I’m trying to get started on instagram again and have very few people over there. My username is chaiteakitten With the downfall of twitter I’d really love if people could follow me there too, I feel like I’m about to lose my entire audience. I’ll share more wips and stories etc. I’m still updating it atm! Thank you!

Also if you have a tumblr please check me out over there too!

Just a heads up, I will be opening commissions next week for the month of July, likely Tuesday/Wednesday.
This is the first time I’m having a opening here in quite a long time and will also be open on twitter. Slots sell out fast so keep your eyes peeled. Slots will be available 24 hours earlier for patrons. Patreon.com/xchaiteakittenx
My prices: https://docs.google.com/document/d/.....it?usp=sharing

Hope to see some of you there 💛

Asking because I may consider posting here more often and opening coms to FA users as opposed to just on twitter. Twitter has been a shit show for those that aren’t on there and it’s been hard for artists with all their ridiculous policies and the terrible algorithm.

Anyways, let me know if any of my followers on here are still active and I’ll try use FA a bit more.

Hey hey people of FA,

Just dropping in to post a little notice that my commissions only open now either through my Patreon or public announcement on twitter. I no longer take coms here unless I advertise. Been getting a lot of notes and wanted to clear that up.

You can follow my twitter where I post a lot more frequently here: https://twitter.com/xChaiTeaKittenx
And if you consider supporting me on Patreon I offer lots of great rewards such as bases, NSFW fan art, raffles etc. Check it out here:

I’m sure we’ve all heard the drama happening with twitter right now.

So, about 2 years ago now I migrated almost entirely to twitter, not really updating my FA as much. It was incredible there for growing as an artist, something I struggled to do here for over 10 years. Eventually I was able to live off freelancing, my dream. I even quit a really toxic job I was in to pursue being an artist full time. Life was going good, I was growing a following, I was improving and making friends and regular clients.

That’s all virtually destroyed now. Thanks to Elon Musk’s acquisition of Twitter.

My only source of income now hangs by a single thread as twitter holds on for dear life. I’m still on there, but my hopes for it to pull through at this rate are very low. As a result I’m going to focus on updating my FA more. I’ve also made a Patreon with awesome custom bases releasing every month, and a tumblr so I can try and hold on to what I built for myself.

I hope you guys will enjoy all I have coming to FA after my long semi-hiatus of the site, and perhaps will consider following me on tumblr, or even supporting my Patreon for some awesome, really affordable monthly rewards.

Hi guys,

So there has been some word going around that paypal has been permanently limiting accounts of artists and small business owners, which is very concerning. You can see the artist Vexstacy's very recent account of it here: https://youtu.be/yK_p-dSuWWk

Thise who commission art, please can you recommend to me some paypal alternatives that you are comfortable using that is easy and quick?

I have had my own issues with paypal before, and since art is my only job, I cannot risk this happening to me. Looking forward to exploring some new alternatives.

Hi folks! I hope we are all well in this crazy time.
A quick update on commissions, they are currently closed as I get through my queue. They will be opening again possibly in the next week or 2 with some price updates. I also would like to do a lot more YCHs. Would that be something people would be interested in? Let me know!

Please give me a follow @Chaikatx, it'd mean a bunch! 💛

Happy St. Patrick's day guys!
It's weird to think for the second year in a row we are spending our national holiday still locked up in our homes, no parades, no parties, no family get togethers, it sucks. Still we will make the best of it! Have a good one 💚

Hi guys!

I’ve decided to do a one off commission sale!
I’m offering 10 euro off fullbody shaded commissions, which means they now start at €35. There will be 4 slots for this sale with a turnaround of 1-3 weeks.
You can comment to claim or note me.

Slot1: open!
Slot2: open!
Slot3: open!
Slot4: open!

Hey guys!
I decided to make this ref pack I made last summer available for free as a little something for the community 💛
Get it here!

Heyo!
I'm looking to make a new advertisement for FA but I suuuuck at them. If anyone is proficient in making goodlooking ads hit me up! Would be willing to exchange some art or payment, whatever you prefer :3

https://www.furaffinity.net/view/40660068/

So because this YCH didn't sell, I'm offering it at a flat price of €55.
The YCH will be cell shaded with a very simple background. Female only.
Character must be relatively simple unless you're willing to pay a little extra for a more complex character.
First come first serve. :)

Hello my lovelies! ^-^
I'm happy to announce that I'm available for more commissions!
You can see my prices here:

Please note me if interested!

💛💛💛

I don’t know why but I’ve always assumed most of my watchers were from the US. Soo... tell me where you’re from! In case it wasn’t already known, I am from Ireland :3

Hi folks, I hope you are all enjoying the first day of 2021! Here's hoping for a better one!

To explain where I've been. Basically I took an unexpected hiatus for the month of December. You may have remembered my last journal were I spoke about my partner's sick father. Well unfortunately, he passed away at the start of December, quite unexpectedly as we thought there would be more time. We needed the month of December to just be together, to process the loss and the horrific year that has been 2020. My partner lost 2 close relatives in 2020 and suffered a car accident. With covid looming over us constantly, money stress and tragedy, we were both ending the year rather fragile and fatigued, so we just needed to be together for a little while.

Now that I'm back, I am opening up commissions again. I would like to stick to illustrations and other larger commissions. If you are interested before I start advertising do feel free to note me.

It's lovely to be back folks, I missed you all. 💛

Hello hello! ^u^

Today I finally graduated from my batchelors degree in 3D Design! It was an online ceremony but I was able to enjoy a nice at home graduation during lockdown. Not what I expected but I'm so happy I was able to graduate after such a hard year, and with a 1.1! :D
I also start a new part time zbrush course tonight, which will take up a little of my time but in the future I would love to be able to bring 3d models to my FA!
Alssooooo I'm moving to a new place so I'll be quite busy over the next week, settling into my new home and the new zbrush course, which means my commissions will be a little bit delayed. Not by too long I assurr you! I'm super excited because I will be able to turn a room in my new place into a studio for all my creative endeavors so hopefully one day I can bring my physical modelling skills on here in the form of dolls/sculptures etc etc, who knows yet! I'm just super excited for these new horizons 🥰 thanks so much for your patience c':

Hey guys!

So I'm in the middle of moving out of my current apartment into a cute little mobile home of my own in the countryside and I've realised I can finally have a pet ;A;. Ive always wanted to adopt a sweet little cat to keep me company while I spend most my time at home working on art. They would mostly be an indoor cat and will only be outside accompanied. I would love to hear some of your experiences of owning an indoor cat and any advice, tips, warnings etc you may have. 💕

Hi guys! I want to know your opinions on my price list for commissions, if you think they’re fair or if I should price differently. I am open to suggestions and critique. It is a dream to make art my full time job and I LOVE doing commissions. Truthfully I’ve been struggling for the last 6 months to find any work, applying to dozens of jobs near and far but no luck, so I’m doing my best with the skills I have! The minimum wage is €10 an hour here in Ireland for reference.

My price list is here but subject to change depending on feedback. I raised my prices for the illustrations and fullbody and shades but most of my prices have remained the same.
Price list:
https://www.furaffinity.net/view/38673706/ (I need to improve my price sheet making skills hehe)
I do ask that you please be honest! Thanks in advance <3


Also I would love to hear any tips on advertising and finding clients. Opinions on furaffinity advertising? What are your favourite socials for furry art? I have tried Instagram but found it to be a younger audience there less likely to purchase commissioned work. Also I heard deviantART has gone down hill. Let me know any thoughts and suggestions you have!

Much love 💛

Hey guys!

I have a Ko-fi account where you can donate the price of a coffee (3 euros) if you enjoy my work! To be upfront, art is my only job right now, but as commissions only come in small waves, it's tough to keep on top of things. Unfortunately due to the pandemic I have not been able to find work for months and the field I graduated into is virtually non existent now due to this years events. A small donation of 3 euro really helps me with my groceries and to help me survive as an artist until I can find work. If you like what I do or if I have created something for you in the past, please consider buying me a virtual coffee to warm my little hands, I will be forever gratetful 🥰

💛💛https://ko-fi.com/breathe💛💛

Every month I will chose a Ko-fi donater to create a special sketch of their chosen character provided that month sees more than 5 donations. (Every 1st day of the month) If you have donated, please leave a reference below of a character to potentially be chosen. After donating once you have a chance every month, each additional donation is an extra chance. Thank you
