Heya! The platform struggles continue, but I wanted to update this.


Where can you find me for sure, actively, always?[/u]

-> My Telegram channel is a safe bet. I post finished art and commission offers there. It won't go anywhere!
-> In general, my linktree will also always help find me!


Where can you find me actively, at the moment?[/u]

Twitter does continue to be one of my active platforms, but it's slowly giving way to Bluesky!


Where would I like for you to go find me?[/u]

On Bluesky, for sure! If you have one, please give me a follow there. :)


Will I ever post actively here on FurAffinity again?[/u]

I just don't know, I sort of want to try to though. At least semi-actively. The past few months have been very, very difficult for me and I'm still recovering from it, but now that things are settling I might have the energy to post a bit more widely. I'll definitely pop in every few weeks at least...!



Hope to see you somewhere!

As platforms keep crashing and burning (🥲) I figured having a telegram channel to 1) share all finished art and 2) announce commission offers is a good idea!

It’s been really difficult for me to try and stay active on so many different platforms, including here… I might try again sometime, but for now, I wanted to at least share the telegram channel here! Please check it out if you’re at all interested :)

Heyo! Long time no see!

With Twitter’s slow but sure downfall I’ve been been thinking about how it’s not very safe to have all my eggs in one basket, and… there really aren’t a lot of great options at the moment!

I’ll be posting my art backlog here and see how things go here over time! I still do commissions full time and rely on them for my income, so this is obviously very important to me!

Hope to be interacting with you guys O:

Heyo!

Think I’ll try to post a few things here. Activity will be fairly minimal, but I’ll try to also post commissions offers and cross post a bit. :)

For full activity, please follow me on Twitter! It’s where I post everything and open my commission slots. If there’s commissions with limited slots, it will ONLY be posted there. Multislot might be posted here as well!

Hey all!

I'm finally going to return back to more regular activity; I got out my big tablet for the first time in MONTHS today and took the first steps in finishing old owed art. :)

I've updated my Trello as well: https://trello.com/b/H6WzETuJ/commissions

I'm hoping to finish everything asap to be able to take on new work; old work 100% has priority, but if I'm sat waiting for feedback with nothing to do in the meantime,
I might take on one or two new things to use the time. :)

Ultimately, it all took a while but slowly but surely I'm working everything off, and I'm super excited to use my big tablet... it is different from an iPad after all!

Hope you're all doing well :)

Hey all!
I'm really sorry for having sort of... disappeared :') I've given more updates on Twitter, but realize not everybody here follows my Twitter.

Basically, went through some difficult times, was forced to move out, got a really cool job offer which turned out quite annoying and not as promised,
quit the job, moved two more times within that timeframe, and now I'm here.

Different place, rid of that job.

I honestly feel very relieved and almost free. I'm trying to take it easy for a bit as my mental health has been taking quite a hit the past few months,
but I want to get back into everything and draw more again.

I'm super sorry to everybody I haven't replied to, who rightfully might feel ignored or ghosted - I promise I thought I'd manage, but I ended up way overwhelmed.
I'll reply to everybody soon.

Everybody I still owe art to - holy damn I'm sorry. Everything will be finished as promised. I hope nobody is upset, or thought I just left.
I'll make amends as best as possible within the coming time.

So far everybody has been incredibly supportive and understanding, and it's meant the world in the recent weeks and months.

Anyway, hopefully, soon I can slowly ease my way back into regularly scheduled art, haha. Things might be a bit different, and I'll pour some more energy into patreon.
Patreon has definitely been the biggest backbone keeping me going, providing something somewhat resembling a stable income and a purpose. I've been slow with working rewards off,
but I've been doing so on the side and nobody will have to miss out on any rewards. I'm very optimistic that by the end of this month, I'll have everything worked off.

Oh also, I got an appointment for a hysterectomy today for later in January. Whew! I'm excited but also stressed, don't like surgeries. But I'm looking forward to finally having it done.

Thank you all, more soon :)

Hi all!!

I've finally 'finished' moving, as in, I have a very nice room and they set up our internet today finally!!!
I've been all over the place the last two months, just constantly staying at other people's places, with other people,
no space of my own or to myself. It got really stressful and tiring and I'm so so happy to just have a home and my own space. My room is super cozy!!!

I had to spend *a lot* of money to get everything set up... I guess that's what I get for living in the statistically most expensive city in the world,
but I just love it here. I've moved in with several friends of mine, and once everybody is fully settled, we'll have four cats with us!!

ANYWAY
I'll try and get back into doing commissions regularly ASAP. I really need money so I have to really!
I'll make another post in a bit to officially open my commissions, and then they'll just stay open til I feel like I need some breathing room,
after which I'll just work off my queue and then open again, as I used to :)

Hope you're all well!!! Living through a pandemic hasn't been fun but I'm fortunate enough to say that I and everybody close to me has been healthy.
I hope the same goes for all of you <3 stay safe, wash your hands, wear masks, and a belated Happy Pride!!!

Soo I've been quite dead here, but for a reason, and it's just temporary!

Had to move out, have been staying with friends in a different part of the country til everything with my new place is settled.
I have basically not been using my laptop at all and have just been relying on my iPad both for art and posting, so FA came a little short!

Sometime in August I will be moving into my new place and I'll have a more permanent setup for my big tablet, meaning I'll return to basically normal then!
I also really really need to sit down and work as I absolutely need funds for the move and many things to come.

Like.. me getting a kitten!!! It just kind of happened... but I'm so excited and I want to give her the best life possible so no expenses will be spared for her.

I'll be posting some finished works I haven't posted here yet today (finally decided to dig out my Laptop today to catch up on my commission files and such!),
including some YCH offers that are still available!

Heyo!!

Currently offering some icons/headshots for $20 each, please check out my tweet for examples!: https://twitter.com/fiuefey/status/.....541585920?s=19

You're very welcome to comment here to claim if you'd like one!!

Hi all!
Sorry for basically not posting a single thing here in ages,
basically I had to move out of my old place and a new one is lined up for August/September,
and in the meantime I went elsewhere in the country to stay with friends.

Here, I'm basically only using my iPad and have been active & posting & selling on Twitter,
but not really FA. I'll 100% catch up here once I'm back to using my computer regularly again,
which... I just don't currently. I only get it out super rarely for things that are too tedious to do on my iPad.

If you'd like to keep up to date with me a bit better and get chances at commissions,
please follow my Twitter account if you haven't already:

Hey friends, I'll be closing my commissions for the time being for a few reasons:

1) I'm a bit overwhelmed with my queue
2) I keep getting more and more inquiries
3) I need to streamline the process of commissioning me
4) I need to close some types of commissions I don't enjoy

People who have contacted me before this point will definitely still get a reply and I will have to be a bit picky about what I accept at this time; If you've gotten a slot then you're safe, not going to cancel anything!

Heya!

Heyo!

I've revived my Commissions board on Trello! Since I've been a bit slow and spotty with doing commission work,
I figured it would be good to have some sort of over-view available.

The list is anonymous in that I use the receipt number (comes with Paypal invoice) and the first letter of your username.
If you're still unclear about which one you are, feel free to ask! I'll try to include it from now on.

Top is oldest and therefore has priority, bottom newest. If you have a deadline you'd like me to stick to we can still talk about it no problem!

Hope this might be useful/reassuring for anybody :) I'm really trying to work off my queue now and take on more things.
If I haven't responded to a note/message of yours, I promise I will get to it soon! I'm trying not to overwhelm myself too much.

Hey everyone,

I'm a bit more active on my twitter regarding updates, but I kind of neglected posting here, I apologize for that.

I recently finally moved to Reykjavík for my year of studies. That itself went fairly smoothly and I'm settling down well.

Unfortunately something only tangentially related happened that threw me down a depressive pit and I struggled with harshly. I find it hard to put it into perspective but I feel like this is one of the worst experiences I've made and I'm still working on coming out of the other end. It's not even nearly as bad as it was some days ago but I still don't really feel okay.

However, life doesn't really wait and I really need to make money to support myself while living in this expensive country.

My first step will be to work off whatever is left on my queue, and then taking on new commissions. I'm considering raising my prices to accommodate the raised prices of... well, everything around here.

I also still have to figure out a good working space in my new home as to not end up fucking up my back again. The table options are very limited but thankfully my flatmates are also very understanding of my need to have a work area and I'm sure I'll be able to work something out.

Thank you for your patience.

Soon I'll be unable to draw for a week or two so I'm focusing on finishing off my queue before I get to that!

I might open limited slots of specific things where I can be sure they'll be done in time.
Otherwise the plan is to re-open in early August when I've settled in in the place I'll be staying at!

Thank you!!

Hey everyone! I came back from vacation one day before my birthday, and ironically, flew from the equator to Germany into hotter weather. :^) Like, excuse me. And I've got no pool here.
Not to forget two days later I was scheduled to have minor dental surgery getting into my jawbone, and I've been recovering from that as well,
and the anti-biotics make me super extra sensitive to UV rays, so I was advised to stay inside for five days... whyyyyy.
But oof. I made it back, had a fun time!


Now that I'm back, I'll get back to drawing!
All my commissions are open!! Check out my Weebly page for prices:

1) I received an e-mail from them that they don't want you to have raffles as a selling point for certain tiers,
so I removed it from my page -- however, $5 and $10 patrons will STILL be entered into a monthly raffle by default, I just won't mention it on the page. :')

2) I upped the lowest tier from $1 to $2, you can find the reason here: https://twitter.com/jonathanvair/st.....13366514913280
"Many artists w/Patreons don't know this, but please get rid of your $1 tier. $2 tiers have greater retention, lower processing fees, and are still accessible to would-be $1 patrons.

This isn't my opinion. This is Patreon's data. They mention this during every livecast."

That said, I'm starting to try and get into it and I've been posting some WIPs!
Planning to post a step-by-step today or tomorrow of some Telegram stickers! :)



I'm also going to adjust my infographic accordingly to these changes!

I'm currently struggling to work out how to finance studies abroad, so of course Patreon popped into my mind as a little help...

What could I offer to interest you in supporting? I tried Patreon once before and did not think things through properly, and I want to do it better.
I'm just very, very unsure what to offer.

Would you like to see WIPs?
Raffles?
early commission offers?
polls on what I should draw?
Tutorials?
Step-by-steps of drawings?
What else?


I'm pretty much open to doing anything, if it'll end up helping me out somehow!

I did those aaaages ago and I feel like giving them another go!

Here are the old examples:

https://www.furaffinity.net/view/15625610/

They'd still be painted, and with a simple background of choice!
Any animal welcome!

Old price was $25, so I'd stick with that?

PM or comment if you're interested!


(ALSO I'm hoping to get back into making speedpaints for short commissions with these as well!!! So you might also end up getting a speedpaint video, though no promises!)

Figured I'd make a quick journal linking some other sites I've been using to make sure it's up to date! :)
I'll also link these properly on my profile!

Weebly - My 'main' separate website; it has the most cohesive list of my prices and some extra infos!
Twitter - I'm the most chatty here but I still try to keep it mostly art-related; I'll post some of my own art and retweet art/art-related stuff I like!
Instagram - I post traditional art here which I don't do ANYWHERE else at this point!!!
Tumblr - I mostly just post all art separately so it can also be reblogged! :) If you'd like to reblog your commission, let me know and I'll post it!
CuriousCat - Newest addition, in case you're curious about anything!

Otherwise, regarding contact aside from all these websites there's always the possibility of contacting me at fiuefey@gmail.com!

I've had an art instagram for a little while! Buuut only with 3 posts for the longest time lol.

I decided to give it a better go, and what'll be special about it is that I'm going to be posting some traditional art as well!
So if you'd like to see that feel free to give me a follow! :) I've got a few more posts lined up but I'll be posting them a bit spread apart.
