Hey everyone! So I’m finally doing it! I’m gonna be opening some pixel art commissions!

Examples of what’s open and prices will be on my Commissions Page!

Since it’s Halloween/Inktober I’m also doing a little deal! With purchase of a full body RPG sprite you also get a FREE Halloween costume for your character (within reason! X3) if you use the promo code SPOOPTOBER when commissioning me! Obviously this can only be redeemed up until the 1st of November 2018!

Now anyway, here are the rules!


ChesterBun’s Commission TOS

* If you are interested in commissioning me, send me a note on FA, a DM or Twitter, or a message on Telegram or Discord. Please comment with what you want, a reference, and any other relevant info (e.g. costumes). If it’s something I can do, I’ll then send you my PayPal and once the money is through I’ll message back and I’ll start!
* Money MUST be sent before any work is started.
* Please allow up to one (sometimes two) weeks from when payment is confirmed for the work to be completed.
* Commissions are done on a first-come, first-served basis.
* I reserve the right to cancel any ongoing project for any reason, provided any funds spent are returned the rightful owners/commissioners.
* Commissions are slot-based, so if all the slots are taken you must wait until space is freed up.
* While copyrighted original characters are fine, I reserve the right to deny drawing any sort of original character based off any sort copyrighted work.
* Complicated characters or characters wildly different to the norm will be considered on a case-by-case basis. (For pixel art please understand that fine details will be lost, and complicated characters may not be possible).
* NSFW content will not be accepted for commissions.

I'm freaking out a bit because tomorrow I'm going to Little Big Land, which is a littles event in the UK, it's my first time doing anything like this so naturally I'm nervous but it should be good. I'm going with  AlfieRubuncle and  FelixLionheart so I'm even more excited! Is anyone else on here who lives in the UK going? It would be great to meat you :3

Sooo, cause there were enough people, there were two winners! Congrats to
number 9 -  Ace6159 (who nominated  drebingrey39
and number 11 -  AlfieRubuncle (who nominated  Yookey)

woo!

Streaming and doing PWYW sprites!

Gonna be streaming with the wah  yookey and working on pixel thingies for competiton winners/friends/anyone who wants one (they're PWYW for a sprite with a choice of one costume and an FA icon if you want one :3)

I'll probably put some sort of stupid music on :3

Enter for a chance to win free stupid pixel art! :3

(closes 1st May)

Holy butts, I got 100 watchers! That's craaaaaazy! To celebrate, it's competition time once again! Here are the details:

The prize for being picked is a front-facing RPG-style sprite of your character, and you will receive one base model and one outfit.

Some notes:

* It's kind of a fixed pose, so characters who deviate too far from the base pose may be refused.
* It's a sprite, so only a certain level of detail is possible.
* It's just one sprite per winner (but two outfits)
* Eat your greens.

The usual rules apply:

* Leave a comment below containing a reference picture and say something nice!
* The random criteria for this competition is you must also leave a recommendation for a film, song or recipe, because trying new stuff is fun :3
* If you do both of these, you'll be entered into the raffle for a chance to win!

You can gain extra entries by doing the following:

* Following me (+1)
* Nominating somebody other than yourself (+1)
* If you've entered before but have not won (+1 for each time)

More slots for winners will open as more people enter, for every four people who enter, another slot will open.

Competition ends in two weeks (1st of May)!

Good luck floofs :3

Ahhh somehow I got 100 watches so i guess competition/stream again soon!

Arbitrary bonuses this time are gonna be bonus entries for anyone who entered before but wasn't picked, and to enter everyone has to post a recipe or a song to listen to or something. I dunno it's like half past 2 in the morning here. feel free to enter here but i'll probably make a separate one where I word it properly soon too :P

Hey guys and not-guys! :D It's time to point out people who are cool!

Today it's  _1IPUPPY_ They need help at the moment, and their commissions are super adorable <3 I'm getting one! Wow <3 Awesome!

Woooo!

Hey everyone! It's competition time again! I've been bored recently and wanted to make some more silly spriteydoodles, so why not get some preactice in while making people happy! I'm not one for normal, sensible competitons so there are gonna be some stupid rules! :D

So, first off:

The pose/sprite is either gonna be

this

or this

depending on how I feel. Probably the former unless the winner is somebody who already has one, in which case they get the latter! You'll get a nakie sprite and one outfit

Some notes:

* It's kind of a fixed pose, so I won't really be able to do anything that strays too far from the usual anthro furry thing
* It's a sprite, so only a certain level of detail is possible.
* It's just one sprite per winner (but two outfits)
* Eat your greens.

So, here are the stupid rules!

1) Enter by leaving a comment below, there are two conditions!
One: You must include a reference picture (unless you don't have one)
Two: Let's make this interesting. You also have to leave in your comment some advice or random trivia for me!
For example, did you know that during the men's marathon at the 1904 Summer Olympics, only 14 people managed to actually cross the finish line due to poor planning, weather conditions and many hilarious mishaps? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Athle.....n%27s_marathon
If you do both of these, you'll be entered into the raffle for a chance to win!
2) You're ALSO able to get extra entries by doing the following

* If you are following me, you get an extra entry!
* If you nominate someone instead of yourself, you get an extra entry!

3) There will start off being just one place to win, but for every five people who enter I will add an extra place! So wooooooo!
4) Don't be bad or you might be disqualified!

Currently at ⌊(14/5)⌋+1=3 prizes!


Alsooooo, competition ends....Fridaaaaay? Maybe?

So uhhh, yeah. If you have any questions, let me know!

 Lucca is doin' a stream to raise money for  mikey-the-little! Come join in and buy stuff 'cause her art is super good! *points to icon*

But srs, the money is going to a good cause an' stuff :)

Links here:
https://picarto.tv/Lucca
You can come buy a chibi or you can donate here: https://www.gofundme.com/help-mikey.....nances-settled

So my bestest friend  manly-pink and his family are having some real money problems at the moment, and it'd be a huge help if anybody here could spare even just a little bit of money or even just spread the word to everyone they know. If they don't raise enough money they might lose their house and that's an awful thing no family should have to go through.

To try and raise some more money, I'm going to start doing pixel art again (examples of which you can see in my gallery) in a sort of pay-what-you-want style, so if you or anyone you know might be interested in them and wants to help out on the side, let me know!

The journal Pinky wrote is here:
http://www.furaffinity.net/journal/8030121/

It's  manly-pink's birthday today! He's a whole 1 year old! Go wish him a very happy birthday and give him a hug (and some cake) because he's really really super wonderful <3

.:Step 1:.

Make a post in your journal containing your list of 10 holiday wishes.
The wishes can be anything at all, from simple to really big.
The important thing is, make sure these wishes are things you really, truly want.
If you wish for real-life things, make sure you include some sort of contact info in your post, whether it's your address or just your email address where folks could get in touch with you.

.:Step 2:.

Surf around other lists to see who has posted their list. If you see a wish you can grant, and it's in your heart to do so, make someone's wish come true.
Sometimes someone's trash is another's treasure, and if you have a leather jacket you don't want or a gift certificate you won't use--or even know where you could get someone's dream for free--do it.
You needn't spend money on these wishes unless you want to. The point isn't to put people out, it's to provide everyone a chance to be someone else's holiday elf--to spread the joy. Gifts can be made anonymously or not--it's your call. There are no rules with this project, no guarantees, and no strings attached. Just...wish, and it might come true. Give, and you might receive. And you'll have the joy of knowing you made someone's holiday special

.:Step 3:.

My list!

1) To be able to make some more real, lasting friendships with nice people who I'm friends with because of who they are, not just what they are.
2) For more people to be interested in getting little spritey doodles from me
3) For more people to tell other people they're lovely and awesome and appreciated
4) Inspiration for other things to draw/sprite for people and myself
5) An art trade kind of thing where I can do doodles for someone and they can do something back :D
6) People I'll be able to cuddle one day, more people who make me feel okay and happy to be me
7) Confidence enough to reach out to others an' maybe one day meet people and/or go to events o:
8) This is a silly one, but I'd really enjoy people sending me random useful advice, trivia or other things!
9) Ideas for little arts and crafts projects I could make, I like being creative but I never do it and I'd really like to make things I can look back at!
10) I also made a really dumb amazon wishlist that's full of cheap stuff that would be useful, but I don't really know how to share it and if it's yanno, safe an' secure and stuff!

So, let me start off by saying that I'm not even American, so I've never celebrated Thanksgiving before, but since I've been here there are a bunch of people I just want to say thank you to for being awesome.

So in no particular order, here we go:

 codyfops - One of the first people I ever spoke to here, Cody has helped me a lot, just like I know he has many others. He made me feel welcomed and was always friendly and willing to talk about all sorts of stuff! He also pointed people towards me and faved stuff I did too, which is super sweet. Basically, if you haven't met Cody, do. He's wonderful and sweet and kind, and will help you, especially if you're new here! Also his storytime streams are...wonderful. Wow <3
 littlefurs - Where I first got to talking with Cody and started finding out how to make friends! It felt safe and not creepy and it was really inviting to see I could just message Cody to ask about things, and I'm so glad I did!
 thecubbycorner - The best chat group I've ever been a part of, even if I'm in the wrong timezone :P This is a wonderful place to go if you're looking for funny, sweet, cool people who are a blast to hang out with, and it where I first met someone very special to me...
 manly-pink - Where do I begin with you, Pinky? I first met you by pure chance in that chatroom, and we started talking on Skype, and talked all night until you had a power cut. Since then, we've talked almost every day and we've grown so close. You've helped me with all sorts of things, with self-acceptance, confidence, my feelings, everything. I now get to call you my bro, and I get to give someone all the love a bunny has in his heart. Thank you so much Pinky. Words don't describe how I feel about you <3
 lilbagel - Iiiiiiit's Bagey! I was lucky to catch a Bagelbutt during a Codystream once, and i'm really glad we started chatting. He's my favourite silly floppywoof, and his nicknames and silly jokes always make me giggle. Bagey, you've got a great personality and you're tons of fun. I'm glad we got to talk a lot before your work shifts changed as well. You're awesome and a silly goofball :3
 brock-omeles - Oh man, Brock, you're so nice. Brock was the person who made my first ever reference, and it was a really cool time - he hadn't streamed for ages, and I got to see it get made (you still have a good voice for radio Brockeroo!), and he had it in his bajur heart to do it for me as a gift, that's like...wow. Wow. Brockoli here is a great artist and also a great storyteller, so definitely go look at his stuff! He even started doing a comic based on one of his (really reeaaally good) stories! What a cool bajur :D
 chuziku - Chuz, you're also a super good artist, and all the characters you make are all unique and interesting and fun! The thing I like a lot though is that you opened up a Minecraft server for lots of cool people to play on, and work together and make a little community. It really made me smile seeing things come together and it really made me feel part of something. It was great seeing and chatting with people I'd seen on here and to see them in a new light, and it was just a great adventure :)
 erin-cloverfox - It's Eriiiiin! Erin, your art is some of my favourite ever, you know that? It's always so sweet and innocent and adorable, and that fact you do it all out of love makes it even better, although it does make me wish I could give you more in return, hence why I give you all sorts of gifts (although I also give you them because you're awesome and you deserve them! You're also just great and silly and really lovely! :D
 avatarsong - A silly pupper. I just wanna thank you, because I always see you comment on pictures of me, and the fact that you like the pixel thing you did for me enough to put it on your profile page AND in a Telegram sticker pack makes me feel really honoured. Thanks for being so nice!

---

So that's me being all gushy and silly. What about you guys? Are there any people you're thankful for? Why not let me know in the comments? I'll follow this up with another comperaffletition along the same lines, so stay tuned for that

 Nyogart needs your help, please read her journal below. She's the person who does all those super awesome icons and I'd say you should get one anyway but definitely get one now!

Just felt like writing a journal for some reason I guess, just to say hi to everybody and say a few things :)

First off, sorry about being lazy! Progress is finally being made on the competition winners' stuff, I'd say I'm about a third of the way through now, and I'm planning on uploading them once they're finalised and people are happy. A few things came up here and there but mainly I just completely lost motivation to do anything other that sit around and do nothing for a week or two, but I'm feeling better now, sorta.

Also, it's definitely happening now, I'm getting interested in getting more art and stuff of me an' the people I love being cute and sweet and stuff :P So I guess I'll explore that some more sometime, although I do seem to be a massive cheapskate, so we'll see what happens. I suppose I'm also interested in doing my pixelly thingies as an "art trade" of sorts, but I don't really think they have much worth compared to real art by real artists.

Also this is really random, but I was considering getting one of them there furry-specific twitters. It's funny, I've never had a twitter because I've never been one to think people wanna hear me talk about everything I do but well...you guys have helped me feel a little more important, especially since a bunch of you guys seem to be people who would wanna talk and fling messages at each other and stuff. So I might do that one day :O

That kinda brings me to the next point, friends and stuff. Over the last week or two I started feeling really lonely when people are away and I dunno why and I was wondering what's a good way to make new friends with cool people here? I'd really like to chat to more cool people but sometimes I guess I worry that I'm being weird or annoying by talking to people suddenly, but yeah. I have a Skype and recently joined the new bandwagon that is Telegram, and I guess there are people on my friends list that I don't talk to enough, but I guess I worry I'm being annoying or weird by saying hi, which is super dumb. But yeah, wanna say hi! Do! Because apparently I won't! :P

Last but certainly not least: real life big stuff. So since I've been on here I've been on a gap year of sorts since finishing university to decide what I wanted to do next and get a few things done and unwind after four years of working my butt off. But now, I don't know what to do. I have some decent qualifications, but I don't really know what relevant jobs I can get out of them, or whether I should go back and study even more because I'm a huge dork. I know this is a really random place to look, but I guess if anyone has any advice or tips that'd be greatly appreciated. Again, friends are cool! :)

Anyway, wow, that was really long. Uhh, have a thing:

https://www.youtube.com/embed/MLp4nb6atDE

Aaahhh how do you embed these!?

I'm lazy and I suck, here are the results!

1st Prize:  SquishyPaws,  bleps,  SweetHeartSerpent
2nd Prize:  rouroni,  wolfymewmew
3rd Prize:  sinistersnivy


So um, yeah, these people, or the people who voted for them, note me, or I'll note you and send me your references and stuff :D

Also the people who won first prize, pick a third person too :D

Whoa! So to celebrate getting 500 views/50 watches/running out of people to sprite I thought I'd do a little competition! It's a competition with a stupid twist! I'm giving away pixel pictures, but you have to choose someone else to be the theoretical recipient of this prize! But it's not completely stupid, just mostly!

Here's a picture of the sort of thing you'll be getting: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/20860656/

So uh, here are the rules!

The Rules

1. You have to enter by commenting on this journal
2. You must enter someone else in your comment. They can obviously enter too and choose you back.
3. Only one vote per person, BUT if you create a journal linking here, that's another vote you get! :D
4. If you already have a pixel picture of you and you get picked, you can choose another person, another character or get more costumes or stuff! :D
5. The competition ends um....sometime on the 20th, sure why not.

As for the sprites themselves:
1. You'll get one base sprite and up to two costumes (see my previous examples), or up to two different forms/ages
2. Obviously doesn't have to be a babyfur or anything
3. I'm not drawing entirely new poses, it's a complete fluke the one I have looks any good :P
4. Bear in mind I suck at art, so if your character is really complicated or vastly different it might be difficult for me to sprite them and so might take a long time
5. Also I'm like super lazy so uh, expect them to come out eventually :P

God this is so dumb :P

So! The prizes!

First Prize: Your choice gets a picture, you get a picture and you can choose one other person to get one too!
Second Prize: Your choice and their choice (hope they chose you back!) get a picture
Third Prize: Your choice gets a picture.

This is a super dumb idea, but it's meant to be about friendship! :D So um...have fun!

Good luck boys and girls!

---

Oh yeah, um...I guess I'll note the people who posted who won when they win, just in case it's a surprise :O

In about 10 minutes! Woooooo!

Thought I'd just post a jounal as it's been a looooong while. How is everyone? I'm feeling pretty alright myself actually. I need to do things that make me feel better about myself though.

So yeah, as you may be able to tell by the icon I've had, I can sort of sometimes maybe fluke together some sprites/pixel art stuff. I've done a few for a bunch of people now (BY THE WAY IF YOU'RE READING, IS IT OKAY IF I UPLOAD THE ONE I DID FOR YOU ON HERE?), which, assuming I have permission to put up and I am not too lazy, will go up on here sometime :D

I guess um...if anyone wants one, let me know, and if I'm not super lazy I might eventually get it done maybe :D All I ask is that you give me something in return, whether it's a nice comment, some advice, a friendship, a doodle, a funny picture or video. Anything really :D

Yeah :D

Heeeeey boys and girls! So it's almost Easter, and as I'm a bunny I'm contractually obliged to help with the gift-giving! So um, for a chance for you guys to win some "cool" steam games, just post something in the comments below! Also, if you write a few sentences on either what you're planning to do for Easter or what your dream Easter will be you will have a bonus chance :D

This will close once it becomes Sunday (GMT) or more likely when I check here and go "OH MY GOD THE COMPETITION I TOTALLY FORGOT" so um...yaaaaaay! :D

Not gonna lie, since I've been here I've been pretty interested in doing one of those "It's Tuesday which is apparently the day for journals about questions and stuff" journals. I realised today just happens to be a Tuesday and everything!

So um...I want to something a little bit different, instead of asking questions (although you can totally ask questions and I'll answer them!), you can say whatever you want, whether it's just a chat or a quick "hi!", and I'll tell you something nice or something I like about you. Doesn't matter if we've never talked, or you're embarrassed or whatever. Let's just talk and be nice to each other and learn a bit about each other. Of course, if you want to say nice things too, that's super super encouraged and appreciated!

Also, don't worry about this journal "timing out" once it stops being Tuesday. Just like with all my journals, please don't feel put off just because it's been a while since anyone has commented or whatever. I'll still do this even if it's been months since :P

Also...don't tell anyone this but...there have been rumblings in the earth about a certain bunny who's planning on offering to do little sprites for people and also host a little competition to win some prizes soon. You didn't hear it from me, though, okay? ;)

Hey boys and girls, it's time for another journal about random things I want to share with you! Today I just wanted to share a really good and really interesting pair of albums with you. I think I've mentioned before that I really like stupid mashups, but these here take the concept of mashing up the worst and most overdone and irritating songs and does an amazing job at making them sound great. There are tracks in here that will make you laugh, some that will make you angry that such songs are together, ones that will amaze you with the idea or samples used, and ones that could very easily be their own songs.

So I present to you, Neil Cicierega's (yes tha guy who did Potter Puppet Pals and was also in Lemon Demon) two gloriously unique albums, Mouth Sounds and Mouth Silence.

If you don't want to listen to both of them all in one go, I'll highlight some particularly interesting tracks you guys might like. Also these albums are totally free to download!

And by "some" I mean "most of". Whoops.


Modest Mouth

Mouth Sounds is basically an album of the whole "Hey you know that song from the intro sequence of Shrek? Let's shove it in everyone's face until it becomes annoying, but somehow in a way that's endearing and makes people chuckle" thing that's been going around on the internet for ages. This song is an example of a particularly well-done mashup though, because if you haven't heard either song before you probably wouldn't notice anything is wrong.

Vivid Memories Turn to Fantasies

He basically remixed that song from Men In Black. It's really good. It's one of those ones that holds up by itself as a relly good song. I'd love to dance to this at a club.

Imagine All Star People

The most delicious blasphemy. It makes you think "I freaking hate you" as soon as you listen to it. I love it.

Melt Everyone

Another good remix/mashup, this time some sort of weird electronic remix of Santana's Smooth. I really like it, it's just weird and an interesting remix of a song into a completely different style. Also more Smash Mouth just to annoy you.

Goodbye

This is the intro track to Mouth Silence and...there's something about it that lets you know you're in for an experience. Like listening to Semi-Charmed Life on LSD.

Rollercloser

HE MASHED UP LOVE ROLLERCOASTER WITH GOD DAMN NINE INCH NAILS AND MADE IT WORK.

Furries

It's obligatory that I post this one, eh? :P The beautiful blasphemy of combining MMM-Bop and Jimi Hendrix in a way that totally works, and then adding in news clips about furries, samples from What Does the Fox Say and editing the lyrics so Jimi sings about kissing a fox. You're welcome.

Best

This is literally a mashup of lots of different songs involving the word "best" in it. It's amazing. It samples a commercial for Folgers coffee and the theme from TaleSpin and Carmen Sandiego. But it's still amazing.

Pokémon

News reports about Pokémon layed over I Want You Back. It sounds like it's the intro to a documentary about how Pokémon has changed the world and influenced generations of children.

Crocodile Chop

More of a straight-up stupid mashup that irritates people becase of how well it works. One of those ones that immediately makes people think "OH MY GOD WHY OR HOW DID YOU THINK OF THIS". It's Crocodile Rock and Chop Suey!. He made it work. God damn it. How.

Numbers

This is one of those songs that has so much going on that it almost feels like it stops being a mashup. The theme is phone calls and numbers. It's just so impressive how many random things are in this. (Like that goddamn Nokia ringtone of all things!) Yes please.

Space Monkey Mafia

It's like an...electro-polka?...version of It's The End Of The World and We Didn't Start the Fire AT THE SAME TIME. It's amazing especially because you then realise how similar the songs are. This is one of those songs that'd be amazing to see people do live, like some sort of karaoke-off. Gosh.

Piss

Semi-Charmed Life mixed with Tubthumping and Rock Your Body, but with the lyrics edited so that lines like "He sings the songs that reminds him of the piss he drinks" and "The place where I fell asleep inside my nose". Despite how dumb all of these things are, it's still a good song. Dude's got talent.

Hey boys and girls! :D I thought I'd just randomly put up some silly things here that have no relation to anything!

First off, if any of you guys like gaming on Steam and stuff, check out the Humble Bundle, which has a bunch of indie games really crazy super cheap, and you give money to charity! Neato! Also there's a game with a fox in it so yanno...*overexaggerated winking and nodding*

Also! Um! I like really dumb mashups! Do you wan to hear some? Here are some! Here are some particularly dense ones that I found recently.

Also um...yeah! I dunno! I might give away some Humble Bundle games at some point! Not sure how I'll do that, so um...give me suggestions! Or just be really cool and maybe you'll get one :D

WOOOOOOOOOOO
