Mewtwo amiibo mods
Posted 9 years agohttp://neubauje.tumblr.com/post/139296377916
Who else wants one? I currently have 3 blanks, and can always get more if need be. Prices would start at the price of the amiibo plus shipping, plus a scaled range for any work done to it. Possible discounts for friends. Hit me up on telegram, text, email, tumblr, facebook... pretty much anywhere but here.

Update and Anthrocon
Posted 10 years agoSo you may have noticed I kind of fell out of use here on FA. There's a few reasons for that- the drama was getting annoying, life and working for the man picked up, I got swallowed whole by tumblr and addicted to Trove, I started helping
blitzava with the dragons game upkeep, and I've also been trying to consolidate all of my Pipey Friends business into just a few places. That last one is the most important.
I've grabbed
pipeyfriends just in case I do want to do something with it, but I don't really see that happening. Most of the action these days is over at pipeyfriends.com and etsy.com/shop/pipeyfriends with relatively few exceptions. If you're looking for more personal thoughts and updates, you'll want to look at floppybelly.tumblr.com for stuff like that.
Now, that being said, I am in a bit of a financial pickle. I've just come back from a birthright trip to Israel, which is a whole other story, and in order to do both that and Anthrocon, I had to take a leave of absence from work. Which is about a total of 5 weeks straight. In the meantime I did have a birthday yesterday (turned 25) which has helped a little. I am doing as much boosting and organizing and polishing and advertising as I possibly can. I have a studio now to work from, so I've got plenty of space to start cranking out work. I want to work on your commissions! I NEED the purchases, guys. Seriously.
If I can tide over to Anthrocon, then you'll find me at table B18 in the Dealer's Den. You'll also get a chance to see some larger pieces in the Art Show, where I've reserved some space. Some of you may have seen some of these pieces, but I'm hoping there will be something new there for everyone. And of course, I'm also hoping they get some bids. In the meantime, I'm going to make like
agentelrond and stay glued to my table at all times to try and rake in the customers. So you won't see much of me around the con during business hours. I'm hoping I can make it to all the performances, and especially the
hali room party that will be taking place where I sleep, but nothing is guaranteed at this point. Business is my first priority, since what I've learned from the past five years of dealing is that my stuff always sells better in person than it does online. I don't know if that's a photography issue or what, but... that's besides the point.
My cons have been kind of slow the past few years, guys. I can't let that happen again, not at my biggest show of the year. Can you help me pump it up to be the biggest and best Anthrocon I've ever had? Definitely! Just bring yourself and all your friends to my table and have them all buy something. Then I'll be the happiest mewtwo in the world :3
As a reminder, you can get a pipey of yourself/your sona in sizes small through giant. I also encourage you getting pipeys of all your friends' sonas to surprise them. You can have me trace a badge into a faux stained-glass window cling (also great for the backs of mobile devices). You can even have me knit something for you- and I've gotten a lot better at knitting, by the way! Not just scarves anymore! I've also started dabbling into the world of tabletop miniatures (mostly of pokemon so far BIG SURPRISE THERE), using Green Stuff and Army Painter. You can see some examples of that on my etsy, but if you want a miniature custom made you've gotta order it now because I will NOT be doing those on site. They take too long.
Am I forgetting anything? Probably. If you see any blatant holes in the information, just ask. But keep in mind that I'm not on FA much anymore these days, so it's probably best to ask it on twitter pipeyfriends or by email to pipeyfriends[at]gmail.com

Lost a badge at Anthrocon
Posted 11 years agohttp://www.furaffinity.net/view/12024871/ If you see the one on the left there, please let me know! I'm thinking I might have dropped it in the headless lounge when I was assaulted with hugs.
FA:U plans- rideshare and hotel share?
Posted 11 years agoHey, yeah, I am definitely going to be at Anthrocon. That's for sure. It's in less than a week. Let's skip that for now. Find me at table B16!~
Skipping ahead a couple months, I want to see if I can throw together a trip to FA:U this year. I went a couple years back and had a pretty good time, and there are a lot of folks there that I'd like to hang out with again. It's about an 8 hour drive for me from Columbus, Ohio, so I would absolutely love it if I could snag a carpooler on the way to help split gas. And of course, I will need a room to stay in. I can't seem to find any sort of forum or anything for the con itself, so here I am trying in a journal.
As always, hit me up at floppybellyoh[at]yahoo.com or text me at 740-407-8022

Art panels needed for Morphicon! (Columbus, OH May 1st-4th)
Posted 11 years agoHey guys, who's ready to have some awesome art panels?!? I'd very much like to have some more people running panels, and here's a few that spring to mind-
Makin' Pipeys (I'll do this one!)
3D to 2D: the magic of perspective and foreshortening
All about mediums, strengths and weaknesses of various materials
Color theory 101- How to make a pleasing color palette and more
Advanced lighting techniques, how to set them up in person and/or how to imitate them with colors
What's that Style? A look at furry art drawn in traditional styles like minimalism, cubism, impressionism, etc
Basics of cartooning- character creation and exaggeration, or more
Playing with Patterns- a look at how to turn a pattern into a plushie, puppet or clothing, and how to make your own sewing pattern
Iron Artist- competitors with a mystery medium (I'll do this one unless someone else really wants to)
Designing a good tattoo- the dos and don'ts of permanent ink (Fossil would be ideal for this, but if you have some expertise there too speak up!)
Illustration and composition: How to make an appealing visual scene
Comparative Anatomy- how do those funky bird wings work, anyway? How do you make a dog stand on two legs? What the fuck even are bugs?!?
Dragon-crazy! There is a lot to learn about something that is supposed to be fictional- can you tell the difference between a wyvern and a wyrm? Do all dragons have scales? What makes a dragon a dragon?
Artist trading cards- little quickie art trades for funsies, bring your drawing supplies!
Finger painting: Let's all get messy and make something together for fun.
Face painting: gather up a few face-painting artists and let people get in line to have a temporary mask- good for trading tips of the trade!
Understanding Comics: what makes a comic? What makes a GOOD comic? Does it have to be funny or clever or pretty? Talk about your favorite comics and why.
Fun with Body Types: Making your characters diverse in more than one way!
Culinary arts: Recipe swap; imagining dishes for bird people or lion people or rabbit people
Musical arts: bring your acoustic instruments for a little jam time!
Textile arts: bring your knitting/crocheting/sewing/cross-stitch/latch hook/quilt for a little stitch-and-bitch, or to learn new techniques from fellow stitchers!
Literary arts- that's the writing track! Talk to Heavy Horse about that. magic.by.alan[at]gmail.com
If you have an idea for a panel of your own, or if you see something here that you might be interested in running, let me know! Just keep in mind that if it is of an adult nature, it goes under the Adult track as opposed to the Art track. So email Talmak about that- programming@morphicon.org. And along those lines, all of the live drawing events are already taken care of, so don't worry about them :)
If you are interested in running a panel, please send an email to floppybellyoh[at]yahoo.com and include the following information:
Your name
The name of your panel (Or what it's about, if you don't have a name yet)
What you need in order to run it (Things that you don't already have)
When you would prefer to have it happen (Which day, what time, avoiding which other events, etc)
How to contact you (email and/or other means if possible)
Thanks very much!

Texas Furry Fiesta
Posted 11 years agoSo did I mention I'm going to TFF? No? Well that's where I am right now, loitering in the lobby. Come find me in the artist alley tomorrow and buy some pipeys! Supplies are limited to what I could fit on the plane, so be there early to ensure I still have enough for yours :)
If you're wondering where I'm at or what I'm doing, shoot me a text at 740-407-8022, I don't know all that many people here, so I'll probably be pretty lonesome!

What am I up to?
Posted 11 years agoCopied and edited from my last journal of this nature:
Things I've paid for that people owe me:
witchiebunny owes me a 15-dollar hips-up commission.
pan-pan owes me a seventeen-dollar installment of my fanfiction.
l-sway owes me an 80-dollar robot foursome commission.
reimori owes me a 10-dollar genital reference
Things I owe to other people:
I owe "Aidan CAL" a 4-dollar pipey of his choosing (from winning the raffle at FWA 2012), but I don't know how to get ahold of him!
I owe a raffle prize of a terrier to the second winner of the raffle from MFF... I forget their name. If you wanted a Westie terrier, let me know!
I had a raffle winner at Anthrocon who wanted a rainbow dash window cling? Who was that? I have one ready now...
dasharhosenwyn forgot to take her scarf home with her at MFF 2013, so I have to mail that out to her.
I would like to thank
djpandako for putting me up at TFF2014 by making him a gift pipey.
Things I want to do for business:
Re-fill the basket of mini-pipeys (and take pictures of the new ones)
Finish the giant wire skull and document it for portfolio; Find a buyer or gallery for it
Begin carousel or bobblehead series
Things I want to do for fun:
Play Minecraft forever
Get back into writing oneword prompts (Maybe eventually compile them into a cohesive story)
Things I gotta do for school:
Nothing! I graduated! :D
Plus 20-35 hours a week at Kroger! Fun times.
So... needless to say, my commission queue is looking pretty darn empty right about now. If you ever wanted a pipey, now is the time to do it! I'm planning on a bunch of conventions this year, so I can bring your pipeys to you in person there too. So far on the schedule, we have:
Midwest Media Expo (in Detroit), April 25-27
Morphicon (in Columbus OH), May 1-4
Anthrocon (in Pittsburgh), July 2-7 (That's how long I'm staying, anyway. Need a room?)
IndyFurCon (in Indianapolis), Aug 29-31
Furreality (in Cincinnati), Oct 10-12
Youmacon (in Detroit), Oct 30-Nov 2
Midwest Furfest (in Chicago), Dec 5-7
That is ALMOST one con in every month! If you've got a con in mind that you think I should go to, let me know! Maybe it's possible, now that I'm out of school.

Weasyl?
Posted 11 years agoWhat's this whole weasyl business? I made an account, but not really sure what to do with it. Plus the thumbnailing thing is weird and I don't understand it.

MFF meme stuff
Posted 12 years agoWhere are you staying?
Hyatt Regency for all intents and purposes. Rosemont just for tomorrow night.
What day are you getting there?
Thursday night, hopefully no later than 10pm.
Where will you be most of the time during the day/s?
With luck, in the Artist Alley. With EXTREME luck, in the Dealer's Den. Failing that, uh... hm. That is a good question. Panels, I guess?
Who will you be rooming with?
2gryphon
Do you do free art?
Rarely. It's mostly if the mood strikes me.
Do you do trades?
Sometimes! What I do a lot of times is use my art to get a discount on really cool expensive pieces, sort of a half-trade deal.
Do you do commissions?
Yes! Please god yes
Do you have prints/ CDs?
I have how-to booklets! Also window clings.
Do you do badges?
I will do custom art of your character, but it uh... it won't be a badge. If you already have a badge, I can trace it into a window cling!
What is your gender?
Female
How old are you?
23
Are you taken?
Yes.
Do you have a fursuit?
Nah.
Can I touch you?
Let me initiate it, please.
Can I talk to you?
Sure, I don't mind having conversations! If I'm at the table working on commissions though, it'll probably be more of a case of talking AT me.
Can we hang out?
Possibly. There's already a ton of people I'm planning to hang out with, so my time might already be monopolized. If you manage to grab me on the spot and I'm not doing anything, that's your best bet!
Can I look in your sketchbook?
I guess? I mean, I don't really draw... but it does have a few neat things in it.
Can I draw in your sketchbook?
Yes please, I love getting little mementos from other people!
Can I buy you a drink?
Yeah, I guess. I'm not a big drinker, but if you buy it and it's not roofies I'll drink it.
Can I take your picture?
Only if you can make it look good! I'm actually looking for promotional material for my stuff, so feel free to take pictures of the pipeys too.
Commission Queue:
EMPTY (aside from a thing for my mom)

Opening for commissions: Halloween special
Posted 12 years agoHey guys.
I don't know how many of you know this, but I lost my job back in June. I've been living off my savings ever since, and they're dwindling down, and the job search isn't going so great. I'm almost graduated from school, which will leave me with a lot of free time, so I think it's time to see if it's possible to make a living on makin' pipeys.
I've calculated my expenses, and I need to bring in roughly $60 a day. That's equivalent to three standard pipeys! I can DO that, guys. Three pipeys a day is not unreasonable. I recently ordered a big box of boxes, so that'll make shipping a lot easier. My website is up to date. (that's http://floppybelly.com for those who don't remember) My Etsy store is up and running, and is a fantastic way to make commissions official and accountable, and offers a very organized system of communication between customer and creator. Check that out at https://www.etsy.com/shop/floppybelly and just hit the big blue "Request Custom Order" button.
So, let's talk promotion!
I do have both Livestream, Ustream, and Google+ accounts, and would be willing to use any of those to hang out with people while I work on their pipeys. I've got some good tunes and some cute cats, so that should be fun.
I'm also thinking of doing themed discounts, to help encourage those kind-hearted souls who have always wanted to commission me, but were never sure just what they wanted. Ideas for future themes include Marsupials, characters that are yellow, arthropods, couples, things that fly or swim, extraterrestrials, anime creatures, etc.
For this theme, I'm doing Halloween. That means spooky stuff! Like spiders, bats, snakes, rats, owls, werewolves, black cats, and who knows what else goes bump in the night! NO SLENDERMAN!!! If you think of something I've forgotten, just ask! People ordering pipeys in the Halloween theme (orders of $20 or larger) will receive free shipping, and a small jack-o-lantern window cling to help with your festivities.
I'm starting out with five commission slots, so act now to grab one!
1. Scarf for Dasha
2.
3.
4.
5.
And yes, don't forget about scarves- winter is coming, are you ready?
Lots of love,
floppybelly
P.S. (hey if you could spread this around so that people who've never commissioned me before can see it, that would be great!)

Anthrocon meme because why not
Posted 12 years agoStolen mostly-verbatim from Rondie....
ANTHROCON 2013 MEME (Dealer's Version)
Where are you staying?
Courtyard Marriott--best deal for dealers, really, because it's actually closer to the dealer's room than the Westin. Shocking, I know.
What day are you getting there?
As soon as I can convince my mother it is time to go on Wednesday morning.
How are you traveling?
Mom and I are driving there! She's got a friend in Pittsburgh she's been wanting to visit with.
Who are you rooming with?
agentelrond
darker-kain and
scribbledragon Our room will be BEST ROOM. Invite-only.
Who will you hang out with during the con?
My dealer's table. We will be bestest friendses. Also I want to get some good party time in with
2gryphon and
toastrabbit because I miss my west-coast homies. Other than that… AS MANY FRIENDS AS I CAN MANAGE!
How is the best way to find you?
COME TO THE DEALER'S CAVERN: Table B-06. Easy to remember and spot, because I'll be right next to the one with the giant "2 THE RANTING GRYPHON" sign over it. :D Also I made a map. http://www.furaffinity.net/view/10946985/ Or rather, I uh... labeled a map.
Are there any panels you might be attending?
I am a dealer. Panels are what happens to other people. I really want to catch a Sardyuon performance. Probably the Sunday one, since the Saturday night one sort of makes it impossible for me to have dinner. And those old guys who get on stage and get drunk and fall down. Always a good time.
What do you look like?
https://fbcdn-sphotos-c-a.akamaihd......24711471_o.jpg More or less. Likely will not be wearing quite as much makeup. XD
(okay so that's mostly a joke to play off Rondie's post because I never actually wear makeup except when I'm a robot. More like https://sphotos-b.xx.fbcdn.net/hpho.....51460271_n.jpg plus a fez. Just look for the fez.)
Will you be suiting?
Nah man, I don't fit in those things. Neither does my budget.
Do you do free art?
I think I've already done all the free art for all the people I wanted to do free art for. I can't think of any others.
Do you do trades?
Mmmmaybe. It usually happens with artists I really like, but am too poor to be able to commission outright. Sometimes I do trades as a discount. What I am saying is that I'll come to you.
Do you do badges?
I work in 3D. What I CAN do is trace a badge that you already have and make it into a super-cool window cling! But only if you get it to me before Sunday.
Do you do commissions?
Hells yeah! I'm actually offering something new this year; instead of getting your character as a regular pipey, you can double the price and double the awesome by getting it as a fancy shmancy WIRE pipey!
Also, I will have some really neat puppets that I'm selling for one of mom's friends. REALLY neat puppets.
What is your gender?
Rather female. Have you seen these hips? They don't lie. They also don't talk in general.
How tall are you?
About 5'5"
Can I talk to you?
Please do! Just don't worry if I don't talk back very much, I can be sort of introverted and might be focused on a cool commission.
Can I touch you?
Let's not and say we did. If I feel like a hug, let me initiate it, okay? Otherwise, handshakes are best.
How can I find you?
Table B6! You can also follow my twitter feed floppybelly for updates. Or text and ask me. 7404078022
Can I visit your room?
That depends ENTIRELY on who you are. I'm probably not going to be the one to invite you, because I tend to use my hotel room at a convention as my introvert-sanctuary. It is for sleeping and relaxing and being quiet. If I want to party, let's do it in YOUR room!
Can I buy you drinks?
I prefer food. But if you find me at the bar… never mind. Just buy me some sushi or chocolate. Or if you must, a Bailey's and Kahlúa on the rocks is a good way to get my attention. (That sounds really good actually, Rondie! Thanks for the suggestion!)
Can I give you stuff?
Presents? I LOVE PRESENTS!
Are you nice?
I try my best, but sometimes I can be a little standoffish around people I don't know yet. Just don't be offended if I am on the quieter side or have humor that is a little different from yours.
How long are you going?
Arriving Wednesday afternoon, leaving Monday afternoon, hopefully in time to catch my 4pm class.
Do you have Dealer's Den table?
COME TO TABLE B-06 I WILL HAVE CANDY!!! (lol no but I will have pipeys and scarves and puppets and how-to booklets and beanie babies and oh-so-many window clings.)
Will you be going to parties?
Depends if anyone invites me. (I AM LOOKING AT YOU
arcticpete!!!)
Will you be performing?
Not so much. I'll try to make it to as many of the performance panels as I can though, so like... The old drunk guys, that one bird with the piano, and that band with the ginger kid who is way too tall.
If I see you, how should I get your attention?
If I'm at my table, buy something! If I'm wandering the halls, a shout of "Floppy!" or "Flops!" or "You with the fez!" works.
Where will you be most of the time during the day/s?
Taaaabbblleee Beeeeeeeee Zerrrrooooo Siiixxxxx!!!
What/where will you be eating?
I might bring some hotel room food because I lost my job and am poor. Otherwise I'll be trying to keep it cheap or eating whatever other people give/buy for me.
Can I come with you for food/fun/etc?
It is a terrible thing to dine alone at AnthroCon. If we are talking and you have no plans for dinner, let me know. I'll see what we can do.
Can I take your picture?
If you can make it look good, be my guest. I rarely get my picture taken at conventions because I'm not one of those cool people wearing a carpet. Also, you are more than welcome to take pictures of my work, since it's 3D and you can't steal it like that ;3
What's your goal(s) for the con this year?
Sell art. Take orders. Chill with friends. Maybe, possibly, sneak away from my table to see some panels. ;_;
SEE YOU IN THE CITY OF STEEL!!

FAU?
Posted 12 years agoI went last year and had a pretty good time, so I went ahead and applied for the Dealer's Den this year. Mom's not able to commit to driving me up there like we did with the RV road trip last year, but I figured it'd be better to go ahead and grab a table while I can rather than waiting until the last minute. Worst case scenario, I'll just have to cancel it.
Anyway, I requested seats next to
peppercoyote and
hali and
fossil because I know they'll probably be there, but I don't really know any of the other dealers or who else will be there that I can hang out with! Holla if you be at FAU!
Anyway, I requested seats next to

And yes, I will of course be at Anthrocon. You can easily find me behind my table in the Dealer's Den. Come buy some pipeys and stuff!

10 People meme, one year later
Posted 13 years ago(Stolen from
witchiebunny again)
Write 10 things you want to say to 10 different people right now. Do not specify what belongs to who, and do not answer questions regarding to whom a statement might be directed. All are people I am watching on FA.
1. I wish we weren't both so busy, it's not right that we go to the same school and hardly ever see each other. I don't know if I would want to be in anything serious, but I do like spending time with you and wouldn't mind seeing where it might go.
2. I am SO happy for you and your mate. I can't wait to see you again in six months, though that seems like forever from now. Keep in touch, yeah? You're awfully busy too!
3. I hope you find someone who works out for you, I really do. You're not a bad person, it's just that you and I have very different interests and personalities. I don't like listening to you talk most of the time. Sorry.
4. You do wonders for my self esteem sometimes, you know that? Thanks so much for that, it's a rare thing for me. I really hope we get a chance to spend some time together before we're both all old and gross. Keep your chin up and remember that there ARE people out here who care about you!
5. Much of the same goes for you- when you feel unwanted or worthless, cut it out! You've got a fanbase, whether you asked for them or not, and we all care about you. You WILL find someone to call your own, but you've gotta make sure to do it on your own terms, not theirs. You've got a lot of talent and a lot of love to give.
6. I never quite know what you're looking for. Maybe you're not looking for anything at all, you seem pretty content most of the time, even without a significant other! Regardless, you are fun to hang out with most of the time, and I hope we get to do it again soon. Talk to me more, I enjoy insight into your head :3
7. I'm glad we got a chance to hang out more this time around, I feel like we could totally be BFFs if we weren't, you know, a continent apart. Keep being awesome, and I'll do my best to keep up!
8. Well, you made your choice, though I suppose you probably made it a long time ago and I was just deluding myself. Sometimes I get the feeling you regret it, though, and I wonder if you'll ever change your mind? Please don't sacrifice your happiness just to fit in.
9. You lead probably the busiest life out of all of us, and I would HATE to see it run you ragged. Please don't hesitate to delegate some things to your network of friends, we just want to help! Don't forget to take some time to relax and smell the fanboys, and maybe open yourself up to more than just one or two people, even if just a little bit at a time.
10. You remind me of myself sometimes, with how absentminded and immature we both can be. I hope that one day you'll be able to support yourself, so you won't have to rely on over-controlling relationships like you have been.

Regardless, you are fun to hang out with most of the time, and I hope we get to do it again soon. Talk to me more, I enjoy insight into your head :3
7. I'm glad we got a chance to hang out more this time around, I feel like we could totally be BFFs if we weren't, you know, a continent apart. Keep being awesome, and I'll do my best to keep up!
8. Well, you made your choice, though I suppose you probably made it a long time ago and I was just deluding myself. Sometimes I get the feeling you regret it, though, and I wonder if you'll ever change your mind? Please don't sacrifice your happiness just to fit in.
9. You lead probably the busiest life out of all of us, and I would HATE to see it run you ragged. Please don't hesitate to delegate some things to your network of friends, we just want to help! Don't forget to take some time to relax and smell the fanboys, and maybe open yourself up to more than just one or two people, even if just a little bit at a time.
10. You remind me of myself sometimes, with how absentminded and immature we both can be. I hope that one day you'll be able to support yourself, so you won't have to rely on over-controlling relationships like you have been.

Posted 13 years agoI'm at an impasse. On the one hand, I'd really like to see my specific body type represented artistically a lot more. I feel like maybe the artists I watch need better references of how to do that. (Or maybe I'm just not watching the right artists!) On the other hand, I'm far too modest/un-self-esteemed/shy to create any such references from myself. So like, is there a way to show off one's body without being like... naked and stuff?
Also, if anyone can figure out that upload problem I'm having, I'd greatly appreciate it. I'm kinda stuck until I can get it solved.

Trouble uploading?
Posted 13 years agoHey guys, quick question. I've got a collection of pictures I took at Anthrocon. I've been able to upload them so far on facebook, tumblr, and deviantart. But when I try to put them here on FA, or on Inkbunny, only certain ones are cooperative. The others refuse to upload- on Inkbunny they give me an error message, and here they just sit and load indefinitely.
Any idea what's going on?
