I met a few years ago at MegaCon through my friend Lan.  He was beyond friendly and generally an awesome guy.  I got to spend a good amount of time talking with him and Kelly at NYCC of last year (2013) and even got a few wonderful pieces of original art from him.  I am truly saddened to hear of his sudden passing.  My heart and prayers go out to Kelly and the rest of his family.  The world has lost a talented and truly wonderful individual.

Update:  No longer looking.

I have been pretty out of it for a while.  I honestly haven't colored a thing in.....

wow.  It's been over a year.  Over 2 since I've actually posted anything.  I've got reasons and excuses, but a lot of it boils down to having lost the drive.  Not gonna lie.  I had some bad experiences and just lost the desire to do it.  I'd like to give it another go and see if I can get the spark back.  I'm not going to be taking commissions or requests, or trying to do any pro work.  I just want to do it for me.  That's why I started in the first place.

I still have no desire to do any flatting though.  SOOOO, I'm looking for a flatter.  Send me or link me to your samples and rates.  I won't have a need for crazy fast turn around times.  If I find a groove and get back into it, it may turn into some steady work.  This is paying work, I don't expect freebies.

I have a couple tablets that I'm looking to sell, I'm planning to finally upgrade to a Cintiq, and am hoping to help fund the purchase.

I have an Intuos 5 Touch Large available, asking $430 shipped.  I bought it new about a year ago, it is in very good working condition. Original box, pen and nibs included.

I also have an Intuos 3 6x11 available.  Asking $130 shipped for that.  Good working condition, but I haven't used it in well over a year.  Comes with original pen, but no box.  I might have extra nibs around, if I find them, I'll include them, but no promises.

Prices include USA shipping only.  I can ship internationally, but I will only ship FedEx, and it WILL be EXPENSIVE.  Let me know where you are and I'll get you a price.

Note or Email me if interested.

Unfortunately I am not available for any commission work at the moment.  Things are a bit busy for me right now so I have to put them on hold.  At the moment, I don't have an idea when I'll be taking them again, sorry.

And we're back!

Hello there, I thought I'd let everybody know I am once again open for commissions. Please contact my art rep Lan Pitts at oryonstar@gmail.com if interested!

I need to let you know that these are quick turn pieces, payment needs to be in after it's arranged and it'll be done within the week (two tops). So yes, payment up front, but I can guarantee a quick return.

The piece doesn't need to be inked as these are all digital pieces.
