I'm horribly organized, but here is a link to my twitter thread where I explain how I do things, and answer frequent questions.

Other comm details may be found in the journal before this one...

Someone said that I should have commissions policy posted somewhere. I'll have to make a better visual representation at some point, but for now, here is what I got...


BASIC VORE COMMISSION DETAILS:

1.) Decide how many frames you want, and send me REFERENCES.

2.) List in detail how you would like every frame to go.

3.) Commissioner DOES NOT PAY for sketches, unless they
A.- Approve one or more images for inking
or
B.- They decide to cancel inks and do PWYW for the sketches

4.) Commissioner has the right to CHANGE ANY DETAILS while in sketch phase, or to REQUEST A DO-OVER of the sequence (different pose/idea with same characters) or CANCEL the idea and get another. Again, ONLY in sketch phase.

5.) Once an image has been approved for inks, and work starts on the inks, there are NO REFUNDS for whatever images have inked progress.

6.) Once inks are approved, customer can pay HALF UPFRONT & UPON COMPLETION... or they can pay ALL UPON COMPLETION... or ALL UP FRONT.

7.) If at any point the customer is upset/unsatisfied, they have a right to demand compensation vore sketches (not inks) for their troubles.

8.) Anyone who forces a paypal refund will be blacklisted until further notice.

9.) PRIVATE inked images will have a fee of 20%

10.) Rules are subject to change or negotiation.

__________________________________________________

PRICES

Once the commissioner approves inks, prices apply.

-- Basic character inked = $60 for the first frame

-- COMPLICATED characters (dragons/winged characters/characters with spots, stripes, tattoos, etc/characters with armor/etc)
can cost from $70 to $200 for the first frame. You will have to SHOW ME THE REFERENCE to get an approximate quote.

-- For sequences... edits are based upon what part of the body I have to redraw, which can be $10 per item on basic characters, and up to $50 per item on complicated characters.

For instance, if you have a full-bellied bunny with a detailed vore belly, that would be $60 for the character and $20 for the detailed bulges, equaling $80. If you wanted the second frame to have the bunny moving one arm ( arm redraw $10) and licking its lips (change face $10), then the second frame is only $20. I try to make sure each frame is as cheap as possible, unless the commissioner says otherwise.

-- I can be reached via notes here, DMs on twitter ( c0wnugget ) but...

the BEST way to reach me is on DISCORD at GuNMouTH#1711

I am still very much alive and active!

I have a specific DISCORD GROUP where I have 300+ images that I update MONTHLY.

If you want details on how to join, please go here.... https://allofthebadthings.tumblr.co.....y-contact-info


I rarely upload here, because there is no stacked upload feature, where you can upload 20+ sequence images in ONE post. I do not want to fill up my recents with frames...

I attached a Curious Cat to my twitter at http://twitter.com/c0wnugget


https://curiouscat.me/c0wnugget

Any questions are fine. Even weird and anonymous ones.

If you do not wish your questions to be answered in public, you can DM me here, on twitter, or in discord ( GuNMouTH#1711 )


Hope everyone is enjoying the new year!

For those that need to contact me, notes DO work,

but if you want a faster response, my DISCORD address is...

GuNMouTH#1711


This is not for RP, and I do not always respond right away. I respond when I have time, or when I feel like it.


I ALSO UPDATE MOST OF MY STUFF ON DISCORD.

I have over 300 images on my Discord server. Anyone can be added to it, but you cannot see the content unless you are a member of my Patreon.

http://patreon.com/cownugget

I would upload more stuff here, but there is no feature that lets me upload sequential images into one entry. Hmm.

One day

FA will have batch/stacked uploads

allowing users to upload multiple images in ONE upload

That way, someone like me could upload a VORE SEQUENCE of 20+/- images

and not clutter the recent uploads.

EDIT: I'm not talking about a mass uploading feature, or automated uploading. Many people are suggesting Postybirb-- which is nice-- but that's not what I am talking about.

I am talking about being able to post many images into ONE POST. Say someone made a comic that was 40 pages and a cover... on their front page, you would see an icon of the cover, along with a tiny icon over that to show the entry has multiple images. When you click on that, it takes you to a page where all 40 pages can be seen without cluttering up your "recent uploads" with 40 images.

Does that make sense now? I want that. I want that HERE. I do not want to link off site to ink bunny, imgur, dropbox, etc.

MOST OF WHAT I DO IS SEQUENTIAL SINGLE IMAGES, and I do not want my ENTIRE RECENT UPLOADS to be filled with a portion of only ONE of those sequences.

Hey guys, if you are debating evacuating North/South Carolina's coast... or if you are waiting for a sign on whether you should go... CONSIDER THIS MESSAGE TO BE THE SIGN THAT FINALLY GETS YOU TO GO.

Katrina killed 1,833 people, Maria killed around 3,000 people. Yes, 3,000 , and that place was built to withstand category 3 hurricanes. THE CAROLINA COAST IS NOT EVEN BUILT TO HANDLE CATEGORY TWO HURRICANES.

Please do not gamble with your life. EVEN IF it ends up fizzling out to just a tropical storm, it's better to be overly safe and short a few dollars than DEAD.



Folks are already going to be busy cleaning up whatever gets destroyed.... so how about we give them a few less bodies?

For the moment, I am testing out uploads, so right now you will see HI-REZ and ALTERNATES for pics that are already here.

BUT...

KEEP AN EYE OUT, because I will be gradually uploading MORE stuff!

YES, this Patreon has a DISCORD group. You should be able to access it once you sign up. If there are any problems, please let me know, as I hear the Discord features can be buggy (especially if you RAISE your pledge amount).

I am not ALWAYS available on the Discord, but PLEASE be patient, and I should respond to any messages left for me.

I am making a Cownugget Patreon.

It is pretty much going to become the main hub for most of my stuff, since most other galleries do not offer a proper batch uploading service that I want. Plus the "Cownugget CD" thing is getting tiresome.

I want to be able to doodle vore stuff more often without always having it be commission related. I also plan to use this to help finally kill my backlog so I can move on to other things. Having a Hi-Rez feature be a thing is also something people have been asking about. With Patreon, I can provide all of that mess!

Generally, the Patreon will be for ALL the vore artwork I do. This includes NSFW/SFW, sketches and doodles, sequences, comics, pinups, etc.

HOWEVER...

Before I launch, if anyone does NOT want their commissions to be featured on my Patreon, comment below or NOTE ME.

I have been a bit sick since FWA. Picked up con crud that lasted all the way up until yesterday for some reason.

Now that I am better, I can get back to what I am supposed to do.

Lately I have been trying to keep my work to deadlines, so that customers do not have to keep waiting... but I found out that on one project, I was three months past the deadline. I am also super behind on Radarn's comic, and a few other things. And there are others still waiting to even get on the list.

If you are upset with how long you have been waiting and you want compensation, please say something! I get nervous when I think people are mad. If nobody contacts me, I am going to assume you are still ok with waiting.

The Discord thing has been working pretty well so far with keeping up with me. It is so far the quickest way to get a hold of me.

GuNMouTH#1711 is my contact there.

Please be PATIENT if I do not respond right away. My sleep schedule is really, really bad.

Thank you to those that continue to support me.

Many have asked which of notes or Discord is a better way to reach me.

Either or both are fine. Just understand that I cannot always respond right away. Yes, I am fine to chat about anything, but I am not very entertaining. I do not RP (just not into it), and I am not an avid gamer.

Also, people worry that they "bug me" on discord. Please do not tell me this, because then I worry that I give off the wrong impression. I view any messaging program like a sort of "at your convenience" thing, like e-mail, so you never have to worry about bugging me.

Some worry that I will get upset if they bug me about their commissions on Discord. I will not get upset. That is sort of why I made the info public in the first place. If you want to contact me about a commission I owe you, or you want to demand free compensation art for waiting in any way, or if you are experiencin ANY other discomfort, Discord is a great place to do it.

Again, GuNMouTH#1711 is my contact there.



Gonna try finishing work as fast as I can.

Many have expressed issues with contacting me over notes.

Generally notes are a good way of keeping me up to date on pictures and stuff.

However, if you would like to contact me on Discord, I can be reached at

GuNMouTH#1711

I respond to messages when I am able.

Have a good day.

Once again, very sorry for the wait on things. Also sorry to those who have been waiting to get on the list. I know it must be frustrating.


To those sending notes, I DO see them . I just have been too busy to get those pics sorted. As a result, I have been doing my best to kill my backlog, as well as keep things kosher by having people pay AFTER the pics are done. This ensures nobody else loses money as they wait.

If anyone is upset for how long they've had to wait for pictures they HAVE PAID for, if anyone is upset at how long it has taken to get on the list, or if there is ANY OTHER REASON, please NOTE me with the subject line "Compensation," and we can work something out.


Thank you all for your patience!

I am thinking of opening a Cownugget Patreon for a few good reasons...

1.) More frequent vore for all to see -- I'll be able to work on cool vore stuff -- things that I would actually ENJOY doing-- every month, and provide it for people who would want to see it, without worrying that each picture will put me further in debt.

2.) Slowing down commissions -- As cool as commissions are, I am getting older and older, and commissions are honestly draining me. I want to start moving towards working on my comics full-time, while still being able to do vore art that I want to draw.

3.) No more Cownugget CD crap -- I will be discontinuing making new CDs, and worrying about watermarks and whatnot. In fact, I may even include my last two Cownugget CDs as a reward for joining the Patreon.

4.) REFUNDS -- There are many folks who are tired of waiting for their commissions to be done. With this Patreon, I will be able to refund these people MUCH FASTER than if I were to get the money climbing out of commissions.

5.) Less stress -- Some customers can get pretty wild. When you get to the point where people are threatening to cause physical harm to themselves or those around them, it becomes a bit too much to handle. With a Patreon, people can choose to support, or withdraw support and leave, and there are no further complications. No more chains...

I have had so many vore ideas, and NONE of them ever come to fruition. Predators I would love to draw more frequently, like Overwatch characters, Smash Bros characters, Anime characters, Bluth characters, Disney characters, many other characters from video games and cartoons, as well as MY OWN original characters-- I've always had vore ideas for them, and I NEVER get to do them, because I am always owing commissions.

It needs to end.

Looking to start this up soon this October. Keep an eye out for it.


Many thanks to those who have supported me thus far, and to the many patient folks who have stuck with me so many years. :)

There really should be a separate category for Hard Vore / Cannibalistm / People being cut up into pieces as if they are going to be eaten but really it's just bloody death and should be under "Gore" but lo and behold it is in "Vore" and there's nobody who is ever going to do anything about it because FA won't update to allow us to block certain tags.


It is hard enough to want to post here as it is...

I am going to have to ask customers to drop down to my level of stupidity.


If you are noting me about a commission you PAID for, please list that info in the SUBJECT LINE.

for instance...

"Fox and Wolf ORAL vore commission from 3/15/2017" would be fine


A few people simply REPLY, and what I end up seeing is "RE: Are you open for commissions?"


Being already over encumbered with massive amounts of vore commissions, I end up assuming it is someone asking again if I am open, and I usually WAIT on those messages until space has cleared.


Thanks to those who continue to be patient.

Lately there have been incidences of what people would consider to be art theft of my works.

First of all, I want to say, "THANK YOU FOR REPORTING THIS!" It is very cool that people care enough to inform me of any kind of theft or copying. The stuff I do is hard work, and sadly I do not have the time to police theft on my own.

My primary concern is when people are MAKING MONEY off of copying my work. This is mainly a concern because I do not want people being ripped off. It sucks to pay someone money only to find out their picture was a trace of a picture that was not meant for them.

In some cases, however, some folks IMITATE the way I draw stuff as a means of getting better.
For instance, some try to imitate the way I do bulges or maw shots.
THIS IS ACTUALLY A GOOD THING. I actually WANT more people to draw vore the way I do.
If imitating my work can make you better at drawing, then by all means do whatever makes you better, but ALWAYS UNDERSTAND THAT YOU WILL NEVER GET BETTER IF YOU JUST RIP OFF PEOPLE, AND IT ONLY MAKES YOU A JERK IF YOU MAKE A PROFIT WHILE DOING SO. Learning is ok, but if you are making a profit off of tracing my stuff, expect your commissioners to be informed of your actions.

If you need help drawing vore, I cannot promise that I will have the time to help, but I will do what I can. Do not be too afraid to ask about how I do what I do if you want to get better at drawing vore. That might be better than trying to trace my works.

Very, very sorry for how long it has been taking me to finish these commissions.


If you feel you have been waiting too long for your commissions to be done,
or you've been waiting too long to get on my list, or are upset for any other reason, please note me if you think you deserve free art compensation and we can work things out.

That is all for now.

Thanks to everyone for your patience.


I've been doing my best to juggle all the work I have to do. Sorry if I do not reply right away, but honestly, every day I get bombarded with whispers, IMs, notes and e-mails asking about image progress. Sometimes I do not respond right away, if at all. It does NOT mean that I have forgotten you, or that I am pissed at you, but rather that I am stressed and trying to deal with each image one at a time.

All I can really say is keep sending notes once every two weeks. I will see them, and I will try to get back to making some kind of progress as the days go by.

Also, if you get something from me, MAKE SURE YOU ARE VERY CLEAR AS TO WHAT YOU WANT. I have been having issues where I have to redraw images ENTIRELY because proper refs and/or instructions were not given up front. I am SUPER SLOW, so I lose a LOT of valuable time if I am not given proper info/refs on a subject matter.

Very sorry for all the delays.

Things have been extra slow this past week because I had to put my cat down.

Nothing is the same, and I am very not used to it.

This is not an excuse... just an explanation for last week.

As for me, I am ok. I had a lot of local friend support.

Thank you for your patience.

Before I begin, I would just like everyone to know that I do not wish to start any kind of argument or drama.

If you think your opinion on this matter might start drama, please message me PRIVATELY.


I am very thankful for those that have supported me in this community, and I thank everyone for paying me for my hard work. It means the world to me.

In the past, however, there have been those that have insisted that I draw vore art for them for FREE, and I would cave in and do it, for various reasons.

And believe me, I can understand those reasons...

1.) Many people have waited for me a long time for commissions, some for years... and I feel compensation is in order.
2.) A lot of people cannot afford my prices, and thus have next to no chance of getting art from me.
3.) There have been some who traded with me, and I never completed my side of the trade, so I owe them compensation.
4.) Some feel I have been greedy, keeping a lot of my vore art behind a "paywall" on my CDs
5.) Some feel I have not been contributing to the community as others have.

All these are things I've been considering, and trying to remedy. It honestly makes me think that maybe I deserved being a vore art slave for that short time...
...does that sound crazy?

With all this in mind, I sorta feel like I owe the community, even if I can only occasionally contribute, so I was thinking of occasionally offering requests.

There are benefits to occasionally doing freebies. For some artists it is a good way to keep interest in their work. For other arters, it's a good way to gain watchers.

But what is the best way to do freebies? Should I...

A.) Ask everyone to note me privately, and choose a freebie to do in whatever spare time I have?
B.) Make a journal and have people submit ideas?
C.) Make up my own ideas, and have people vote which one I do?
D.) Do a request raffle on a journal or in a stream?
E.) Not do requests AT ALL, because the commissions I post are good enough?

Whatever feedback would be nice. Not looking to overcomplicate things... just poking for feedback.

Everyone keeps asking, so instead of repeating myself, I will post here.

MY PRICES


**Inked Picture --- $60 per character (single character bulges free)

**Color Picture --- $120 per character (single character bulges free)

**Comic Page --- $225 to $250 per page, black & white (Max frame limit of 6 frames)

**Sketches --- $30 to $40 per character

**Sequence Edit Sketches --- $30 to $40 per character for first frame

---

$10 to $30 per sketch edited frame

I hope these prices seem fair to you guys. If you have an issue with them, please note me in private, but please try not to press/demand free work from me. Though I tend to cave easily to pressure, I would like to continue making a decent living off of my work, and not become a personal vore art slave again.

Also if I owe you stuff still, please note me so I can work to accommodate you for work owed + interest.

Thanks to all who have supported me thus far.

So if you could insist that Trent, Mora, or any of my comic characters be prey... who would you like to see eat them? Would you demand it be one of your characters? Another one of my characters? Would it be an established character in a cartoon/game?

If you don't want to respond in public you can PM me.

Trent: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/11943802/

Mora: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/20324988/

A lot of people ask me to do free vore art requests for them.


Before I publicly announced that I was selling vore stuff, I did a few commissions for a couple people that took too long. They started guilting me on how long it took, and shaming me on my prices, and told me I should do them private vore sketches for free. So I pretty much became a vore slave to these guys, until one just disappeared and the other got told off by a friend.

Even today, if a person is forceful enough, I can still be pushed to do free vore doodles. All they have to do is keep insisting the pics be free.

It even happened a few months ago. All the person did was guilt me over my prices, tell me what a disappointment I was, and convince me that I owed them, and they got me to do a bunch of free sketches.

Most people who commission me are cool nowadays though. And I am thankful that most are patient. Some are even my FRIENDS.
Heck, if anyone could guilt me into doing endless free vore doodles for them, it would be my friends. Especially the ones I still owe that have done art for me and are waiting to get art back... All they'd have to do is guilt me on how I owe them.

In any case, I guess this is just to explain why I normally do not respond to "Do you take requests?" notes. Just figured I'd not leave you guys hangin.

(Update: No, I will not reveal the identities of the people who pushed free art from me. I am private with that info.)

I'm going to be doing some vore YCH auctions soon.


Trying to get a feel of it, because I want to see about using future vore auctions to help pay people back for their overdue commissions. This is the best I can do, unless I somehow manage to make a Cownugget Patreon.

Hoping to actually get somewhere with this. I am sick of disappointing people.
