Thanks a lot for making me lose my drive to do any art ever again.





that's all i have to say

So I found these shitty stickers whilst cleaning my room and was wondering of anyone wanted a conbdage with use of these stickers around the name or something? (Probably not the people/faeries, but the butterfly and flowers around them)
- The letterings are little log things to make the shape of the letters and would probably go well with (or be overkill with) the pine trees..
- And the hearts are super glittery.


RULES:
- Comment with a ref and what stickers you want me to use and I'll go from there.
- This will be on my time and my laziness. Could take a day to get done. Could take a few weeks. Please no nagging about time.
- You could get anything from a simple rectangle 2-3in badge, to a fancy 5-7in badge. My inspiration, my ideas.
- With these being free, you have no say in a sketch approval. I'm just gonna make it and you're going to get what I produce.

To tattoo artists who do billions of koi fish tattoos on people. Those scales are a son of a bitch.


Look at me trying to be more active on FA.

Out of 300+ submissions (over quite a few weeks to build up, it's not like I'm watching a billion people), I only favourited one piece. I think that's really kinda sad that no art is really eye-catching anymore and I love every piece someone does. Maybe I'm just watching the wrong people.

I need to find (Seattle) people who are as passionate about New Zealand as I am. I really don't like being the only one I know to flail over the art, culture, animals, language, symbols, All Blacks, Haka, etc... I would LOVE if there was such thing as some sort of "New Zealand Culture Club" like you would find in High School, but.. not in high school.

If anyone knows anyone or any thing that would be relevant to me pleeeeease let me know! Furry, non furry, just be passionate about NZ and all things relevant to it! I'd love to get something started and make something happen!

I haven't drawn in months. I haven't checked FA in weeks. My submission list is growing and I only pop on to glance at journals then delete them cause it takes the less time. Saw this one, so enjoy it.

More pretty, skinny boys! Less flaming gay, tranny, twinks!
More chicks with strap-ons! Less herms!
Rah! Rah! Rah!

Yes, I have Eli.
Yes, I have Caution.

But I'm getting so tired of seeing fembois everywhere, idk why. Maybe because the percentage of seeing them IRL is so slim that seeing them everywhere as characters is overwhelming and overused and tiring. Idk. But I sigh whenever I see one now and am losing my love and interest for them because they're EVERYWHERE.

It feels a little weird to have the Union Jack behind Eluned because I'd rather have something New Zealand so I'll probably mess with the image more later.

But the flag is supposed to be like an inside joke thing. Furfriends here in Seattle can't pronounce Eluned no matter how hard I try to get them to learn lol. So one of them started calling me Elundededed which eventually made it sound like London. London is most recognized with the Union Jack flag. (Yes, I know it's technically wrong and should be the England flag, but no one sees it like that lol)

I really love the nickname London and I think it's a great nickname for Eluned. So I made a personal conbadge today (which I'll upload soon) with this name idea and traced the badge digitally.

If you take a closer look as well, Eluned has gotten a few added facial markings! She now has a darker nose bridge, a 'mascara' line along her cheek, and the lighter yellow is shaped different :) Trying to give her a more "natural" look with typical wolf markings. Once I make a nice ref sheet I'll toss that up too.

Whoaaaaaaaaaaaaaa Kangaroobear!

My laptop is "plugged in, but not charging". That's what the little icon is telling me.

It was on and happydandy yesterday until I left at aroundddddddd 5ish pm to go to a concert and I came home at 1am to find it wasn't charging. So I have no idea what happened. Can anyone help me? :/ My laptop is my only sanity lol.






Edit- It might end up being the battery pack/box/thing dying.. it's not warm anymore that shows me it's working and it.. pops.. when I unplug/plug another chord from it. Hnn..

Blahblahblah. Blah blah.

Blah.

Blah blah. Blahblahblah!

No.

24. What's one thing a guy can do to make you like them?

WHOOOAAaaaahhhHHHHHH it's a WOOLFFFFF

Some of my absolute favourite things..

Hawks/birds of prey
Anything relating to New Zealand
Deer/bucks

They made me so happy and flaily. I just drove home from errands and there were three bucks in my yard.. THREE !!!! I'm so giddy right now omg!

But with these three things.. I have no characters relating to them. The things I absolutely love, I have nothing for. Does this make sense to anyone? lmao I feel like I should make more characters incorporating those.. but idk if I want more, I have so many already hn.

I don't really appreciate my art being edited in any way. If you're not happy with what I've done, or if your character look is changed, and you go and edit what I've done for yourself, I don't like it.

I'm really particular and careful with how things look and I want to make sure markings and details are exact and perfect and to the character/owners specifications. If you tweak your character design, either leave my art the way it is or ask me to try and recolour/edit what's changed. I don't mind. I'll do it for free. It just feels like.. idk.. not really degrading, but just kind on insulting to draw on another person's piece.

The Mona Lisa had eyebrows. It was 'restored' and people tried to paint over it to make it look fresh and new, and ended up fucking it up and now she's eyebrowless. And the original piece of art is completely ruined and destroyed by someone who couldn't do it right. That's how I feel about my stuff when things get edited.

Idk. Idk what - if anything - could be done after a piece of art is given up to another owner. Digital commission, traditional conbadge, whatever. Once it's away from me, I suppose that's it. I just feel like.. maybe if it does get edited, you could at least put a note in your description saying it was edited from the original? and link the orig? Cause then if someone doesn't know better, they see that as my art and my mistakes, and I don't want to be looked at that way.

This isn't about one person, there's a couple people I've seen do things like this or say that they're going to change it if it's not right. And I don't think that's right. I'm not naming names, and if you think this is about you and want to stay anonymous, don't comment. You'll just call yourself out otherwise.

Hot damn I have a buildup of commissions to work on again lmao. A lot which are easy to finish, a lot which are SUPER OOOOOOOOOOLD and need to get done.

Tonight will be a drawing night for sure.


I've been wasting my days watching Project Runway from the absolute beginning n_n

Kinda not really.

Part of me wants to take all my 'personal' art with any of my characters and just move it to scraps. Those which are faved won't be deleted then and leave ugly boxes in peoples Fave page. Idk, I've been ksdhfkfjdk recently about the whole furry fandom and furryness of everything and blah. I don't draw my own characters that often anyway, so I don't know if I should have anything 'me' in my gallery. (who really checks the scraps every time you visit a person's page anyway?)

Idk. I'm feeling like I just want to start trying to detach myself from the furry community. I can't leave it completely, I know that, because I have a lot of friends in it and that's what I draw/get money for.

Idkidk. Just a thought. I might end up doing it later when I get fed up with it all.

Edit: Done. All pictures with my personal characters have been moved to scraps save for three. One has  kalystograph in it, another with Caden just beacuse I really love it, and one of Eli for the same love reason.

I also cleaned up my user info a little. I'll probably continue to tweak it here and there. Things are changing. Both my FA and with me.

Stealing these comments from a certain person's rant journal just because they really stood out and I want to remember them (and show them off to others):

"WHEN LIFE FUCKS YOU, FUCK IT BACK"

"Keep in mind two things:
It could be quite a bit worse.
You could make it quite a bit better."

COMMISSIONS ARE ALSO STILL OPEN SO I CAN RAISE MONIEZ ASAP!!

Please look at http://www.furaffinity.net/journal/1307065/ and http://www.furaffinity.net/journal/1326411/ or offers and prices!

If you're willing to pay up front (which I don't normally allow) I will get yours done asap before anyone else!

SORRY TO PEOPLE but this is what's going to happen.

1) People who are willing to pay me RIGHT NOW UPFRONT for their commissions (new or old) will get their stuff bumped to the top of the list and I will do my damnedest to get them out timely.
2) People who have ALREADY PAID are next.
3) Everyone else.

I need that $60. And people willing to pay ahead of time to help me will get their commissions done first. Eddily and Lazar, I'm supersuper sorry cause I know you've been waiting so long. I'm also having a hard time just getting myself motivated to work digitally. Conbadges and traditional stuff are just so much easier for me to do I'm sorry ;__;

You guys think if I tried to pump out commissions in two weeks that I'd be able to raise $60 and go visit/meet some friends of mine in other states for a bday party?

Adding up the list I've got going now, it's about $30.. which is good, but not enough.
Tips?
More slots?
Someone buying some higher-priced art so I can see these people?

I missed out on one's 21st bday, which was a real heart-breaker for me. I've been trying to meet this girl for YEARS and the beginning of Sept would be the time to be able to do it, plus two others that are all collective friends with everyone else.

Do you guys think I could do it? Will you all harass me with comments and shouts and notes saying GET MY SHIT DONE!!! So I can raise my money?

I need a little hope and help here ;~;

I'm in need (read: want) of a new icon.

Can anyone make one for me for free? 8D *bats lashes*

Yeah I get it that on FA people repost commissions and gifts they receive.

You may or may not have noticed I took out the header to my journal (and on my profile page), because I'm accepting that reposting fact and allowing it to be done with commissions and whatever.

On DA no one seemed to have a problem with just faving the work they got, so when I joined FA I was iffy about the reposting and didn't want it done with my art. I'm also a greedy and attention starved person I guess and wanted all the comments and faves to myself because it's my work. People don't respect that and comment/fave on the repost (no matter how much you spam who the original artist was and to go fave it there) when it should all go to me.

But I understand the people who have a lot of watchers and by reposting it would get more views from other people who wouldn't normally watch the original artist. Plus it is a picture of their character and they want it organized in their gallery, etc, whatever. (and the fact "they paid for it, they can do what they want with it" whatever) I GET IT. I was just uncomfortable with it all when I joined, but now that I'm seeing it's just the thing to do around FA, I'm allowing it to happen.

If I've ever drawing something with your char in it - past or present - go ahead and repost it to yourself.
