First and foremost, HI EVERYONE!
I'm so sorry I seem so off or that I don't answer too much the comments. To be sincere, I have so much trouble with english that I'm afraid I don't get myself understood or I don't know what to say D:

Second, I'm trying to work on commissions. PLEASE BE PATIENT if I owe you a request, trade or collab!
I had around four commissions on total hold since forever and its getting really uncomfortable and unfair.

And third, and reason for this journal, is that critique is really freaking welcome.
I actually want to get critique on my work, and I'm giving YOU guys a free pass to give good critique. Even if you feel you might be wrong, I do welcome suggestions, opinions and critique. I just...feel I need to listen more to others.
Because sometimes I feel my work is totally stuck. :(

So, hope you guys are ok (I'm still kinda with a cold!).

Miss is currently open for cheap headshots!
She is a good friend, and her art is awesome and really neat and oh god.

Porque mi ASK necesita urgente un poco de caos y no quiero dormir. :)

(Las preguntas en anon estan habilitadas, asi que si te queres hacer el poronga y mandar cositas haciendote el malvado, podes)

Dusky.-

Because yeah, yes they are.

The whole price list is old, so in order to make it simple, you can comment here/send a note with a link of how your commission to look like regarding style. And I will give it a price.

(I will keep down US$50, so don't worry about it going WAY too expensive)

Sadly I can't stream commissions anymore, which was really nice.
And regarding payment, the preferred method is Paypal (unless you live in Argentina, where you can transfer me money).

Anyways...anyone interested? :)

Dusky.-

I wanted to thank you guys for your support and condolences over my oldest cat's death.

It had been a really horrible week, realizing that she is not here anymore.
So thank you guys.

https://www.facebook.com/DuskwingArt

Because yeah, I think I should have one.
I will post everything in English, because if I wanted to make it "bilingual" it would be really tiresome. :x

So, yeah...Facebook page.
I hope I don't regret this lol

Dusky.-

Well, first off, I hope everyone is doing ok.
I had been going through some annoying health issues (I'm losing my hair due to stress and thyroid issues...retarded body is retarded), but fine nonetheless.
Losing my hair is getting me really depressed, but I try to really don't get too stressed about it, because it will only get worse :s

Anyways, besides from this annoying thing, I'm doing fine.
I'm trying to get information to finally finish school, and I'm thinking of what career can I follow.
Whatever I choose, I plan of moving out from Argentina anyways. I didn't want to, but I realize that I would probably have more luck outside the country than in here. :|

Ok, enough rambling.
How are you guys and gals today? :O

Only because I always get someone asking what's up with Elarin and buckets. LOL

EDIT: It supposedly doesn't allow being inserted and shit, so there you have the link to go :| Stupid YouTube

I seriously need to post more art guys.
Sorry for not being so active. :C

I'm still working with the ToS and wanting someone to read it and tell me if it needs some fixes or anything, since again, English its not my main language and while a spanish version of it will come sometime, I don't get any commission from spanish speakers to justify a translation. :|

And, between us guys?
I seriously hate my username. I need a new username, god dammit, it drives me nuts to be called "Duskwing" when everyone calls me a Badger, lawlz.

Anyways, I will try to post some of my newest art here instead of Facebook.
Hope you guys are ok :3

Dusky.-
(See, I'm a badger...why I sign as Dusky or Duskwing when I'm a badger? I'M SO CONFUSED)

So yeah, I'm trying to write a TOS for my commissions...and I really don't know what I'm doing.

Specially since I'm writing it in English first...and, as you know, English its not my main language. At all.

Anyways, just wanting to share that while I'm struggling to make myself understandable in English...which is, hard, as many of you might know lol.

Dusky.-

So  LotusGarden is open for commissions, and taking in mind she took the time to include me into one of her examples, the least thing I could do is to pimp her and help her get some commissions.

Look at my new avatar. She did it, and is awesomely cute! :D

Her prices are pretty good and her art is awesome as well :D
So, maybe go, and take a look guys? :)

More information in her journal here!

I decided that Illogical's suggestion was good, and added a small twist to the name making it "badgery" enough. :3

Anyways, if you're a badger/have a badger character/support us badgers, show your support!



Dusky.-

So, I noticed that there is a Badger group account, but the owner is long gone from FA, and it's really inactive as duck.

So I thought "hey, I should make a new group account!"
The problem is the name. There are two names in mind.
One is "BadgersClub" and the other is "SnarlyFurryCarpets".

Which one sounds the best? :)
You can suggest a name too, of course. D:

Dusky.-

It had been long since I opened commissions, and I think its time to do it again.
I would try to add now into my price list the Lineless artwork, of course.

I had some notes and what not asking for commissions, but I had been slightly avoiding them because I'm going through what I can only call "stress", since I'm not really depressed...just, stressed out, almost burn out, with my family.

So, I will try to open them again.
Sadly no stream commissions, which were actually nice to do, since I can't make Livestream work at all.
But I will open commissions again, probably recalculating the prices and adding things or taking other things out.

I actually should make a price chart, but I realize Photoshop and I are not going along as much as before. LOL
But, the idea is there to make a proper price chart and to stop relaying on journals.

Oh, and just because I really want to:
I was thinking of helping a bit the Mane6 team.
If you don't know them, they were the guys behind "Fighting is Magic", but Hasbro said NO U and they are now making a new game with the same concept...with nothing more than Lauren Faust herself to help them out with special characters done only for the game.
They seem to be needing donations to get a new engine for the game though.

So, I was thinking...how about if a commissioner donates US$30 to the IndieGoGo campaign of Skullgirls (which will benefit the Mane6 team) and I give them three artworks for their donation?
I guess there is a way to call that, but I can't remember it ATM. Yet, that's an idea I have.

While many people stayed tuned to the Mane6 due to the Ponies, I'm still following them because their fighting game is just INTERESTING. And the fact that Lauren Faust is there to help (out from her heart, with own specially designed characters), the game sounds SO awesome that I seriously want it to make it.

Yet, I realize this doesn't sound so awesome or anything. But I would like to know if people would be interested on such a thing.

Anyways guys, I seriously want to know what you think.
Be it that you get mad at me for charging money for some digital art of some random character with ears and tail, or to give support or suggestions! D:

Take care, and live long and prosper.
Dusky.-

Well people, just wanting to say that I don't have any way to stream again.

With Join.me going to only 10 viewers on free (and with a really absurd price to get more), I will not use join.me anymore.

I can't make Livestream work (the new Livestream is a kick in the tits). And I have yet to try Ustream.
But, to make it simple, I will not do streams anymore until I get a brand new pc...which is impossible, so make it "never". :(

FML.

As another thing, I'm trying to get back on track.
Many commissions are on hold, and I hope to be able to open them up again soon.
I'm getting way too lazy, not drawing as much as before and practicing. And that's BAD for commissions, because I seriously don't know what to do.

I'm also trying to upload art on Weasyl, though I'm not uploading really old art because good heavens, my old art sucked balls.
And I still don't get why people are still leaving to Weasyl due to the drama that happened...I mean, it was a week ago now. LOL But ok!

So, I hope you guys are ok.
Take care :3

Dusky.-

My current tumblr seems far more personal than anything else, and I know sometimes people just want to follow you for the art.

For this, I created a special Tumblr blog. :)
http://badgerscribbles.tumblr.com/

If you prefer art over personal and random reblogs/rants, you better keep an eye on this tumblr. ^_^

__________

I will be REALLY off until the middle of January, taking a serious break of drawing in general. My hands hurt, ok?
I also have to plan tons of stuff for next year, including starting to get income from commissions in my country, and I really need to work on everything I have to do.

This means I will not be working on any owed work. Be it requests, commissions or gifts.

Anyways, hope you guys had some really nice Christmas...or even if you don't celebrate Christmas, I hope you had a really nice night.

Dusky.-

ZOMG, 500 WATCHERS ^3^

I feel so happy. I wasn't really expecting to reach 500 watchers :$
I will probably do a gift art for the watcher nº500. C:

Anyways, hope you guys are ok ^_^

...Zomg, can't get over the excitement. :D ZOMG ZOMG ZOMG

Dusky.-

Now, truth is, I had been feeling blocked in my art.

This is not having to do about not practicing because jeez, I practice every day, at least three or two drawings A DAY in between commissions if my hands are fast enough.
And I'm currently trying brushes and all the such in SAI, so motives to practice exist.

But, I feel I'm doing it wrong.
I'm more of "learn from what you see" kind of girl. I tend to see my favorite artists and learn from how they treat their art to see how can I improve mine.
And lately, I feel that I'm stuck with my own style.

Even though I love my own style, I'm afraid people find it "unprofessional" or "not interesting" in comparison to other artists.
I believe that people should have unique styles, and that they should build it from scratch based on what they like. And I'm noticing I'm not doing what I preach. I feel like I'm stuck and that I'm not learning at all.

I have a very unique style (I realize this, and I don't know if its good or bad), and it seems its just...sticking with being unique, and not growing.
I'm working on everything as much as I can, but I feel SO stuck that I really don't know what I will do after the commissions I have in Queue.

Just, you know...artists having feelings. How dare they? They should draw more and more art. LOL

Dusky.-

Yeah, them commissions. Open again. Wahoo.

Only three slots will be open.

Prices and Conditions are here: http://www.furaffinity.net/journal/3864920/

And I will be doing a stream in some days and will take some requests due to x-mas coming. :3

Dusky.-

Hi everyone!

So, I just wanted to share the following:
I have Skype, m'kay?
Sadly, I SUCK at speaking in English. I do, and I recognize it.
Writing isn't really that much of a problem, I tend to have tons of dictionaries and check spells. Or at least I try to don't murder the English grammar.

But, yeah...if you try to talk to me on Skype in call, you will be REALLY disappointed.
I will stutter and whisper and curse A LOT, cause I'm not confident enough to speak in a foreign language LOL

You can still add me on Skype, but keep in mind I will reject calls so I don't embarrass myself :x

On the other hand, for all the Spanish-speakers:
Si tienen Skype, podrian agregarme?
Me gusta tener compañia mientras trabajo (si es en llamada mejor). :)

Mi Skype es: dieselwing
Solamente recuerden poner en la invitacion su FA, asi no me pierdo :$

________

In other news, I'm slowly trying to work out my commissions.
Hopefully I will get some sketches done before December starts. No promise, since I will have tons of stuff around. But I will try.

After I get another one of my commissions done, I will be open again for commissions (I tend to keep a low queue of three, five if I feel risky. Just to avoid having too many people on hold!)

I will be also trying to stream during the week.
Probably doing stream commissions, since I want to be a beggar. (?)

Dusky.-

I have THREE invites left.
Turns out many of my friends already had galleries there LOL

Anyways, in case you want an invite, post a comment here and I will send you a note asking for your email to send the invite if I picked you.
I will be less picky with the next batch of 10 invites.

If you have a friend who doesn't have a Weasyl account yet, you can also propose them instead. :3
That would be nice of you. ^__^

EDIT: Only THREE invites left. :3

Dusky.-

I'm currently with a kinda severe gum infection.
To make story short, it seems that one of my molars broke about two months ago. I was cool with it, living with it, all cool...But it suddenly got a really awful infection in my mouth.

I'm currently trying to get on treatment, and I'm almost unable to eat, drink or sleep due to how uncomfortable and painful it gets.

I don't even want to eat anymore, it hurts to even move my mouth to breath or talk.

Just, you know, wanted to share how terrible awful my life had been these past two weeks.
The dentist told me that they need to scan what else is wrong, but that the infection can be solved with a treatment. I'm actually afraid of losing any teeth...

...I just can't wait for the treatment to take this infection out. I really can't stand it anymore. :|

If you do have an account, maybe say hi? :)
______________________________
Just some things, guys...

1. I will not leave FA.
I believe that the best way to get known is to have tons of galleries, if possible.
But filtering out, my main sites are FA and Tumblr for art.
I will always recommend to keep my FurAffinity, and my Tumblr at hand.

Hopefully Weasyl will be used as much as I use FurAffinity. Hopefully.

1.a. I will not post over +13 stuff in Weasyl. (If possible)
I want to have a "clean" gallery for once. If you are a fan of my yiff art only, keep FA at hand. SoFurry if ya must.

2. Invites will be given to just personal friends.
I'm sorry, but I will give them out to my friends when the time comes, at least the first ten.


3. No, you're not forced to follow me in Weasyl as well!
If you have an account, it would be nice to have some friends around. But if you don't its ok.
As I said in nº1, I will keep FA and Tumblr alive, and they will probably be more fresh in submissions than Weasyl.

I will keep the gallery able to be seen by non-members, so no worries. C:

Dusky.-

Because god dammit brain, you had one job in remembering but I keep forgetting!

Linden commission

Akitagami - 1 flat color

Rubybuttons - 2, one in flat, the other have to check out ASAP. Free shading

Money Commissions
Jazzypanda - 1 Full color commission, with free shading


And make some motherfucking gifts for them for taking so long.

_______

I will try to do a stream today, if I don't go out tonight alone or with a friend.

I need examples for icons/avatars, so I will probably do requests for these.

And I'm also taking commissions guys. Be it in Lindens or not.
Send a note or read my price list here: http://www.furaffinity.net/journal/3864920/
