sidewaysI don't acquire commissions nearly as often as I could, mostly due to the Mortifying Ordeal of Deciding What You Want And Then Asking It Of Another Human Person. Horrendous! What if I just threw myself very dramatically onto a sword instead.
Fortunately I managed to get over myself long enough to commission an artist I've admired for a long time; though she mostly does Destiny work, it was her Pillars of Eternity art that inspired me, and I now have a gorgeous portrait of Neus :) One of the game's fun quirks is it allows you to upload custom portraits, so I no longer have to settle for the generic pre-builts and can instead enjoy all the fungal, sharp-toothed glory that once only lived inside my head. The downside is I am spending too much time staring at the character page.
I also just today 'purchased' an adorable little ficlet from dear Nem for the price of a donation to a raptor centre, as part of her 'Horizon Day of Service' - Shepard/Jack/Shiala in the same pocket universe as this fic. They are deeply weird and I love the way Nem packs in the xenobiology.
