Hallo There!
I'm Cosmos, and I'll be running this Art Shop for small-time breedables artist, Taro Rae.
You may have seen Taro's work at Gods of Styricum, Toxicity, or Taro's own shop, Empyreans.
Taro's art has been featured in a number of Gaian's signatures, and has even placed in a few prominant Art Contests in the last two years.
This will be Taro's second attempt at an Art Shop. The previous one was a far less professional thread called Taro's Art Shack. If any of you remember that shop, you'll also notice that the art has greatly improved since then. So instead of revitalizing the old shop, we decided to just open up a new one.
And here it is, Cosmos Continuum~
So, please! Stop and chat, have a look, and commission Taro if you like what you see!

News & Updates
Here's where there will be news updates, such as special offers, freebie giveaways, other threads that may be of interest and the like.
SHOP STATUS: PM me for slot info~
July 26th~ Taking Commissions again...
April 13th~ Actually catching up on Commissions. I need to focus on my Novel, so I will likely only open one slot at a time for the next while. Bribes are still open.
Dec 24th~ Happy Holidays to all! Thank you to those fine folk who hang out and chat. I appreciate the company and it helps (inadvertantly) bump the page. All Xmas gifts are finished, so we return to your regular broadcast programming. heart
Nov 22nd~ A Note for the Holiday Season. This year I'm making gifts for all the folk on my present list. Due to this, I need time for these things so that they're done in time. That said, I've booked off Slots 1 and 2 for working on gifts, and seeing as how time goes closer to yule, I may need to temporarily postpone working on pending commissions in order to get gift things done first. Thanks for your understanding! And remember, there's always the waiting list. wink
Featured Item: Cosmos Collective
Go Check it Out! I finally have my own Website!
You'll find information on some of my stories, a limited gallery and information on how to commission me IRL and contact me. Please give it a gander.

If you wish to place an order but the slots are all full, please hold off on submitting a form until you see the slots open up again.
In the meantime, you may request to be put on the Waiting List. This means you will get priority over someone new placing an order. However, the Waiting List is not numerically ordered, so the first person on the waiting list to contact me, either through the thread or via PM will get the slot. Once the slot has been confirmed as yours, please post your Order Form.

*** Deviant Art ***
Gallery
Here you can see Taro's finished works.
And it's time to put in a shameless plug for Taro's other art applications!
If you like this art, and are a fan of breedable/changeables, read onward!
*** Empyreans ***
What: Fully Custom Changing Pet Role-Playing Game
Created and run by Taro, this little-shop-that-could is a strong year and a half old, and has a good body of dedicated, talented, friendly Role-players. Empyreans is a story of magic and intrigue set in a futuristic semi-steampunk world. Unique in that it is a full game, complete with monthly events, dice-based system and collectables familiars, items and equipment for your Empyrean. If you are a skilled role-player looking to dedicate yourself to a rich and evolving shop, please visit us!
*** Toxicity ***
What: Fully Custom Changing RP Pets
More laid back in RP setting than Empyreans, Toxicity is created by The Poison Arrow. All pets for Toxicity must be cleared with Poisey. You may request to have Taro draw your Rosin, but keep in mind, there are a number of talented artists working for Toxicity. Click for more info~
*** Gods of Styricum ***
Gods of Styricum
What: Fully Custom Changing RP Pets
Taro does occassional customs for Sephiros Immortal and her small but cozy shop. Check them out~
*** Tolahän Riders ***
What: Changing Steeds and Riders (currently an ongoing auction)
While Taro did all the Riders' lines, SkieBorne did all the Steeds' lines. They created the concept and certs and banners and monsters together and are auctioning the shop off. Taro will remain a guest full-custom artist with the shop though. So, if you'd like a unique Paddis, Laorta, Yeld or Xexim, have a look.
*** Apanje ***
What: Changing Pets
Taro was commissioned to do the line art for this shop, and did the two races of Apanje: the fluffy Ionla and the bone-themed Yenhaha. This shop is young, and just starting out, and their prices are very affordable! Check them out~
*** ??? ***
What: Winged Lizards
Taro was commissioned to do the line art for this shop-to-be, themed around the Horned Toad, the Chameleon and the Iguana, with a choice of 6 types of wings to add to the base of your liking.
