Alright, Gonna be opening back up for commissions again now that I have a new Commissions sheet ready. If you're interested, feel free to send me a DM.

First bit of art for 2026, and it's a bit of a re-work of my Ref sheet. Basically the same as what I've had before, but fancier (and also something I'll be adding onto in the future, too.)

Reminder: LEGALLY, paypal does not need to know what you sell. Paypal has nothing to do with your business or its transactions. Its only purpose is money transferal. However they will try to snoop into your business as much as they can. DO NOT DISCLOSE ANY DETAILS OF YOUR WORK ON PAYPAL!!

discord.gg/UBp7VSaV Gonna be dropping this here real quick for any of you who might be interested in joining my server, where I'll be posting updates and the like most often. (Do note that it IS an 18+ only server, just as a heads up.)

So, with 2026 being a little under an hour away, I feel I should at least try and lay out some things I hope to do for the new year. Maybe not full on resolutions cause my plans tend to change (what with ADHD and all that), but...hey, never hurts to have ideas, right? (🧵)

For those of us who pay quarterly taxes or any other payment by December 31, this unheralded change in postal policy can bite you in the butt. This could have other unforeseen consequences (e.g., mail-in balloting), but for now, this is more timely.

aaaand Raffle time! to celebrate 300 followers as well as the new year! you know the rules! 2 winners, fullbody! Best of luck!

On a different note, I have good news: We're all caught up on the mortgage! Of course, we still have other bills to deal with, but I'll worry about that stuff after the new year starts. Even still...MASSIVE thank you to everyone that helped us out, even just a little bit.

Just watched the final episode of SMG4, and while I am sad to see it end, I'm glad that it ended on a high note. Best of wishes to eveyone who was a part of that series.

Billionaires shouldn’t exist. Eat the rich!!

Just a heads up that I'll be closing my commissions for the rest of the year after tomorrow, so let me know if you might be interested.

www.twitch.tv/lyko00137 Gonna be doing one last stream for the year.

I don't want gen AI in my browser I don't want gen AI in my pc I don't want gen AI in my art I don't want gen AI in my games I don't want gen AI in my music I don't want gen AI in my movies I don't want gen AI in my books I don't want gen AI in my cart I don't want gen AI in my life

Repost to save a life from motion smoothing

Just started working on a new Short Story, so...something to look forwards to in the near future for those of you who like to read what I write. Also trying out a new web browser, too, what with it looking like Firefox is going down the AI route in earnest now.

If you are still on X/Twitter in any capacity as an artist, get off there right freaking now.

remember: if you're on an iphone, the default answer to any apps asking for your contact list should always be no and if you're on android, hopefully they've got better about blocking access than last time i checked

CW: #Fatfur Reepiel wanted to tease me a bit with her rather malleable body, and so she went and added on a LOT of mass to it to the point of leaving her immobile, and then stuffing me down in between her breasts. And as you can tell, I'm feeling quite flustered as a result.

i just think it's weird that all the people who make all our favorite games are broke and can't fund their next project. like maybe there's something fundamentally wrong with this industry idk

This should be the biggest story in the country right now. The sitting US President was extorting state lawmakers from his own party by threatening to withhold public money if they didn’t gerrymander for him. I don’t know how else to say it…

I 100% did not expect the govt to point at banks on behalf of the adult industry. We need to leverage the hell out of this Remember Mastercard and Visa blaming "banking partners"? If banks face repercussions their alibis could start crumbling as they get pinched between angry consumers and the feds

In the UK I can’t even read DMs unless I give them my passport and a video of my face. This happened almost overnight! Don’t take this for granted, America!

Man...been in a pretty heavy noodle dragon mood as of late.

Even if you don't create or consume NSFW content, it's still important to tell your reps and paypros to stop attacking it. Eventually they will come after things you do create or consume.

The goal has more or less reached 50% after all the fees and currency exchanges. Any help is extremely appreciated. Please, I beg you. Don't ignore this. Even a dollar helps. Even SHARING helps. Don't underestimate your power to help.

I cannot stress this enough: Do not come to the US. It's not worth the risk of ending up in an island gulag because you accused the Vice President of having a small face two years ago. This is not new. Arrests have been happening for months.

Recently finished up this commission for @shayrey.bsky.social of their sona, Reyna, bearing an astronomically hyper set of assets and looming over a whole solar system, which Shiro just so happens to be in for her to show off to.

Gosh, am I glad for the feature on Firefox where you can just unload a tab, cause...I've...kinda been doing a bit of a dive into a bunch of stuff here on Bluesky as of late, and...now I have, like, 40 different tabs of different profiles I wanna look through. >_<

Man...been in a real big "Growy BBW" mood as of late.

I'm begging any artists still using Twitter claiming it's integral to their work to just leave. It's been revealed the site works off a made up "credit score" from hell and punishes you for posting like a normal human being. Abandon Twitter for good. It's time. It's been time.

One more, I'm so close to my goal! Really, this has been amazing! What an epic! #arkveveen-art This is the penultimate part! As always, every $100 instantly increases the weight impact of likes, reposts, and every $10.00! By an additive amount! Please help me out! >>> paypal.me/Arkveveen <<<

Never believe the fuckers who say "why bother, they already won"

Decided to make a little something to celebrate the beginning of the holiday season. Featuring Lyka as the focus (with me barraging Shiro with snowballs in the background (after he hit me in the face with one))

As someone who works in the tech industry--absolutely. They are testing the waters. These are top-down orders. The ONLY way to stop it is a visceral negative reaction. Write articles. Post your rage. Email. Post. @. All those things. Only you have the power to kill it.

I am also doing a 25% off sale for all of my commission types for the holidays. Here's my commission sheet, of course, with all the base prices. (Though I will say I'm currently not taking animation commissions for the time being due to them being...a LOT more work than I thought they'd be.)

On the First day of Greench-mas, we're starting out with Aleph, ready and waiting to begin this month's mischief! Every day we'll be exploring and growing to raise funds for the ACLU, so let's get growing!

Every time someone jumps on socials and says there is no point to mass protest days and visible reaction in the streets, share this chart with them. The approval ratings are tanking not just because they're doing bad things but also because protestors won't let people forget it either.

Both Visa and Mastercard are really going to push the idea that "they dont restrict any legal transactions" when you call you need to call out how paypros restrictions arent on the transaction, but on the way they are pressuring platforms to drop/censor content that they have decided is verboten

Please keep putting pressure on PayPal. Stories like this are becoming more and more common. Artists don’t deserve to lose their source of income over payment processors being puritanical/anti-small business.

Your daily reminder that Microsoft are dodgy, grifting scumbags that want to con you out of ANYTHING they can. Where's the opt out button? Is it, perchance, that tiny bit of text that's only a notch different in colour to the panel?

Here's another sprite I recently updated, this time of Reepiel. And before you ask, this is her in "XS form"...so...yeah, she BIG.

As much as I hate their pivot to using genAI everywhere, camelcamelcamel has good price tracking and I’m not aware of any alternatives that have as much depth and breadth as them. But yes, many deals are just this trick to make you feel good. It is not legal to do this in certain countries.

Unfortunate for me to say this, but if you play Fortnite and buy their skins, this is what you’re funding.

Uhh...just because I'm concerned. Artists remember you are not required to do a Black Friday Sale. You're not a big corporation. So, you don't have to hurt yourselves. Take care. ♡

Next week the House E&C Committee is looking to run something of a shock and awe campaign, debating at least 19 bills that they say are related to "protecting kids online." Most of which are actually about censorship and control. Don't buy the framing. It's always the same damn thing.

Yourself Cheeti realises not everyone has the best things to say about themselves. And this shouldn't be true! Everyone has something good they can share with the world! They just need the right words to encourage them to share it! Sometimes those words can come from yourself.

Vaccines save lives. And no, they do not cause autism.

I saw a lot of people send the original article my way, which i did not share because it seemed like obvious bullshit. Now that has been shown to be true. I know people are worried about AI stuff, but try to be a bit more careful about what's real and what's not.
