I just came back from the dentist, and the stupid novacane hasn't worn off XC

My lip feels like I got punched
I can't talked without sounding like someone with IQ of a peanut
I keep getting compared to elmer fudd and Daffy Duck

All in All


CURSE YOU ULTRA-SMALL CAVITIES

Thats how I feel whenever I have art block.

Its not much as I have no ideas; what I lack is the ability to translate them to paper.

So, you my beloved watchers, I am asking one simple thing

WHAT MUST I DO TO RID MYSELF OF THIS FUNK???

Any and all advice would be greatly appreciated.

I am having the best sweet 16 EVER!!!!

It all started yesterday, with my awesomely delicious birthday cake. Vanilla with buttercream frosting, WHAT NOW SUCKAS X3

Then, me and ma familia went to Applebee's. I got the Chicken tender and riblet (<-very deceiving title, there is nothing "let" about them) meals. Then the waiters sang me a birthday song and I got free ice cream.

After that came the first of my most awesome gifts. My sister got me a wall graffix of Link from Legend of Zelda Twilight Princess and my mom got me...

*drumroll*

A 18.5 inch Sanyo LCD HDTV for my room XD X3 XD
It doesn't happen often that I get a 100% unexpected gift. I was speechless (for the first time since I started talking -3-)
It get to use it for my DVD player, TV, and computer monitor.

In the past 48 hours, I've been sung happy birthday seven or eight times

I worked up the courage to secretly give the girl I like a hand made valentine

Was told happy birhtday more times I can count

And let us not forgot my marvelous FA family.

I got a gift pic from my FA daddy  shininglion along with hugs and other lovely sentiments from...
 Smutmutt My other daddy X3
 style
 Tsukun

All in all
BEST
BIRTHDAY
EVER!!!!

IT WILL BE MY BIRTHDAY X3
Just wanted to throw this out there one last time before the big day. I'll gonna celebrating the Saturday after with some friends.

First, we're go tubing and then LASERTAG!!!
I'm excited, and so are my friends, so I'm thinking its gonna be a great Birthday =3

I remember doing this a LONG time ago on my old account. I really feel like doing it again cause I feel like I've become more of part of that aspect on the fandom.

So, anyone who would like to apply to be a family member, just ask

Here's my family so far

Dads:  smutmutt

Aunt:  Feralise

Uncle:  xillian

Grumpy old uncle ;3  sportypup

brothers  koren-firespirit  Troc_9116  cleveartois93


Just comment with where in the family you would like to, and I'll add you =3

*note* Probaly won't postions for slaves, masters, pets, or stuff like that.

Stolen from  loralillie_Rowle

Step 1: Put your music player on shuffle.
Step 2: Post the first line or two from the first 20 songs that play, no matter how embarrassing.
Step 3: Take the songs off the list when someone guesses both artist and track correctly.
Step 4 (IMPORTANT): For those who are guessing, looking the lyrics up on a search engine is CHEATING!
Step 5: If you like the game post your own.

1:I'm still alive but I'm barely breathing. Just praying to a God I don't believe in.
2:My heart, it melts, like plastic. I fell through the whole yesterday. And your smile pulls me in like elastic. I felt my mind detonate.
3:I always knew you would come back to get me. And you always knew it wouldn't be easy; to go back to the start to see where it began; or end up at the bottom to watch how it all ends.
4:Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey! Top down in the summer sun, the day we meet was like a hit-and-run, and I still taste it on my tounge.
5:There's a telegram for you maam, and the message is for you. It say that there something bugging you and buzzing in your ear.
6:If I struck chords, would sing a song with me? If I leave town, would you leave along with me? We can fly away to outer space, or we can find a way toleave this place.
7:Over mountains and sky blue seas, on great circles, will you watch for me.
8:All around me are familiar faces, worn out places, worn out faces. (extra points who guesses which cover I'm listening to. *hint* they are on FA
9:Oh, what the hell she says, I just can't win for losing and lays back down.
10:And finally, everything worked out just fine, Christmas was saved, though there wasn't much time. But after that night, things were never the same, each holiday now knew the other ones' names.
11:There are two wonderous weeks for our winter vacation, until news year and school come to end it. So the holiday challenge for kids of all ages is finding a good way to spend, like maYBE...
12:Oh well, oh well, geus you got it all worked out so far.
13:What have I done, what have I done. Who could I, be so blind.
14:I've just seen a face, I can't forget the time and place where we just met.
15:When these feelings get put down, we'll be the best crowd.
16:Give me reason to stay; cause I don't want to live in fear.
17:Don't make me over. Now that I'll do anything for you.
18:What you got? Quit my job, flippe off my boss and took my name off the payroll.
19:Run, run like you do. I'm chasing you. I'm on your tail, I'm gaining fast you're going nowhere.
20:The only way to get what you want is to become a human yourself.

I..
am going...
to be...
a year older

My birthday is later this month on the fourteenth. Yes, I was born on St.Valentine's Day. At that time, I'll be old enought to seek employment, and get my permit.

So, I just wanted to let you guys know in case you wanted to drop off any "happy birthdays" or the like when the day comes.

I HATE NOT BEING ABLE TO HELP PEOPLE, ESPECIALLY WHEN THEY REALLY NEED IT. MOST RECENTLY,  FERALISE GOT KICKED OUT BY HER PARENTS (read about it here http://www.furaffinity.net/journal/2063369/) AND I AM TOTALLY UNABLE TO DO ANYTHING. IT JUST BOTHERS ME THAT I CAN DO NOTHING FOR A PERSON WHO SO DESERVES IT. GAAH!!! I JUST WISH I COULD DO something; ANYTHING TO HELP. It just makes me sad to feel like there's nothing I can do :(

Okay, to promote my new get to know my watchers policy, I'd like to ask all of you a question.

What are you current top 5 favorite songs.

Mine are-

1:The Ballad of Mona Lisa by Panic! at The Disco
2:Dog Days are Over by FLorence and the Machine
3:Little Lion Man by Mumfords&Sons
4:Jar of Hearts
5:Raise you Glass by P!NK

SO, what are you guys fav songs? tell me...or else >3

Waking up at two in the morning and puking for seven hours straight afterwards is one of them.

I won't give you guys all the grusome details, but as of yesterday, lets just say I never wanna barf again -_-

The worst part was the rest of the I had to stay on the couch all day, missing a midterm, and all I could consume was powerade. I slept most of the day and basically wasted a perfectly good day.

Luckily, today was better =3

found my flashdrive

Heard this awesome new Panic! at The Disco song (Ballad of Mona Lisa check it out -> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6coqkaaQYG8)

And good stuff like that.

I had a FANTASTIC day today.

I feel like I aced the the two midterms I took today

I had enough change in my pocket for a cotton candy buddie bar

I had a awesome conversation with this girl I like -w-

I drew a cool looking little turtle dude

And all this added together would have made this day perfect, until I got home.

I LOST MY FLASHDRIVE

I can't do anything about my request or trades without it

I can't upload the two pic I was going to post today

I can't scan the sketches I have done

Basically, I can't do jack squat until I find it.

*sigh* Still, I had pretty good day |3

Okay, so I just had an idea. In order to practice drawing characters with props, i've decided to open request slots for request of characters dressed like fantasy game character holding weapons.

So here's the slots, by weapon
(I might do multiple for certain weapons =3)

Sword omni-aura(persona)  ScalyGeneralMorvik *full*

Polearm alchemy205 *full*

Axe pawsthewolf

Staff omni-aura(renamon) *full*

Dagger narifox *full*

wand dejaspyker *full*

fist guard omni-aura(fursona) *full*

Chakram ex626akakeon *full*

greaves:

paper seals jasonwerefox

Being such a sorry git. Too often, I have resorted to CAPSLOCKS and "poor pitiful me TAT' shit to get attention. I need to realise that the only way to get more favs and comments is to get to know people better and improve my art.

SO, to start on the first half of that, I want everyone who to ask me one question. I will answers and ask one back. Then, we can go from there.

sincerely
~Articus

COMMENT DAMNIT!!!
I DON"T REALLY CARE WHAT IT IS JUST SAY SOMETHING.

I HAVE NEARLY 100 WATCHES AND NONE OF YOU CAN TAKE THE FIVE SECONDS TO SAY JACK SQUAT, UNLESS I HAVE MADE THAT PICTURE SPECIFICALLY FOR YOU!!! EVEN THEN SOMETIMES YOU SAY NOTHING!!! AND AGAIN, I DON'T CARE WHAT YOU SAY, JUST GIVE ME SOMETIME. CRITIQUE, HINTS, ADVICE, EVEN SOME GENERIC COMMENT!!!

HONESTLY, WHATS THE POINT OF WATCHERS SOMEONE AND RECEIVING UPDATES ON WHAT THEY'RE DOING IF YOU'RE GOING TO CARE IF YOU DO EITHER WAY

THATS ALL I HAVE SAY, ARTICUS OUT











*note this rant's targets exclude the following people.  shininglion  smutmutt  silverpalth

In exactly one month, I will be one year older. I will officially be one more than one quarter of sixty (fear my maths XD)

In other news, do you guys anyine who is taking trades. I need some characters to inspire me into drawing. So, if you know anyone, point me in their direction.

 Rihelim did this featuring thing where the first 10 people to comment get feature in this journal. The caveat though, it that you have to do the same.

SOm comment away so I can spread you to the universe!!!... or to other artist, whicherver happens first.

1:  pawsthewolf
She has a cute style and cool icons =3

2:  loralillie_rowle
Nice variety, use of color and character design =3

3:  fatal_Fox
well developed style, good consistency, overall a well balanced and skilled artist

===
"Few people are man/woman enough to openly answer any and all questions thrown at them. Are you? Prove it. Copy/Paste this as a new journal entry and answer every question you get.
The rules are simple:

-You must answer every question you get no matter what it's about, and you must do so honestly
-There are no questions that can not be asked as long as they are within reason. They can be personal, about oc's, and every thing in between. Nothing Illegal."
===



Since everyone else is doing it(geez, I sound like an ad for peer pressure X3) and also, it seems fun =3
SO ask me anything, although, try to keep it pg-15

Okay, so in the spirit of the year of the rabbit, I'll doinga couple things.

lots of rabbit related fanart, AND taking SUGESSTION for RABBIT characters to draw. It diesn't have to be yor own character, just someone who is a RABBIT.

So far, here are some rabbit I'm gonna be drawing

Momiji from Fruits Basket
Characters from the Graphic Novel Undertown (once I find my copy of it that is)
My character Jack
Kenny from Kenny and The Dragon
Alice from Pandora Hearts (both human and B-rabbit forms)

Besides those character, I need more, so suggest away.

Well, a ball anyway. Yep, this is my obligitory "HAPPY NEW YEAR" journal.

AND GUESS WHAT I"M DOING!!! A WHOLE LOTTA... nothing. Thats right, no wild parties, to noxious amount of alcoholic beverage. Just gonna stay up, watch the ball drop, and I don't know what.

So, to end this a happier note, Happy New Year and...

Moses supposes his toeses are roses, but Moses supposes erroneusly. Moses he knowses his toeses aren't roses. As Moses supposes his toeses to be.

I'll start by saying, this is not just me thinking so, its supported by the number of comments, favs, and watches I've recieved in the past few months. Based on utterly rough math, I gotten between few to none of all of those in the last few months. I wish I could believe its just cause because don't see my art, but I've checked the number of views on my art, and it lead to this conclusion.

What I want to know is, what about my art sucks. I want you people to honestly why you don't like my art.

I wanna start a paypal, so I can start getting comission once I generate some money. SO, I'm need some advice on how to start one.

ALSO, if anyone has a spare 5 paypal dollars, could you maybe consider the idea of possibly buying adoptable #3 on this link http://www.furaffinity.net/view/5004822/ I would owe you big time and would you some art in return. so, PLEASE!!! *looks at you with big tigerwulf sad eyes*
