I have until the end of this week to get together the rest of our rent (about $450 left), and two weeks to get together enough for the last of 2024's quarterly taxes ($1,200) and the power bill ($170).
Everything of what I make goes towards necessities for me and my partner, and the past few months finances have been very tight, so I was unable to put anything aside for these taxes like usual.
I've currently got unlimited slots for commissions open until these expenses are covered, and every kind of commission type is open starting as low as $40 - I can draw humanoids, anthros, dragons, creatures, Pokemon, Digimon, etc, and offer a lot of options like icons, badges, Pokemon card YCHs, fullbodies, custom designs, and more!
I also have a Patreon and Ko-fi which I offer memberships on for fun rewards, and members get discounts on my shops, commissions and adopts. My Ko-fi also has a shop with digital goods like lineart bases, and my Big Cartel has physical goodies like stickers and prints. If you're feeling particularly generous, my Ko-fi also has a simple tip feature for as low as $3, just click the "one time" button near the top of the page.
Anything at all helps, even just boosting this post or sharing my art! I super appreciate all my supporters, and I think I'll make my goal, but I'm really feeling the pressure as I've been pretty stressed and burnt out lately. Here's the links to everything:
if you wanna commission me, you can contact me through Twitter, Bluesky, Discord (@ Dracononite), or email maxhamiltonarts@gmail. Please look over my commission contract and terms of service first!
Happy Pokémon Day!

Sewaddle! It's Sewaddle community day today in pokemon go.
[Start ID: A digital drawing of the pokemon Sewaddle. Sewaddle is a small bug pokemon that is caterpillar like in shape, it is positioned in the center of the piece. It has a round yellow head with two round nubs on top, an orange mouth with two small fangs, and two round black eyes with white pupils. Most of its body is covered in a leaf cloak, with the leaf arching over its head like a hood. It has 6 small round and orange feet. The Sewaddle has a bright yellow outline and sparkles around it. The background is a radial pattern of green leaves and twigs, starting from a brighter yellow green in the center to a deeper green at the edges. End ID]
#543 - #544 - #545. As Venipede evolves, its carapace becomes a dull cocoon as its insides liquify, and if anything tries to break it, it'll stab them aggressively until dead. It regains its lustrous carapace after evolving and becomes docile, giving rides to smaller pokémon and humans it meets.

I had a pretty solid idea for scolipede itself: Make it more buggy, reference centipede anatomy, but keep its horse whimsy. I did many study of centipede faces and anatomy to figure out how to place their antennae and ultimate legs (thats what the final pair of legs that look like antennae on the end of centipedes is named!). I wanted to keep some of the horn shapes, and also have the tail look like a false head like it does in many centipedes.
The weird eye shape of these guys is referencing the ocelli of centipedes: forming compound eyes. The spikes are actually referencing a milipede instead of a centipede, Desmoxytes purpurosea, who have big pink spikes. The empty spot is meant to look like a little saddle :) and the difference in color is because i think bright green feels more toxic paired with red than the greyish purple the canon one has.
venipede was easy, adapting the canon simplicity and then just adding some centipede anatomy like the antennae below the carapace.
whirlipede however, was pretty annoying. I didnt know what to do with it! i didnt want to just make a wheel but didnt want for it to just look like a venipede curled up. i decided to go the cocoon route: the carapace is protecting the goo inside. centipede dont go through cocoon phases but shhh. made it dull to keep its unique color from the rest of the line that the canon one has.
want to be clear that if i ever talk about a headcanon and then later discuss a headcanon that is directly contradictory to the first one, that’s because headcanons exist in a quantum state where they are all simultaneously true and not true up until the point where i discuss it in detail, in which case that is the one that is true in that instance. schroedinger’s headcanons
Happy Pride month!!! Here's a tiny rainbow dragon I drew awhile ago
[Start ID: A digital drawing of a small rainbow themed dragon. The dragon is a light sky blue with a darker blue underbelly, with feathered wings in pastel rainbow colors, and bright rainbow spines. They have brown horns, bright blue eyes, and they are sticking their pink tongue out. At the end of their tail is a red heart shape. Floating around the dragon are hearts in the colors of the rainbow. Above their head is an arched rainbow with clouds at the ends. End ID]
whenever you get sad or angry at the world, there will always be tiny goat
Fish
Bottom Text
[Start ID: A digital drawing of a Fish with the words "Fish, Bottom Text". The piece is in a monochrome dull blue pallet. The fish is drawn in a cartoony silhouette like style while the background is a very simple wave pattern and bubbles. The text is light with a darker outline. End ID.]
