Hi I'm Cult/Isaac, a transgender disabled artist based in the UK. I'm currently 21 years old (birthday dec 2nd) at the time of writing this. I truly believe I exist to create; art, games, websites, characters, photography, writing- I just love to make things! You can learn more about me and my interests below.
I love to create. I went to university for a while for creating games before dropping out due to my health. I made a platformer game as a solo dev in 2017/2018 though I never published this project as it was a simple first venture into games! I've volunteered on other game projects since though I strive to one day fully develop a game.
Pretty much everything I've created I've done through teaching myself. I started working on my art seriously in 2014 and have been developing ever since. I had 1 year of formal classes in university but am otherwise self taught. All websites (including this one!) and games projects I've developed through a lot of patience and googling.
I always have tons of ongoing projects- one of my main projects I've been working on for a long time is my character universe. I'm not ready to share a large amount of this project due to people stealing my stories, but you can learn a little more about it in 'My OCs' tab!
As previously mentioned, I'm physically disabled. I've had numerous major surgeries throughout my life. This means I'm not able to go to work like an able-bodied person. I make my living through my art. Thank you so much for your support <3
Please check out my wonderful boyfriend's artwork.
Video games are one of my main passions, both creating and playing! I don't play a lot of video games frequently, but I always find myself going back to Animal Crossing, Slay The Spire, and Satisfactory! I enjoy more strategy and resource management based games! City builders are another favourite of mine.
Tattoos and piercings have always been something I'm passionate about! I have quite a few tattoos (and my website's design is based on them!). I have a tattoo gun and I'm slowly teaching myself how to tattoo.
Music has always been a huge part of my creation process. Most of my pieces and adopts are based on a song or album. I'm mainly interested in progressive metal and djent- though I'll listen to a bit of everything! My favourite bands at the time of writing this are Sleep Token, Thornhill, Northlane, Aphex Twin, thrown, and Queens Of The Stone Age. I don't create music, but it's an avenue I'm interested in possibly giving a go in the future.
The Macabre and unusual has always been incredibly interesting to me. I have various collections of bones and other unusual items and finds. A lot of them are really good references I use frequently for my artwork!
△ Triangles are the best shape.
Here you can find a list of the tools, programs and brushes that I use.
DRAWING TABLET: I use a Wacom Intuos Medium (With Bluetooth)
ART PROGRAM: All of my work is created in Clip Studio Paint 2
MY BRUSHES: I'm currently making my own brush pack. This isn't ready for release yet, but will be linked where when it is.
PURCHASED BRUSHES: I also use a lot of brushes made by GarnetDawn/TheDawner. I edit these brushes usually, so I won't be able to release my versions. You can find many of their brushes here.
Do you take requests?
Sorry but I don't take requests! My art takes a lot of time, and I can't spare the time for requests. I occasionally will draw free art and gifts for my friends and ko-fi subs though!
How do I commission you?
Commissions are currently on hold at the moment as I'm recovering from some pretty major surgery! When I open for commissions, I post for openings to my ko-fi subs first in my discord server. If those slots aren't claimed, I will post about openings when they happen on my other socials.
How can I purchase your adoptables?
All of my adoptables can be found on my ko-fi page. Ko-fi marks adopts as sold immediately upon purchase and you recieve the files instantly. It also allows payment with paypal or a debit/credit card!
Do you do art trades?
I am open to being asked about trades from mutuals (meaning we both follow each other). I get asked this a lot by people that heavily reference my work- I'm sorry but I'm not interested in trading for art that looks similar to mine!
Can I use your art/character?
Sorry but no, my work is not available for public use unless stated otherwise. I don't allow others to use my characters or art. You're welcome to draw my characters as gifts, but please don't claim them as your own!
Can I trace/reference your work?
I don't allow others to trace or heavily reference (referencing line for line) my work. I would recommend against doing this anyway, as it stunts your progress as an artist. There's much better ways to learn than tracing and referencing other artists closely.
Why won't you draw certain artists' designs?
I very rarely deny drawing specific characters or specific artists' designs. When I deny drawing them, it's due to personal issues. I'm quite a mentally frail person and will only deny designs if the artist has personally harmed me somehow ;; Please respect this.
