About Me

Chipiku   |   she / her    |   May 27

Hello and welcome to my page!

I'm a freelancer illustrator and VTuber artist. My art is very flexible and can always adapt to different needs.

I'm currently graduated with a bachelor degree in VFX and 3D animation, from Canada, Quebec.

I'm able to speak French, English and Spanish.

My inspirations come from all kind of musics and my environment on the daily. I enjoy drawing characters and give personality to them!

The client will have to pay 50% upfront deposit to be part of the waiting list and the other 50% will need to be pay 1 day before or on the start date of the request.By reading and accepting this, the client agrees to wait for at least 1 week to 2 months before starting their project.2-3 slots are usually available for the waiting list (monthly). After all slots are filled, it will be close until I re-open again.I will be informing via message on X (Twitter) or VGen the day I start the request.GENERAL INFORMATION
All services in VGen are not "first come, first served" and anyone who aren't selected will be notify, after selection.
Keep in mind, you can always apply again for the next batch. Due to high volume demand, I can't pick every single ones due to limited slots available.
