SkekLa

What's up everybody? I'm here for a humble request. My CORE membership will expire in a little more than 15 days, and I'm currently unable to afford a renewal.

If you enjoy my art and would like my page to remain free from ads and limitations, could you kindly donate some points so I can keep everything tidy and settled as always?

I hope I can reach the goal set on my point donation pool, but even if that were not possible, I will keep doing my best to create new art, commissions and sculpts to share with all of you.

To all who want to help, thanks in advance!

What's up everybody?

I'm here with a new point donation pool. I hope you won't mind this unconventional way to go about it: the Donation widget seems to be unaccessible to me (at least so via DA app) so I decided to make this little Journal to let you all know that I was starting up a new donation pool!

If you enjoy my artwork and can afford donating some points, you'd be of great help : I'm aiming to stay Core so my page can remain as Ad-free and easy to navigate as possible (with cleanly arranged sections and subfolders for each kind of art you might want to find here!) So, it really helps me a lot to get point donations in order to keep this page Core. Thanks, in advance, to all the awesome deviants who lend me a hand! ^^

Here's the link through which you can directly donate (you can also simply click on "give points" too! ^^ )

See you all very soon with new loose art, sculpts, Skeksis fanart, art proccess and art summary videos, and much more! ^^

Stay safe, have fun, and stay tuned! ^^

Hi there everybody!

I'm sending this up as a small heads up, hope I can type it in before this thing shuts down again: my old laptop (my only means to connect to DA) has been slowly kicking the bucket for a long time now...it's finally gotten to that stage where it'll repetitively go "blue screen of death" much more often than one can handle.

I'm still being able to connect for now, and will keep uploading everything I can whenever possible: I just wanted to let you all know that it's a possibility that I'll have to struggle to buy a new one -as my economic situation wouldn't allow that at the time- so...I might be off for some days randomly. If that happens, please don't worry: it's just the laptop failing on me!

I'll be seeing you all soon with hopefully better news and new uploads as soon as I can!

If this thing stops shutting down, I may even share a new upload today! ^^

I send you all some virtual hugs, people!

Stay safe, and stay tuned!

Hi there everyone! ^^ I'm still alive- sorry about the huge gaps of time I'm often taking between uploads: these wacky times are effecting us all, and I'm of course not an exception.

A quite severe lack of time and the urgent need to tackle a lot of homely issues have kept me a bit away from the drawing board

However, I'm back to drawing as much as I can manage right now, and will soon be around with some original art, and skeksis art as well (must complete that series of tutorials so I can recommence working at Asks and loose fanart!)

I've taken the necessary decission to make all Asks to come annonymous and somewhat amalgamate (many questions in store are rather similar or have the same themes, so I'll simply reply the theme/topic as one, that'd be kinder on my schedule otherwise I'd never really manage to keep up with them! ) I will resume to work at them as soon as time allows! ^^

For anyone interested in commissions: I'm open and eager to work! ^^ just let me know via Notes if there's anything I can draw and you'd want! You can check out my Terms of service, prices and commission examples here, at this folder of my gallery: https://www.deviantart.com/skekla/gallery/65963679/all-commissions

See you all soon, with new skeksis fanart, original art, and crafts!

I'm sending everyone out there best wishes! ^^ *and a big thanks for reading this thing through!*

See ya!

Hi there everybody! ^^

I’m here again (at long last!) to let you all know I’m still around and kicking!

I’m sorry about my recent absence, but my health played a bad one on me.

Luckily enough, my issue had nothing to do with the pandemic, but an immune lowdown caused a dormant virus in my system to spring up to life and mess me up (Shingles, the reprise-version of infantile chicken-pox)

I’m mostly fine by now, although the damn thing chose one of the worse places of all to show up: it took my trigeminal nerve, so the entire right half of my face, eye and eyebrow, plus my scalp were compromised. Summarising, it hurts a lot and was really not pretty to look at.

I needed to stay clear from screens of any kind in order to let my eye heal, as well as I got treated with antivirals and a med. compound which helped stop the nerve damage the thing was causing.: this is why I haven’t been around at all for the last weeks.

I missed D.A so much! And missed all of you guys ^^

By now, my face looks rather normal again, and the pain’s gone all in all; the only damage I sustained is minor, tho it sadly compromises my eyesight.

I will likely need to get glasses in order to work safely and see normally again, but for the moment, I’m just needing to use screens scarcely (no more than 2 to 3 hours a day) so to help my eye heal correctly. (Seeing suddenly fuzzy, glazed over and blurry is no fun for a drawing artist, indeed )

All this said, I’m more eager than ever to recommence drawing, and complete a lot of projects I was working on (from that tutorial series to the Asks, from random drawings to the Loyalty comic) and am determined to try my best to do some worthy art and be more active, since I don’t want to let this problem mess with m works in any way!

So...I’ll be around more, as much as I can from now on. Expect uploads as soon as humanely possible- and replies whenever I can muster! ^^

*If you took your time to read this thing entirely, thanks with all my heart! ^^ I’m happy to be back! ^^ *

See you guys around quite soon!

Best wishes to all of you!
