Getting my head on straight (comments plz)
10 years ago
I've recently closed commissions for a time...not that I had very many of them, but at least here I've given due warning. This isn't to exclude art trades, it's mainly to get myself in order.
A lot of things have happened at once, but I'm trying to get my paw back in. The Happytails ad project will be completed, and the commisisons I have been late on will be completed.
I want to get some work done for the community, but it will take some doing. Here is what I have in need:
1) RAM upgrades. I need to add more memory because the fur shaders and the new diaper has maxed out my current RAM.
2) A new case. Need airflow for cooling.
3) A laminator.
sylkis commission brought it home for me...a shrinky-dink plastic system isn't going to work...it screws up the color palette.
Something that I may want to add in the future...a 3D printer. Bear in mind this will need some more work as I need to figure out how to translate the texture over onto the model, but what I hope to offer is a figurine that you can paint. I know how to operate one, I've even made enough mistakes and seen enough malfunctions on a few at school.
How do I hope to pay for all this? After the Happytails ad is done and I have cleared my plate, I will open up commissions and:
-The Happytails Package YCH.
-Restart the "Space Furs" thing. Diaperfurs in space? Kinda required, you can't get up to go to the bathroom at 3g's.
-Better badge commissions. They'll at least look like the ones you see on the screen.
-Lower price ref sheets. This will help me build the model, texture, and shader set for each person. (All data is stored confidentially...not like anyone could use the wireframes I tweaked anyway, lol.)
-Grouparts! Especially if I can get more RAM, I can model more furres!
I need feedback, comments, ideas, frankly if anyone is still interested in my art here, please let me know! Also suggestions for groupart scenarios or motifs!

Custom babyfur statues sound cool, although I would hold off on a 3D printer if you need all that other stuff. If you need some ideas for pic's might I suggest having a fur posing and showing off their own custom diaper/training pants brand


You noted me the other day about a group art for flying lessons. Once you get the necessary upgrades, we can put that plan forward and bring it to life, almost literally. ^w^
