Surprise Raffle! (Closed)
3 years ago
Yip.
Impulse new year's raffle to start the year off! Woo!
A lot of people joke about new years resolutions being silly and quickly abandoned come January 2nd, but I like to make simple, easy-to-achieve goals and think of them as self affirmations to improve in little ways. For example, 2022's goal was to try to be more open about sharing/uploading art with other people instead of being socially inept or hiding what I'm into out of fear. Seeing how I nearly doubled the number of art uploads this past year instead of keeping them in my own private collection, I'd say I hit that goal!
For 2023, my resolution will be to get commissions more frequently rather than relying mostly on YCH's for creativity. Doesn't have to be a lot of commissions or forgoing YCH's or anything, just a goal to come up with ideas more than in the past and pushing myself to be less shy about reaching out to an artist with them. And to get a head start on that, I'm gonna host a quick New Year's raffle for a commission with my character and yours!
Here's how it's gonna work:
* As most raffles go, entrants simply have to be watching me to be eligible. New watchers are welcome (unless you have a suspiciously empty account), and obviously unwatching afterwards blocks you from any further events. Don't be a dick.
* The winner will get treated to a commission with your own character and mine. The actual artist, exact scene, and SFW/NSFW is all to be determined after the winner is picked so that I can choose an artist good with the winner's species. If you win, feel free to offer some suggestions for what sort of scene you would like or what species you'd like to see my shape-shifting sona in (fox, stallion, werefox, lion, bear, etc). Just remember that I'm a lil' gay feral and I have final say in what gets drawn, so no requesting female cub Bayard or something way out of my norm. Ain't gonna happen. XD
* Comment to this journal with your own New Year's resolution for 2023 and a link to your character's ref, and I'll (eventually) respond to assign you a raffle number. It doesn't have to be a complicated goal for a resolution, just something realistic that you'd like to see or do this year. :3
* Posting a journal with a link to the raffle will earn you an additional raffle number. Make sure to tell me if you do!
My next day off from work is this coming Saturday, so the raffle will end at 1pm EST on 1/7/23 and the winner selected via random number generator. Good luck to everyone participating and may 2023 be a better year than last!
The raffle is now closed and the winner will be announced in a new journal shortly!

More than anything I hope so too, especially with everything that has already happened for you.

The person who invents a lockable wallet to prevent impulse porn spending will make a fortune off of furries.
Maybe look into getting a car on the road too :P
Anthro
Feral
Getting better job for more money for more porn is THE number one furry resolution for some reason. :V
Other than that, a little better financial balance between art and savings for the future, though I think having a partner in my life again should help that along~
https://www.furaffinity.net/view/44442979/
Taking good care of yourself, physically, mentally, and emotionally, is always a worthwhile goal. <3
My resolution is to clean and organize the cluttered basement and garage.

And thus all the furries with maid costumes poke their head out and go owo. XD
https://www.furaffinity.net/view/47088854/
That does sound like an awesome dream! I hope 2023 gets ya closer to seeing it come true. :3

Same here! I think it's too easy to lose track of things if you have a goal of "lose X number of pounds" or "write X number of pages a day". But simple things like "do better about X this year than last", they are good ways of simple self-improvement that can go a long way when you look back at it.
1) have a new years Resolution
2) complete a new years resolution
Here's my boys ref, I may have a new version very soon soo I'll update if needed!
https://www.furaffinity.net/view/44074350/
Hah, I suppose that counts as a resolution, though you potentially create a paradox in the process! xD
Hope this works as a ref
https://www.furaffinity.net/view/45535253/
Also here's the journal
https://www.furaffinity.net/journal/10427921/
It can be difficult, especially if done by yourself without aid, but it changes everything about your life once done. Here's to hoping 2023 sees this happen for you. <3
My resolution this year is to go on a vacation to visit friends and also get more art ofc =P
https://www.furaffinity.net/view/35156881/
Vacation that come back from with more art!
https://www.furaffinity.net/view/48551962/
I said a realistic goal! ...I'd joke more about that if that wasn't essentially my goal too. xD
-/- My new year resolution is to be more active in art, trying to find more time and keep it up with my artwork and be better, finally be able to buy a house and stop renting \o/
-/- My character will be https://www.furaffinity.net/view/27232265/
We need to get artwork together in 2023 buddy \o/ , let's share some magic together
Whether you win the raffle or not, magic foxes got to get together for some art soon! <3
I also made a journal: https://www.furaffinity.net/journal/10428188/
Peer pressure! But in seriousness, a straight forward goal for a better immediate future is always a good goal. Hit those books, uni!
https://www.furaffinity.net/view/49986017/
You would be amazed at what even a single act of kindness can do for a person and make their whole world a bit brighter. <3
Ooo, I love that resolution! I really hope you guys get to go! <3
To publish my e-book (that I update 2-3 times a week) as a paperback by the middle/end of the year.
The writer's ultimate challenge! I wish you the best of luck and hope to see the finished product. :3

My new year's resolution is to upload the rest of the art I received, to my gallery

Happy new year!
Bigger gallery means more for me to happily peruse! Do it! :3
Dog and wolf picture :0 cant ever have enough! Fun Idea for a raffle!
That was our goal for this year as well, but plans had to shift a little for us due to timing and work. Moving to a better location may still be a reachable goal though if we're lucky. I hope life cuts ya some slack so you can get a pupper palace of y'all's own.

thnx for hosting! :D
I hear that! After going full-time in the retail world, my hobbies went down from creative game-making and yiff writing to occasionally gaming when I have an hour to spare and barely finding time to reply to messages. Getchu a hobby that perks up your life!

Never underestimate the power (and joy) of seeing the happiness of others from something you helped do. <3
My New Year's resolution is to finally move in with my partner.
