then it 👏 is 👏 STOLEN 👏

please report that motherfucker for me

original post from 2016 you can use as the basis: https://cyanideinsomnia.tumblr.com/.....-can-show-your

it's not a public domain meme, yall, let me get tired of selling it before you snatch it

other artists following me: what are your tips for keeping your turnaround time consistent?

my speeds right now are 'finish it all in one go' and 'don't look at it for months after hitting the lineart stage' and that's not good, fam! that's how you get bewares and shit!

i don't want to NOT ink things, because when it's done it looks nice

but apparently that keeps being a sticking point

idk help me my crops are dying

i may try to open for a couple rounds of same day sketches when my queue's clear, and if i'm feeling ambitious maybe one (1) same day full scene

if you've seen me at FWA, ASE or ACE this past weekend, you have an idea of what i usually make

i made a doc for you to spitball ideas for other cool things i could make - it's anonymous and open to edits by everybody: https://docs.google.com/document/d/.....it?usp=sharing

edit wisely or comment below if you like!

also a reminder that these two NSFW YCHs are still open:
https://www.furaffinity.net/view/30067072/
https://www.furaffinity.net/view/30066781/

(may be nice Vday gifts, if you or your SO likes genitals in their face)

i hope to have my queue cleared out before january, but given that that's 3 days from now i'll just settle for "as much as possible"

cons:
Anthro Crossroads East (ACE) - Jan 18-20, on DD waitlist but will lurk the AA if they have one
Furry Weekend Atlanta (FWA) - May 9 - 13, in DD
Momocon - May 23-26, attending, not guaranteed
Anthro Southeast (ASE) - pending date + dealing status

comix:
hopefully complete ZIRCON ch2 and start on ch3
finally do marilyn's dang comic (either selfpub or try a furry publisher)
try for anthologies (also writing ones)
do some 1-2 page smut YCHs

commissions:
more YCHs (auctions???????)
sketch streams
badge preorders for cons if possible
new commission sheet (including making a dang site for it) + more consistent openings

patreon:
updated advert(s)
monthly pinups
sketch rewards
more process vids
birthday rewards!!

anthologies/zines:
big cat zine (accepted)
monster mash (pending)
FIND MORE TO DO

adoptables:
mopey manticore
cooler servals
more original critters
auction off the servulture

school:
advanced animation
advanced modeling
some other stuff i don't care about as much but need to pass anyway

animation:
3D schoolwork (duh)
2D and 3D exercises
animonthly??

moichandise:
hire sibling to ship stuff

new product types??????????
probably gonna have to do kickstarter for preorders

ambition is my middle name,,,, BUT this is also the Ideal Keikaku, i'm willing to let some things fall in the cracks if it means i don't have a heart attack and die

all i really want for xmas is some financial support x-x

if you really want to get me some material stuff, i have some amazon wishlists linked in this tweet: https://twitter.com/CyanideInsomnia.....70443437563904

skeletons are always good

if i find the time/energy for it i may have some xmas/holiday-themed adoptables and 1 YCH, but not guaranteed

i didn't forget to post the next page, there is no next page

due to my hubris i'm falling behind on both this comic and the comic for school, so i'm concentrating 100% of my comic effort to the school one for the next couple of months

it'll be posted here (if i get it good enough to post): http://shitcityfunland.tumblr.com/

dw i have up to chapter 8 plotted, i'm not taking a permanent hiatus

i am an incredibly private person and direct messaging scares the hell out of me

i put my discord/telegram handles on my profile because.............. i guess to show that i have them? but they're mostly for communicating with clients. i'm not good at just.. talking. i'm not against friendship, but it's very unlikely suddenly approaching me is going to make me your friend. once again, it's not you, it's 100% me

humans are scary, even if they look like cats and foxes

kinda smol (no dedicated artist alley room, maybe one panel room??) but it's also the first year and considering the turnout i can only expect it to grow. A+ baby con, i actually managed to eat and sleep like a person the whole weekend, sold out of 3 keychain designs and ran out of business cards

tbh this year was a fluke in that the hotel was also paid for by someone else, so my starting expenses were hella low, but i'd be happy to come back for full con price <3

if you're a southeast/east coast fur and are tired of traveling to new england as your only option, anthro southeast is an excellent contender

if i'm feeling super energetic i might open for more later in the month, but as of this moment i'm fine with just 4

get ready for GUTS

i've got more spaces open for victims! https://tinyurl.com/y7jzlw46

i opened these for the month of september because i figured i'd be too busy to remember to open it DURING october, but if there's enough clamor when i post the ones i got then i might re-open it

also i've got a couple of halloween YCHs planned 0v0

giving yall the whole month this time AND allowing you to add your own info to the doc (if it doesn't work, let me know). all or mostly digital to prevent me from going "but i don't have space to ink it traditionally :C", payment required on Oct 1st

paid art queue:
1. celshade - judas
2. celshade - ckret2
3. pride palette - odardlan
4. fullscene - lionthou/bastille
5. fullscene - firondraak

7. bondage themed - ray vanhem
8. colored sketch - apari
9. NSFW patron sketches

i am consumed by unbridled ambition

patreon has been changed to charge upfront, so if you want to dine and dash you still have to pay for it

school started! my animation class is 3D-oriented so this should be fun, i've been needing an excuse to pop open the student maya etc from like...... 2 years ago

i can't do modeling/animation commissions yet! i'm just learning!

... i really do want to make an furry tho, i have to physically restrain myself from trying to move ahead because i know i'm probably gonna end up crashing and burning

i didn't set my patreon to pay upfront when i made it because i know money is tight

but i've had my first dine 'n dash so i may change this

look, i am incredibly small potatoes. i don't expect to get many pledges and i'm surprised i've got what i got right now.

so when i see your pledge notif in my email inbox i feel like a dog that's been released into the wild, free to eat and roll on what i like, excited to explore

and you took that away from me

but at least you saw some cool stuff i guess

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

hey yall if you wanna support me but can't afford a monthly payment on patreon, kofi has decided it's made for puritans so that's not really an option anymore ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

i mean i guess it is? but i can't link back to patreon or any blog besides my main tumblr anymore

don't know what happened to squarecash but if you know a way to throw me your spare change, lmk and i'll add it

CHECK OUT THIS SUBMISSION 4 COMM DETAILS

ART PLANS:
-finish whats left of the old queue (3 1/2)
-raffle sketch for Spookychooks on twitter
-NSFW patron sketch for KajTaotsu
-8/8 YCH for Blackmist333
-more 2/mo and 3/mo patreon rewards
-finish breakfast negotiations by aug 20

we might have a replacement car???? idk i was 90% sleep when i was told about it. but anyway this means all these Ambitions are going towards merch + website upkeep instead of a wholeass car

i want enough to get some zircon-themed tealight holders before they're discontinued aug 30 but it's not 100% necessary

(i like how it took the entirety of summer before my brain recovered enough to think about doing more art)

https://ko-fi.com/i/IB0B2GM7W

going ahead and linking the kofi version so you can just donate from there if you want

on monday, july 16, some chucklefuck scronched into the front of our parked car sometime around 9-10 am. we're guessing it's a truck of some kind due to the lack of damage to the bumper, maybe someone's work truck. we have no witnesses, no camera footage and our only leads are some tire tracks and white paint

please do not ask us to "chase down the fucker and sue", we cannot

the car still drives, but even with the hood hammered back into shape, its right headlight mount is fucked and dad says that's super illegal to drive around with and the amount of money needed to fix it will probably be better off put into a new (used) car. any car will do, as long as it can move and is legal to drive

i'm gonna finish my damn queue and probably open for all comm types soonish, but in the mean time feel free to swing us a kofi, any amount helps x-x

http://ko-fi.com/cyanideinsomnia

i know most of yall are about them dicks BUT have some cute lesbian art that i contributed to! all proceeds go to planned parenthood!

https://gumroad.com/galsbeinggals

pride palettes are officially closed! invoices will be sent out soon! happy pride month <3

next week is finals, and then i don't have to worry about school til august

however, i'm scheduling may as my "dead" month for catch up mostly, so the next commission opening should be some time in june - as well as the official launch of my patreon 8DD there wasn't as much feedback as i hoped BUT i did get enough to figure something out, so thank u to who all filled out a thing <3

store should probably reopen in june too, assuming i've organized my merch by then

i might do more summer YCHs? though right now the one on the queue is a gore one which twitter seems to have decided is candy gore

i recently hit 200 followers on twitter, which took a lot longer than on tumblr so it really feels like an achievement

SO if you have a twitter account, RT this post + follow if you're not already to enter to win a free sketch commission! https://twitter.com/CyanideInsomnia.....40278087831552

feel free to unfollow after, i can't stop you

if i get over 300, 400, etc due to this post i'll draw another winner per 100 followers

this is my first giveaway so go easy on me ok

(commission queue will be worked on this weekend if i can FUCKIGN FOCUS)

pros:
-better display than last year (although not themed so i didn't get a guaranteed slot)
-people remembered me, including the dealer's den staff
-the commission banner turned out really cool and i'm just sad i couldn't figure out where to put it without being in the way or being too far away that you can't actually tell it's mine
-i suited for the first time, sort of
-really quick and efficient table breakdown
-hanging out w/ people

cons:
-one day i will set up on thursday
-i should have stopped at 5 preorders or not taken them at all
-i didn't get to drink
-i missed the fursuit dance comp trying to sew some shitty handpaws i didn't even get finished
-silas' elastic strap kept sliding off my head
-i forgot to pick up my 1 dollar last minute commission in AA
-my merch organization was great for storage and not for selling
-i feel like i wasted it??

???:
-my sibling really needs their own table/social media if they're gonna keep being popular

2019 plans:
-LOGO COINS and other pirate themed stuff
-more patches, more pins, more comix
-SET UP ON THURSDAY GODDAMNIT

corpse cat zine

if there's anything else ya'll would like to see for FWA or just in general shoot me a line at cyanidexinsomnia[at]gmail.com or on telegram - my sister has suggested a BAWK (chicken monster) for a patch/sticker/etc, always up for more x trash ideas

the original tweet was successfully DMCA'd, the journal is gone and the commenters who wanted to fight/debate/sealion are blocked because the point wasn't is x right/wrong, the point was the people i didn't want to take my art took it

they went and made their own only loosely based on mine, which is absolutely fine, go forth and find success

in conclusion:
-don't take what doesn't belong to you, make your own edgy memes - making is more fun than editing anyway
-i will not debate with you and doing so does not make me "wrong" or a "coward", it just means i value my safety and my mental health over someone's ego boost (because i know i am a terrible, emotional sparring partner - this doesn't make me "wrong" either, by the way)
-if you have a problem with organization(s) i plan to support, please let me know - politely! - what you feel is wrong with them and suggest alternatives instead of jumping straight to accusing me of supporting "evil". i accidentally supported "evil" by buying from a sticker company, i'm not gonna know automatically about these things.
-however, i do not expect you to agree with me or educate me. i just want to do my own thing and maybe improve this shitsack world in my own powerless way.
-basically ... live and let live, guys. i'm going past personal beliefs and trying to go for The System, i will not attack you personally unless provoked, like any other flawed, human person.

this should be the last political bullshit related thing for a while, the next stuff should be commissions/YCHs and FWA designs. next few journals will probably have comments disabled unless i'm asking for suggestions, just in case
