't worry about any of my drawings being locked behind a paywall. I have no intentions to ever charge money for my art, outside of commission of course.

I know times are tough for just about everyone right now, so there is absolutely no obligation to do anything. However, if you like my work and want to show your appreciation by sending a buck or two my way, I won't say no.

Of course, please only donate what you are able, and keep in mind that you won't be given a reward or a free drawing or anything like that for contributing. All you will receive is my thanks and the knowledge that you're helping me out in a little way.

Here is the link to the Ko-fi: https://ko-fi.com/joyvell It will also be posted on my main page.

The other thing I wanted to mention is I've created a link to a Google form what I will be using as a sort of suggestion box. Even though I have so many ideas I want to turn into drawings, sometimes the best ideas I get are ones suggested by other people. I can't guarantee that I'll actually ever get to anything that is suggested, but if there's something submitted that I really like, I just might make it a priority. Feel free to submit as many ideas as you want. And if you want to be credited as the one who suggested an idea, be sure to include your username.

If you already submitted an idea back when I ran my giveaway earlier this year, don't worry, I've still got all of those suggestions saved so there's no need to resubmit them.

I know the Year of the Horse is coming up in 2026, so I have a feeling I'll probably be making at least a few centaur drawings during that time. If there's a character you want to see as a centaur, now would be a good time to submit your idea.

Here's the link to the suggestion form: https://forms.gle/7ozqUSnXSbRx8yxK7 Just like with the Ko-fi link, this one will also be posted on the front of my page for easy access.

Alright, I think that should be everything. Thanks again for your continued support! <3

Hello everyone, sorry for the delay. Last week when I posted the original announcement I forgot I was going to be at a gaming convention today so that messed things up a bit. But I’m here now and ready to announce the winner.

A few things first, though. I just want to quickly say thank you to everyone who participated in the giveaway and submitted a request. In the end I received 40 submissions across both Deviantart and Furaffinity which is just incredible, certainly a lot more than I was expecting. Every single suggestion was really fantastic and I really wish I could draw all of them, but this time at least, there can be only one, as they say.

Thank you so much for participating, and thank you all for believing that my terrible art is worth a follow/watch.

Just keep in mind, if your suggestion wasn’t picked today, please don’t take it personally, the selection process was totally random. First I created a list of everyone’s comments and numbered them 1-40. This list was not in any sort of order whatsoever, and everyone was listed randomly. Then, I used random.org to pick a number. After that, the randomly chosen number was matched to the corresponding number on the list.

I don’t want to make any promises but if your idea wasn’t picked today, there is still a chance that you might see it realized in some way or form at some point in the future. That’s all I’ll say about it now.

Anyway, on to what you’re really here for. The winner of the Poké-Monster Girl giveaway is: Somethingorwhatever from Furaffinity! Their suggestion was to see the Galar Mum as a Dracozolt satyr/taur. Congratulations!

I have to say, I’m really surprised by how many submissions asked for Dracozolt. If I’m honest, Dracozolt is not a Pokémon I’ve every really thought about, so I’ve never really considered the monster girl potential it might have. That said, I’m really looking forward to bringing this suggestion to life, and I hope you’ll all check it out once it’s done.

Thank you again, and congrats again to Somethingorwhatever!

Hello!

Just letting everyone know that the giveaway sign ups are now closed, thank you to everyone who participated. Unfortunately there's going to be a bit of a delay announcing the winner, but rest assured it will still happen today.

Just a quick reminder that I've got an art giveaway raffle going on now until this Saturday.

The response so far has exceeded my expectations with over 30 responses across both DA and FA so thank you to everyone who has submitted a request already.

If you have already submitted a request already I've got you recorded so you don't need to do anything. If you haven't submitted a request yet, don't worry, there's still time! Just head on over to this post here to see all of the details:

Hey ! Just recently I passed 1K Watchers here on DA, and I just wanted to give big thank you to everyone! I really appreciate it! I'm going to be doing something to celebrate the occasion soon, most likely an art giveaway, so keep an eye out for that some time next month. Thanks again!
