About Me

My name is Vix, also known as Dojo.Quiet and shy. A hermit who works alone, but I still have a good heart and am very honest and trustworthy.I'm also an experienced video game veteran and artist. I still keep learning each day.I plan to become an indie video game developer and professional freelance character designer. Currently working on my original IP, Norm Breaker, which will get it's start as an indie game. It's release date is currently unknown.

What I draw

  • Animals

  • Anti art (it reduces stress)

  • Anything that I never drawn before (except for those that I won't draw, see below)

  • Black comedy and dark humor

  • Crossovers

  • Digital art

  • Fan art (Mostly video game fanart, but I draw other stuff, too.)

  • Fan art that is true to the source material

  • Fanservice/ecchi of adult characters

  • Internet celebrities (such as famous YouTubers)

  • Internet memes (such as Doge)

  • Original art/characters

  • Parodies and satire

  • Seasonal outfits (inspired by games like Fire Emblem Heroes and Mario Kart Tour)

  • Sports

  • Traditional art

What I don't draw

  • Anything that is bad, deals with illegal subject matter or against my will. Anything that is too weird. I stay out of trouble and away from negative influence.

  • Anything that is against my important rules.

  • Anything that is too explicit/pornographic/NSFW. (I may draw ecchi/fanservice and tasteful nudity, but no hentai or anything beyond that.)

  • Illegal subject matter, which is unacceptable.

  • Weird fetishes

  • Underage

Important regarding requests and art trades
I'm generally a nice artist, but don't spam and beg for when the request will be finished. It is best to be patient since I eventually draw and finish art that has been requested, as seen in my gallery. It is rude to rush artists in general when said artist is doing something nice for you. I work hard when drawing my work, and sometimes it takes a while to finish.If you want to draw any of my original characters, such as those from my original series, look at their model sheets and the pictures I drew of them first. Also, if you want to draw me, then let me know first.Though I was born as one of two genders, I'm still keeping my real gender/name a secret here for safety reasons so this is why I draw myself as with an androgynous look and body type.Important regarding gifts (including birthday gifts)
I sometimes draw gift art for artists I watch and for those who watch me due to them drawing amazing art and being kind to me in general, as long as I read their rules and FAQs first so that I understand their feelings and rules completely.I'm aware that not every artist allows other people to draw their characters so I want to make sure before I draw anything. If an artist allowed other artists to draw their characters before, then it should be no problem. If you don't want me to draw any of your characters, then I will stop and won't do it again.Send me a note if you have any questions or thoughts.I am not a fetish artist
The closest I can get to drawing fetishes would be muscles, sports, costumes (such as food costumes), bubble blowing, parodies and different sizes, and I also draw stuff that is true to the source material (such as Yoshi or Kirby eating food), but that is it. Fetishes are weird, and I much rather not go that far.I only draw anti art to reduce stress and for teh lulz
I only drew anti-art for satirical purposes and to spread awareness, showing how awful certain things can be. Most feature just fictional characters, but if there's an Internet celebrity that's problematic, chances are I may draw anti art of it. It does not slander any person nor group of people. I know the rules and limits. You do not have to worry.Patience is the key
It is best to be patient since I'm very busy in life (such as drawing, playing video games, reading the latest news, spending time with family and all that good stuff) so do not bug/rush me about it.I don't forget about what you want me to draw because I always have them in mind and won't forget. Don't worry about it, because once someone gives me an idea of what I should draw next, then I will draw and finish it as soon as possible.If you have anything to say to me, then send me a note or chat and then I'll answer.

Frequently Asked Questions

This is helpful when getting to know me and who I am.

Q: Why did you get an account on the sites you have?
A: As an experienced artist, it is to help get my art out there in the world. However, I'm still keeping my profile clean and well organized.Q: Why did disable comments on your profile, and why don't you write and post comments yourself?
A: For safety. I do not want to be harassed and I follow the rule of "don't feed the trolls" carefully. Even if you try to comment on my profile, I will still delete the comments anyway. Not offending anyone, but this is for safety.It is important that I stay away from toxic influence, flame wars, and drama. I also don't want to bother anyone, so you don't have to worry about that, either.Though I enable comments on my artwork.If you want to contact (and criticize) me, then the best thing is to send me a private note or chat since I prefer to communicate privately.Q: You don't go around talking to strangers, do you?
A: Nope. I just like to submit my art. It's nice that people like my work though, and that's fine with me. I occasionally chat or send a note to one of my watchers who like my art, and that's pretty much it. I'm not going to bother anybody, since I am very good about leaving other users alone. I will let other people/users be themselves and that's fine.Q: Where do you get your ideas?
A: That should stay a secret since I much rather not be asked on where I get them, since everything that I draw are my own ideas. (Unless the description says otherwise) I do read a lot, offline and online. However, I will try to finish my work as soon as possible since I follow a deadline set up by myself.Q: Do you even play the video games that you draw fanart of?
A: Yes, of course I do. I've been playing video games since I was a young child and has been the video game expert since. My interest in video games and franchises also have broadened over time, especially when it comes to a crossover game such as the Super Smash Bros. series, PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale and Project X Zone 1 and 2. I also read professional reviews and am aware of the pros and cons of various games. As a historian, I would never grow out of anything that I actually like.Q: Do you take requests?
A: Sometimes. I only take requests during the holiday season when I have the time.Q: Do you take art trades?
A: Yes. I'm always open for art trades.Q: Do you take commissions?
A: I only take point commissions on DeviantArt. I don't take other commissions unless it's free. I currently don't take paid commissions with real money because my money is for family only. Send me a note if you have any questions, and then I'll read it and see.Q: Would you draw gift art for another user?
A: Yes, and this includes birthday gifts. Be sure to send me a note if you want one.Q: Would you draw for a collab?
A: Yes.Q: Would you draw for an art jam?
A: Yes.Q: How many requests do you take at once from a requester?
A: Normally, I take one at a time. It is important to be patient because it is very rude to rush an artist when said artist is doing something nice for you. Once I finish the request, I will be ready to do more. Remember that it will take time for the drawing to be finished, so this is why it's best to be patient.Q: Can requesters and art traders stay anonymous?
A: Only if they want to. When I draw and submit the requested artwork, I only mention their username in the description and nothing else.Q: How many characters are allowed in a single drawing?
A: It depends. Drawing a large group of characters in a single drawing takes a longer time than a drawing of just one character, but I can do both.Q: Are you (insert user here)?
A: Nope. I'm just me, Vix. Any similarities with another person is purely coincidental.Q: What does your name mean?
A: "Vix" is actually an acronym of victory, intelligence and xylography, and also short for "victory fox". Has nothing to do with "vixen". "Dojo" refers to a dojo master or someone who trains at a dojo, which refers to me training myself when getting better at drawing and video game playing, or everything else I enjoy. My alias is either "Vix" or "Dojo", but I normally refer myself as "Vix".

Important Rules

  • I manage and control my reputation. I don't post comments myself except on my own work, but I appreciate the support and all the likes/favorites/comments.

  • Never ask for any personal information on me because it all stays private. Especially since I'm trying to stay as anonymous as possible, myself.

  • If you have kind words or anything else you want to say, then send me a note or chat. I will read it and see.

  • I have the right to protect myself from harassment. I know almost everything about staying safe on the Internet.

  • If you want to give me blunt criticism, then just send me a note. Exposing me, writing a rant about how much you dislike me or call out on me in your journal, video, etc, will not be tolerated or else I'll tell you to delete it.

  • You have no right to make call out posts or videos on me. Trolling/flaming/harassing/calling out on me is forbidden and not allowed.

  • I'm not a lolcow. It is not acceptable to write such posts/articles/threads about me anywhere online. Go milk someone else for laughs.

  • I don't lie. I tell the truth. While I may act naive and unpredictable sometimes, I still would never lie to anyone. I've known and followed the rules since long before I was online. And even if you think the whole "I tell the truth" thing is not entirely true, I'm generally honest and, for example, it is still the truth that I'm aromantic asexual. I'm not afraid to tell the truth, even if facts don't care about feelings.

  • I'm not your girlfriend/boyfriend/lover. Do not ask me for a date. I'm not a romance option. I'm aromantic asexual and have no interest in getting into a relationship with anyone of either gender. Go flirt with someone else.

  • Absolutely do not draw/write porn of me. This is forbidden. I'm an exception to that one rule on the Internet (you know what I'm talking about). This same rule goes for any underage original character that I create.

  • I'm willing to control what others think or say about me. So even in your personal opinion and imagination, I always tell the truth about myself.

  • Mockery is not acceptable. I may take criticism but I will never tolerate being mocked, harassed, or worse.

  • Hate art of me and/or any good character that I created is off limits and will not be tolerated. Hate speech also does not work on me. There are exceptions to free speech and any form of hate speech against me is one of the exceptions. If someone were to trash talk about me, then I'll either report said someone or tell them to delete what they said about me. Doing so is also against the rules so it is better to not say anything about me at all if you don't like me or what I do. I'm also aware of the other site rules, too.

  • Do not compare me to people that are infamous and/or weird, whether it be online or offline. I'm neither infamous nor weird. Any similarity between me and another person is coincidental. Most importantly, do not compare me to Chris-Chan nor Andrew Dobson. I'm nothing like those two or other Internet celebs that are lolcows. I strive not to be like them, without a doubt. This is why I'm being creative with my series/art and actually learn from my experiences.

  • Do not share links to my websites without my approval. And most importantly, do not share my personal information. Other users, especially my naysayers, are not allowed to find and know my real name, age, hometown, home address, and other personal information. This is why I just go by an alias and only mention my home country (United States), and nothing more.

  • Doxxing is strictly forbidden and never allowed. Because doxxing is illegal. Never dox the 'Fox or else you are punished.

  • Hacking is never allowed. I value my privacy, which is important. I protect my stuff well (such as accounts) and fight back. You have been warned.

  • I'm not cringe. If you don't like me, then don't say a word. It is not okay to put me or what I draw in any cringe compilations.

  • All of my art is drawn by me. I would never steal other people's art in any form. Do not accuse me. I know that art theft is wrong, and this includes tracing.

  • I'm not stuck in the past. Especially since I enjoy and stay up to date with the latest technology (such as playing the latest video games and systems in addition to all the older ones). Being a historian (which I am) is different than being stuck in the past.

  • I am not an AI Artist. None of my art is AI generated. I'm a human artist.

  • I do not support NFTs. They harmful to not only the environment, but also to your wallet.

  • I'm a freehand artist, not a tracer. While some of my older art do certainly look like redraws or personal interpretations, they are still not traces/theft. I only redraw or use references on occasion, but that should not be seen as a bad thing and I have long since improved as an artist over time and still continues to keep learning.

  • I'm not here to get attention. I draw because it is fun and helps me express myself to the world.

  • You have no right to mention me on any "watch out for these users" kind of journal or any negative lists or "worst" lists online. I won't tolerate that and I'm far from being one of the worst. Trash talking about me in general will not be tolerated.

  • Do not report me, even if you don't like me. I'm not going to bother anyone. I don't want my account banned. Otherwise, I'll uplift the ban and will no longer be banned. I did nothing wrong.

  • Do not block me unless you have a reason to. I do like to look at other people's art on the Internet. It's best to ignore or don't watch me if you don't like me or what I draw since blocking only adds more to Internet censorship. Blocking someone just because you don't like their art is also an act of cowardice, and the inflation of one's own ego. Blocking should only be used on users who are actually bad, such as spammers, sickos, dangerous users, and hackers, but not innocent artists such as myself. Whatever happened to "Don't like, don't look"?

  • I don't roleplay. Sorry if it's disappointing for those who want to roleplay, but it's just not my thing, especially not in public.

  • You don't have to like my art if you don't want to. Just don't be mean about it. That is all.

  • And finally... Don't like my gallery? Then don't look. The back button is your friend.

Rules to follow when it comes to drawing me and my characters

  • Never redesign them such as modifying their appearance or anything that may compromise their original design. However, it is fine if you draw them to be more easy to you such as simplifying their design. I also drew model sheets and written biographies for most of my characters so they're a must-read before you want to draw them. I know that you don't like being told what to do, but I was just giving out some truth.

  • No NSFW art of the underage and/or asexual characters such as Vosso (who is both underage and ace) and Kivuli (who is ace) to name a few).

  • Absolutely NO NSFW art of me, period. I am the sex-repulsed flavor of asexual, and will never tolerate myself nor the things I create being used in sexual content. Shipping me with someone (i.e. users, celebrities, other people, fictional characters) is illegal and not acceptable. Also, I do not wear midriff-barring or any other fetish-related outfits. Same goes for underage and other asexual characters.

  • It is not okay to change the characters' species. My characters' species should be left alone for a good reason.

  • Underage and/or asexual characters are not allowed to wear skimpy clothing such as bikinis and any midriff-barring and fetish-related outfits.

  • Underage and/or asexual characters should never be shipped/paired up with themselves or other characters/people/etc.

  • No Pro-Lion King propaganda. This includes Lion King/Guard crossovers in a positive light. Sorry, I just have a strong negative view on that franchise.

  • Never put me in a group pic with lolcows such as Chris-Chan and Andrew Dobson to name a few. I'm not a lolcow myself.

  • Absolutely no traitors/betrayals when it comes to Norm Breaker's good/protagonist characters due to the entire Norm Breaker squad having strong bonds. And yes, this includes Mabaya, despite his "evil" looks and name (which is the Swahili word for "evil"), he is a good guy and not a villain. Same with the rest of the Norm Breaker squadron and their allies.

  • Official couples in Norm Breaker (such as Misuli/Cyan) are not allowed to break up nor paired with anyone else other than each other. Their bonds give them strength after all.

  • Hate art of me or any good character that I created is off limits and will not be tolerated.

And what if someone breaks your rules?Then I will either tell the rulebreaker to delete everything he/she said about me or report said rulebreaker to the administrators so that the rulebreaker will be banned and his hate art/rants/articles/posts about me getting deleted off the Internet for good.And now for more information...I'm well aware about what I can and cannot post when it comes to the Internet, and I'm being very careful about it.Thanks for reading this and the fact that you have understood.

Fictional character(s): Fox McCloud (Star Fox).This will help you know more on who I am.SOME MORE FACTS ABOUT ME-The first video game that I've played is, of course, the original Super Mario Bros. and Duck Hunt, both for the NES (Nintendo Entertainment System), which was also the first video game system that I had in my life.-I'm a hardcore gamer who enjoys playing video games both old and new. I currently own and play the latest Nintendo, PlayStation and Xbox consoles as well as computer games and various other games/systems that are too many to mention.-I've been a Star Fox fan since 1993 when the first game came out, but sadly, I was not able to play any game in the series until years later.-I have a daily schedule that I keep to myself. I usually draw during the day and play video games during the evening or night after dinner.-I'm aro ace (aromantic asexual) and proud of it. Don't worry, I'm not an incel.-I see fiction as fiction, and don't emulate what fictional characters do. Since I am only myself, no one else.-My art takes influence from Japanese anime/manga and western comic books.-Besides playing video games, I also look at videos on streaming websites like YouTube and Tubi on certain occasions. Collecting VHS tapes/DVDs/Blu-Ray are not my thing. (Even though I have a small collection of DVDs bought in the past, but I no longer buy DVDs.)-Since 2013, I buy my video games digitally rather than physically.-As much as I have likes and dislikes, I'm not afraid of pointing out the flaws, pros and cons of every movie, show, game and such.-I never grow out of anything that I actually like. I have a good memory and am known to preserve history.-I know a lot about obscure media and continues to do research on them.-Even though I dislike and boycott the Walt Disney Company, I respect those who like/support their works (After all, I can't control what other people like or dislike). It's just not my thing.-I think that The Lion King franchise is awful and deserves to have it's legacy be put to an end for good. I dislike for a legit reason: It glorifies genocide, name-calling, abuse and a negative depiction of entire animal species (the "good animals, evil animals" trope at it's absolute worst), plus it is derivative of other animated films at the time, and not in a good way. And news flash, I did not find Mufasa's death sad. (In fact, it's not sad at all because Mufasa is a fictional character, and a horrible one at that.) No offense to anyone who's a Lion King fan, but seriously, not all franchises have to be milked to death.-Despite being neutral to both films, I know a lot about both Gulliver's Travels (1939) and Mr. Bug Goes to Town (1941). It is because I remember watching a lot of the stuff made by Fleischer Studios/Famous Studios/Paramount Pictures (and old animated shorts in general, such as classic Looney Tunes/Warner Bros.) back when I was a child (and years later on YouTube out of curiosity). This is why some of them are often referenced in my pictures. Heck, you can say that I'm quite the popular culture historian, since I'm familiar with pretty much any movie, book, show, game, etc, old and new, regardless of what my opinion is.-I view live-action and animation equally, as I have no preference of one over the other. 3-D/CGI animation did not kill hand-drawn/2-D, since all forms of animation will always exist no matter the timeline. Begging for studios to bring back hand-drawn/2-D animation would be completely pointless.-I freaking dislike tier lists. I find them annoying for some reason and I try to treat everything as equal as possible, even though I have my likes and dislikes, too. (Seriously... How would you feel if someone made a tier list on real people and put you on the bottom worst? I also find tier lists to be mean if this is the case.)-I find Internet memes to be very funny. It's not uncommon for me to draw something based on a great Internet meme on occasion.-While I am good about handling different opinions of people and accept different political beliefs, I absolutely despise modern politics and political correctness because they ruin creativity and they try to rewrite history, which is not right. This is one of the reasons why I enjoy drawing satire and anti art a.k.a. catharsis.-When it comes to communicating, I have a preference to reading and writing over oral communication. I'm a strong, silent type who would remain extremely calm and collected, and I usually don't talk much unless I want to.-I take responsibility when it comes to surfing the Internet and am always careful. The same goes for video games.
