This is a drop page for information on Blobs and Blob-like-Things and the commissioning thereof!

Blob Commissions are Currently Open!

Blobs started as a way for me to learn about Sketchbook once it went free. I had some experience with photo manipulation in the past, but raw drawing was fairly new, and I was still working with just a mouse when I started. A made a set of super simplified heads for characters of friends at the time, and continued on from there trying new brushes, new settings, and new ways of doing things I'd already figured out as a learning exercise.

Since the original set more proper 'rules' on what makes a Blob got set up on my end to keep things consistent.

  1. Blobs never have eyes or noses, and only have ears if it's a 'key feature' such as Mioq'te in FFXIV or elves in most settings.

  2. Blobs do not have mouths, though if lipstick is a 'key feature' it will be included without further defining the mouth.

  3. Facial markings, accessories such as glasses, and some scars can be included, though often in very simple forms.

With those core parts in mind, I do my best to capture what I believe to be the boiled down essence of a headshot for that character. Some Blobs will have parts that others do not, simply based on if I believe it's a core component of that character's look. When working for someone on it, however, I am willing to work in details that don't go against the above rules.

Blob Commissions are Currently Open!

The Commission process is as straightforward as I can make it to keep things nice and simple!

Using the email link at the bottom of the page ( bremdoesblobs at gmail dot com ), please include the following things:

  1. A reference picture of the desired character's head. This can either be a well lit screenshot from a game (modded screenshots are fine, though keep in mind that any filters may impact color choices), or artwork of the character.

  2. A brief description of any markings, accessories, hair styles, etc that are not available in the base ref image. If additional images will help define these, you're welcome to include them. DO REMEMBER THESE WILL OFTEN BE SIMPLIFIED IN BLOB FORM

  3. Any preferences you have for simple backgrounds. This should mostly stay limited to color choices, but I'll do what I can.

Once I've received the email I'll reply back if I'm planning to accept the commission! Due to the nature of Blobs themselves, I can't offer any sketches or WIP images along the way. However if there is an error in the final image I'll be happy to make reasonable corrections.

Payment currently will go entirely through the KoFi linked at the bottom of the page. Blobs will be $3 each at the time of writing, paid on completion of the Blob.

If you have ANY additional questions/concerns about the process, please contact me through the email provided below!

I do not currently have a set time expectation for these, but as they are not usually heavily time consuming, it should not generally be a long wait. If something happens and I believe there will be an extended delay, I will reach out to any affected commissioners.

Blob Emojis Comms!

The current special deal is for blob style emojis! Each individual emoji will be an 128x128 pixel image with a transparent background that can be easily slotted into apps like Discord that support custom emoji characters. There will also be a sheet image with the full collection and a simple background to show off the lot!

For example:

The Commission process is as close to the same as regular Blob commissions to keep things nice and simple!

Using the email link at the bottom of the page ( bremdoesblobs at gmail dot com ), please include the following things:

  1. A reference picture of the desired character's head. This can either be a well lit screenshot from a game (modded screenshots are fine, though keep in mind that any filters may impact color choices), or artwork of the character.

  2. A brief description of any markings, accessories, hair styles, etc that are not available in the base ref image. If additional images will help define these, you're welcome to include them. DO REMEMBER THESE WILL OFTEN BE SIMPLIFIED IN BLOB FORM, AND EMOJI ARE EVEN MORE SIMPLIFIED! Only so much fits in 128x128 pixels.

  3. Up to 6 expressions/emoji examples you would like used. These should generally be limited to expression emojis! If you're unclear on if one would be appropriate, ask and we can work it out!

  4. One of the 6 can be an simple animation emoji. Something like a cycling rainbow, wiggling, etc. Animation expressions would be a whole other thing that would need to be discussed and probably be it's own comm and cost.

Payment currently will go entirely through the KoFi linked at the bottom of the page. Sheets of 6 will be $6 each completion.

Simple animated emojis will count as 2 static emoji on a sheet. So 3 animated emojis would be $6. These can be mixed and matched with static emoji for making the sheets.

  2. A brief description of any markings, accessories, hair styles, etc that are not available in the base ref image. If additional images will help define these, you're welcome to include them. DO REMEMBER THESE WILL OFTEN BE SIMPLIFIED IN BLOB FORM

Addional Option:
Crossing Crossovers!

These are basically going through the same process and price as the Blobbi coms above, but are specifically taking characters and Villager-izing them in the process. Their design will be a mix of their native look and feel but with the specific villager look and feel for some portions!

All of the same rules and expectations for these still apply, and they are also $9 each and come with VERY SIMPLE backgrounds.

Current Special: Blops!

The new special is for a Blop! Inspired by popular collectables, get your very own boxed Blop for your digital shelf!

The Commission process is as close to the same as regular Blobbi commissions to keep things nice and simple!

Each Blop commission is $9, and comes with the base image as well as the boxed version!

Reference examples for each displayed Blob listed below:

Trea the Goblin:

Trea has a number of green freckles a little darker than the rest of her skin, lips often painted several shades darker green than the rest of her face, and an assortment of golden jewelry. The original picture has examples of this, but they are welcome to be different as she uses a variety. She also has a beauty mark near her lip. Also, including her sculpted brows would be great!

Her primary choice of clothing colors is royal purples and gold trim, so a purple background would be ideal.

Bremwyda the Roegadyn:

Brem is largely as shown in the ref picture. She does have facial burn scars, but I'm not looking to include them in this particular version. I want one of her at a point prior too. Here hair is at little more blue as a baseline than the image looks though! Lipstick is kind of a big deal with her, specifically dark grays. The thing on her face is part of her head, but it can be done a lot more 'simple' if needed!
Something with a splash of red and texturing would be great for a background!

Tempest the Miqo'te:

Tempest isn't super complicated design wise. The main thing I'd like to make sure is included is her dopey little dodo earring. Dopey and dodos are both pretty core parts of her character!

I don't have strong feelings about a background, do what you think would fit!
