Yeah, cause of course I still got ideas. You didnt think it would end that easy, did you?

Anyway, post saga, the story continues, but in the form of shorter "episode style" stories following Loona's involvement in Limbo as its ruler.

And because I can't resist, we so far have:

Episode One: Rebuild
Episode Two: Purpose
Episode Three: Enough
Episode Four: Heist
Episode Five: Second Chances
Episode Six: Compassion
Episode Seven: Heavenly

A lot of these will feature Loona engaging with other characters, whether they be from the Helluvaverse, or other characters appearing throughout (her and Mangle in Enough is adorable. Or Loona having to deal with the conflicting motherly ideas of Mistral and Jenna in Compassion)

So... still lots to look forward to!

If you don't like reading things in FA, check my Wattpad!

It's interesting to go through your following list and seeing just how many artists are no longer around!

.... that's it. Interesting.

And here I am still lol

Me: Goes to look up clips of Mangle on YouTube before I see it

Also me: Finds video of not pleasant thing happening to Mangle

Also also me: Suddenly doesnt want to see it now lol

For those following me back over here.

As always, just hope you enjoy what I end up posting.

Stories. Porn. The usual.

Speaking of, the Blaze and Loona saga's main story might be done, but certainly not over!

I plan to continue to write about the story post saga, as Loona figures out what the hell she needs to do with Limbo as its new ruler. Obviously she's not alone, but that's why there's plenty of chance to write little short stories styled like Helluva Boss episodes.

The one I wrote about Loona and Mangle tonight is horribly wholesome, especially since Mangle was the first one Blaze ever encountered and befriended... and also helped.

Just wrapped up editing.

The total length for Reckoning?

53,073 words at 228 pages. Longest part in the saga for good reason lol

Expect to have it posted on the 7th!

Part two is finished!

I am ready to tear out everyone's hearts and dance the tango on top of them while also bringing tears if anger, laughs, satisfaction and probably a lot of sadness!

Just need to edit it lol

If you don't use A03, Wattpad is now running too.

Though warning, sex scenes excluded on Wattpad due to their ToS.

But hey, help out by checking it out :D

https://archiveofourown.org/users/B.....Lupine/profile

Got my account, and plan to upload the first parts of the Loona and Blaze saga soon.

And the first part you can find here if you're on there. First time uploading, hope I did it right!

https://archiveofourown.org/works/73973831

Just made a Wattpad and my A03 should be confirmed by Nov 9th.

I've gotten a lot of requests to upload the Blaze and Loona saga to A03, and being its made FOR fanfiction, I'm pretty excited to start posting those stories there! :D

Just realized that I only have three more parts for the MAIN section of the Blaze and Loona saga!

Hell of A Past
Hell of a Sex Life
Hell of A Reckoning

After that, the main saga is finished! There will also be some side content for the saga that features:

Loona doing a friend outing with Kimiko
Bee's adventures in Halloween Babysitting
Bee's other adventures in finding strippers for a performance
And more!

I do still also have some other character origin stories to finish as well.

Namely:

Mistral (My OnlyFurs Mother coming Nov 3rd and another story going over her earlier years)
Blaze (The Soulmonger's Strings coming Nov 8th)
Aislinn and Willow (The Abyss Between Us, TBD)
Issira (Collar of The Black Lotus, TBD)
Absinthe (Immortal Mistake, TBD)
Evin and Kayla (Hidden Wings, TBD)
Yurei (Currently titleless)
Frost (???????)

And then we have the Blaze "meets lady" stories. Remaining is:

Highwire and Kimiko Five-Tails (Battle Royal. Done, needs cover)
Mal0 (Digital Stalker. Done, needs cover)
Jenna and Aleu (Aleu's Mom. Needs written, needs cover)
Amaterasu and Ninetails (Sunbound, written, needs cover)
Goumang (The Gardener's Weed. Written, needs cover)
Muru (Fate Would Have It. Needs written, needs cover)
Roxanne Wolf (Highscore. Needs written, needs cover)

Annnnnnnnnd I think that's it! This is the writing lineup that's coming!

Hopefully you'll enjoy them :D

With the help of the wife.

So we just saw K-Pop Demon Hunters and loved it.

Now?

Collabing on an idea of "What if Eclipse and Blaze were in this situation."

So now we have a universe where Blaze is recruited along with Trace, Evin (a male character I haven't featured yet) and Frost (a character I have revamped) to form a kpop boy band.

Only to be going against the bad ladies of.the story, headed by Eclipse and her band mates Tricksay, Alura, Star, and Casey in a bid for dark over light and the winning of a greater good.

Problem being? No one remembers who the others are for... reasons >:3

So I'm getting a good number of people between here and IB asking about the physical copies of Hellbound: The Blaze and Loona Saga.

So here's my plan. Once I get my copies (I only ordered 4 for now) and check them out, if I like the final results, I may be open to taking orders for them.

Now, keep in mind they might be a bit expensive (45.00 USD + shipping) since these are custom prints in hardcover format.

But hell, if people are interested, I'd be happy to provide come the time!

Sort of awesome people are asking for books of my canon x OC ship. Honored everyone has been liking the story so far! :D

Just finished "Hell of A Threesome" which is the fifth act, and completes the first half! Which means I can now format those parts and move to having the first book of their story printed.

I plan to maybe have three copies of it printed (hardcover, about 450 pages) which includes one for myself, one to put away and keep clean, and perhaps a third that I can maybe auction off at some point if people are interested.

Which means now the stories will fall into the "Second book" of their story from this point onward, which include:

Hell of A Holiday
Hell of A Legacy
Hell of a Past
Hell of A Sexlife
Hell of A Reckoning

So look forward to those this year!

Me: I'm gonna write a nice story about Blaze meeting Loona.

Now me: It's a massive novel consisting of multiple parts covering their meeting, her first heat, Blaze's past fling drama, pregnancy and a son, and now?

A Helluvaboss-Style villain that emerges that has followed Blaze's multi-verse hoping abilities and knows about his prior life, and shall now try to use that through their son Laziel, which results in an epic clash of good and evil from different franchises to stop the crunch of universes that would end existence.

What. The. Hell. Brain. LOL

Though it IS resulting in a badass seraphim form for Loona that I'm loving!

I've been bored of porn recently and REALLY into emotional/dark/heavy themes as of late. Like, make you sob sort of stories that involve the backstories of many of my OC's.

Might post some of that here. Not sure!

At the moment I'm tackling:

Take The Stage: Tricksay and Star's origins
LAUGH: Sunny's origins (this one is dark lol)
Mutual Ruin: Itazura and Haiyko's origins

Fun stuff!

Yeah, I just have too many pictures in binders. Seriously.

So I might be going through all the stuff I've drawn and putting together bundles of my traditional art, including the Balto stuff, to stick up for purchase.

So many years of drawing by hand lol

In looking through my submissions over the years, I really think I'm the artist who's done the most Balto porn (easily over 100 pictures)

So many things with Balto, Jenna, Aleu and Trickster and now even characters created between them. And way more to come >:3

I've been experimenting with simpler methods of shading. You can kinda see it present in the new Balto and Aleu picture and a lot of it in the picture of Sunny.

I'm really enjoying the simple shading and even the cartoon style of things. They're faster to make and I dunno... I like the results?

So I'm going to mess around with that a bit more coming up. Again, heavy detail looks good and all, but it can wear out at times and I'm having fun mixing things up.

Now that's not to say the more detailed stuff is stopping, but variety, right? It's not like I haven't been doing this for over 20 YEARS LOL

Gonna try and do something I've wanted to do ever since I started drawing... which is draw one massive picture featuring all of my characters together!

Will it be easy? No. Will it be time-consuming? Damn right. Am I excited? Very!

Always wanted to see everyone in one picture together and I feel I'm finally in a position to make it happen lol

Looking to be about 15 characters if I count correctly.

So, with certain circumstances and action being taken, I'll be removing most of my new submissions of my own free will and migrating them.

All new artwork will now also be posted over to my new Inkbunny, and FA will function...as it did for the last several months. A place I occasionally log in to check once a month.

Sadly, I'm not surprised by the choices that were made, as I've encountered this in the past before. I won't, however, go into ranting details.

So yep! All new artwork will be posted to Inkbunny from now on. Feel free to follow there. In a way, a new journey is always kinda exciting. Gotta climb the mountain to see the vista, after all. Cheers :D

https://inkbunny.net/BlazeLupine

Break glass!

Or in this case, a backup plan :D

With the possibility of unforeseen circumstances interrupting my posting ability here, I have created an Inkbunny account, which you may find below:

https://inkbunny.net/BlazeLupine

I'm well aware of the content allowed there, but truth be told, I'm simply looking for a place where I can upload what I do without having unneeded anxiety attacks.

Furthermore, all content uploaded there (and should the fates allow here) will now be coming with a disclaimer in regards to the backgrounds I use within my art unless I myself specifically make it. It will basically consist of "The background used may or may not contain Ai influenced material. I will do my best to seek out backgrounds that do not use it, but in the event it does against my knowledge, my bad." And looking into Inkbunny's rules, it'll be tagged as such simply to cover my behind and to abide by their rules should that be the case.

I also plan to start saving the linework of my WIPs on occasion as well, just to have SOME proof that I'm the one working on them. It's sad that Ai has made such a thing a necessity, but starting that extra step again is better than not posting at all, I suppose.

I'll work on getting that profile fully setup in the coming days, but there's a link until then, woo!

Insert Pacha from Emperor's New Groove "just right" gif here.

Having a great time with it so far. Makes the six year wait feel totally worthy...also makes me realize how poorly made Scarlet and Violet (I did still enjoy them) were, oof.

Come on, Pokemon Company. You can do better than this. Hopefully you can show that on the next gen.

Or at least a small part of it, because I don't have the time, nor the desire, to sit and screencap/record my entire process of fudging around on Photoshop. Eyes are the most frequently brought up.

So my eyes are Ai generated because "they're blurry" eh?

Well, here's my step by step to address that one:

https://www.furaffinity.net/view/52127919/

Hopefully we can stop going down this road now. People need to understand that inconsistencies do not = fake. Blurry doesn't = fake. The only fake parts about the pics I make are the backgrounds, which are ripped from stock lots, torn apart, resaturated and blurred until it looks "good enough" to fit what I need it to fit, and I've been doing that since I started digital.

Now shut up and move on already, because I'm tired of now getting notes of "Is your work really yours?"

Replying to this here, because e621 wouldn't let me comment on there since I just made the account.

https://ibb.co/G33LSLB

Ahem

1. Yep! The eyes are blurry. Why? I use the smudge tool. Despite new techniques, I still use old ones. The smudge tool blends well enough, but has the side effect of, gasp, making things blurry.

2. The one thigh is darker because I made the brown of Balto's ass show, where as on the other thigh, I made the gray extend too far. Looked okay at first, but eh, messed up lol

3. Anatomy error! Oh no, how dare I?!

4. Anyone who has watched me long enough knows hands and toes are my weakest point. Especially top views. And yep, the toes on Balto aren't even. I make anatomy errors, who knew?

5. More blurry lines because more smudge tool. He's a good friend of mine and we hang out often. I'm still new to layers and often forget I'm using them. My process used to be sketch, outline, paint bucket tool, outline, dodge/burn, outline, and all on a single layer. I'm still learning, but when it comes to fixing mistakes, I'm lazy lol

At the end of the day, I do art for fun, and for free. I've learned a lot, but at times I just don't care for perfection and the quickest fix is often the first I go to.

So yep, the eyes I make are sometimes blurry, my lines are inconsistent at times, and I'm gonna make anatomy errors. Get used to it. And this is the last I'll speak of it. Curse the fact I need to be one of those artists who likes to check how their art does on other sites LOL

We're in an age where things are changing, and accusations get flung around like pies in the hands of the Three Stooges. I was waiting for a comment like this:

https://ibb.co/58sssTv

So let's address it :D

Yeah, I've not drawn in months. Prior to that I hadn't done much in nearly a year. Why? A lot's been happening, both good, and bad. Also, I was no longer happy with my style. I was stuck in a rut that was never changing as self-taught methods weren't allowing me to improve. Wanna know why my art looked the way it did? When I moved to digital, it was not only being drawn with the mouse on my laptop, but I WASN'T using layers for different lines or color shades. I WASN'T using actual shading techniques either. I used the burn and dodge tool, which can be akin to using Comic Sans on your professional design project.

You know what's an amazing help? Not only getting a tablet, not only having other art friends teach you things, but learning new shading, drawing and coloring techniques and spending a year in a cave (or your home) applying and actually learning things. I wanted to evolve. But nowadays, you gotta deal with this Twitter mentality of call-outs without proof.

"Their art looks different OMG ITS FAKE!!!"

Yeah, only thing I can't take credit for half the time are the backgrounds. I find stock images I like and alter them a lot since I work full time. Anyone ever look back at an artists' (mine especially) first works? Ever notice how it usually, like, I dunno, improves or changes as they learn new things? Yeah, it happens?

Other than this, I don't care to defend myself any further. I do art for fun in my free time FOR free. If you like it? Cool! If not, totally your right. But don't shout false claims when you're bored. I don't have time or desire to battle anyone over that :D
