Flu Season
General | Posted 7 years agoSorry for the random, abrupt silence! Flu has hit me--and it hit hard ;-; Should be back up and running, soon, though [I hope! Fever finally broke today, and my appetite finally showed up!] I hope you're all doing well! And avoiding germs ._.
Seriously
General | Posted 7 years agoHOW do you stop someone from using your characters on Twitter? BustyDane refuses to stop using Phe, even tho I've asked several times, my reporting doesn't seem to do fuck all.. I'm getting really fucking annoyed...
Side note, car broke down, so I'm kinda.. a lot afk for the weekend ;-;
Side note, car broke down, so I'm kinda.. a lot afk for the weekend ;-;
Info~
General | Posted 7 years agoA couple of things!
First, I'm still chugging along. Things get harder, then easier, you know, typical life... Nothing's been particularly crappy, I guess. I mean, I've got jury duty coming up [yay. ._. ] and I'm teaching 3 art classes over the next 8 months for kindergartners, 2nd graders and 5th graders, which I'm both excited and nervous about [don't draw dicks, don't draw dicks, don't draw dicks...] on top of work and here, so I'll be busy ^^;
I've had a couple of people ask me about commissions, and why I don't offer them, really. An easy enough question to answer.. I don't, not because I'm an asshole [although... fair dues, I am..], but because ACTUAL commissions fill me with dread and anxiety. I'm SO worried that I'm gonna fuck up your vision, that I end up... fucking up your vision. When I do QBs, I can kinda just draw whatever pops into my head.. and typically those things tend to look way better than me.. trying to make things for what you want, specifically ;-; And with YCHs, you see what you get before committing. I know that sucks, and I'm really sorry for that, but.. it's just all I'm able to do at this time /:
Second, I'm a piece of shit. Really, hear me out here, this isn't just self deprecation. I am terrible at managing my time, my inspirations are all over the place [sometimes even nonexistent], my kids and physical work take up 99% of my time, and I'll always put them first, before everything. This is why I started the whole pay AFTER delivery thing. Sure, I have gotten screwed a couple of times, but it's far, far better than having the guilt of delayed commissions weighing over me. Because I DO feel guilty about them ;-; More than just a passing guilt.. it eats away at me, every day. The things I owe are ALWAYS on my mind, ALWAYS. If I owe you something, there's not a day that goes by that I don't think about it. I feel guilt on a whole 'nother level. And when I feel that, it makes it even HARDER to art. It turns into this vicious cycle and I shut down and just.. yeah. It's better, this way. I know some don't like this.. I'm not sure why, exactly.. probably because the finish time of whatever I'm doing for you is largely unknown.. and it's easier to have an IDEA of when things are gonna be finished but.. yeah, I'm basically just a piece of shit, I'm sorry ;-;
Which brings me to my next point, owed stuff. If I owe you something, do me a favour, please, and send me a note. In two cases, it's been so long, I've lost it. In the other couple of cases, I just want to make sure your thing hasn't changed. I know sometimes we get rid of characters, or relationships change, or _______, so just.. if you're on my [thankfully small!!] list, just hit me up, please!
NEXT, someone on Twitter is RPing as my girl, Phe. I'm super not ok with this? Honestly I don't generally mind people reposting my art, as every time I've seen it, it's credited properly, so whatever, you know? But this... acting like they're my character? Doing things my character wouldn't? idk it makes me uncomfortable af. Am I overreacting? Idk. I asked them to stop a couple of days ago but.. they didn't. So.. idk I reported them which I hated doing. Not that it did anything at all. My stuff's still there and they're still using it. *sighs* I can't win for losing ._.
Streaming! I LOVE streaming! Unfortunately, I can't anymore. Which actually really sucks because.. honestly I just love doing it. Butttttt I've been running Hackintosh and I'm having problems getting my streaming software up and running. Now I'm 110% confident if I had some time to spare, I could get it to work. But I currently don't, so streams will basically be nonexistent until I've got an hour to fiddle with it. Sorry for that ;-; I sincerely miss drawing with the lot of you. You always made it so much more fun and enjoyable...
Lastly, I.. huh, I started this post so long ago that I can't remember what the last thing was [x so nevermind d: I hope this helps with any questions you may have! If there's still something, please let me know! I may take a while, but eventually I always respond to notes! [... except for that time I accidentally nuked everything ;-;] I do apologize for any delays!

So!
General | Posted 7 years agoStill alive. I consider that a win [x
I've been arting quite a bit, like 99% collab stuff. Designed a few characters. Some adopts. A new species. Finished a couple of owed things. Mostly just took the past.. goodness, I guess it's been a couple of months.. trying to build up my ability to draw again. I'm ALMOST there. So close.. I still can't go at it like I used to, my lines are shaky AF, but I'm getting there! I just want to thank you, all, for your incredible patience with me. I don't deserve it. Truly. I couldn't ask for a better bunch of furs than you, all. Give yourself some love for me <333
Things IRL have been.. sort of smoothing out. I got through a.. very bad low, recently, that I'm still clawing my way out of.. it wasn't a good time.. but I'm lucky. Or just a coward. One of those things. I'm trying desperately to reconnect with people, but.. I'm finding it really difficult. Communication feels so impossible for me.. but I try. I reinstalled Telegram, finally, but I only talk to one person.. and even that is sporadic. Plus.. I've burned a lot of bridges, being so.. wrapped up in my depression. It's hard to "wait" for someone you feel is gone, forever. I don't blame anyone for bailing.. I really don't. Still.. hurts. But it's ok. I'll get through it. I've been too busy getting the kids back in some semblance of a routine to really sit and contemplate just how alone I am... I do wish people would take the "outs" that I give them, instead of.. leading me on like everything's ok and back to how it was. It's ok that it's not ok. But I guess that's to be expected, too. It's hard to invest in a friendship with me when I'm still so.. fucked up. Idk. I'll figure it out, soon enough. Maybe it's just time to fully let go of the past and move forward. Maybe there's just nothing left for me that I knew. And that's ok. And I'll be ok. On the other side of that coin, people who have stuck by me through thick and thin.. I can't seem to stop.. hurting them. I try so hard not to... but I do, anyway. It's a vicious cycle. The harder I try not to hurt them, the more I.. hurt them.
Maybe I should just give up. foreveralone.gif
I'll be posting a bunch of the stuff I did. Tonight or tomorrow. Not sure, yet, if I'll post the adopts, or the overdue comms I did [I kinda wanna post all of the comms when I'm done with all of them? Is that weird?] I guess we'll see tomorrow.. [this took so long, there's no way I can do it, tonight x: sorry!!!]
ANYWAY, this has taken an incredible amount of time. Can never seem to say enough. To thank you. To let you know I'm alive. To let you know just how much I appreciate you.
Thank you <333

Birthday Update... Thing...
General | Posted 7 years agoSo… update, since one is way overdue…
I made it through another year. Huzzah. This is… the first birthday I’ve ever had that hasn’t been a month-long celebration.. maybe I’m just… getting too old for that, or maybe it’s because of the abysmal year I’ve had… who knows. Either way… I made it. So… that’s something.
In “honour” of my birthday, [more because I desperately need to get my mattress replaced… I’ve been sleeping on the couch for over a month and it’s fucking killing me…] all premade adopts are 25-50% off. All of them. That includes the ones that say they’re not part of any sale.
Gargoyle listed at $50, now $35
Black Tiger listed at $25, now $18
Ili Pika listed at $45, now $20
Snek listed at $45, now $20
Marble Bengal Kitty listed at $45, now $20
Dogdopts one and two, listed at $18 [+], now $10 [+]
More Dogdopts, listed at $25, now $10
Egyptian Themed Gryphon listed at $55, now $25
Tamaskan Were-Dog listed at $50, now $20 SOLD TO Pfoxen
Necrotic Blunder listed at $55, now $20
Blunder listed at $35, now $15
Mare listed at $23, now $10
Zocane Floofy noodle. $50
Rory Submissive Zebra Sherk $80 SOLD TO Pfoxen
Preston [has more art that I need to find…] $100
Even throwing this YCH in for $50 instead of $60.
I’m only about 300 away from my mattress, so if you know anyone who may be looking for an adopt or anything… feel free to share these ^^ Sale will end on Friday!
Mental and emotional state… slightly better? I’m hesitant to say that… I’m hesitant to feel that, really. Historically—this year, at least—whenever things start looking up… they end up going down. Wayyyyyy down. But… I’m holding on. Trying. Desperately.
Physically, my wrist and foot are still fucked. I’ve been going to PT but… I swear it’s just making it worse ;-; I mean, it’s not… I’ve been able to do more for longer periods of time… but it’s still painfully and horribly slow. On the plus side, I found out why I’m always getting sick [I mean, ASIDE from being surrounded by school aged children who bring back every fucking terrible germ that they can from school…] One of my kids is a carrier for strep throat. And antibiotics don’t work. Sometimes—a lot of the time—a simple case of the sniffles will present with strep symptoms. Which, thanks to the whole antibiotics not working thing, really… fucking sucks. But at least I know, now, and I can understand.
ANYWAY, working on getting everything done so I can start over, start fresh. This has been hanging over my head for FAR too long, and you’ve all been WAY too patient. So… yeah. Slowly but surely. It WILL all get done.
I hope you all have a WONDERFUL my birthday <333 Someone should… d: <333
ETA: Found a couple more ^^

So.
General | Posted 7 years agoWell. I’ve been… way more quiet than.. ever before. Sorry about that…
By way of explanation, as you know, the kiddos and myself all came down with an extremely bad flu, which lasted for what felt like forever. Finally started to recover from that… then one of ‘em [and myself, natch] got “severe strep throat”. Ok. No one else gets it, so that was a silver lining. Start getting better from that. I think I had a solid day of feeling good.. and I got it, again. Didn’t even know that was possible. But if it’s gonna happen, it’s gonna happen to me. Finally started feeling better from that, and I found out that my absolute best friend in the entire world lost their battle with cancer. I knew it was coming. We all did. But that didn’t… prepare me. It hit me like the proverbial freight train. I was… it was as if a piece of me had died and I could physically feel the loss. This is someone who’s been my friend since my grandmother’s death. Someone who has stuck by my through so many life changes. You know when you have a friend and your life takes you a different way than the way theirs is headed, and slowly you start to drift apart? That never happened with us. And our lives took us in drastically different directions. Still… they were always there. Always. Or you move super far away and just.. eventually stop talking? Didn’t happen. Through everything, ever siince I was 10 years old. They were there. Then… they weren’t. I… I didn’t handle it well. I’m still trying to figure out how to handle it. I’ve been going to therapy, and just… all sorts of things just.. trying to… cope. Following that, the kid had his surgery, and he’s just now getting better [recovery was a bit touch and go there for a while…]
So… that’s where I’ve been. I’ve had… almost zero inspiration to draw [which I really wish I had… all the sick time and surgery and everything… well, I could use the additional funds ;-;] I haven’t felt… I haven’t been able to pick up my pen. Shit, I haven’t even been talking//typing to anyone. I’ve just been… locked up in my mind. And not the sexy parts of my mind. The dark, dangerous, painful parts. Still. I need to get to drawing again. Even if it’s just some adopts. Just… something. [Speaking of adopts, just in the desperate hope of bringing money in, please make me offers on any adopts here. I’m hurting bad so.. I’ll probably accept almost anything]

So...!
General | Posted 8 years agoI kinda disappeared after that last update. Forgive me for that. I ended up getting the same thing the kids had. Well... have. This thing doesn't seem to... go away. The very high fever [mine fluctuated between 105 and 103 this whole week] that--exactly like the kids, meds wouldn't touch it--just broke and has left me feeling extremely weak. Honestly this is.. unreal. It's shocking how little I am able to do right now without shaking like a leaf. I swear, recovering from pneumonia wasn't this... difficult. But, I am recovering. As are the kids, finally. So.. this is going to be a short update, because even this much is... just too much. But we are getting better, here, and I will be back as soon as possible! The one plus side of being unable to do anything for a week has been that I've been very thoroughly resting my fracture wrist for one of six weeks, so that's a silver lining! I'm that much closer to being able to draw again :D [x
Can't Win for Losing.
General | Posted 8 years agoI just wanted to give everyone another update, I've had a lot of love and well wishes pouring in and I haven't had time to respond to everyone individually, but just.. thank you so fucking much. I ended up spending the night in the ER with the other kiddo who had a fever of 105 that would not respond to meds at all [he, in fact, still after everything still has a fever of 102...] so I haven't slept much @_@ Everyone is in good spirits, though, and smiling, and largely happy, so I'm thankful for at least that much. I've got some adopts that I will be putting up later, and whitefeathersrain is the bestest, sweetest, ever, and has offered to do some collaboration work with me while my wrist heals and I can only colour//shade, so that will be coming as well, as soon as I get the kids more stabilized and can sit still long enough to work out the details ^^;
Just... thank you. All of you.
ETA: I'll also be doing some collaboration work with PrinceWind !!! Huzzah!!!
Just... thank you. All of you.

Update...
General | Posted 8 years agoKid is doing MUCH, much better. He will need surgery... but that's a bridge we'll cross when we get there. Soon. He's gotta go to a few specialist appts and such, but yeah, surgery is the end game, there... Still. Currently, he's doing well, so... thank you all for your well wishes and thoughts and everything... just... thank you <3 <3 <3
As for me, I took the opportunity since I have basically been in the hospital for a damn week to get my wrist checked out. They did some X-rays and it turns out I did, in fact, break it again, along the same fracture as before. It's worse than it was... so... basically I am banned from using it for 6 weeks /: Which clearly presents... all SORTS of problems. Basically I'm just going to be colouring things with my left hand. So... bases, adopts... whatever. Just gotta get some money in to cover all these extra bills. I won't really have anything... new /: Sorry about that but... I really can't use my right hand at all. I've been typing this left handed for what feels like an hour .____.
Other than those things, I'm fine [x I hope you all have had an amazing weekend, and a wonderful week to follow it!!! <3 <3 <3
Update 2.0, back at the ER with a kid who has a fever of 105 that will NOT respond to meds. FML.

Sigh.
General | Posted 8 years agoMy oldest is really sick. I'm back off to the ER with him. Ignoring the obvious tremendous expense this has incurred, I'm just... so fucking stressed and worried right now. If you could send some good thoughts//vibes his way, I'd really appreciate it.
Having said that, I'm gonna be throwing up as many sketches and such as possible, cuz yeah, these bills are really piling up. Art block be damned /: Also, offers are open on basically any adopts that are available. So... make me offers. https://www.furaffinity.net/gallery...../274306/BUY-ME
Hope you're all doing well~

Notice 2.0
General | Posted 8 years agoMy recharge time turned into taking care of two kids down with the flu time... so... yeah. May be a bit longer than 3 days, after all /: Sorry everyone ;-; I'll try to throw up some old stuff every so often just so it's not dead around here...
Notice
General | Posted 8 years agoI'm gonna take a day or three to recharge. I've been making a... tremendous effort to wear my happy face, but the mask is cracking, so... I just ...need a moment.
that, and I am fairly sure I've re-fractured my wrist... gonna see the Dr. about it tomorrow...
So I'll be largely unreachable. I'll be drawing, but I'll be drawing personal and random shit to try to clear this art block. I may post, I may not, who knows...
Thank you, all, for hanging around <3 You're all the best, ever <3 <3 <3

Funny Story...
General | Posted 8 years agoI'm actually NOT uploading a bunch of Pilot's pics because of... others she was in the pics with, if ya dig. So... the spam turned out a hell of a lot smaller than I expected [x Don't worry, she'll be popping up in YCHs and such VERRRRRRY soon <3 <3 <3
Alright...
General | Posted 8 years agoSo it seems the general consensus is that I still own the characters. So.. I guess expect some art spam as I upload them. Most of it's NOT my art. I have a lot that IS my art, but it was a couple of years ago so.. is atrocious [x [shit, some of its probably still in my gallery ugh] so I'll be uploading directly to scraps.
I'm doing this, but if the person comes back and wants her and will USE her [and maybe pay for her], they'll get her back. So.. yeah.
Anyway, yeah. Incoming Pilot spam in the next hour or three, after kiddos bed time... you've been warned [x
ETA I'm still unsure on the other character, as while I didn't get paid for him, they DID get art of him, so I'm not sure about him...

Hmm... Need Opinions...
General | Posted 8 years agoQuick question for you all before I head back to work...
Let's say I had two characters about 2 years ago, one, a character that I loved and is probably a character that means the most to me out of all of the characters that I've ever made [which is... a LOT], the second, pretty close to being "me". I sold them to someone who was very close to me... but I never received payment for them... but because the person was so close to me, I went ahead and sent their files over, and they went ahead and added them to their lineup and I was ok with that, because I still had access to them, and because I figured I'd eventually get paid for them. We were besties, after all.
Well... they disappeared, completely, without a word. Account disabled,couldn't can't reach them via any other means... I've tried getting in contact with them quite a few times over the years, but no dice. Not even about payment for the two characters... just because. I don't know what happened, why they disappeared... nothing.
But recently someone asked me what happened to one of those characters... and I now am left wondering... what did happen to them? Are they still mine? Are they no longer mine because, despite never being paid for them, I handed over their files and let the other person "claim" them?
What do??? One of them in particular pains me to be sitting around, gathering dust. [Which is the exact reason I "sold" her in particular to begin with...]
Help?

Riddick Playthings~
General | Posted 8 years agoAs promised about a billion years ago, here’s the request thread for Riddick! Much like Pity's Victims request thread, this is gonna be a patreon sponsored, year-long “event”.
So uhhh... link your subby characters? I may or may not draw thembeing abused by playing with Riddick~ May be just sketches, may be more, idk. We'll see. Just be sure your character is A-Ok with being dominated, humiliated, and possibly hurt [nothing fatal or anything... and nothing bloody... unless you're into that >_>;;; ]
Riddick is *HERE*!
This "Request Thread" is sponsored by my Patreons. You do not have to be supporting me on Patreon to "qualify" to get one of these, it's open to any and everyone and it will be open all year, so I have a real shot at getting to everyone! [I hope!] Having said that, Patreon supporters will get higher quality//more content should they join in on the request thread [up to a comic page], and their request will take priority over the others!
[Please note: Aside from Patreon supporters, I am NOT going in any particular order!] Comments will be hidden after I've done them!
[Also bear in mind that at the time of this posting, I’m suffering from some MAJOR art block, so it’ll be a bit before I get back to requests. Sorry!!!]

Gooooooooood Afternoon!
General | Posted 8 years agoI hope, anyway! I hope you all had a brilliant weekend! Mine was... not... great [I know, I know, we're all very shocked at this news!] I won't go into details but... suffice to say, it was rather... unpleasant >_>;;;;
I'm going to be doing absolutely nothing today but resting, so there's that! BUT I will be opening for some pay after delivery uncoloured sketch pages [45] and Mini's that I'll work on tomorrow! [Mini's are things like headshots 20 p/c, mini refs [no accessories] 35 p/c, even mini comics [50+25 addtl char] which basically amount to a panel or three around a central image] As [almost] always, they're QB style, so you can list some hard no's and some preferences, but they're gonna be whatever pops out of my brain for the most part, so bear that in mind! Single characters only for sketch pages and mini refs, two characters max for headshots and mini comics. These will be FLATS [except in the case of the sketch pages, they're not gonna be coloured]
So comment here or note with what you'd like! [Again, bearing in mind I will be 98% afk till tomorrow!]

Burning The Candle
General | Posted 8 years ago....on, like, fifty fucking ends. Seriously, guys, I’m fucking exhausted.
I wake up at 6, get the kids ready for school, get them to school, stay at school with the youngest cuz he’s having an incredibly difficult time adjusting, take the kids home, maybe eat something if I’ve got time, head into work, stay there till at least 9 [sometimes later], come home, art for as long as humanly possible, go to bed around 1AM, lie there for a while, fall asleep around 2:30//3, wake up and… do it all over again @_@ This is quite near the definition of being stretched too thin. I barely have time to talk to my kids and loved ones ;-;
I need a break.
I could say “Oh, stop arting for a few days!” But really, it’s… the only “relaxation” time that I get ;-; The past couple of nights I haven’t even really been able to do much, I’m just so wrecked when I walk in the door .___.
So… please bear with me if I take a while to respond to notes [which I’m CLOSE to being done with the whole “catching up” thing] or comments, or… anything, really. Please don’t be hurt or offended or cross… I’m… barely keeping it together right now. Things will get better when I don’t have to go to school every day… but for now… well. It is what it is, and I’m just trying to make it work. I have to.
IN CLOSING, I love you guys, your support has made everything so much easier and brighter… thank you. Again. A thousand times a day. I appreciate you, all of you, each and every one of you!
PS! REMEMBER TO GET YOUR FILES FROM MY DROPBOX!!! I'M DOING A MASS DELETE THIS WEEKEND!!!
Thoughts?
General | Posted 8 years agoI've been hit by baby fever HARRRRDDDD, and so I was thinking about doing a YCH with Mama Bacon, sort of a... forced breeding type of deal [ETA HIM being forced to breed, not the other way around!]. [So I can live vicariously through her [x ]
Would there be interest in that?
It'd be more than just one image... it'd be the first, which would be the breeding, itself, then it'd be followed up by two or three pregnancy//lactation focused lewds, and at the end of everything, the winner would [if they desire] be the owner of the offspring [which would be a hybrid of the two and OF COURSE be fucking adorable]
I have the initial pic sketched up, and as soon as these meetings are done [seriously, work, PLZ STOP THERE'S PORN IN MY HEAD THAT NEEDS TO BE DRAWN] I wanna sketch up the others, but yeah... just wondering if there's any interest in that, or if I should just use a placeholder character?
Lemme know what you think!

General | Posted 8 years agoAlright! Starting to get organized around here! Finally, yeah? I probably sound like a broken record, but I wanna say again, thank you. All of you. Putting up with my crazy ass life and, by consequence, my shit, well—just… thank you.
A few things!
One! I’m STILL trying to go through all my notes! And more come in every day! I have noticed that luckily the vast majority of notes have been chatter—which I love!—rather than anything commission related. While I absolutely love to chat whenever I can, for the time being, I’d like to request that notes be kept strictly commission related. Not forever! Just until I finally get my shit sorted out and back on track! Eventually I’d like to set up a Telegram channel, or something where the fun, random, idle chitchat can occur [or just… figure out wtf to do with OBS… so I can get back to streaming .____.] Either way, this is NOT permanent, hopefully soon I’ll be able to say that notes are open again for random chit chat! Because I do love talking to all of you!
Two! I do actually RP, I get asked this question a LOT. HOWEVER—it takes me a long time to establish a relationship where I… can. Plus, you know, I honestly don’t have any time right now. One day that will change, I hope, but for now, the RP requests will have to largely be ignored. Please don’t be offended by this! I’m just …really trying to sort my shit out and get back on track! Don’t take it personally!
Three! Does it bother you that I use my own personal bases for my adopts? I reuse the bases so that I can keep them pretty low cost [I mean, most of my adopts have full ref sheets…] I could create a unique ref each and every time, no problem—I’m not doing it this way cuz I’m lazy—but the costs would go up significantly. Take, for example, my Crime Syndicate series. Those are $100 each, and the next part of the series may even be a bit more because so much work and research goes into them. They ARE unique. And they are priced accordingly. So… I guess my questions is… would you prefer unique lines? Or is the way I’m doing things currently ok?
Four! I’ve had a LOT of questions about Mama Bacon, and that… is just great <3 I’m SO glad that you’re all enjoying her as much as I am! A lot have asked me if it’s Ok to draw her—and the answer is yes! As long as she’s NOT put in a submissive sort of situation, it’s fine! She goes for girls, boys, ferals, the list is long! If you’re not sure about the content, ask! The only thing that gets a hard no is anything to do with feces//vomit. So yeah. Just… ask! Don’t be afraid! I don’t bite [x [I mean, Pity does, so… ] I'll upload any art gifted or purchased [with permission, of course!] and it'll stay in my main gallery, after about a week, I'll move it to scraps to keep things organized! It WILL remain in the [PITY] folder, though! So it'll always be there and loved and cherished! [:
Five! Uhh… idk [x Just got my computer fixed, so I’ll be posting some stuff, soon! <3 <3 <3 LOVE YOU GUYS!!!!
ETA: I guess five is I accidentally nuked ALL of the comments I hadn't gotten to, yet, so PLEASE forgive me if I missed something that needs to be brought to my attention!
ETA #2!
