I can do 50x50 or 100x100! Full body for ferals in either size, heashots for anthros or humanoids at 50x50 and I can TRY to do a full body in 100x100 but I can't make any promises. Not yet anyway.

I'm still stuck on a seven day work week. That means, no days off. Though I do have this weekend off due to the fact my  korth is home for a couple days, and we need our buddy time! Seriously, all work and no play makes me a dull person. Kinda bummed with life, at the same time as I'm happy with all my personal life stuff. I just miss the internet!

I'm not sure where you have all come from! And I apologize for not personally thanking all of you, but my free time is so little lately! I do appreciate it and hope to have nice new pretty things for you to see soon!

I haven't had a day off in a month now. By the looks of it, memorial day will be the next time off I get. I was supposed to have the past two sundays off, but too many problems going around in the foundry I work at causing too much delay and all sorts of fun fun fun things! So I've been stuck there. I usually get stuck grinding flash off parts, and it's killing my tendonitis so bad that I can barely even hold a pen by the time I get home. I have a few sketches I've been working on, but I can only draw for about 5-10 minutes at a time before I'm in tears.

I'm currently working on a commission I owe and the one badge and two chibis from my freebie journal a while back. Finally got my second set of markers in not too long ago, just really having trouble getting anywhere with any of it.

My rambling is done now. Thanks anyone who read this far. <3

Oh man. Been so busy, I'm stuck working 8-12 hour days, 6-7days a week. And man am I sore and tired. I basically work, come home, help the man face make an easy meal, watch tv while we eat, then sleep. I know I owe a few things, once I will try to do something Sunday morning, I have the day off, he has to work just a four hour shift so I'll have free time, though I do need to clean a bit too. ANYWAY...

Do any of you like Nightwish? Or Sabaton? I got to see them in concert last weekend! I wasn't off, so we drove an hour away after work for a five hour AMAZING show, and then got back home at like...1:30 in the morning and had to be to work again at seven hahaha! Nightwish has been one of my favorite bands for years. I was so pumped to finally see them live. Sabaton I had heard of, but never really paid much attention to. BUT HOLY HELL! They put on one of the best shows I had ever seen! Their stage presence is phenomenal! And they are just super funny guys to boot. And nice as fuck. They brought a couple little girls on stage for their last song and gave them things they were wearing, and guitar picks, and signed drumsticks. Plus, their music is really upbeat and fun. Their fans though were kinda dickish. I was trying to get one of their tour shirts at the show and kept being elbowed aside by big guys. I'm only 4'11" for anyone who has never met me. So yea...not much of a fighter lately either, so I just gave up after about half an hour of not being able to get to the table and make my purchase. I got the limited Nightwish shirt that was just for that show, and their new tour shirt...and got drunk the next day at my sisters house and tore the limited show shirt from boob to armpit trying to break a dead tree in half. Yes. I did that. So DON'T DRUNK IN SPECIAL CLOTHES GUYS. For real. It's so sad.

Ok. I guess that's about it. Nothing too exciting except that show. I really hope I can go see Korpiklaani next month...

Add me if you're there too! I'm Atroxi as usual. I like to keep things simple like that.

I haven't had a chance to play around at all yet, I did this on my phone on my 20 minute lunch break. About to head home now and play on my computer! Woohoo!

I'll be making an account finally! Hooray! So, if anyone wants the free gems for the referral code, let me know how the heck that even works haha!

Just a reminder I do also post on Weasyl: http://www.weasyl.com/~atroxi

I'm not leaving though! Not yet anyway. I've been with FA since like...the first week it existed. Maybe even the first day it went public. You know? I'm here until it dies.

Just wanted to let you all know I am open for not just the traditional badge commissions, but also other things, both traditional and digital. My traditional work is stronger imo, but also, digital could be nice for those outside the US and Canada as shipping fees can be hefty!

Just comment here or note me if you have interest. I don't really have too many set prices, so we can figure that out together. Thanks for reading!

I've never made one of these before, so bear with me. This is also subject to change at anytime. Though any changes made while commissions are already in queue shall not apply to those commissions I had already agreed to outside the new terms, unless absolutely necessary and within reason.

Contact: Notes, gryffebuncommissions[at]gmail.com

Payment: 100% up front. Paypal USD only. (I maaaay make small exceptions to this rule for return customers on larger orders, but it will be entirely case by case, and not something you should count on.)

Commission Terms:

* I reserve the right to refuse any commission at any time, even if I already agreed to it to begin with. I will send a refund for the full amount of any commission cancelled this way on my end.

* I will refund you if an emergency comes up, but only up to the amount fair for work already done. If I have not started yet, you can get the full refund, unless a nonrefundable down payment was agreed upon before hand.

* By entering into a commissions contract with me, you are agreeing that you are 18 years of age and have full control over your paypal account. Chargebacks are not cool.

* Please do not ask for things that I have in my do not draw list, it doesn't mean I am bad at drawing them, it means I do not enjoy the subject matter.

* You may repost the small watermarked version to your own gallery/ies with proper credit; that includes my name mentioned and a link back to any of my galleries.

* Please provide a clear reference image for the character you want drawn. My brain is weird at interpreting words, so the way I imagine your character from text may be vastly different from your imagined version. Also, no game screen shots. Fursuit pics are on the fence, but if it shows all your markings clearly and the colors aren't something you are eyedropper to a tee picky about, it could work.

*I will fix any mistakes that are my fault. I do provide a rough sketch before I continue(unless it is a ych or wing-it). I will await your approval. If you forgot to send me a correct reference sheet, then that is on you. I go by the reference(s) you send me. It is the responsibility of the commissioner to provide me with all necessary information to complete the commission.


Will & Will NOT draw:

Will: Cute things, portraits, any species, any race, any gender, any outfits with reasonable reference I WILL TRY

Will NOT: NSFW cub work, scat, watersports, gas, sexualized gore or snuff

Not great at, so don't expect good things: Guns, Mech, Armor, mega action scenes(Sorry! I really wish I was better at these!)


AND AGAIN, just restating that these terms are subject to change at any time, for any reason. Thank you for considering commissioning me!

1-10: Not a Furry Sue
Your character is most likely normal. They may have a few oddities or minor extremes, but not enough to add up to anything too crazy.
11-20: Maybe a little Furry Sue
Your character could be kind of a Furry Sue, but if they don't have any extremes, they could just be interesting. This is the gray area of Furry Sue-dom.
21-30: Strongly Furry Sue
You might want to dial your character down a bit. While they may not necessarily be ridiculous, they've clearly had too many qualities added on, and it could be a sign of bad taste or a desire for them to be a little too special or "extreme".
30+: Definitely Furry Sue
Your character is a Furry Sue. You should feel ashamed of yourself.

Pass it on! This one's actually interesting to do! c:

WITH SLIGHT LIMITATIONS! (Just until my other markers arrive!)
I have a second set of markers on the way...somewhere between Japan and Ohio. My first set looked like it had grays in it..but they were purples and blues. And the one that looked black was a really dark blue. That's what I get for keeping my computer as dim as possible...anyway! So, I can do many many many colors, and I could also try to do a more muted color with grey pencil over top, as I do have a lot of shades of grey in my prismacolor pencils...but that will be worried about if it comes to it!

I've wanted to play for forever~ But every time they have opened up registration it has been during one of my panic attacks that cause me to take a hiatus from the internet...when is the next one? I keep the tab up and refresh it like...obsessively. Whoops. I WANT TO MAKE DRAGON BABIES! And play with GENETICS! Like all the cools kids.

I'm gonna go sob and watch Archer now.

Details are there, and it won't be ending today! It's open until monday now! I won't be home at all this afternoon until tomorrow sometime. And I also have plans on Sunday to meet up with some old high school buddies for an Artjam. Soon Monday it is! I start my new job on Tuesday, so I'll try to get the winners drawings done on Monday too!

Go here for the free art: http://www.furaffinity.net/journal/6510583/ (Fixed the link!~)

Also, I had an interview today, yesterday I got myself all worked up over pretty much nothing. I'm not a felon and I don't do drugs, so I was pretty much hired on the spot. Need to buy steel toe boots but other than that, I'm set. I start on Tuesday, first shift. Mostly right now, I'll probably be working 7 days a week. It's going to suck a lot, but I'm going to try to get at least one thing done a day. This weekend my boyfriend actually got both days off surprisingly, so we are going to be doing a bit of fun shenanigans and fooling around for the last time that we can for a while. If I seem distant, I apologize, I do still plan to offer at least badge commissions, and maybe larger ones every now and then for people who understand my schedule and have patience with me.

Thank you all for reading this, hopefully things start to look up from here. We are still looking for a house or even another apartment for now, that is closer to where we both work, as it's almost a half hour drive into town and his car guzzles gas and I don't have one right now.

I just got in my new Copic multiliners, and I want to test them out! I'll be doing simple sketches, not first come first served, I'm going to be picky. They'll be colored lineart with colored pencil.

But you can go here for a better free art offer! http://www.furaffinity.net/journal/6507445/

I just ordered some new markers, they are coming all the way from japan, so they won't be here for about a month...I am offering badge commissions only at first, but I'm sure I'll open up more options later!

Badge types:

Headshot
Bust
Chibi
Various Themes!


If you like my art enough and know you want one, I can add you to a waiting list, heck, I can even get the sketches done now for approval before the markers come in. :3


So, if you came for the freebie, I want to play around with themed badges! I want to know what you guys want as far as themes! I have a couple ideas of my own, but I don't know if anyone would want them. That's where you all come in. Suggest to me themes you would all enjoy seeing done! One theme per person, so make it something super special! I'll choose one person once my markers come in (the estimated date is March 10th) and you will get a free badge! Laminated and shipped to you!

I haven't done one in forever! I'm not even sure how many active watchers I have left!

But, ask me things, and I will answer honestly.

Children's in quotes because I want to lay it out like a story book, with very colorful illustrations, minimal words, and a moral. But it's going to be very dark. Very.

It's going to chronicle my childhood-early adulthood. And well...there were quite a few fucked up things there.

These past nearly two years I have grown and learned so much about myself. I look at my past, and it's like I'm looking upon a stranger. I'm in such a good place right now, I feel like I found my place. My emotions have finally gone from shades of grey to bright happy things. Sure, I have a bad day now and then, but I do have anxiety issues, and those won't just go away.

I don't want to ramble too much. I'm NOT looking for pity, I don't want anyone to feel sorry for me because I had a shitty past. I am PROUD of myself for coming out on top. And I hope other people who may be going through rough stuff can possibly look on it and realize they can make a better life for themselves if they don't give up on themselves.

I haven't drawn much lately, so maybe this is what I need to kick myself in the ass?

Soooo...right before my raffle ended, like two days before, actually full on flailing around on the ground while hyperventilating and sobbing my eyes out. It was fun...my managers called an ambulance, which oh yea, it happened at work for the first time ever, because they thought I was having a seizure. The local er absolutely blows. The nurses are always awesome, but the doctors don't even try. I'm not going to go into the whole long story, just that it kinda killed my mood for a while and I withdrew from all social activities both on and offline. I'll still be drawing a winner and creating the image. I've just been so down and out I can barely bring myself to lurk most days.

I need more practice drawing backgrounds, so I'm doing a raffle from now until Monday the 29th at whatever time I wake up after my all night birthday shenanigans!

To enter fill out the following form:

Name:
Ref:
Expression/pose:
An idea of the sort of place your character could be found:

If you post a journal you get a second entry and a headshot doodle up to the first 25 people! I might add more to that, if I get them done quickly enough. Also those who pimp this will be put into a secondary drawing for a full body chibi with a partial background.


(Also running the same raffle on Weasyl, so yes that means two of each prize and 50 headshots!)

It's next week. 7 days away. And I have no idea what I want to do. My boyfriend keeps asking where I want to go, what I want to do...and I have no idea. Hahaha

I mean...I'd love to go to cedar point, but we won't have enough time for that with him working two jobs right now. I'm boring and just like to stay home. I mean, I do like going out too, I just never know what to do. I'm a bad plan maker.

 godbait is a great artist, and is doing a YCH right now! Go look! http://www.furaffinity.net/view/14578375/

I REALLY WANT A PENPAL! *dies* I have ever since I had one when I was a little girl for school. I miss it so much. Just hearing about what goes on in your life, especially if you live in another country. Sending doodles back and forth, and small gifts now and then, like candies, stickers, crafty things, plushies, what have you! Like, a permanent art trade buddy, but more than just art, you know?
