Link to my DA journal because I'm lazy.
I'm unlikely to take mature-themed commissions though, largely because it's so far outside of what I normally draw.
I'mma have a hard enough time convincing myself to send off the original art for these things anyway.
Ohwell.
We'll have to wait and see, I suppose.
( If at all possible, please post feedback on my DA journal rather than this one. )

Otakon 2012
Posted 13 years agoI came back last night at approximately 12:32 AM, and man did I have an amazing time out in Baltimore.
I posted the photos I took over in my DA gallery, but there's a handful I took of fursuiters that I'mma share on here~
I made it a bit of a mission to hug all of the fursuiters, hahaha. x3

sorry about the long silence // Otakon
Posted 13 years agoI feel like I've neglected my gallery on here a lot.
Originally, the plan was for me to have a place to dump things I couldn't post over on DA.
It kind of evolved to include anything I drew that fit in with the general content of the site, such as my dog portrait series and the derpy Pokémon.
But then college got in the way of me drawing and scanning things, and if you look at what I've managed to post over on DA you'll notice that all I've been able to really share over the past few months has been photos of the various things I've adventured to.
Scrolling backwards through that gallery, I've only uploaded two stream batches of shenanigans since the derpy Pokémon sitting over here.
Between then and now I've shared photos from a cosplay picnic, three conventions, along with four WIP logs of costumes for those events.
I have actually managed to get some artwork done in that time - the two stream dumps that were last posted on DA were at the beginning of my sketchbook, and I'm currently running out of room in it.
Since I've been on summer break for a month now, I'll see what I can do about scanning things in.
But this kind of has to be done around the next thing I wanted to talk about.
Otakon.
Approximately one month from now my sister and I will be down in Baltimore for a weekend of shenanigans with a few friends.
It feels a little out of place to talk about it on here, but I might as well mention it.
The plan is to post photos of our cosplays over on DA before we leave, so that people who want to say hi to us have something to look for.
I'm not really gonna talk or post much about it over here, so if you want to get updates and see my photos I recommend +watching my DA page, which is also under insanefastone.
Again, sorry about that eight or so months of nothing.
I'm still alive, I swear.

stream MAY be canceled
Posted 14 years agoFeel kind of bad having to do this two weeks in a row, but classes do have to come first. Especially final projects.
I've got a pair of them that will be taking up a rather large portion of my time over the next week.
( They're both due on Sunday. )
One is an animation for my 2D class, the other is an online portfolio (remade from our midterm project) - the former will take a lot of drawing time, and the latter will take a lot of typing and debugging time.
Now, if I were doing the 2D project in Photoshop I could try to stream it, but since I'm doing it in Flash (which is a lot more resource intensive, I've found) I don't think that is a possibility.
If I were to stream it, the quality of the feed would likely suffer and I probably won't have screen space to put the chat window.
Anyway.
I can't really say anything definite on this right now, since whether or not I stream on Wednesday depends on how much work I get done after my classes on Tuesday (which will also be when I can more accurately asses how much work still needs to be done).
In all likelihood my workload shouldn't be an issue, but I'm throwing this out there now in case I get into project mode and fail to tell anyone what's going on until after the fact.
So, if I don't post about streaming on Wednesday, this will be why.

SCHEDULE CHANGE (about streams)
Posted 14 years agoJust a heads-up : My schedule is changing (approximately) on the 18th (about two weeks from now).
I will be home for a week (on the academic calendar, it's November 20-27), and then back off to class with a new set of courses to deal with (first day of class next quarter is the 28th).
With the way my schedule is currently, streams will still be on Wednesdays at around the same time (last class that day ends at 1), but they can now go basically as late as I want them to (since the earliest class in my schedule starts at 10am).
This will probably still be limited to about five hours maximum, as I can only handle Sharpies for oh so long (not to mention that I would still like to have some time to myself for things like a social life).
I might (emphasis on MIGHT) do short evening sessions on Fridays - I've got a window of about three hours between my last class and a weekly group.
( While I'm talking of this group, it might invade the rest of my schedule with practices or other related things, but that probably won't happen for a while yet. )
And, just to make sure that you are aware (given that you've read all of this), this is only a POTENTIAL time.
I'm not totally sure if meeting times will be the same next quarter as they are this quarter, and that will have an effect on my stream schedule.
As a side note, I will also be home between December 18th and January 8th (holiday break), and winter-spring break starts March 4th (when the schedule will change again).
More info on that when it's a little closer, but I figured I'd mention it now because I had the calendar open.

no stream this week
Posted 14 years agoGot a paper to write instead.
no stream today
Posted 14 years agoToo busy. :C
moving that long journal off my page
Posted 14 years agoNothing important here, hahaha.
I mean, journals on here just kind of... sit.
At least on DA they get bumped around because I post about livestreaming every week.

STREAM IMPORTANTS [as of 9/12/11]
Posted 14 years agoWEDNESDAY
2PM through 5PM
( Start time may vary slightly. )
CHANNELS:
http://justin.tv/insanefastone - traditional (primarily what I'll do)
http://livestream.com/insanefastone - digital (or if j.tv is misbehaving)
( The channel I am using specifically will be linked to at the time of the stream. )
UNTIL I CAN SCAN THEM, STREAM PICTURES WILL GO TO MY TUMBLR:
http://insanefastone.tumblr.com
( I will take photos of them with my phone for tumblr, and then post them on DA/FA once I get nice scans. )
RULES, GUIDELINES, AND STUFF TO EXPECT:
- > IF YOU DO NOT HAVE AUDIO, PLEASE LET ME KNOW. It's hard to draw and type at the same time, so I prefer to read the chat and then verbally reply to you. I also have music playing most of the time, and it's nice to listen to. ( The only time I really won't be playing music is when there's already something outside - you might not be able to hear it, but I can. and too many different music sources playing at once bothers me to no end. )
- > THERE IS A ~10 SECOND DELAY ON THE STREAM'S FEED. There's not a lot I can do about it aside from decreasing the stream quality (which I cannot do live), but I'd like to avoid forcing people to look at pixels. This also means that when I see your comments in the chat, it's for stuff I did 10 seconds ago. It's annoying and creates awkward pauses when I ask something and then wait for a reply, but it's what we're stuck with (for the most part, anyway). However, it seems that when I type into the chat it goes through to everyone at the same time (regardless of the feed), so if I have something important to say I will do that.
- > Because of the chat issues, I like to put friends of mine on Skype so I can talk with them easier. Don't take it personally if I don't want to add you - if you frequent my streams, I'll be more comfortable with it. I also have a handful of friends who go to the same college as I do, so I might have them in my room as well. People on Skype have to deal with the same video feed lag (but not audio, since Skype is a lot faster), but it makes for a much livelier conversation.
- > IF I SKYPE YOU DURING THE STREAM, PLEASE USE HEADPHONES AND MOVE AWAY FROM BACKGROUND NOISE. This cuts down on feedback and overhearing awkward things (like family drama). You will get some feedback from my end (since if I use headphones people in the chat can't hear you), but we don't want some sort of crazy feedback loop that cycles on forever into white noise. If I get too much background noise from someone I will ask that you go on hold until the situation is resolved. Also, using a headset-type mic works pretty well, since it doesn't pick up as much sound as a built-in or desktop mic (if you do this, please don't play with it - that broadcasts a lot of static to the rest of us).
- > BE AWARE THAT THERE WILL POTENTIALLY BE UNSAVORY LANGUAGE AS I STREAM. Usually from myself, but I try to keep it to a minimum and at PG-13 strength. I know that the j.tv chat has a censor (which I can't do anything about, so don't bother), but people I Skype in should remember that not everyone in the chat is college-age or older.
- > Keeping that in mind, I WILL NOT STREAM ANY MATURE ARTWORK. NONE. DO NOT ASK. Aside from possible bannings, I would prefer not to put up anything of the sort so I can avoid any awkwardness associated with preference, persuasion, or age. I would also prefer that discussion of anything related be kept to a minimum. Please don't make me have to remove you from the stream.
REQUESTS MADE OF ME DURING THE STREAM:
- > I ASK YOU, NOT THE OTHER WAY AROUND. Feel free to privately message me (either on DA or FA) about it, but keep in mind that my art time outside of streaming is pretty limited. This mostly means that if (by my maturity rules) I will not stream it, it is unlikely to happen. Likewise, I only have oh so much time to stream, and I would rather fill that time with stuff I genuinely want to draw instead of trying to doodle for anyone who wants it. Don't get butthurt if I ask for an idea and take someone else's over yours - it ruins your chances of me picking you next time I ask for inspiration.
- > Previously covered maturity rules apply, including anything you message me privately about. Sorry, but most things in that category are beyond what I would/could draw anyway.
- > If you come into the stream asking about free arts, I will ignore you. If you persist and/or begin to act butthurt after I say no, I will kick you from the stream. It's annoying, and makes me feel like my time isn't worth anything. So please don't.
- > Unless stated otherwise, you are allowed to repost the scanned image so long as there is a link attached to it leading back to my page. As in, once I get the scan posted you can do with it what you will so long as people know where you got it. Note that I am specifically saying the scanned version - the not-scan I post to tumblr is a stand-in for when I do get the chance to scan things (that, and it's easier to get in touch with me via DA/FA than tumblr).
THAT IS ALL HAVE A NICE DAY.

photodump over on DA [links]
Posted 14 years agoFinally photodumped to DA like I said I would a while ago.
My DA page : http://insanefastone.deviantart.com
AniBash 2011 photos : http://insanefastone.deviantart.com.....llery/25720128
( the rest of that folder is old events )
WIP costume stuff : http://insanefastone.deviantart.com.....llery/32211872
( first are the Homestuck troll horns, then a pic of my Beeleznef puppet, then the KOS-MOS armor I'm working on for a friend )
Related journal entry : http://insanefastone.deviantart.com.....rnal/43586857/
The folders are arranged so that more recent groups are at the front, and the pictures inside them are in reverse posting order (so, first to last) for optimal page-by-page browsing.
I'm aware that there's a few photo groups (if you page through the Photos folder) that are in last-to-first order, but I really can't be bothered to rearrange them right now.

wisdom teeth
Posted 14 years agoI'm doing pretty well.
Procedure was easier than the surgeon expected, and there's no complications.
All I gotta do is take my meds and I'll be fine~

streams - taking a break & time changes [INFO]
Posted 14 years ago[no streams]
As a few people have noticed, I streamed tonight (while it is past midnight on the East Coast, I still consider it to be Sunday - THE DAY SHALL NOT END UNTIL I SLEEP, I SAY).
I WILL NOT be streaming tomorrow (Monday) or Wednesday, and it's unlikely that I shall be streaming during the following two weeks.
This was a last-minute change on my part (hence, no previous journal pointing this out), but I have a pair of good reasons for it.
a) I'm moving back out to college on September first, and I really need to get my things packed (and go on a supply run or two). Given how long it took me previously to pack, I feel like this is the sort of timeframe I need.
b) I am getting my wisdom teeth removed on Thursday (August 18th). My appointment is for 7:30am, which is a full four and a half hours before I'm normally awake. I don't see myself doing anything except sleeping and drooling (except maybe eating pudding or something) for the rest of the day, and I quite honestly won't have the brainpower to do anything else anyway. For several days following that, I'll be taking strong painkillers in addition to following whatever other instructions I am given by the oral surgeon.
So.
If I can't get my things travel-ready before Thursday (barring any shopping trips), I'll have to take care of it the following week (given that I'm not feeling too terrible). This means that in addition to however I'm feeling from medications, I'll also be physically tired from moving things around (as travel-ready means by the door for easy loading into our van).
Now, streaming in the few days following my appointment would be very entertaining, but I don't think I should push myself into doing such things (besides, I already have a thing or two planned). However, if I'm not feeling terrible (and have gotten my things together) I will consider streaming.
[date/time changes]
Once I do get back on out to RIT, I need to rearrange when I do streams - the way my new schedule is, the new potential times are:
Mondays after 10pm (with an 8am class the following morning)
Tuesdays after 6pm
Wednesdays after 10pm (with an 8am class the following morning)
Thursdays after 3:30pm
Fridays at any time
Saturdays at any time except for 6pm through 9pm (flexible)
Sundays at any time and ending before 7pm (not flexible)
( my weekends are Friday through Sunday )
As of right now, my new time will be Thursdays at about 4pm.
The first stream under this time will be on September 8th.
Some important things to note:
- My schedule can and WILL change. - While I can change my classes around during the first week, it is highly unlikely I will. However, I will have to adjust for any new things that come up - mainly, weekly meetings that I can't account for because of not knowing their times. I will update accordingly once I figure them out, but they shouldn't conflict with my current choice (they may, however, limit how long I can stream to four hours or less).
- This new schedule will ONLY be in effect during fall quarter. - For me, this means September 5th through November 19th (my college uses a quarter-based academic schedule). Midterms don't have official dates, but final exams are November 14th through 19th and it is supposed to be quiet in the dorms. Because of this, it's unlikely that I will stream that week (not to mention that we are allowed to leave for break once we are done with our exams). Stream times during my fall/winter break will be decided once I'm back home.
- Because of my three-day weekends, I might go home Thursday after my classes. - If this happens, I will make a journal about it ahead of time and bring my camera home with me so I can stream on Friday instead. I will aim for this replacement stream to start at 8pm (so I'm not interrupted for dinner). If this conflicts with the reason I came home, then it will be canceled for the week (sorry, but I just don't wanna stream on Saturdays/Sundays if I can avoid it).
- I plan on getting a job on campus, and it might not have a stable schedule. - This is the major thing I have in mind when saying that my schedule will change. I only have so much control over when I can work, and scheduling for it can only really be bent around by my academic schedule. While this means that I'll finally have a source of income (and can, therefore, get supplies more often), it might come at the cost of not having weekly streams (at least, at a consistent time). I'll keep you posted.
If Thursday isn't convenient for you, please keep in mind that aside from the previously noted commitments and any pending changes, my weekends are open.
I did say that I'd rather not stream on weekends, which is still true, but depending on schedule commitments (and general level of boredom versus interest in schoolwork) I might do occasional weekend streams. They wouldn't be consistent, but logging in to see that an artist you like to watch work is suddenly streaming is a nice surprise, right? I also feel bad for the folks that've been in the chat before but can't set aside time during the week because of scheduling conflicts.
It's also possible that I might stream while I work on school things (outside of Thursday's stream, of course). This quarter I'm in an animation class and a web development class (these are the classes that run so late on Mondays and Wednesdays, respectively), and streaming while I work on those could be interesting. There's also a couple of projects I've kind of been working on over the summer (and one that I know I will have to do during the year for something else, but it probably won't start until winter quarter) that I really should finish. Or working on chainmaille, as my Saturday commitment is the club that got me started with this as a hobby (the meetings are more like an excuse for us to sit around for three hours and partake in shenanigans, but it's good fun).
Anyway, thank you for reading.
tl; dr
Fall quarter streams will be Thursdays at about 4pm, and will start on September 8th.
Until then, I most likely will not do any streams because I have to pack and will be getting my wisdom teeth removed.
As a few people have noticed, I streamed tonight (while it is past midnight on the East Coast, I still consider it to be Sunday - THE DAY SHALL NOT END UNTIL I SLEEP, I SAY).
I WILL NOT be streaming tomorrow (Monday) or Wednesday, and it's unlikely that I shall be streaming during the following two weeks.

a) I'm moving back out to college on September first, and I really need to get my things packed (and go on a supply run or two). Given how long it took me previously to pack, I feel like this is the sort of timeframe I need.
b) I am getting my wisdom teeth removed on Thursday (August 18th). My appointment is for 7:30am, which is a full four and a half hours before I'm normally awake. I don't see myself doing anything except sleeping and drooling (except maybe eating pudding or something) for the rest of the day, and I quite honestly won't have the brainpower to do anything else anyway. For several days following that, I'll be taking strong painkillers in addition to following whatever other instructions I am given by the oral surgeon.
So.
If I can't get my things travel-ready before Thursday (barring any shopping trips), I'll have to take care of it the following week (given that I'm not feeling too terrible). This means that in addition to however I'm feeling from medications, I'll also be physically tired from moving things around (as travel-ready means by the door for easy loading into our van).
Now, streaming in the few days following my appointment would be very entertaining, but I don't think I should push myself into doing such things (besides, I already have a thing or two planned). However, if I'm not feeling terrible (and have gotten my things together) I will consider streaming.
[date/time changes]
Once I do get back on out to RIT, I need to rearrange when I do streams - the way my new schedule is, the new potential times are:
Mondays after 10pm (with an 8am class the following morning)
Tuesdays after 6pm
Wednesdays after 10pm (with an 8am class the following morning)
Thursdays after 3:30pm
Fridays at any time
Saturdays at any time except for 6pm through 9pm (flexible)
Sundays at any time and ending before 7pm (not flexible)
( my weekends are Friday through Sunday )
As of right now, my new time will be Thursdays at about 4pm.
The first stream under this time will be on September 8th.
Some important things to note:
- My schedule can and WILL change. - While I can change my classes around during the first week, it is highly unlikely I will. However, I will have to adjust for any new things that come up - mainly, weekly meetings that I can't account for because of not knowing their times. I will update accordingly once I figure them out, but they shouldn't conflict with my current choice (they may, however, limit how long I can stream to four hours or less).
- This new schedule will ONLY be in effect during fall quarter. - For me, this means September 5th through November 19th (my college uses a quarter-based academic schedule). Midterms don't have official dates, but final exams are November 14th through 19th and it is supposed to be quiet in the dorms. Because of this, it's unlikely that I will stream that week (not to mention that we are allowed to leave for break once we are done with our exams). Stream times during my fall/winter break will be decided once I'm back home.
- Because of my three-day weekends, I might go home Thursday after my classes. - If this happens, I will make a journal about it ahead of time and bring my camera home with me so I can stream on Friday instead. I will aim for this replacement stream to start at 8pm (so I'm not interrupted for dinner). If this conflicts with the reason I came home, then it will be canceled for the week (sorry, but I just don't wanna stream on Saturdays/Sundays if I can avoid it).
- I plan on getting a job on campus, and it might not have a stable schedule. - This is the major thing I have in mind when saying that my schedule will change. I only have so much control over when I can work, and scheduling for it can only really be bent around by my academic schedule. While this means that I'll finally have a source of income (and can, therefore, get supplies more often), it might come at the cost of not having weekly streams (at least, at a consistent time). I'll keep you posted.
If Thursday isn't convenient for you, please keep in mind that aside from the previously noted commitments and any pending changes, my weekends are open.
I did say that I'd rather not stream on weekends, which is still true, but depending on schedule commitments (and general level of boredom versus interest in schoolwork) I might do occasional weekend streams. They wouldn't be consistent, but logging in to see that an artist you like to watch work is suddenly streaming is a nice surprise, right? I also feel bad for the folks that've been in the chat before but can't set aside time during the week because of scheduling conflicts.
It's also possible that I might stream while I work on school things (outside of Thursday's stream, of course). This quarter I'm in an animation class and a web development class (these are the classes that run so late on Mondays and Wednesdays, respectively), and streaming while I work on those could be interesting. There's also a couple of projects I've kind of been working on over the summer (and one that I know I will have to do during the year for something else, but it probably won't start until winter quarter) that I really should finish. Or working on chainmaille, as my Saturday commitment is the club that got me started with this as a hobby (the meetings are more like an excuse for us to sit around for three hours and partake in shenanigans, but it's good fun).
Anyway, thank you for reading.
tl; dr
Fall quarter streams will be Thursdays at about 4pm, and will start on September 8th.
Until then, I most likely will not do any streams because I have to pack and will be getting my wisdom teeth removed.
next stream: WEDNESDAY @ 8pm

Gonna be screen-streaming this time, because I want to test out justin.tv's abilities and play with a sketchbook app that's designed to turn your tablet into Copic markers.
Funfunfun~
No idea what I'mma actually draw, tho.
If that fails (or I just get bored of it), I'mma go back to drawing Derpymon on notecards.

I'm kind of tired from my weekend adventures, so it'll be a rather derpy stream, but it'll be fun! RIGHT? RIIIGHT.
Tomorrow I'm photodumping stuff from the weekend to DA, and I'll make a journal here about it rather than flooding inboxes with loads of unrelated pics.
SEE YOU THEN, PRETTIES.

Posted 14 years agoProbably not gonna have a stream on Wednesday, sorry guys.
I've got to finish cosplay armor by Friday, and so I'm in a bit of a crunch.
I don't think I'll have Wednesday to work on it either (and, by extension, stream), so I really only have two more days to get it all finished up.
Anyway, pictures of that (and the event it's for, which is on Sunday) will be photodumped (just on DA, since it has no place over here) once I get home and transfer them to my laptop.
Also, since I've got nonstop plans across Saturday and Sunday (as in, I'm going somewhere Saturday morning, then overnighting and heading to more shenanigans on Sunday), I don't expect to be able to stream on Monday.
I suppose you can look forward to pics instead, eh?
So... yeah.
I'll upload last night's pictures then as well (along with the ones I never uploaded here - I noticed this the other day).
UNTIL THEN.

Posted 14 years agoI have plans on Wednesday, so no stream then.
I'd do one on Thursday or Friday, but I've got a project that needs to be kicked into high gear.
Then this weekend's probably gonna be more of the same.
So... yeah. I'll see you guys on Monday. :3

STREAM @8pm Eastern (note!)
Posted 14 years agoHEADS-UP NOTICE!
I will be on justin.tv this time!
The channel will be here: http://www.justin.tv/insanefastone
I highly suggest making an account there - depending on how it goes tonight, I might PERMANENTLY SWITCH over to justin.tv.
It just works better than livestream, and doesn't derp as much.

Posted 14 years agoNOTE: I will be switching to justin.TV on Monday!
If you wish to take part in the chat, I recommend you create an account there.
Expect to see scans from this week's double-stream madness later today.
As in, once I sleep and it ceases being dark outside.
PREVIOUSLY:
Two more dog pictures!
Sharpie doodles!
Crayon shenanigans!
UP NEXT:
Further dog pictures! (I've got two sketches left)
The last five pages in my sketchbook, OH NO!

This timeslot works out wonderfully, I think.
It's after my family eats dinner, and that lets me have all the time I want to draw and color.
And about all I can handle is five hours, maximum.
SO YEAH.
Twice a week for these streams sound fun?
I think so.
I have no idea how this'll work out at college, though, since I won't be taking the camera with me again.
I don't wanna have to use a webcam, but a decent camcorder is not a cheap thing.
So we'll see.
UNTIL THEN, WE SHALL ALL ENJOY THE SUMMERTIME STREAMS.
Mmyes.

Well that was fun.
Posted 14 years agoNote to self: Do not color with Sharpies for more than two hours.
Especially not more than four.
You will get silly, and then have a worse-than-normal headache the following day.
IN OTHER NEWS.
Successful stream was successful.
I got too silly (and tired) in the end to do any requests, but eh.
We'll see about next time.

How about a stream on Wednesday?
Posted 14 years agoLate afternoon/evening, methinks.
I HAVE A QUEST FOR YOU GUYS!
More like a question.
But quest is in question, so.
Yeah.
THE QUEST:
Name for me....
At least one breed of dog (the less common, the better!).
AND.
At least one job/profession (preferably with recognizable attire/uniform).
I AWAIT.

You know what I forgot about? WEEKLY STREAMS. (info)
Posted 14 years ago Those should be making a comeback.
I'm also gonna be sharing these with DA people, but that won't be a change for the stuff I actually wind up drawing.
I'll put a note in the description every time I post the stream link so people are aware.
And put a comment in the chat box.
Basically, it means for people to watch what they say in the chat.
Shouldn't be that big of a deal, right?
In other news, Minecraft.
It has EATEN MY TIME AND MY BRAIN.
I take tons of screenshots, too.
Would you guys mind if I posted about them here?
Not adding them to my gallery, since they have NOTHING to do with it, but posting a journal linking to the ones I add to my DA gallery.
Like I said over there in my journal, I have nearly 300 on my Facebook but I'm only gonna post a select few to the gallery.
So... that's all for now.
Look out tomorrow for an update about what day/time I'll be streaming.
I wanna go back to Monday evenings, but that won't happen this week.
It's also possible that I could stream multiple times per week, but I won't talk much about that until tomorrow's journal.
