Reblogging because I’ve gotten comments like this on my blog before. I’ve gone through and blocked all comments like this already.
It’s good to stay aware of these types of things.
I hope y'all are familiar with these in this day and age, especially my artists out there, because they're incredibly common.
About half an hour ago I posted a drawing and tagged it #artists on tumblr, and very quickly received this comment.
My scam radar went off immediately, due to the generic blog name and lack of any emotion in the comment, but I decided it might be an entertaining venture so I dmed them. They asked for a drawing "of these", and sent me a random selfie. I got the details and told them it would be $15, and they promptly offered me $300. At this point I know it's a scam, but I play along for funsies and give them my paypal. Shortly, they send me this image for "confirmation" (I blocked out my email)
And they began to insist that I checked my email. I looked in my spam folder and found the following email.
This is fake. This is not a thing. And the "you're to refund the $200.00 back" is the scam. They send vaguely official-looking emails at you to "prove" that they sent you the money, then have you send them $200 (or however much the scam is for). Then, surprise surprise, you're out $200.
I continued to play along for a bit, and in the second email "Paypal" told me that I had to refund the $200 before they could "credit the $300 to my account", along with these lovely threats.
And yeah, it's silly. But it's not silly if you don't know and get scammed. So. Spread, please! And thank you very much to @mlaurel for the opportunity to get these screenshots.
RE-BLOG THIS IF YOU ARE ASEXUAL AND PROUD ♠️💜
Go check out my story!
This was the second drawing of Jade I did... it only took 8 hours and 35 minutes.
I... don't blame my younger self for putting shadows over Jade's face... faces are hard to draw.
This is the first drawing of Jade I did. It only took 5 hours and 25 minutes. Better than over 8 and a half hours, I guess...

Also, OT and Jaime (Jammi? I dunno, the guy whose YouTube channel is called “Jammidodger”) spotted in the wild?! Hello, fellow fans!!

Colored her in!
The only difference is that the one on the right is at 175% zoom instead of only 100% zoom.
Thank you @chaos-sonic and everyone who got me to 10 reblogs!
I’ll make sure to check those out!
Thanks for getting me to 10 reblogs, btw!!

Have a great day/night!!
But I don’t know where to start. I have an Ao3 account now, but I’d like to hear some suggestions for fics to read!

Fandoms I’m in:
1. Sonic the Hedgehog
2. Marvel Cinematic Universe
3. Percy Jackson (it’s been a while since I’ve read the books, but whatever—I’d be up for reading some fic about Nico being happy with his boyfriend or getting closure with his sister or something)
…just had an idea for a fic I could write.
I need to get on that shit.

Anyway, if y’all have any suggestions, please let me know!
>(Imaginary bonus points if it’s a really niche, underrated fic! I wanna support other small artists and writers!)<

Sketches from Wednesday:
Here’s the full page:
Redrew my new design of Onyx.
Still working on getting my style down.
I decided to redesign Onyx after I made this ⬇️ and redrew her.
I was struggling to make the purple and black (or purple and really dark purple) work… and white (or really light purple) just seems to go a lot better with her.
…and I wanted to make them two sides of the same coin anyway: opposite, yet the same.
Eyes still look a little odd, but I’m getting better. And I’m so glad I figured out the shape of the quills (I was watching the Snapcube fandubs last night and got a good look at the shape of Shadow’s quills… soo… that helped).

Concept art ideas for two of the main characters in my story I’m starting to write again. I started writing it when I was 11 (during the pandemic) and recently rediscovered it.
Characters:
Luna Pearl (main character) [I drew her last and got lazy, lol. I’m not really good at drawing two eyes or hands yet…and I drew the hoodie after I drew her hands behind her back…😭] I’ll redraw her soon, I swear.
Rose Star (first acquired friend) [Had a lot more motivation with drawing her since I drew her first…]
If anybody is curious, I’m uploading my story to Wattpad. It’s called The Tales of a Mermaid Princess. My username is Radioactive_piano over there.
probably sucks ass, but I'm learning :]not open for commissionsI like drawing mushrooms, lolI'm writing several stories right now!!she/theyace (aego (?))🖤🩶🤍💜
