Katterpies

they | 25+

I'm Katti or Katters! I love caterpillars and comics... I don't have much to say usually.
I don't really have the time or energy to talk to people online, nor do I really want to. I'm much more comfortable talking to people in group settings, but please don't ask me to join your group or server..
Direct messaging:
I am not available to talk to all the time. If my status shows I'm online, that does not always mean I want to or can message people.
Will try my best to reply to commission / patreon related / or otherwise important looking messages asap, but be mindful I have a life offline and can't always answer quickly especially if it's something that is answered below.Friend Requests:
OK from the goblin discord server.
OK if you want to commission me and cannot message without a request.
I will generally decline if I don't know who you areAnswers to FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions):Using my artwork:
- Yes, you may use art I have made for you online and upload it with credit to me.
- Yes, you can also use art that was not made for you online (such as in a pfp, banner, or video edit) with credit to me, IF it's not a commission/gift for someone else.
- No, you may not reupload my comic somewhere even with credit, unless you are translating it into another language.
- Yes, you are allowed to translate any of my comics.
Commissions:
- "When are you opening commissions?" When I have time, I don't have specific opening dates.
- "Can you notify me when you open them?" No, but I will post on ko-fi and/or discord when I open slots. You will have to watch there for it.
- "Can I get an update on my commission status?" Yes but please don't barrage my dms or ask until 2-3 weeks have passed since either the last update or the initial transaction.
- "Can I change my commission to something else?" If I already took payment and started it, probably not. But you can ask.
Adoptables:
- Yes, you can put it on toyhouse or a similar character storage site.
- Yes, you can change the design or name/details it was given, but you will need to do this yourself. I'm not editing it for you.
- Yes, you can retrade or resell the character. Just do not sell for higher than originally purchased for, unless additional artwork is sold with the character.
Etsy:
- If the shop is closed, it will reopen eventually but I probably wont have an eta. If there is one, it will be in the announcement that is on the page.
- If your order did not show up on the exact day that etsy estimated it would, it is probable that it's still on the way. I ship through USPS, and it can be slow or scan things incorrectly.
- If your order never arrives, I will replace it or refund it. Just reach out to me.
- If parts of your order are damaged, I will also replace or refund it. Just reach out to me.
- If an item is out of stock, I probably do not have extras. I have run out of a few prints and stickers.
- Sculptures are one of a kind, no two are the same and I can't restock them. But I may make something similar again in the future.
Other:
- "Can we be friends?" No, I don't mind occasional chatting with people in a discord server but I'm really not looking to make friends. I tend to not have much in common with folks who are much younger than me.
- "Can you promote my comic?" No, I prefer to do this naturally on my own and not be asked to.
- "Can you join my MAP?" No
- "Can I make fanart of your characters/draw my ocs with yours?" Yes, it may take me a few days to respond but you're more than welcome to.
Something to note about asking questions...
I don't want to make people feel bad for asking.
Even if it is something I answered here.
But at the same time, I have had enough bad experiences with people looking for ways to cross my boundaries to not believe everyone has good intentions.
A lot of questions, regardless if it's all at once or over a period of time, makes me uncomfortable and cagey.
If you need extensive advice or a friend, I'm afraid I can't help you.
