Update on my lack of posts

The ocelot will now ramble about some unimportant things:
Hello you glorious people <3
I don't know how many people even noticed I wasn't being very active on here for a while now, but I have been MIA from FA in the terms of artwork, both by me and of me. I promise there is a good reason! Right now I have a pretty good amount specifically saved for the fandom, but instead of getting artwork, I have decided to challenge myself to save up for a fursuit, which I hope to have completed by
kilcodocostumes when they open.
When I was at Further Confusion in January for my birthday,
syber was a GOH and I was able to ask her about suiting and what makers she recommended for a beginner like myself. Originally my ambitions were for a $4000 suit that was my favorite combo of style and external looks, but I listened to Syber when she recommended I not leap right into that particular maker (she loves the maker, she just said they were 100% not for someone just starting out because of the internal complexity and it would be nearly impossible to get into and out of it by myself). She highly recommended Kilcodo, who happened to walk into the room about 5 seconds after her name was said.
After checking out her site, gallery, and prices, I was amazed and resolved that I would try my best to save every bit I could so that I could hopefully make it into the next commission window. So, to give myself less temptations for spending money, I haven't really been interacting on FA so that I don't spend money on the artists I love ;w; I still check posts and comment occasionally, but mostly it's just clearing out journals/submissions after I see them. I have many plans for commissions from cool people like
and
, and several commission ideas stored in a safe place! They will happen, rest assured, but it will be some time before I get them due to my situation :3
That about wraps it up! I don't really know what else to say so...
SPOTTYLOT OUT!

Nah, I've got a long way to go! But I did use one of your pieces of art quite substantially while drawing Leo... I feel I owe you, so you're on my list! xx
