18+ Alt Account
Posted 2 years agoMade an 18+ account over here. I figured some folks would appreciate the separation.
Nothing there yet, but there should be soon. It's for the particularly spicy stuff, and may contain weird and potentially problematic kinks, as well as erotic horror. Non-sexual nudity, mild to moderate suggestive themes and general horror will still be posted on this account.
Underage users or users that don't in some way specify that they are 18+ on their profile will be blocked from the HookeAtNite account upon attempting to interact or follow. You're fine on this one, though.

Commission Waitlist CLOSED
Posted 4 years agoSUP Y'ALL. I'm opening a waitlist for my next batch of commissions. Please post below to request a spot. Since more than five folks have applied, I will assign numbers and randomly roll for slots when the time comes.
PLEASE NOTE: It might be a little bit before my current batch is done, as I have some large pieces to complete. You do not need to send character info until I contact you about beginning your piece, but if you'd like to leave a (single) link to a ref in your comment so that I can brainstorm, that'd be righteous.
Cross posted to other galleries.

Posted 5 years agoBlack Lives Matter Resources
Posted 5 years agoI thought it might be helpful to post some of the resources I've found. I stand with the movement, and I encourage everyone to do the same. Use your voice if you can, in any way you can.
A way to provide support for those who don't have money/can't go outside:

Note to Underage Followers (AO Changes)
Posted 5 years agoPlease do not take this personally. Blocking folks honestly makes me feel terrible, and I welcome you in my non-AO galleries.
If you are underage but do not indicate that fact on your profile, I respectfully request that you unfollow of your own accord.

Gallery Update, AO (18+)

http://instagram.com/bghookeart
https://twitter.com/bghookeart
These galleries do still contain the occasional artistic nudity and horror themes, but no explicit sexual imagery.
Over the next several days/couple weeks I will be going through my contacts and removing individuals listed as under 18. If you have not removed me from your watch list by a certain time (TBD), I will have to block you on this site. Please do not take this personally.
Thanks for your understanding, bbs. <3

SIGNAL BOOST: Shikoba's Raffle
Posted 12 years agoSIGNAL BOOST: MenouFire's Halloween Raffle
Posted 12 years agoYeah, aight, I'll do this thing. FA meme, ahoy.
Posted 12 years ago1. Why did you join FurAffinity?
I think I joined on a lark, after a friend showed me his gallery. Didn't really use it until recently, though. About when I started taking Furc commissions in earnest.
2. What does your username have to do with you?
It's from B. G. Hooke. Which is me. Hyyeeap.
3. What is your current avatar of?
MY FACE.
4. How many watchers do you have, and how many do you watch?
Uh, shit, let me look. I've got... 115 watchers? I watch 82 folks.
5. Do you have more than one account?
Not on FA, no. But I do have pretty much identical accounts to this one on dA and Weasyl.
6. Name 3 of your favorite artists on FA.
What do you mean, only three? I CAN'T TAKE THAT KIND OF PRESSURE, MAN. I'M NOT A DECISIVE PERSON.
7. What artist do you admire because of their personality?
Hell. Many. I admire my partner, Isolationary (of dA), for his almost unwavering positivity and ability to find joy and even humour in the face of difficulty. I admire the lovely Ferabird for her maturity, cool-headedness and seemingly unending kindness and patience. I admire Alluvial for her patience, generosity and warm, welcoming attitude... damn. I mean, srsly, there are a lot. Pretty much, if I know you, I likely admire you, and can and will expound upon why if you ask me to. Seriously, send me a note and I will baste you in complements.
8. Do you comment, fave, or both?
Both, bro.
9. What do you typically post on FA?
More or less the same shite I post on my dA and Weasyl accounts. Reams of Furcadia portrait commissions, mostly. With the occasional sprinkling of personal work and non-port art.
10.What's your favorite submission in your gallery?
EHHHH. GOSH.
In terms of ports: I, II, III, IV, V, VI.
Other stuff: I, II, III, IV.
... What do you mean, "choose one thing"?
11. What are the things you wish you could draw better?
Pretty much everything. Open mouths. The bottoms of chins. Backgrounds. And, you know. I'm obligated as an artist to say hands.
12. How many hours a day do you spend on FA?
Ehh. Maybe one, if just to check messages. Sometimes more.
13. Are you a fast, slow, or medium typer?
Fast typer, slow thinker. Trololo~.
14. What is the most annoying thing people ask you?
I dunno, man. I don't really get annoyed all that easily. I suppose it's a bit irritating when people ask me if my commissions are open, when I've got my closed sign up on the front of my gallery, but it's not gonna make me smoke from the ears or anything.
15. What is the most annoying/offending comment you've received?
Huh. You know, I don't really know. Maybe, way back when I uploaded my first piece to dA, as a wee thing, the first comment I got was someone being a bit unnecessarily sassy about the watermark I'd used. That was sort of uncalled for, and poorly timed. But other than that.
16. What/who inspires you?
Dude, you wanna go through this again, with me? EVERYBODY AND ALL THE THINGS. IF I WATCH YOU, YOU INSPIRE ME. IF I KNOW YOU, YOU INSPIRE ME. YOU PROBABLY INSPIRE ME IF I DON'T KNOW YOU, TOO. The quality of light on a given day inspires me. Sound and vibration and dust.
17. Everyone has considered leaving FA once or twice. Have you? Why?
Actually, I really haven't. Dunno why.

Commissions: F.A.Q.
Posted 12 years agoCross posted from my dA gallery.
Under construction. Please feel free to submit questions via note or comments.
What can you draw?
There's very little I'm not willing to try my hand at. Give me a design, and I'll do my best to do it justice.
Thus far, I've had experience drawing humanoid characters, anthros, monstrous characters, et cetera. I am less experienced with ferals, but will gladly take them on.
What are you absolutely opposed to drawing?
Not much, really. I do prefer to keep my work tasteful, but I will tackle violence, horror, adult or erotic themes, nudity and so on.
That said, I do reserve the right to refuse to do something, if it somehow manages to trip my hard boundaries (or if I just don't think I can do it justice--in which case I'll generally try to refer you to someone I think would do a better job). When in doubt, just ask.
What are your policies on unruly customers?
That depends on what you mean by unruly. I cover this, for the most part, in my ToS, I believe.
In essence, be professional and courteous; remember that you're hiring me for a service. I do reserve the right to refuse working with someone as a result of untoward rudeness, et cetera.
Why are your remapping ports more expensive than your non-remapping ports?
Because I don't really enjoy doing remapping portraits, and they tend to take me longer.
What's the difference between a speed port and a normal port?
The process is different, for one. I do speed ports in one sitting, sans preliminary sketches and the like. In essence, you get what you get. Furthermore, the backgrounds and compositions tend to be simpler, and the use of colour less complex.
Why aren't your commissions open more often?
I'm a full-time grad student and a staff member at TGT, during my sparse free time.
I do what I can, when I can.
I don't like your prices. Will you lower them for me?
No. Compared to the industry standard for illustrators, I undercharge by a lot. Usually, I don't even make minimum wage per hour on my commissions.
Do you take payment by post?
No.
