Huggable was our very first attempt at getting reference art, she had an adorable style of art that really drew the attention of Khaws and really liked the layout of the reference sheets as a whole, color, style and just everything about it was really alluring. AT the time Huggable had her commissions filled, even though she was a busy thing she took the time to answer our Notes and answer questions we had in quick response and nothing less than fine manners. she offered to put us on a waiting list for 10$ apiece for both reference sheets we were requesting, admittedly i was hesitant. she offered us first slot on her next round of commissions and Khaws took the offer.

i was a negative little thing, Huggable reopened her commissions and told us she was ready for the lump sum for both pieces, with a lump in my throat i went ahead and sent her the total. my issue with paying the lump sum was that if we did'nt like how Khaws turned out then id have already paid for my own commission before it even got started. HOWEVER, within the first week Huggable whipped out the first sketch for Khaws, and it was adored. i believe the conversation for a day and a half was: Khaws: "what do you want for dinner?" --Aphekt: "how about that ass?" Khaws: "stop that, yes the sketch was nice" Aphekt: "yea and did you see the ass?"...this went on for hours.

with Khaws loving her sketch, we eagerly awaited the colors, which came out lighter than expected and at only a word Huggable zipped on back to make the colors darker for us. the entire time keeping her Notes short and sweet. for the first referance sheet, commissioning Huggable was a trust exercise and we put our faith into a stranger who had an adorable icon.

though...after Khaws and her sheet was done, my hesitation had gone. Huggable had proven herself to be something of a light in dark strange world.

As soon as Khaws was done, my own reference sheet was on the board and Huggable had only the rantings of a mad-fox in text form. text that had been drawn up when half drunk, half dead, and just waking over the coarse of a few days. i can only imagine the look on her face when we sent her that text...she probably had the same hesitation i had had weeks prior "who the fuck is this crazy guy?" is what i imagined her face to say as she read over my text description...nine times...while shaking her head...laughing and crying simultaneously.

a quick note with a few quick questions was sent to me, an asset Huggable has is to ask clear questions so that you cannot confuse your answer..and if you confuse your answer...perhaps you arnt sure yourself?

only a few days and i had a sketch, i asked for slightly larger ears and she did such, perhaps only a minor thing but my main focus was my tail..gotta have the tail.

Huggables art is unique and special in its own way, everything about it i appreciate. so when i started thinking colors i was expecting to be pleased with my color choice. HOWEVER....just because you can choose colors and the placement doesn't mean that you wont look like a clown! it was absurd! and it was ALL my fault! i only saw an artist at her computer making a face and figuring that her client had a clown fetish..she didnt judge...she didnt laugh at me directly (i cant claim she didnt laugh at her art pad)

once realizing my horrible mistake, i tossed colors out the window, moved some and also asked Huggable to make a choice for me...shes the artist...im the crazy fox client. within the hour she had redone my horrible mistake and made a choice for herself for the best color placement of a new color which looked great. a few more changes just to make sure she would be sick of me by the end of it, and it was done! somewhere along the way i had asked her to include the cute fluffy blob thing of me which i warned her may end up a tattoo.

all in all i found HuggableHuskey to be highly adaptive, and responsive, she helped to secure a continually growing trust in other furry artists and has no doubt given other artists my business based on my completly postitve experiance with her. even in mid May when the site went down for a short while, she was back at it and quick to fire back up on all cylinders.

i wholly support commissioning this artist, to be able to build a character concept from the drunken rambling text is nothing short of true talent.

what do i recommend to you? the reader? read her terms...aside from normal things like "no toilet play" there are things like "derogatory themes" included that should make you stop and think before asking. the artist has an adorableness and cuteness to it. she does fantastic scenes of lovers making love. her fembois are just as tempting as her females, so think soft, sensual and HUGGABLE...if your looking for toilet play and this style of art...its kinda like the clown color mess...it doesn't work...dont force it.

i also recommend the FluffBlobs, you CANNOT tell me they are not the best thing to happen to furrys since the Chibi.

what would i recommend to the artist? nothing in the way of change, style is signature and its something to be proud of. i saw many poses and angles from her gallery and she seems well adapted to position, so maybe offer pre-rendered poses for clients who arnt sure what they are doing?

as always i reserve the right to edit or delete this as i see fit. i am always looking for comments to tell me what i should include to these little entries.
