Proximasaur on Howrse (Au Version) and Animal Jam/Feral
You can also find me as Xentarri/Xentarrii where I may post adoptables.
I will NOT draw:
NSFW/18+:
Sexual Content / Fetish / Suggestive Content (poses/expression)
Explicit/Extreme gore (exceptions on mild to medium violence, blood, gore, etc. as I do not mind experimenting with horror but won't do anything over kill etc.)
Nipples (possible minor exceptions) / Genitalia / Major/full human nudity
Certain animals ocs:
Cows, sheep, goats, and similar farm animals (excluding horses, or fantasy hybrids)
Rats and mice
However, I am flexible here, and can openly discuss
Romance:
No kissing or intimate cuddles
I may make exceptions on hugs, and I am open to minor romance such as nuzzling, handholds, presenting flowers, etc. just no kisses.
Misc:
Maggots
Dobsonflies, stoneflies, and similar
I may decline certain body types on humanoids if I feel my skill level cannot match.
Anything that goes against site rules
I MAY draw:
Technically can draw but may be less skilled at, or content I may be uncertain with, (overall I am open to drawing them).
Robots:
I can attempt to draw mechanical parts, limbs, etc. providing their is clear reference, but I am more likely to pass on complex machines similar to those featured in Horizon Zero Dawn (I can attempt, but accuracy will falter).
Animals like:
I can technically draw but may falter slightly at (I just need references - I like a challenge and am highly likely happy to draw most of these).
Horses
Felines
Birds
Certain Insects (possible exceptions here)
Lizards
Fish and marine life
Anthros:
I can draw humanoids and ferals, I just might be a little rusty with anthros, but technically can draw in my own style.
Complex designs:
Please contact me prior to ordering a commission if you think your design is complex.
I enjoy taking on complex designs but there are some cases where I may have to decline.
Clothes and Armor:
I can and will draw clothes, armor accessories, etc. please note there are some corners where I may struggle, especially in rendered paintings where I may struggle with texture and folds (untested).
Gore and violence:
Please contact me first if you wish to add violent, bloody, and/or gorey, elements to your commission.
The same goes for gorey-looking horror beasts (excluding boney, skinny, spikey, sharp toothed), an example of something I would hesitate with is a Proxy from SOMA compared to The Flesher (who I could and have drawn).
I am okay with attempting to draw gore, and I am open to draw bones, cuts, blood, and similar, but some aspects I may either struggle with or not be up to.
I will NOT draw extreme gore/violence.
Original species:
Please provide links to the original species ref and traits sheets etc. and provide me basic info in regards to your character and their species.
Some original species rules may be too complex for me to comprehend and follow correctly where I may have to decline the commission, but this is unlikely.
Landscapes:
I often experiment with backgrounds, and will give landscapes and scenes a go providing they are not too complicated and outside of my skill set.
Note I will most likely struggle with buildings, architecture, and interiors as opposed to nature.
I CAN/WILL draw:
Creatures:
Dragons
Most monsters
Beasts
Aliens
Etc.
Ferals:
Wolves
Etc
Humanoids:
Humans
Human-like entities
Anything upright and bipedal with or without human features
Gods, demons, angels, elves,
Original designs:
Characters and creatures with unique features
Original species can be included here

Cases where I may refund:
Where I cannot complete the commission due to personal matters or not enough time
