Absence

1 min read
Hello. Yet another long absence from dA. A lot has been happening, I'm still finding it hard to cope with mental health, work, family and hobbies.
I'm still creating art and existing (just).
I'm trying my best to get new art finished and keep myself inspired. I'm usually more active and post sketches and stuff on Twitter, so any of my watchers still around can go follow me at twitter.com/malchion.
Thank you for taking the time to read (if you have)

Bit of an update.
Very, hugely sorry for the absense. I've been having a crazy ridiculous art block that started in August. After going to see The Symphony Of The Goddesses in London, I've been struck by inspiration.
So, juggling work, art, family and gaming is a crazy thing to do! I will reply to comments left on my stuff in due time.
I also got featured in a popular magazine here in the UK, called NEO magazine (issue 150) so i've got all kinds of feels :D

Thanks again for everyone's support and I'll be with you all again before you know it.

  1. How long have you been on DeviantArt?
    I've been a member of deviantART for 10 years now. It's been a long time.

  2. What does your username mean?
    Sarrus was my first OC that actually meant something to me, so I naturally chose that name.

  3. Describe yourself in three words.
    Unique, Tired, Busy.

  4. Are you left or right handed?
    I have both... Right though.

  5. What was your first deviation?
    kh cloud strife by sarrus
    My first ever digitally coloured picture too.

  6. What is your favourite type of art to create?
    Digital art, mostly fan art from Video Games. Definitely followed closely by my own creations, I love creating and drawing my OC's

  7. If you could instantly master a different art style, what would it be?
    I would have to say learning is part of the fun towards mastering. But if I HAD to choose something it would be 3D modelling.

  8. What was your first favourite?
    Cloud and Leon by Lizeth
    According to dA, that one. :D

  9. What type of art do you tend to favourite the most?
    Digital art, mostly of Video Games.

  10. Who is your all-time favourite deviant artist?
    Argh. That's an amazingly tough choice. I would have to say kilara as I owe so much to her for teaching me what I needed to improve my skills and get me going towards where I am now. Her work is always pleasant to see too, although not very active now :)

  11. If you could meet anyone on DeviantArt in person, who would it be?
    Hmm, tough choice again. I actually can't answer that. I am a very closed off individual. Apart from my wife and kids, I don't really interact with people. I'd love to meet and learn so much from so many people I look up to on dA.

  12. How has a fellow deviant impacted your life?
    Again, kilara mainly because I probably would have taken a lot longer to learn and improve if I wasn't lucky enough for her to teach me things.

  13. What are your preferred tools to create art?
    Computer and graphics tablet, hands down. I'm such a messy and indecisive artist, I'd wear through paper if I did my work traditionally :D

  14. What is the most inspirational place for you to create art?
    My mind. Everything I do is imagined as I go about my daily routines as a father and house husband.

  15. What is your favourite DeviantArt memory?
    I would have to say when Robaato complimented my Esmerelda deviation. Someone I look up to a fairly large amount commenting on my work meant a lot.

Thanks to anyone who read all this. Now you know me a little better.
And to all you lovely people who are watching/favouriting/commenting on my work. Thank you, very, very much.

Hello! A few people have asked me about commissions, so here goes.
Current pricing is as follows.

Single character lines - $10

Single character with shading - $15

Single character with full colour and shading - $25

(Backgrounds and additional characters can be added on at various discounted prices to be negotiated via Note)

Payment via PayPal after initial rough sketch is done.

If you're wondering why the prices are quite low is because I am a family man and my time is limited each day so I can't guarantee the time frame of each commission (no longer than 5 days)

I look forward to doing business with you lovely people and hope to receive some notes for commissions :)
