Some of you might know I've been having tablet/computer issues for the past like 6 months. :/ and at the current moment my laptop is really on its last legs. I can't use it for much anymore, but it's okay, the bab is 6 years old and has a been kind to me for the most part.

However my cousin gifted me his old setup, it should be hefty enough to handle everything I need to do computerwise. Issue is I need to replace the hard drive and been trying to get one old of an older kaput laptop. Which is horribly stuck. BUT I should have it up and running soon so I can finally go back to arting. I miss it so. :U

But yeah, fingers crossed for art influx soon? U seriously want to finish some old comms I feel horrible about them sitting. It just takes twice to like three times as long now, even on a good day. :(

But hopefully it'll all be fixed this week.

I'm starting to get seriously back into needlefelt and I'm curious if you guys would be interested in streams like that? I know people do sewing streams.

I'd have to find a Webcam I could pose, and I'm super awkward about showing my face so it'd probably be hands only.

I dunno, what do you guys think?

does anyone have any they're willing to either sell or trade? I love the babs so much and I'm trying to get 12, each one named after a month of the year.

help me complete my collectionnn. I have 5 so far so I need 7 more.

I finally have a some extra money to burn so I'm getting an ad here and I want people's opinions to help me out. I want to get properly active here, like I used to be. (Also I've had an ad before, I know the nonsense behind it, really been wanting another for ages)

Pretty much which peices in my gallery do you think are eye catching or would be good on the ad?
Is there a medium I should focus on? Like pixel or digital, or crafts? Or what type of comms?
And do you often click on the ads on Fa if you have ad block off?

Also if you guys answer all these, drop a ref, I'll add a few of you to my warm up sketches list.

BUT THANK YOU!!

I'm working on comms right now and want some other babs to sketch when I need a break, so drop me a ref and I'll do a little sketch or maybe really basic coloured piece.

I plan to be up for a bit more so gimme all the cutiessss.

I'm home sick and trying to work on owed things, but I want a break soon, so anything you guys would be interested in?

Sorry all for being quiet and like taking some time to get stuff done.

I've been really busy of late abd like really stressed out and I think my depression is cropping up again. I'm gonna try to get more stuff done this week however. Maybe stream?? I kinda want to stream. ;;0;;

But yeah, sorry guys, I'll be trying to post more soon.

Mkay so some of you guys might remember me asking about interest in win a day or night with my characters. And I want to see again who people liked, cause I might post one tonight.

Just tell me if you'd have interest, which babs and you preferance on if it should be flat sale, auction or raffle? Also what you'd be interested with the babs. (Day is cutsey sfw stuff, night is sexy nsfw stuff)

Also Mary Anne is day only because yeah.

I'm gonna be there tomorrow getting all the plants. I'm so excited, been saving up for a few months so I can get some new orchids.

Anyone else going to it or ever heard of it? Its like lwgit worth it if you like plants and gardening.

I want to draw some pixel things tonight, like pixel headshots and stuff. So I think I'll do a freebie.

Just drop me one ref and maybe a like basic theme. Ex: nautical, flowers, winter, summer, etc.

It's been some time since I've done them and I miss them. So curious if you guys would want them brought back.

Here's examples if you don't know them: http://sta.sh/21t9dv9uhixp?edit=1

How much do you think is fair for them? They have a lot of work put in so I would like to charge around 20$ but just curious what you guys think.

Also how should I sell them? Premade designs or flatsale or auction or like just by custom slots?

Comments are much apperciated!!

So I know of storenavy, etsy and redbubble, but the only one I have exprience with is etsy. And I want to set up my store and social medias to be more serious about all this art stuff. So which have you had better expriences with? Also all my merch is made in house. I know some of the sites print it for you and you get some of the profit.

Sorry for the massive delays on the raffle results, I was sick all new year's weekend and I've had issues with my tablet/computer. I wanted to make a really cool drawn up thing but tbh I lost the drive to do so at this point, I just want you guys to know the winners!

First winner is !
You get a detailed cheeb piece, up to two characters. ;;u;;

Second winner is !
You get a custom character, front and back ref! <3333

Third winner is !
You get either a pixel badge or three pixel icons! :DDD

Thank you everyone that entered and for telling me all your awesome resolutions. I hope your years are going well so far! ;;u;;

Can the winners please note me with their info and refs, if you are at all in need of info we'll talk it out over note. <33333

THANK YOU EVERYONE.

Okay, so I'm trying to finish my queue before new year's. It's a kinda busy time tbh but I'm gonna try. But with that in mind, I want to host another raffle for some freebies. I want to give back to my watchers.

Pretty much I'm thinking of raffling off three seperate prizes, and you can apply to all three but only win one. The three prizes are as follows:

1. Detailed cheeb peice, up to 2 characters, perferred sfw.
2. Custom character design front and back view, can have nsfw elements.
3. Full pixel badge or 3 pixel icons.

You have to be a watcher to join! All I want is you to be watching me and what you're excited for in the coming year or a new years resolution.

I will close this journal for picking on new years eve!

EDIT: The raffle is officially closed! I will be going through and picking the winners soon. ;;u;; I'll announce results tomorrow. Thank you everyone that joined and for telling me all your stories and wishes. I hope things go well for all of you in all your endeavors. I'll try to reply to some of the comments that stood out soon, if I can't just know I read your comments, every single one. <3333

I need to have a bit of distraction when I get home, so anyone want to do a quick trade? It'll be worked on tonight inbetween commissions. Probably a coloured sketch or quick icon or cheeb.

Any babs from here are what I'd want drawn. OuO

Just comment belowww.

I'm a sucker for farm games and when multiplayer is finally released it'd be cool to have a buddy to play with.

But actually looking for anyone who plays that might have a character that could chill with mary anne and do some farm work. :D I kinda want to do a freebie doodle with her and someone else. So maybe drop a ref and fave thing to do in the game, mine is mining and foraging.

As the title says, I want to know what my watchers like and dislike about my art. I really want to figure out what are my strong and weak points because I've been so up and down with my art the past few months. Its really messing with me.

So give me your opinions, I won't be defensive unless you are unnesscarly rude. But yeah I need to know what needs improvement.

So I def want to make a batch tonight, excited cause the game is outttt. But does anyone have ideas of what they want to see? I've been trying to come up with ideas for them and I have a few, curious what you guys want to see.

I'm curious if anyone would want some. Especially since fallout comes out tomorrow. OMG so excited. I still haven't bought it tho lol.

But yeah, fallout icons? If there's some interest I'll put out a batch tonight after I finish some food icons.

Like legit cookies, with your characters on them. I know it's not lasting art but it'd be hella awesome to try out. Tho I know there are laws and regulations on selling food.

I'm just taking interest right now. OuO

So I'm curious guys, what do you want to see in my gallery more? What did you watch me for and would you like to see it more?

My queue is nearly cleared and I want to put out some ychs, so I want to get some feedback!

So a fellow artist and overall good person has been going through a lot recently, but her sweetheart of a dog got attacked. The poor pup needs a vet visit and Mana can't afford it right now due to a lot of personal circumstances. Her pup needs help, please take a look and maybe donate or spread the word.

Also, I want to offer something to donators, for any donation 15$ or over I will do a free pixel icon for you. I just need proof that you donated. I'll do this for as many people as I can. And you can pick any of my styles and get animation with it too.

The people in my area of Philly celebrate every holiday with fireworks. They've been going off randomly for the past two hours. Wtf? :'D

How's everyone's Halloween so far?

So I'll be working on a new icon batch tonight seeing as I have only two icons left to do. But I want to know what you guys want to see!

If it's doable it'll probably be on the batch. Which they're gonna be batches of six from now on. Easier to handle.
