Hello all!  classycannibal here to let everyone know that Cyn's internet is still down and they are super apologetic. Cyn is working on some owed work while without internet, but has no way of getting a lot of peoples refs, so coloring can't currently be done.
Thank you all so so much for your patience, and if you have any questions, please shoot me (classycannibal) a comment or note so I can get it to Cyn!!

Again, thank you all for your patience!!!! You're all wonderful and perfect peaches <3

So we don't have internet atm due to certain issues
We're hoping to get it back on soon, but I'm not sure how soon Q__Q
Commissions are still being worked on since I can still get to refs on my phone, but I won't be able to upload anything for awhile
Just a heads up !! I'll be back soon hopefully ;0;

please don't be mean to beginner/amateur artists.

they are just starting out, they're still practicing and getting the hang of things, they're still working on getting there.
they haven't learned 'oh this color doesn't clash well with that color' and etc yet
they are still learning
they'll get there someday !!

no one pops out da pussy drawing motzart

i can guarantee no one's art looked amazing when they first started out
everyone starts out with bad crayon drawings and disproportional animals/people/whatever
you can ask any popular artist (or any artist at all for that matter) and they'll all say the same thing, it takes years of practice and studying and hard work
and you know what ??? you never stop learning !!! your favorite artists, artists that seem to already learned everything there is to learn, they're all still learning new things. art is hard !!

instead of being mean and leaving hateful comments and telling them their art sucks, or leaving comments like 'holy shit' or 'there it is' or whatever where it's not fitting(i.e on purposefully bad drawing or smth), encourage them !! tell them their drawing looks good, compliment the colors, compliment how the left leg looks, anything ! IF they're open to it, give them HELPFUL criticism, help them to improve !! telling them their art is bad is not helping !
a little kindness can go a long ways

blogs like horrible-deviantart-drawings and related blogs are shit, i confess i myself used to think they were funny until i realize how fucking harmful seeing your art on something like that could be. something like that can make a person want to give up drawing and never even try again, they can feel like they'll never get better no matter how much they practice.
i'm just tired of seeing young dA/fa artist's drawings of their rainbow sparkle wolf oc going around on tumblr and people leaving snarky comments

please be nice
it feels so much better than being mean
being mean is so tiring like why would u do it

on that note- deviantart, tumblr, fa, and a ton of other places on the internet are crawling with tutorials for just about everything everything ! don't be embarrassed to use them, don't be embarrassed to use a reference. those things are there to help u ! and don't be afraid to experiment with things, create a new style the world has never seen before ! how else will u get better and learn new things ?!!
