So, I know most people don't read these, but I feel like I should do it anyway.

I'm gonna be posting a ton of old artwork to catch up. I have literal years of stuff I've just never uploaded and like....should.

I have also realized I have major posting anxiety, and overthink things a lot because I'm a paranoid perfectionist. But I'm doing my best to fight it.

The grief related stuff is still on the way, but this gives me something to do while I work on it. This way I can at least get stuff out while I continue to process things and work on the projects at my own pace.

I know a lot of people have been wondering where I've been, but I am alright.

I still draw occasionally, I just haven't posted stuff in a long while. It's kind of amazing how personal some of the stuff is I've put on this site, but I'm not getting rid of it, even if I m-maybe should. =v=;

I never expected for my stupid little account to get me so many friends and such, it's genuinely changed my life for the better. So, if I haven't said it, thank you guys for enjoying anything I've made.

I've changed a lot since years ago, so I had to get rid of that old cringe post. XD

Hope you're having a good day!

Every time I come back here on FA to post it's like looking into a time capsule. I've been so negligent of posting that I have to look back literal years to find where I was before. I've gone through 3 entire folders since then; each folder symbolizing just under a year's worth of drawing on and off.

It's like looking at a snapshot of my past, and who I was 2 or even 3 years ago. It was so far back, that I was still doing the thing where I was only drawing NSFW because I thought it was all people wanted to see out of me, and it destroyed my mentality. It was so far back that I was still having nightmares, deep depressions and sickening feelings over my fantasies and trying to pull myself together because well, "it's what I was making, can't stop now." But now that it's been so long, a lot has changed. While I unfortunately still think most people on FA still only follow for the NSFW artwork, I'll be posting the SFW stuff here too for archiving purposes; because as you may know, Twitter is terrible at organizing anything properly because it's a shit app and I still don't know why it became so popular. Apologies to those who are only here for NSFW, but I did just make a new organization button for only that. So, I hope that button/folder helps on the gallery/scrap page.

I've lost a few good friends over the years, which stung beyond words, but gained many more in the process. This wasn't supposed to turn into life advice so I'll make this quick but, don't give up. There will always be people out there who truly care about you, and sometimes you just have to find them and stick with them.

Hell, there are going to be pieces I post with people I don't really talk to much anymore, but history is important. And I feel I should post the stuff anyway, even if it pains me to look at the art.

Also, last note. If you're reading this you're either interested in this random journal you found or you really like my art. So, I just wanted to say, people have full permission to use my characters, I don't care. All I ask is to be credited if it's my design, perhaps a link to my page, and the ability to use your characters as well. (The reason for the last part is because I've been hurt by one-way streets where I give people full domain over my characters, but they don't do the same for me. A fair trade is a fair trade. I might lift this restriction later but for now, that's what it is. If that seems unfair to you I'm sorry, but to me a one-way street is unfair to me. Ugh, this is gonna agitate so many people and I'm not looking forward to it. >.>)

It's the best day of the year. It's the best day of the year. It's the best day of the year. It's the best day of the year. It's the best day of the year. It's the best day of the year. It's the best day of the year. It's the best day of the year. It's the best day of the year. It's the best day of the year. It's the best day of the year. It's the best day of the year.

(pssst, that's April 1st) :D

Anyone who pays attention to me knows I'm horrendously far behind with posting things on here, so I hope you'll excuse the absolutely massive dump in content. Some of this stuff is so old I don't even remember making it for the most part. Hell, the one thing is from the end of 2019 that I posted the day of making this journal.

I really do need to consistently put stuff out there for you guys. I'm gonna work hard to do just that. Sorry for making you all wait so long. At the very latest I should be back up to date in a month or two.

Also, I'm glad to see my SFW stuff finally getting a few favorites. I feel so much better posting them than not.

-A Space Bun

So uh, I finally posted the Inktober stuff from last month...way late but it's better than not. Now, I dunno what to do. I have a few ideas for scheduling and ideas.

I'll put another update out hopefully at the start of December as to my plans going forward. I've been thinking lots about my life and such. I know the SFW stuff doesn't get as much attention but, I like doing it. So, that's what Imma keep doing. It'll be mixed in with the lewd stuff much more from now on.

Soooooo, I kinda wanna do the Inktober thing, but like not physical ink. The ratio of lewd to not lewd stuff will be random tbh depending on how I feel but, everything will at the very least have an eerie vibe. Because Hallowweeeeeeeeeeeeeeen.

Also heck, someone force me to stay on schedule with posting stuff.

It's been a while, hasn't it? Been going through a lot lately, apologies for disappearing, but I'm glad I did. I feel much better now, and I hope you'll forgive me.

I'll probably make a post about this since lots of people don't read journals, but I plan on increasing the variety of stuff that I draw about, and drawing more of what I want to draw instead of being paranoid about it. So, I hope it all works out! :D

Oh yeah, I actually have an OC now, and you'll probably be seeing more of him. Wooooooooo, or something. .-.

Literally everyday from 6pm-10pm EST (except Wednesdays)

Livestream link is at the top of my account page. o3o

I've gotten way further behind with posting the art from streams and such. Also, the stream schedule is outdated from the last journal so I'm updating it.

Streams will be guaranteed on Saturday / Sunday from 9:10pm-1am EST. (might go later depending on audience.)

There should also be some streams through the week, will update this journal for specifics.

For now at least, I'll be doing a stream at 8pm. EST on Monday for who knows how long. I'll likely have the others Friday and Saturday at similar times with potentially random late night streams all week. (but not guaranteed.)

Also, I still have TONS of stuff to upload, but I'm pooped for the night.

{{{ EDIT: Will be doing Friday, Saturday, and Sunday for Streams, starting at 6-7pm consistently. However, I may also just start streaming randomly at any point during the week, most likely at 10pm EST or later. So, if you can't sleep and wanna hang out I'll be there sometimes. }}}

I'll be dumping everything I haven't onto here tomorrow, and getting the stream schedule finalized too.

Stuff should be there a little later in the day, not super late like I usually do, Also, there should be a stream Monday at an earlier time.

I'm a bit behind on posting the stuff from streams, obviously. But, to make it easier for people to catch me doin' the streamin', I'm going to have a stream schedule hopefully tomorrow to be posted. Typically it's later at night, but I might do 2 days a week where it's much earlier for all you sane people out there.

(((The stream has concluded, the results will show tomorrow u.u)))

I'm gonna stream for like 1-3 hours here. I'll be online in about 10 minutes.

(If there's ads use adblock, sorry about that.)

(((Stream is over, thanks for showing up and hanging out, was fun.)))

Here's the link, I'm just setting up the stream and such. Will be doing some drawing in few.

I'd like to do a short stream stream tonight, but I'm having a little trouble getting it set up atm.

I was shooting for 10pm EST, but it might be later, around 11pm.

I'll post the account and everything if I do manage it tonight, it won't go for more than like 2 hours. Otherwise, if I can't get it working right, it'll be happening for sure tomorrow.

Sorry about the lack of updates, I was moving houses for the last while here but I think we're finally settled in enough to devote some time to this stuff again.

I've also been dabbling in animation and such since I haven't in a long while, and Blender is a great option for that type of stuff with version 2.8 coming out. (It's complicated as hell, but I've already put a few months into it before this so it is not that bad.)

If I do anything animation-wise for the NSFW side of things I'll leave it on here, likely in the scraps but we'll see.

I can't believe it's been three weeks...I need to draw some pronz.

This one should be a little easier than the last but still challenging. I say easier because just beating it should be fine, but speed running it is another story.

The level in question is a boss fighting extravaganza where you can save your progress with a looping checkpoint after each victory. (red coin count saves on checkpoint refreshing.) I'm not sure what difficulty it is yet, but it's at least expert if not super. I tested the ever-loving crap out of it, so everything works smoothly. If you die, you should be able to respawn and try again after 4-7 seconds for each room.

Level code here: JS5-RKF-1KG

Have fun, and don't forget to save by hitting BOTH checkpoints after a room.

I admit I've been playing a bit of Mario Maker 2 lately, and by a bit I mean a day of the week suddenly disappeared from my calendar; how mysterious. But, me and my brother made a level as a practice in game design and it's pretty difficult but fair. Kind of a spooky ghost house level with VERY minor trolling and low visibility. It's also a little scary and should get your heart pumpin'.

I must warn you though, it's Super Expert level.

The level code is here: 9K9-JJ4-T9G

Yeah, the reason I've been away for so long is because I'm making a game. Luckily I already knew a bit about coding to start, but the learning curve for it is still fierce. I've dived into it and become fairly successful, but I realized I never really mentioned anything about it to you guys. (The game is not nsfw, but I could easily make a nsfw game later at some point.)

I think it's about time I get back in the habit of drawing something at LEAST once a day for you guys. I'm a bit out of practice but tons better at coding so it's fiiiiiiiine.

Thanks for putting up with my disappearing shenanigans.

So, this ridiculous game called Jump King came out. It looked kinda fun and stuff, figured it might be worth a playthrough and...my god. It's frustrating as hell, but I've already sunk like 12 hours into it.

If you're the kind who likes a ridiculously challenging and unforgiving game, this is worth a buy. It is truly a test of willpower.

At least it's given me some more inspiration for artwork, so that's a positive.

The next poll is going up later just so you guys know. It'll be up for either 3 days or a week, haven't decided yet. The options are pretty much the same with minor differences. ( It's to vote on what piece of artwork I'll make, like a build your own garbage factory. :D )

I'd like to give more people a chance to vote this time, hence the longer availability time. (The bomb-otters were the result of the last poll.)

What do you guys think about me getting a SFW account? Is that something anyone would be interested in? There's bits of artwork I haven't released simply because they're not NSFW.

Also, new schedule is pretty much the same except that it might take me two days to upload something sometimes, probably a story if that's the case, and other days it might just be a quick sketch.

(11pm-12:10am EST)

I have an actual internet connection...it feels weird. I'll shoot to have something by 12 but it might be a little later.

So, yesterday in the post I mentioned that I was at the beach. I'm still there, and the wifi is crazy so I'll just post tomorrow instead.
