Altermatives for PayPal?
Posted 2 months agoAnybody know any decent alternatives to PayPal? I'm looking for alternatives in case things get fishy.
Checking in again, open for feedback.
Posted 9 months agoI have a couple of ideas and pictures on a backlog right now, but I am curious to ask what you guys want to see from me.
Either something I've done before, a (relatively) new idea to my table, my take on someone else's idea, or a mixture of sorts? Maybe a YCH, or just a "clean" pic for once?
I'm in between making pictures and willing to prioritize parts of my backlog just to see what happens.
I'm also open for commissions and art trades as well if anyone is curious: https://www.furaffinity.net/journal/10614476/
And as always, if there is anything I need to improve on, feel free to let me know.

Rewriting Hypnodiver Kioshi
Posted 10 months agoI got bored earlier last month reread "Hypnodiver Kioshi", but I've noticed a few errors and problems in my writing and decided to redo the story a bit.
I fixed some errors, removed excess stuff, redid a couple segments, and added a few things, hopefully to make the story easier to read and at least more entertaining as well.
I have already have a copy of the (soon to be) old version on a document, so if anyone wants to see the old version, I have it waiting somewhere.
I wanted to make sure you guys were informed before I do anything.

Personal advice for voting, with a side of vent.
Posted 11 months agoTL:DR: The big picture is a mess because lazy crybabies have nothing better to do. Help your state, your town, and yourself by focusing on the smaller picture, where you should be. Some people will appreciate you for it more than you think.
You really want this country to improve by voting?
Focus on electing your local and state governments, whoever is in your state government will matter more to you than whoever takes the white house.
The current national election is just an overglorified dumpster fire fueled by the news and the drama consumers they control. No matter who wins, they're going to cry about it for precious internet points and ad revenue. Screw the news, screw doombaiters, and screw drama consumers.
I have no sympathy for anyone who disguises their anger from "didn't get toys this Christmas" to "I blame this person because everyone else said so". I get that feeling, but I did that many years ago myself, and it didn't help me out in the long run. If this hyperfixation is unhealthy for me, then it is also be unhealthy for you too.
If you have the spare time to weaponize irony, emotionally blackmail people into doing your work, believe your own lies, and spit on those who are trying to help you out, then you have spare time to perform exercises, meditate, talk to people on a casual level, or just overall improve your behavior in general.
I get we're in rough times, but I am sick of the emotional blackmailing - so is everyone else, and so are you.
This is the digital information age; for once, at least use it to help yourself, for your own sake.
Any childish bait games, political tear-jerking, and any other appeal to emotion BS will be scrubbed with hell on a stick up the ass. Don't try me.

Random update with a side of vent.
Posted a year agoHey guys, just checking in and all. I've got a couple things to write down, mostly because I am bored and had a bit of an interesting month.
[I updated the journal title to avoid misleading. Sorry if it pinged.]
A quick TLDR: Archiving with a mess, venting from drama; it was a long July.
I have not been drawing for a while, mostly since I've been downloading countless pictures for the past month and a half.
To put a long story short as to why, I've heard Pixiv was performing a dumb rule change back in mid-June, and was supposedly going to be effective on August 1st. However, I believe I might have been tricked since I have NOT heard about anything else regarding it since, and it is probably not as stupid as it seemed, which means I have wasted an entire month and a half downloading pictures for no other reason than archiving.
Even stupider is that my browser started acting up over the sheer amount of downloads within the last week and a half, and deleting the download history up to a certain point causes it to freeze. I vigorously searched for how to fix this odd issue, and I may have amended it to some degree, I will still have to reinstall the browser just to hopefully fix the issue itself.
While I spent most of the month downloading pictures, I've also tried to find other forms of entertainment. Trepang2 released a sweet DLC pack and I gave it a good go for the past week.
As for social issues, having to deal with a bunch of melodramatic bitches who whine over stuff that doesn't apply to them, and then try to come up with magic, whimsical, sensationalistic, movie-trailer-esque excuses on "why we should care", isn't very fun.
I get we're in tough times, but do people really have to copycat news, crying crocodile tears, shaming and out-ironying opposing views, manipulating silverspooned adult children into wrecking their own lives for a FOMO-induced cause that is almost literally thrown away by the following week? Are you social media addicts users THAT spoiled?
All this crap simply boils down to crying for attention. You don't get anything out of it. Not even your like count is enough to make up for it. It means people liked your comment, not you, specifically.
Your life is what it is, whether it's boring, rough, ridiculous, mundane, or otherwise, and you can still make the best of it, but is any of that crap not good enough for you, and enough of an excuse to make life worse for others, instead of helping yourself get better at mundane things in life?
To say the least, It's been a long month, but I'm glad to get all that mess off my chest.
I might make a YCH deal of some kind down the road, we'll just see what happens.

I have a friend who needs some help.
Posted a year agoI have a friend who's been unemployed for a bit and probably is in a depression. I thought it would be nice to do a little signal boosting today. Anyone willing to help him out?

How about a YCH or two?
Posted 2 years agoI've been thinking about doing YCH commissions for a while. I'm open for notes for how to do a YCH. Any feedback from the commissions are also welcome.
Here are a couple ideas I have so far...
Maskhugger minion - Your character standing to attention while wearing a custom maskhugger.
Group hypnosis - A group of characters look at a pendulum or a hypnotic gem.
Alice-ification - Alice puts a copy of her helmet on your character, transforming them into a "copy" of her.
If anyone else has any additional ideas, feel free to let me know.

Open for Commissions [Update 5]
Posted 2 years agoUpdate 5: Added more examples overall, clarified the stacking rule, and slight increase to the price - the average price should remain similar.
Prices
Lineart - $14
Colored - $16
Shaded - $20

https://www.furaffinity.net/view/58676209/
https://www.furaffinity.net/view/59303978/
Prices can increase up to +$4 depending on the complexity.
Simple backgrounds - Free!

https://www.furaffinity.net/view/41987563/
https://www.furaffinity.net/view/59987533/
Detailed backgrounds - +$4 to +$7 - Please provide a reference picture.

https://www.furaffinity.net/view/60067274
https://www.furaffinity.net/view/60604825
Per character - +$3 to +$5
Per variant - +$1 to +$6
I have a unique "stacking rule" for the use of characters and variants. I will explain that in a bit.
Half-bodies are 10% off. Portraits are 25%.
This discount will apply with every variant affected by it!
Examples
For a colored picture with a minor background and featuring two characters, that is $19. If it's a half body picture, the total is reduced to $17.10.
Adding a variant of the half-body picture will normally be at +$2, but will be reduced to +$1.80, totaling to $18.90.
Comics - +$4 per panel
Comic commissions will cost the same as a regular commission, but every panel will have a starting cost of +$4 and may increase depending on the complexity. Half-body and portrait discounts will automatically apply per panel, but at half strength. (5% and 12% respectively)
Blood - +$4
Bleeding, scrapes, and non-lethal wounds are allowed, but must be kept at or under the "+15 level". Anything above (including gore, dismemberment, and death/snuff) will fall under the NSFW category.
Fetish & NSFW - +$6
Fetish and NSFW content will be given an immediate bump in price. These two have a tendency to get blurred, so they will fall under the same category.
I understand the popularity of this type of work, but personally, I would also like to try and make some clean stuff every once and a while. Sorry~ >w>'
Background, Blood, and NSFW prices will only apply once per commission. Additional pictures containing such content will not increase the overall price.
Stacking rule
Here is an example of my stacking rule...
You're commissioning a colored commission with a minor background and two characters, the starting price will be $21. The second character will serve as the first "slot". If you want to add a variant of the picture with the two characters, the price will not increase. The variant shares the same "slot" as the second character.
Adding a third character to the commission will add $3, increasing the price to $24; this also adds another "slot". If you add a second variant with the third character, the second variant will share the same "slot". The second variant is more complex than the third character (As an example, $5), which will increase the price to $26. The second variant shares the same "slot" as the third character, so only $2 was added to the final price.
The first variant will not add to the price since the second character is the most expensive item in the "slot", while the second variant will add to it since it's more expensive than the third character. That is where the "stacking" rule comes into play.
This rule may sound complex at first, but it could work wonders for those who want more characters and/or variants at a cheaper price.
Notes and Restrictions
Mixing blood with pr0nz MUST be discussed beforehand. Context is key. ...Right?
Characters aged under 18 (or "juvenile characters") is permitted, but it must be discussed.
A commission featuring such characters with the Blood addition is okay, but still must be discussed for safety reasons.
I cannot draw juvenile characters if the commission is NSFW. They can be aged up, but otherwise, no deal.
No watersports, scat, or diapers. Not my thing.
[Reserved for commission themes that might be overused in the near future. I can get exhausted with certain themes. You'll never know until it happens. I won't either. lol.]
No "hate commissions" (IE: a picture targeting someone or group). Do not make me go further on that.
Tips for newcomers
It is highly recommended that you plan out your commission before first sending it.
Be sure to add proper information, such as ref sheets with a clear and easy-to-understand description. Make sure you put it all in as few messages as possible. You can practice by using a typing program beforehand, such as Google Docs or Microsoft Word.
Be prepared to point out any issues that need to be addressed and fixed as soon as possible, such as any missed or outdated details. Don't hold back any necessary fixes until it's too late, I'd be more than happy to fix anything I may have missed, such as a tail, a missing stripe on a shoe, a logo on a banner, and/or so on. Always avoid potential risks of ambiguity when writing your commission order.
This can help save time (and perhaps a few headaches) for both you and the fellow artist as a result.
Terms of Service
Sonic-type anatomy (AKA Mobians) may be my standard, but I am open to draw "standard looking" Pokemon, furries, humans, and other forms as well, but expect a slower process and potentially more errors as I am not used to drawing them.
Any species that is outside of FurAffinity's guidelines will have to be posted elsewhere.
I would prefer to be contacted through FA's notes. Other options are okay if they are necessary.
Payment will usually be discussed around the halfway point, such as after a sketch or before lineart, and will be addressed when near completion. The commission would be postponed until then.
Payments are usually sent through PayPal. If you have another method, feel free to discuss.
If you're going to use my pictures for anything, please inform me beforehand and give credit back. If you're intending to profit off of it, that must be discussed.
However, you are forbidden to use my content on NFTs or for AI-generation software. If you can copy a picture, you don't need to ask me to copy one for you.
I reserve the right to deny any commission that is deemed unsuitable according to the guidelines, or for personal reasons if needed.
If you have any questions, or any other pointers, feel free to let me know.

Mandatory "FA is this and I am also somewhere else" Journ...
Posted 2 years agoHere are a couple links of where you can also find me if FA's mods suddenly change their coming regulations for no reason.
Weasyl: https://www.weasyl.com/~homerboy4
SoFurry: https://homerboy4.sofurry.com
Inkbunny: https://inkbunny.net/Homerboy4
Newgrounds: https://homerboy4.newgrounds.com
DeviantArt: https://www.deviantart.com/homerboy4
As expected, my activity on those websites are less than what you expect here, but I might use PostyBirb for some of them as a just-in-case.
Also, I'm still on standby to make commissions, but due to real life stuff, that will most likely have to wait until later next month.
SEVERAL FUN FACTS
I actually made a SoFurry account back in 2013, but I never actually verified it until last month. LOL
I've stopped uploading legit stuff on DeviantArt. I might drop one more "relevancy-based" s69tpost on that website, then resuming to normal operations on there if I get bored enough. Can't exactly forgive the staff for the crap they pulled, nor the parent company pulling their strings, but I'm giving lesser sympathy for DA's community as well.
InkBunny has claimed to be banning SourceFilmmaker pictures earlier last year, and yet I still see them being uploaded on a regular basis. I've yet to hear anything else regarding that rule. All bark and relying on others to do the biting for them. LMAO.
Until then, keep searching, and farewell.

I've been thinking about doing commissions again.
Posted 2 years agoAs the journal title said, I've been thinking about doing commissions for a bit.
Should I do it the normal way, with slots, or a YCH?
Feel free to let me know. Any ideas are also welcome.

I guess I'm on a hiatus for now...
Posted 3 years agoI'm pretty sure some of you are aware of my activity on both DeviantArt and FurAffinity right now, but for those who kept my journals muted, my mental health has been relatively low for the past few months.
I haven't been drawing since "The AI Crisis" from September last year. Not because of the useless and fad-driven robots, but those attention-seeking, spam-reliant assholes instead.
(That and the constant "perfect timing" crap that orchestrated it. One of my previous journals should be raving like mad about why... I finished that comic with Kioshi back in October, and that shitstorm is what I'm "congratulated" for.)
The consecutive shitstorms within the three months afterwards have really put a toll on me, and I've reached my breaking point in December. I lashed out at some of my own friends for it, and I've inadvertently burned a couple bridges in the process. I am thoroughly disgusted about what I've done, and I know I won't be easily forgiven about it.
I've held up my anger for so long, I even had the balls to start unwatching people for the slightest of infractions. I've unwatched so many people within the past few months that it's not even funny.
Since the incident in early December, I've been improving bit by bit for the past few weeks, taking every day in my own stride, getting better at focusing on other things that matter more.
Even with what I'm doing, regarding how I feel right now, I don't feel new, proud, or even happy. I don't feel anything except a leash had snapped and I'm running loose, destroying things left and right, for better or for worse.
Overall, I refuse to quit drawing, but breaks are mandatory of course. I'll keep in touch when needed.
...
And I just wish that I am not greeted with another shitstorm of bullshit whenever I TRY to get back into drawing.
Just typing that in to ensure "something that's watching me" is paying attention. Fucking mindgames. : |
[Edit: Had a mental breakdown with YouTube's mediocre policies and clickbaiter shitheads RIGHT AFTER I POSTED THIS. FUCKING CALLED IT. : | ]

Overall, I refuse to quit drawing, but breaks are mandatory of course. I'll keep in touch when needed.
...
And I just wish that I am not greeted with another shitstorm of bullshit whenever I TRY to get back into drawing.
Just typing that in to ensure "something that's watching me" is paying attention. Fucking mindgames. : |
[Edit: Had a mental breakdown with YouTube's mediocre policies and clickbaiter shitheads RIGHT AFTER I POSTED THIS. FUCKING CALLED IT. : | ]

"OMG THEY PUT MASTER CHIEF ON MOUNTAIN DEW WERE FUCKING DOOMED"

The 343 crap is unrelated, stop giving reasons to whine, or I'll whine back at you.

Posted 3 years agoDystopia.
What? Everyone else is saying it! Should I say it as well "look cool" "and get likes" "like you guys" despite the fact that getting likes for dooming IS ONLY ON TWITTER?
...
Actually, fuck it. I'm done holding back my anger.
I SAID DYSTOPIA!!! I SAID DYSTOPIA!!! AM I COOL YET!? AM I FUCKING COOL LIKE YOU DOOMERS AND COMPLAINERS YET!?
RUNNING A FUCKING WEBSITE IS HARD AND EXPENSIVE ENOUGH, AND YOUR COMPLAINTS ABOUT UPDATES UPON EVERY FUCKING UPDATE IS TAXING ENOUGH AS IS.
DO YOU GUYS WANT MORE OF MY SIGNATURE MENTAL BREAKDOWNS!? NO!? THEN STOP COMPLAINING ON US AND SEND IT STRAIGHT BACK TO THEM!!
Oh, by the way, this is all because I only saw ONE GUY complained about it on my journal feed. So, that ""technically"" means MORE are coming. AGAIN.
Can't wait to fucking lose it on this website so I can get banned from it and relieve myself of these fucking complainers, because I'm tired of taking it out on my friends on Discord.
I'm not kidding when I say that. I've destroyed a lot of friendships all because they were the bringer of bad news, but now I'm heading for the fucking source: YOU GUYS and your "I MADE AN UNHAPPY DOOMER COMMENT LIKE IT BECAUSE ITS TWITTER" comments.
Once again, YOU WANT ME TO STOP MAKING ART HERE? THEN KEEP YOUR STUPID COMPLAINTS UP AND BAN ME FOR LASHING BACK AT YOU. I'M DONE WITH HOLDING BACK THIS SHIT. EVERY FUCKING WEBSITE IVE BEEN NOW HAS NOTHING BUT PEOPLE WHINING ABOUT THE SMALLEST BIT(che)S OF THINGS. I CAN'T EVEN ENJOY ANYTHING ANYMORE WITHOUT WORRYING ABOUT SOME WHINY JACKASS WAITING TO JUMP THE FUCK OUT OF THE CORNER WITH THE 123456789TH FUCKING COMPLAINT THEY HAVE TO SHOVE DOWN MY THROAT.
YOU WANNA FUCKING FIGHT ME? I'LL BRING A FUCKING TRUCK LOAD OF SHIT ON YOU IF YOU THINK THAT COMPLAIONING ON THE FUCKING WEBSITE IS GOING TO FUCKING HELP ONE BIT.
I DON'T CARE IF YOU GUYS CLAIM I'M "not helping and making it worse", YOU GUYS NEED TO START REDIRECTING YOUR SHIT AT THE DEVELOPERS, NOT AT THE FUCKING CUSTOMERS WHO JUST WANT TO ENJOY CONTENT, OR I'LL MAKE YOU LEARN IT FUCKING HARD WAY, BY ACTING LIKE YOU GUYS, BUT EVEN MORE ANNOYING AND USELESS, BECAUSE THAT'S THE FUCKING META OF HOW THESE STUPID ANNOYING COMPLAINT JOURNALS WORK.
SEND THOSE COMPLAINTS BACK TO THEM, OR I'LL MAKE A LIVING (hell) OFF OF IT TO MAKE WORSE FOR EVERYONE. GOT IT?

Posted 3 years agoGood. You opened this message. This isn't actually asari military command. They're busy tending to what's left of their planet.
So you survived our fight on Thessia. You're not as weak as I thought. But never forget that your best wasn't good enough to stop me. Now an entire planet is dying because you lacked the strength to win. The legend of Shepard needs to be re-written. I hope I'm there for the last chapter. It ends with your death.

Joke's over. But as an act of mercy...
I know a lot in hindsight, but right now, I don't give a damn who voted for what. Stop bothering me, or stay away.

Posted 3 years agoYuep, I can't take it anymore. I'm venting. I surrender. I'm fucking venting. Happy, world? Want me to continue like this? Want me to continue venting instead of letting me do my hobbies?
I am trying to get back into drawing. Every time I do so, something stupid or bad happens. I've noticed this pattern for a good while, and I'm starting to "get" it.
I took a month to draw countless characters in one picture, and as soon as I finished, Russia invades the Ukraine.At least we all know how that's going. Hats off to Ukraine, and up yours and enjoy your version of Vietnam, Pudding. Ungrateful bastard.
I started drawing a comic, I get peltered with my friends overreacting to a news article regarding Back To The Future "remake" when it was really a Broadway/play adaptation. This overreaction is EXACTLY what news websites want. Fucking puppets.
I try making a simple drawing, I then search up "freeways" out of curiosity, I see a news article of "freeways being racist". "UMG THIS IS RACIST BECAUSE I SAY SO WAAAAH". Attention seeking LOSER.
I do a little cosplaying while drawing, a neighbor dies. She had medical problems prior, but what the hell???
I'm tracing an old picture, the Queen of England fucking dies. HOW???
I continue tracing the old picture, then I make a base out of it and put another character on it as a form of "resilience", and I see a friend complaining about DA shoving another feature into the Core wall AND someone I watch complains about InkBunny "*banning" SFM pictures. Some of you saw my previous journal, that was in light of it. Double combo, two bullshits in one. My fucking favorite.
*TL;DR, from what I could gather, Source Film Maker pictures showing models not made by the artists are the ones getting deleted. Official models from games, not made by the artists themselves. Aside from "copyright excuses", hell if I know why they did something obviously loophole-filled like that. Just get fucking Blender, MMD, or a fucking game snapshot and they won't bat an eye.
Today? Same as the last, resiliently continuing to draw for the sake of it. I then wanted to find out if jellyfish use electricity, I get a Quora ad explaining how Google spies on us outside of their website, a mandatory reminder how [e]corporations are ruling us[/e]. Thanks, DuckDuckGo, I totally needed that information that may be totally not skewered while I'm doing something totally not innocent. Totally.
WOAH GUYS! I said "totally" on a successive basis, and all in ironic manner, AND I SAID SOMETHING AN UNHAPPY AND DREADFUL MANER, just like YOU GUYS!! Laugh! I EVEN EMPHASISED IT SO YOU CAN SEE IT AND FEEL DREADFUL FASTER!! It took me like 5 seconds to come up with it! Please laugh! : |
This goddamn problem has been going on for YEARS. I swear, it's like a fucking curse! As soon as I get back into in drawing, and I get peltered with bullshit and nonsense, Every, fucking, time!! I swear, this world WANTS me to stop drawing!!
If this stupid world wants me to stop drawing, then it will need me to commit suicide! Up your ass, world! Eat my fucking dirt!! Do your fucking worst!!
TL:DR
I don't understand why drawing should be punished with constant annoyance. I'm fucking pissed. I just want to fucking draw. That's it. Period. No excuses.

Well... This week has been a mess...
Posted 3 years agoLast week, I lost my Discord account due to terrible mishandling on my part, and then I've heard that FA's mods are going nuts against their own users for some reason.
I've been thinking about uploading more of my stuff to other websites as well. Copy and pasting stuff to other websites isn't hard, just tedious AF...
In a nutshell, things have been okay, despite what happened. I'm just a bit overwhelmed is all...

Commissions closed, for now.
Posted 4 years agoTo be honest, activity for me hasn't been the greatest. I haven't been drawing very much for the past few months, as I've been pretty busy in life.
Not sure what else to say, but I'd like to thank those who have participated.

Quick check in.
Posted 4 years agoHow's everyone doing today? A bit of a rough month for me, but I'm still trying to hold on as best as I can.
And a quick two questions for curiosity.
Is there anything I can do to improve upon?
and which of my work is your favorite so far?

Possible Commissions?
Posted 5 years agoI was wondering about making commissions earlier this past week...
Perhaps I could open some; under a rather small slot number though since I'm still new to this stuff.

Uh, quick question...
Posted 5 years agoWhen youre updating a picture here on FA, does that ping the watchers?
Welp, I think I'm staying here now.
Posted 5 years agoSeems like the devs on DA thrive on toxicity now since I can only delete toxic journals and status updates one by one instead of some "delete all" button...
At least the FurAffinity's devs care more about keeping their website up than setting up a "website bomb" of some kind...
...Anyways I might move some of my old DA gallery to here within the next few months, if I get bored enough...
Until then, see you later.
