About Me

My name is Vix.I am very quiet and shy. Pretty much a hermit who works alone, but I have a good heart, am honest, am kind to others and am very trustworthy.I am also an experienced video game veteran and professional artist who has been playing video games and drawing for years. Though I still keep learning.I plan on becoming an indie video game developer and freelance character designer. Currently working on my own original IP, Norm Breaker, which will get it's start as an indie game. It's release date is currently unknown.

Important regarding requests and art trades
I'm generally a nice artist, but don't spam and beg for when the request will be finished. It is best to be patient since I eventually draw and finish art that has been requested, as seen in my gallery. It is rude to rush artists in general when said artist is doing something nice for you. I work hard when drawing my work, and sometimes it takes a while to finish.If you want to draw any of my original characters, such as those from my original series, look at their model sheets and the pictures I drew of them first. I plan to write full character bios on all of them soon. Though I was born as one of two genders, I'm still keeping my real gender/name a secret here for safety reasons so this is why I draw myself as with an androgynous look and body type. If you want to draw me, then ask me first, If you want to draw any of my other original characters, then send me a note so that I know.Important regarding gifts (including birthday gifts)
I sometimes draw gift art for artists I watch and for those who watch me due to them drawing amazing art and being kind to me in general, as long as I read their rules and FAQs first so that I understand their feelings and rules completely. I'm aware that not every artist allows other people to draw their characters so I want to make sure before I draw anything. If an artist allowed other artists to draw their characters before, then it should be no problem. If you don't want me to draw any of your characters, then I will stop and won't do it again. Send me a note if you have any questions or thoughts.I am not a weird fetish artist
The closest I can get to drawing fetishes would be muscles, sports, costumes, parodies, satire and different sizes, and I also draw stuff that is true to the source material (such as Yoshi or Kirby eating food), but that is it. Most fetishes are weird, and I much rather not go that far.I am not a hate artist
All of my "anti" art is just satire and does not slander any person nor group of people. I know the rules and limits. You do not have to worry.Patience is the key
It is best to be patient since I'm very busy in life (such as drawing, playing video games, reading the latest news, spending time with family and all that good stuff) so do not bug/rush me about it.I don't forget about requests and art trades as I always have them in mind and won't forget. Don't worry about it, because once someone gives me a request or trade, I will draw and finish it as soon as possible.If you have anything to say to me, then send me a note or chat and then I'll answer.

Frequently Asked Questions

This is helpful when getting to know me and who I am.

Q: Why did you get an account on the sites you have?
A: As an experienced artist, it is to help get my art out there in the world. However, I'm still keeping my profile clean and well organized.Q: Why did disable comments on your profile and gallery, and why don't you write and post comments?
A: For safety. I do not want to be harassed and I follow the rule of "don't feed the trolls" carefully. Even if you try to comment on my profile, I will still delete the comments anyway. Not offending anyone, but this is for safety.It is important that I stay away from toxic influence, flame wars, drama and other bad stuff. I also don't want to bother anyone, so you don't have to worry about that, either.Comments are nothing but troll feeding and attention seeking. It is fine for other users to have their comments open and comment on their own stuff all they want, but I'm just going to play safe, myself.If you want to contact me, then the best thing is to send me a private note or chat since I prefer to communicate privately.Q: You don't go around talking to strangers, do you?
A: Nope. I just like to submit my art. It's nice that people like my work though, and that's fine with me. I occasionally chat or send a note to one of my watchers who like my art, or if I see a picture in someone else's gallery that I really like, then there is a chance that I might send them a note (but not everyone), and that's pretty much it. I'm not going to bother anybody, since I am very good about leaving other users alone. I will let other people/users be themselves and that's fine.Q: Where do you get your ideas?
A: That should stay a secret since I much rather not be asked on where I get them, since everything that I draw are my own ideas. (Unless the description says otherwise) I do read a lot, offline and online. However, I will try to finish my work as soon as possible since I follow a deadline set up by myself. I'm still willing to draw art for people who are nice and trustworthy.Q: Do you even play the video games that you draw fanart of?
A: Yes, of course I do. I've been playing video games since I was a young child and has been the video game expert since. My interest in video games and franchises also have broadened over time, especially when it comes to a crossover game such as the Super Smash Bros. series, PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale and Project X Zone 1 and 2. I also read professional reviews and am aware of the pros and cons of various games. As a historian, I would never grow out of anything that I actually like.Q: Do you take requests?
A: No, not as much as I used to. I only take requests during the holiday season when I have the time.Q: Do you take art trades?
A: Yes. I'm always open for art trades.Q: Do you take commissions?
A: No. Unless it's free. I don't take commissions (or at least, not paid commissions with real money). I won't use real money because my money is for family only. Send me a note if you have any questions, and then I'll read it and see.Q: Would you draw gift art for another user?
A: Yes, and this includes birthday gifts. Be sure to send me a note if you want one.Q: Would you draw for a collab?
A: Yes.Q: Would you draw for an art jam?
A: Yes.Q: How many requests do you take at once from a requester?
A: Normally, I take one at a time. It is important to be patient because it is very rude to rush an artist when said artist is doing something nice for you. Once I finish the request, I will be ready to do more. Remember that it will take time for the drawing to be finished, so this is why it's best to be patient.Q: Can requesters and art traders stay anonymous?
A: Only if they want to. When I draw and submit the requested artwork, I only mention their username in the description and nothing else.Q: How many characters are allowed in a single drawing?
A: It depends. Drawing a large group of characters in a single drawing takes a longer time than a drawing of just one character, but I can do both.Q: Are you (insert user here)?
A: Nope. I'm just me, Vix. Any similarities with another person is purely coincidental.Q: What does your name mean?
A: "Vix" is actually an acronym of victory, intelligence and xylography, and also short for "victory fox". Has nothing to do with "vixen". "Dojo" refers to a dojo master or someone who trains at a dojo, which refers to me training myself when getting better at drawing and video game playing, or everything else I enjoy. "Fox" refers to the animal itself, and my favorite fictional character, Fox McCloud from Star Fox. My alias is either "Vix" or "Dojo", but I normally refer myself as "Vix".

Important Rules

  • I manage and control my reputation. I don't post comments, but I appreciate the support and all the favorites.

  • Never ask for any personal information on me because it all stays private. Especially since I'm trying to stay as anonymous as possible, myself.

  • If you have kind words or anything else you want to say, then send me a note or chat. I will read it and see.

  • I disable comments for a reason. It is because of self care and to protect myself from harassment. And no, I will not enable them because that would put me in danger. I know almost everything about staying safe on the Internet.

  • If you want to give me criticism, then just send me a note. Exposing me, writing a rant about how much you dislike me or call out on me in your journal or status update will not be tolerated or else I'll tell you to delete it.

  • Constructive criticism is fine, since everyone learns from it, but no harassment. As said before, the latter is why I have comments disabled.

  • You have no right to write call out posts on me. Trolling/flaming/harassing/calling out on me is forbidden and not allowed.

  • I'm not a lolcow. It is not acceptable to write such posts/articles/threads about me anywhere online. Go milk someone else for laughs.

  • I'm not a hypocrite, and I don't lie. I tell the truth. I've known and followed the rules since long before I was online.

  • I'm not your girlfriend/boyfriend/lover. Do not ask me for a date. I'm not a romance option. I'm asexual and have no interest in getting into a relationship with anyone of either gender. Go flirt with someone else.

  • Absolutely do not draw/write porn of me. This is forbidden. I'm an exception to that one rule on the Internet (you know what I'm talking about). This same rule goes for any underage original character that I create.

  • I'm willing to control what others think or say about me. So even in your personal opinion and imagination, I always tell the truth about myself.

  • Hate art of me and/or any good character that I created is off limits and will not be tolerated. Hate speech also does not work on me. There are exceptions to free speech and any form of hate speech against me is one of the exceptions. If someone were to trash talk about me, then I'll either report said someone or tell them to delete what they said about me. Doing so is also against the rules so it is better to not say anything about me at all if you don't like me or what I do. I'm also aware of the other site rules, too.

  • Do not compare me to people that are infamous and/or weird, whether it be online or offline. I'm neither infamous nor weird. Any similarity between me and another person is coincidental.

  • Most importantly, do not compare me to Chris-Chan. I'm nothing like him. He is a criminal and is one Internet celeb that I dislike. I strive not to be like him, without a doubt. This is why I'm being creative with my series and art.

  • Hacking is never allowed. I value my privacy. I protect my stuff well (such as accounts) and fight back. You have been warned.

  • Doxxing is especially forbidden and never allowed. This is illegal.

  • I'm not cringe. If you don't like me, then don't say a word. It is not okay to put me or what I draw in any cringe compilations.

  • All of my art is drawn by me. I would never steal other people's art in any form. Do not accuse me. I know that art theft is wrong, and this includes tracing.

  • None of my art is AI generated. I'm a human artist.

  • I'm a freehand artist, not a tracer. While some of my older art do certainly look like redraws or personal interpretations, they are still not traces/theft. I only redraw or use references on occasion, but that should not be seen as a bad thing and I have long since improved as an artist over time and still continues to keep learning.

  • I'm not here to get attention. I draw because it is fun and helps me express myself to the world.

  • Do not report me, even if you don't like me. I'm not going to bother anyone.

  • You have no right to mention me on any "watch out for these users" kind of journal or any negative lists or "worst" lists online. I won't tolerate that and I'm far from being one of the worst. Trash talking about me in general will not be tolerated.

  • Do not report me. I don't want my account banned. Otherwise, I'll uplift the ban and will no longer be banned. I did nothing wrong.

  • Do not block me without reason. I do like to look at other people's art on the Internet. It's best to ignore or don't watch me if you don't like me or what I draw since blocking only adds more to Internet censorship. Blocking someone just because you don't like their art is also an act of cowardice, and the inflation of one's own ego. Blocking should only be used on users who are actually bad, such as a dangerous troll or hacker, but not innocent artists such as myself. Whatever happened to "Don't like, don't look"?

  • I don't roleplay. Sorry if it's disappointing for those who want to roleplay, but it's just not my thing, especially not in public.

  • You don't have to like my art if you don't want to. Just don't be mean about it. That is all.

  • And finally... Don't like my gallery? Then don't look. The back button is your friend.

And what if someone breaks your rules?Then I will either tell the rulebreaker to delete everything he/she said about me or report said rulebreaker to the administrators so that the rulebreaker will be banned and his hate art/rants/articles/posts about me getting deleted off the Internet for good.And now for more information...I'm well aware about what I can and cannot post when it comes to DeviantArt, and I'm being very careful about it.Thanks for reading this and the fact that you have understood.
