Moving! + a thank you
Posted 9 years ago
I know it's kind of short notice but I wanted to give you all a heads up that progress on commissions will be a little slow for a couple days. We finalized all the paperwork yesterday and get the keys at 10 am today. I'm so excited. This new place is just what we needed. My partners been busy looking for work after loosing his job and I've been in a depressed rutt myself so this change is something we both needed to get back on our feet again. I cannot wait to be able to produce more content for you guys now that I'll have an office/studio of my own. ;u;
It's gonna take us all day to move then about a day and a half ish to unpack and then another day to clean up the old place so we can get the full deposit bacm, but I should be back on track and streaming again by Wednesday at the latest.
Finally, I cannot thank you all enough for your continued support. It's been my dream for 6 years to be able to support myself by doing what I love and over the last year and a half I've finally reached the point where I can fully do so. If it wasn't for all of you supporting my work over the years none of this would possible. Thank you all so much. I'm honestly in tears just overwhelmed by the reality of it all. <3 Im planning something nice to show my appreciation for you all that I hope to reveal by the end of next month on top of the twitter raffle I'll be hosting soon! I'll post a journal about it as things finally settle down so keep an eye out for that! ;u;
Oh! also a massive shout out and thank you to both Poofykitteh and Nycket for helping us with the physical move today. You two are both absolutely fantastic people and this would be a headache and a half without you both. <3

We'e moving a week from today and we literally just found out we need to get new brake pads on the car and all our current funds are tied into deposits and such for the new apartment. So im opening for a few head shots to hopefully lessen the financial blow from getting them replaced xux

Secondly! Im half way from getting 250 followers on twitter! once the goal of 250 is reached i'll be hosting a give away for the chance to get a free flat colored piece!

general reminder
Posted 9 years ago
Something that I shouldn't have to say, BUT HAS BECOME AN ISSUE APPARENTLY. (I'm tired, sick, and have no patience to sugar coat anything. fight me)
That it's 1000% not ok to hit on someone's partner when they've publicly stated it's a closed relstionship. It's also 1000% not ok to push for someone to be your caretaker when it's been stated repeatedly that the family group is a closed one aswell. I've already had to block one user on multiple sites for constant harassment towards myself and being obsessed with my partner and I'd rather not have to do so to anyone else. This isn't directed towards any one person, it's just something that's been going on for a while and I'm getting tired of being made look like the bad guy for things being closed. I'm not asking for a whole lot, just some common sense and decency towards others. Thank you for reading.
I'll probably delete this in the morning. v~v

Posted 9 years ago Opening for three flat colors or shaded pieces that i can get done before my trip to DC on the 21-29! (working on that big group pic a little at a time too so dont fret any over that piece. everything's on track to being completed before the 20th of next month c: )

By the hour stream commissions?
Posted 9 years ago
I was wondering if there'd be any interesting in getting stream commissions where you pay for a time slot and i get whatever i can done in the amount of time paid, could be lots of headshots, or a shaded piece, or sketches depending on what the commissioner wants and how much time they can afford to pay for and spend in the stream. Id have a timer set up in the corner to keep track so no one gets shorted, and id offer to extend the time by 15 min or so for a small fee if they want the time used for further detailing or refining.
Would you be interested in something like this?
What do you think would be fair pricing?
What days work best if interested?
What time of the day would work best?
Examples of some previous stream commissions:
http://sta.sh/2252tnu3jf9f
aprx time taken is in the description of each image
More or less just gauging interest to see if this is something people may want me to offer sometime. vuv

Christmas wishlist? :3c
Posted 10 years ago
Ive seen a handful of people posting these so i figured why not post one myself. :3c
Art wise:
Id love artwork of either atlas or apple (bonus points if it includes kota-cub or damion_wolfycub <3 ;o; ), From p much anyone on my watch list or even from people not on my watch list. Im honestly not super picky at all. I just haven't had the opportunity to commission any art almost all year other than a few badges at MFF so it would be a nice surprise.
Refs: Apple- http://www.furaffinity.net/view/13358574/ Atlas- http://www.furaffinity.net/view/17956463/ Damion- http://www.furaffinity.net/view/18219942 Kota- http://www.furaffinity.net/view/12332019/
Physical goodies:
I made a small amazon wishlist (i hope i set it up correctly as this is my first time using amazon sos) https://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/.....m_wl_list_o_0?
Not on the list, i really would love amibo cards for animal crossing (ive got duplicates i could trade too if youd like)
And stickers! i want stickers to put all over the apartment >u<
Note or email me at FruitCupPup @ Yahoo . com if you need an address to send anything <3
that's about it. Im a simple pupper to please. heh /u\

Back from MFF! And back to work on commissions. c:
Posted 10 years ago
So MFF is finally over and we got home last night, the con as a whole was a load of fun. I met so many new friends and Got to meet a ton of my supporters in person. It was a pleasure meeting those of you who stopped bye and i hope to see you all again next year <3 I worked in the artists alley most of the con and my commission spots were literaly snagged witin in minutes of opening which was a massive surprise. You all were great to work with and i have three pieces i have to mail out since i got stress sick the last day of the con and wasn't able to get them out in time, I'll be sending small gifts to make up for my slow work and for making you wait. Ive definitely figured out a much easier system to keep organized next year that should allow me to keep on track and have everything out before everyone takes off.
It was a total pleasure meeting
and
just to name a few. Talking with and seeing everyone made the con so much better. Last MFF was a terrifying experience since it was my first time at a major con and i literally knew no one other than damion, But this year i was able to carry my own and honestly it was the best feeling ever. I feel like ive finally found my niche in this community and im content with who ive become not only as an artist online but as the person ive become offline aswell. I definitely wouldn't have become the person i am today without this community as a whole so thank you all. You've allowed me to become more confident and independent than i ever though id be able to. ;u;
Im gonna focus on coloring cherubs badge today and then Toboe's full body badge and then ive got a head shot badge that i'll complete tomorrow. Then Back to digital commissions again! Im gonna try to see if i can find pics of the badges i did at this con to upload since most of them i didn't get good pics or scans of before i handed them out. So look out for those being uploaded possibly. To those who snagged digital commissions from me before i took off from MFF im planing on clearing my queue before Christmas so keep your eyes peeled for those. Im gonna try to get everything out in a timely manner and i should be reopening either right before or right after Christmas for those who are waiting on getting a commission spot that's the time frame that the'll be available again in.
thanks again everyone for an amazing con experience and for everyone's patience with my lack of uploads since i took off last week. <333
MFF Badge Commissioners please read!
Posted 10 years ago If you ordered a badge for pick up please note me for my cell# to arrange a meet up time/place or shoot me an email over at FruitCupPup[at]yahoo.com since that's also tied to my phone. I'm already at the hotel so I'm ready to deliver them whenever. As a heads up I will be busy in the artists alley once the con starts so the sooner i can get them to you the better! c:
See you all there <3
Closed thank you!
Posted 10 years ago Opening for some general commission spots since ive thinned my queue down again, By tonight i should be down to only owing 5 things, maybe 4 if i stay on top of everything and dont get distracted. ;u;
Open for everything but headshots!
Just as some forewarning I'll be gone from the 2nd-7th of december attending MFF so i wont be posting too much other than traditional badge commissions i'll be taking during the con. Commissions taken this round wont be started until i get back!

small delays - family death-
Posted 10 years ago
kind of a negative journal but I just wanted to apologize for delays in commission work. im trying my best to get the Halloween pieces I owe out before the 31st. Once those are done normal commissions will resume and will be completed in the order in which payments been received. Progress will be a little slower than normal though, I was informed on the 24th that my grandfather was being disconnected from supportive care on the 26th. Unfortunately today i received a call that he passed away this morning at around 8:30 am. Im trying my best to process all this and im enraged at my mother for never letting me say goodbye. I'm not sure if i'll be able to afford to fly to his memorial service right now and it hurts tremendously but I'm trying my best to figure things out. I may try to do a donation commission stream so i can fly back to Arizona for a few days but im not 100% sure since my desktop isn't built to handle streaming. Anyways, please be patient with me on commission pieces if you would. I'll try to get back to my normal turn around time as soon as possible. thank you.
If im able to make it to the memorial i'll definitely keep you all upto date for when i'll be flying outta town and for how long.

This has happened a few times now and im honestly starting to get really frustrated. Please please please dont upload my work to other sites unless you were the person who commissions that piece. Im not Ok with my work being uploaded to facebook groups, im not ok with my work being cross posted to InkBunny ,sofurry , E621, myabdllife or anyothersite. Im not ok with my art being included into youtube videos, vines, or instagram. Please have a little respect for not only the artist but my commissioners aswell. This has made a handfull of my commissioners uncomfortable because thats their character just being spread around carelessly. So please please please for future reference dont reupload my work on othersites unless you were the person who paid to have said image drawn. ;;
Thanks for reading..
