This one’s actually from around the time I was doing those adopt base commissions. First time doing a com of my own creation iirc.

For the record, this wasn’t done with sarcasm and contempt (a lil contempt) in mind and more with an absence of pressure to portray myself professionally (which I assume is what they’re looking for.) Who cares. Be silly.

That should about sum it up
Screencapture of the entire profile form. Reads as follows:

More about this artist
Give customers a deeper look at who you are and what inspires your work.

How would you describe your design style?
Jolly colorful critters with beady eyes and poor anatomy choices excused as an unique artistic style.

How do you create your designs? (ex: hand drawn, watercolor, mixed media, etc)
In my silly little portable ‘pooter with my silly little magical pencil that runs on fossil fuel and dreams.

What inspires you?
The crippling anxiety to keep a roof above my head and food on the table, and I’ll take any and all crumbs of sustenance.

How did you get into surface design?
For fun. I like geckos, I drew geckos, I put those geckos in a seamless tile. Bam. Gecko textile pattern for all to enjoy.

When designing, what types of spaces or projects do you envision your designs on?
On the living/working spaces of people who haven’t yet lost their whimsy for the simple cute things in life.

Way more than $20 I can say as much lmao. Apple is a scam.

Malky @themalky.bsky.social · 05/10/2026
I went expecting ipad maintenance/replacement due to the battery lifespan running low after 6yrs. Didn’t account that the actual lifespan wasn’t low enough yet to fit into apple’s policy, or that I had to pay to know that.

Mind you, it took two whole laps around the mall, an ice cream stop and a long walk to the bus stop before the epiphany hit.

Afraid I might be either too dense or too single
Sketchy comic story of a real life experience portrayed with cutesy anthropomorphic critters.

First panel (ambiguously looking reptile behind desk shows a laptop with graphs to a crocodile) 

“Well, diagnosis says your ipad’s battery capacity is at 82% but we can’t replace it until it drops to 79%”

“And how can I check when it’s down to that number?”

“You can’t, it can only be measured with a diagnosis here. We actually charge for that service.”

“Oh…”


Second panel (croc looks nervous)

“So… how much will that be?”

“It’s xxx to run a diagnosis—“


Third panel (crocs looks surprised)

“but I won’t charge you.”(Chat continues, both smile)

“If later on you want to check the battery again, you can drop by and look for me. I won’t charge you those either. I work at this desk most of the time too.”

“Oh! uh, gotcha! Thank you!”

Croc thought bubble: “that’s very nice of him.”Croc sits pensively at the busCroc goes squinty eyed with a mild blush on cheek.

“… wait a sec.”

Couple notices: I won’t be taking new coms for a while to both give much needed maintenance to the ipad and update my stores. The car YCH will soon go on a long break. I’ll still take one or two more batches before it happens. As of now I have no plans for a new one. Black kitty barista soon 🙏

Anon message in tumblr sparked inspiration and I was all for it
Screencapture of a pokemon doodle. Raquaza garbed as 16th century polish poet Mikołaj Rey. A ribbon banner at the bottom spells out “Mr Ray Von Quaza.”Sceencapture of a tumblr anonymous ask message that reads as follows: 

hi I just wanted to tell you that your Mr Ray von Quaza drawing has changed my life forever. I say "Mr Ray von Quaza" to myself at least once a month, I always think about it when I see a picture of Rayquaza and I even named my recently bought Rayquaza plushie "Mr Rey" (Pan Rey in my language, spelled with an "e" like the 16th century polish poet Mikołaj Rey because i'm weird like that)

Have a nice day <3

And just a heads up, I’m reopening commissions tomorrow and the day after. So, that’s friday for the full body and sketch coms and saturday for the YCH at 6pm CST as usual. I’m thinking 3-4 slots for the regular coms depending on the response and the usual 10 for the beepers.
