This isn't what the furry community is about!
Posted 10 years agoThis rant may piss some people off.
Yes the furry community is primarily about acceptance, and deviation from the norm, and thinking outside normal cultural taboos. However, this particular thing is one of the things that I feel doesn't belong anywhere in the community.
What I speak of is Furriers.
Any of those people who like to hunt animals, skin them, and then turn their skins into clothing as a fashion, and then call yourself a part of this community I think personally is wrong. I am not going to name names, but personally I feel if you do that kind of thing you need to leave this site, and any other site related to this community. Disable your account, and leave! This will sound harsh but I don't want you here! take your animal murder elsewhere. It isn't pretty, it isn't cultural, and most importantly, it isn't art. it's backwards, and it's disgusting, there is absolutely no reason for it in this modern age. and the only reason there was need for it in the past is because when we were banging stones together to make crude cutting tools in our caves that's all we had to provide warmth.

My friend is opening commissions
Posted 10 years agoless than 2 hours
Posted 10 years agoCommission model updated
Posted 10 years agoChanging commission model soon
Posted 10 years agoI find my art doesn't have the quality for what I charge. basically I have realized some pieces of my art take longer to draw than others.
And the prices just don't fit the amount of work I put into each piece I make. So I have decided that staring probably in July, after I have done a little more research into just how long it takes me for certain things, I will be re-configuring my commissions to better suit what you get for what you pay for. there will be no solid types of pieces anymore but instead I will be doing prices based on what is in the picture.
I will not be charging more than what I do. I just feel some pieces take longer than others, and some pieces don't take as long. This way you will get my best every time and I prefer it that way. and for those who become my customer, they will too.
More to follow soon.
