Howdy folks! Just throwing this out here that if you wanna chat with me on Discord, send me a note and we can get that going. I'm also on skype sorta, that info is down below if that's still your choice of messenger.

PS if you're that dude that made the bombjackal f-list thing, thanks for respecting my wishes, I mean you had pretty much my interests down haha. So I'd like to send you a personal hello!

Also double reminder, I am not terribly active here anymore, check out my twitter accounts instead!

Hello there! I've decided I wanted to do a little write up of some info and my thoughts surrounding one of my characters considering I've noticed a spike in interest lately. Hopefully this will answer some questions a few people have.

First up is, I've heard some people unsure of who owns Bombjackal, and yep he's my boy. It started off with me teasing a friend about explosive animals, so I thought "bomb + jackal?" I did a few test sketches, said friend drew him back and we did a little bit of back and forth until I got down a design I liked. The name, however, is sorta a place holder. I wanted to give him an actual name but I've been using that for so long it feels natural.

What happens when the fuse burns down? Something I've left intentionally vague because I think the allure of mystery works there. It also allows people to project whatever they like there, from the obvious "he explodes" to a metaphorical explosive growth

Can I make my own bomb character? Oh boy, this is the biggest one and trickiest for me to answer. I'll start off with, I don't own the concept of an explosive themed character, plenty of others have done that before and plenty more after. But, I did not design his looks to be a template for others characters. Even there I feel there's a lot of grey area and that's whats hard for me to give a direct answer. Fuse tail, skull marking, stylized jackal, these elements alone don't define him but it's the sum of them that works together that I feel makes my character.

So it's really hard for me to give a "yes/no" answer to that. I don't want to be a jerk telling people no to working on creative endeavors but I also want to feel comfortable with my own creations.

Anyway, I think that covers all my current thoughts! If you've got anything to ask please feel free to here, in notes or anywhere else you want to reach me. Thank you for reading!

Well welcome back everyone, fun times huh? While I'll still be keeping a presence around here I'd like to point out where else you can find me!

Weasyl, which at this point, I will be posting more to and even stuff that WON'T be found here: https://www.weasyl.com/~damon

Twitter, I am quite active and often post doodles with a side of social junk: https://twitter.com/DamonDingo

And I am also around on Skype, see my profile for that. I will be setting up a telegram account at some point. Just got to jump through those extra hoops to get it working with a virtual number.

And on a last note, I am not going to be doing a poll for the monthly theme picture. Going to take executive action and try to draw them all because I like the sound of the suggestions given.

Hey everyone, just letting you know I am still chipping away at my workload here, there was some folks that haven't sent me a note on what they'd like to see. If you're interested, go ahead and let me know otherwise I'll hit you up when I can get started on yours promptly! After this batch I am kind of feelin' some art trades and another round of commissions.

Also hey it's that tuesday thing, lets do the tuesday thing where you ask me questions!

Sorry for the delay! Here's this month's theme vote.

And while we are at it, go on and ask me those questions that have been weighing on your mind!

Hello everyone, while I am busy working on my own set currently, a good pal of mine has also opened up for them recently! I know quite a few of you enjoy the puffy stuff I do, which I recommend you go check out  doggler and he'll set you up with some good big stuff!

Going to be taking a few $20 sketch commissions to get back into the groove of'em. Send me a note if you're interested! If you are a patreon of mine, we can talk about a discount too.

Also again, if you've asked me before if I was open and said I wasn't, do let me know and I'll give you higher priority!

Have you asked me about a commission in the past? if so, please let me know! I am going to be getting to those and I am just looking up everyone that's asked me before about them!

Also hey ask me questions!

WHOOPS sorry this slipped my mind, put in votes for something to appear here in a drawn format!!

http://strawpoll.me/7147350

Hey it's been a while since I did one of these, ask me questions!

So I am trying something new here, took suggestions for a picture for the month and putting those suggestions up for a vote! So let me know what thing interests you the most! http://strawpoll.me/6839763

Also I have been having a lot of fun doing public drawpiles, last few runs have went pretty well. I've been announcing them on my twitter as they happen so peek at that if you're curious. And hey if you follow you can keep track of all the various doodles I don't post here, hooray!

It's been brought to my attention that there have been some people that made some fake pledges to get access to my patreon. I'm pretty familiar with most of the people on there and I removed some suspicious pledges. If any of them were honest give me a heads up.

I guess it's kind of flattering people want to see my stuff that bad but I'm going to be posting it sheesh! GRUMBLE GRUMBLE

Hey ask me questions!!

I've been thinking about going through some older stuff I've done here and giving it a fresh new look, or just finishing some older stuff I've posted in the scraps. I'm curious to hear your input on what specific images here you'd like to see me redo!

Also since it's been a while, feel free to do that TMI thing here.

Ask me things!

Ey ask me things, I will answer!~

Hey hey! I'm here with another lil' update on what's been going down!

First order of business, commission business! ... which is to say they are filled up now, thanks again!

Next up, patreon stuff. I went through my page and put more thoughts into my goal and the purpose of the page. There's lots of milestones I am excited to reach and reward tiers! Please have a look through and spread the word if you want!

And finally if you're still reading, feel free to ask me any of those TMI tuesday questions!

Hello there! Much like the many, many other artists out there, I've started up a pateron! For the moment, it's nothing fancy but going to get something more elaborate come next month. Also worry not folks! I have no intentions of keeping my art behind a paywall, the farthest it might go is timed exclusives. Beyond that, I have been drawing more and I want to keep up with sharing it!

In other news, I've found my more interested in twitter than I expected. If you like seeing doodles and such from me, I try to post something every morning. So stop by there, the info is in my contact info. I don't think I've mentioned I've got a weasyl account which I am trying to be more active on as well. Again the info there is down at the bottom.

Thank you all for reading this and have a wonderful day!

It's Tuesday right? Well lets get another one of these going!

Mornin' everyone! Time to start this round of commissions again! Same deal as before, just send me a note about the details and I'll get back to you. However, this time getting colored stuff is an option! Got something I did for you in a previous round and want me to color that up? I can do that for you too! Again, thank you all for your support!

All filled up! Notes should be sent out to all those that got a slot, thank you for your interest!

So hey! Just a thing I am curious about and wanted to hear your thoughts on. I am an artist of MANY INTERESTS, kind of all over the place, so I am wondering what brought you here to watch me. Tell me the themes, subjects and so on that keeps you watchin here. Thank you all in advance for taking your time here to respond!

Hey these are still fun! As usually ask whatever you want to know about me!

Unrelated, I'll probably open commissions back up sometime this week (if not later tonight), won't take as many, have colored options and the last run of PWYW. It's been pretty helpful for gauging how to price my stuff, so stay tuned!

Time for another run of these! Pretty much same deal as last time, send me a note with your idea and I'll get back to you on'em! This has been pretty helpful for gauging a price for my stuff and soon enough colored stuff will be an option too.

Alright I got a suitable amount! Thank you all again for your patronage <3

I had a buncha fun answering all of your questions last week, so here's another round of that! Feel free to ask me whatever is on your mind~
