ð–¡¼ i do not allow people to reference my characters or designs! it makes me very uncomfortable. you may use my art for style or anatomy practice, but please be mindful about credit! i heavily prefer studies off my art are not posted publicly.

ð–¡¼ you may! please dm with a small blurb of what the concern is, i have anxiety and don't love the vague "hey i have a question" messages!
