First off, I'm currently open for commissions. thanks to those who came through with the emergency ones <3 You've helped me again Thank You.
I'm doing more adult themed MLP art over at  storm-blaze with the Stupid Sexy Commissions, please do get some and the price sheet is due for a change too.

I am opening for ConFuzzled CONBADGES ONLY. I don't think I have the time for art packs this year. I've got 4 originals to do for the auction too. The badges will be £15 each and i'll put up the examples soon, but they're pretty much the same as the CFz 2012 ones just Alice themed. I'm only doing room signs for myself and Reverb.

Ah yeah, dunno if anyone noticed the new bit on my profile. =3  macenziewolf and I are officially a couple now (well since start of Feb) ^_^ so there's that =p

One more thing for today. I will soon start streaming again and properly with the digital stuff. I got a new PC! Just waiting on a new monitor then I'll get to play with new things =D eee can't wait to see you lot again. Unsure if I'll be returning to Tigerdile yet, but I can tell you now that it'll be a mix of Furry and MLP streaming, going with the title "Stormy Sundays" as well as sharing the title with the upcoming UKofEquestria podcasts I'll be doing =D so keep an eye out!

Just thought you'd like to know, its my Birthday tomorrow :3

So I'm always telling myself. Now i have less work hours, I can get on with this art mess Ive gotten into again.

I now have a place you lot can check for the amount of work and stuff I owe and status' etc

Click that link, Its also staying put in the journal footer!

I should be asleep but i must rant and rage about something.

I really really REALLY HATE YCH Auctions with a fucking autobuy option! I cannot stress this enough. I really want to commission some nice art and most artists I want are closed, so I've been looking around at YCH auctions for something nice, mostly of Stormy. I've already started bids on at least 5 auctions just today and 3 of them have gone straight into autobuy. I cannot afford the full price that someone is charging for the autobuy, so I do my best at bidding. You have no idea how disappointed and angry being told someones autobought the damn thing. I am willing to wait the auction out to get a piece but no, just some more well off furfags and bronies come in and swipe that oppurtunity away from me and the other bidders. Its really selfish on the buyer and the artists themselves. I just don't find it fair at all =( Ive already had a very disappointing day and its just made worse by this.

Please please if you do YCH auctions, dont put an autobuy option on it =(

So I've offered to do up a new Group pic for the  kangaroomob for 2015. There are 20 places up for grabs with nearly half gone already.

Each slot is £20 and I will send you your part when its done as well as the final piece.

It'll be generic like the original one I did http://www.furaffinity.net/view/8847351/


Payment isnt for a little while, I want to get some numbers in before that, so please just sign up for now.
SIGN UP HERE http://www.furaffinity.net/view/15560480/

Please dont PM me, Im not taking trades as payment, keep an eye out for dates for this. I aim to spend the month or 2 months after payments working on it.


Also ConFuzzled commissions will be open really soon (I know I keep saying it, but one more piece before I can show you guys)

I dont know if anyones noticed the change on my profile.... but im going to be a little inactive for a while. Im gonna try and see some friends and just calm down some.

I will offer one ref slot for next month work. Hopefully ill be able to get this backlog gone soon, i may be cutting hours at work for a month so there will be some time to art. Weekends will be pretty social for me too.

Dont worry about me, I'll be ok. Just go support Tiercel hes the one who needs some more friends v.v

Maybe in the next few days I will be able to give you this big big updates I've been planning.

Sorry for the lack of activity. Been busy enjoying an art free holiday, seeing friends and just chilling out with Tier being home. I've also been juggling pony and furry art.

Saving the big update but I will be opening to ConFuzzled Art Packs VERY VERY SOON now that Im confirmed for Dealers Den!!! (at last). I just need to laminate everything and finish the door sign example. I'm taking pre order names down so that you get to be on the list, but dont have to pay until I get the examples on here.

See you lot in the New Year.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Once the remaining normal commissions are done after these, I WILL be starting to open for ConFuzzled artwork, so Conbadges, Door Signs and I will be bringing the art packs back. Keep an eye out! I will also be working on some CFz exclusive art that will be done as prints for the Con.

I thiiiink I'm going to be able to slowly get back into furry art. Been having a huge break, first BUCK came along, then I got a new full time job and I've been seeing "my boys" at the weekends. So I've not actually had anytime to draw properly. Just done a few doodles here and there.

So bare with me as I ease back into my artlife. I think I'll get some work done in the evenings and free weekends.
I'll be open for commissions soon enough.

Many apologies for the insane delay on work and the replies to messages.

Sorry guys, still taking a break from things. Ive not really found a settled way to get back into drawing yet.
Ive not drawn anything since BUCK, which was 2 weeks ago now v.v

I got back from BUCK, but I got some serious con crud on monday. Still kinda recovering from it now. Thats nearly a week of con crud WTF.
Tiers just gone to London to start uni too....so Im going to be moping about for a while from that. In a week or so I will also be starting a new job. a normal one at that, a nice 9-5 weekday one with bank holidays off. Which also means Im gonna cut back on commission loads.

Let me settle down and finish the remaining commissions before I take on anymore.


One little thing more to my friends, Hotel Snep is going to be on open invite, just let me know if you wanna come over just to check im not elsewhere. Im going to be very lonely without Tier being here =(

Thought there was more of a gap between my holiday and BUCK. turns out there really isnt.
Ive been checking in every now and then but thats it. BUCK is taking over for now. Dont even know when Ill get back into the furryness.
Eveyrthings on hold

Just thinking, I'd like some marker doodles to do. Would anyone like cheap art? I just wanna do a few today and have something to do at the Lakes. (I dont have any 3g or internets up there, but i'll make a list)
Please keep it SFW.

£10 for full body (no background)
£5 headshot or conbadge

paypal only please

Im off on holiday (woo) annual Lakes trip starts this weekend and I'll be off for a week or so.
All commissions are lined and ready for colouring when I get back, which means I will have commission slots open between finishing them and BUCK time. So I hope you guys will come get something =3

See ya in a week.

Just wanna say I will be closing general Furry commissions for a month of so. BUCK is comming and I wanna focus on that.

MY LITTLE PONY COMMISSIONS WILL STAY OPEN!!!
please go to  storm-blaze if you want one.

I may open for quick emergency commissions, but for now PONIES PONIES PONIES!!!


GO HERE:

Wooo no work til Tuesday! Because Im off to Thorpe Park with my Brony friends ^_^ seriously been needing this, my social levels felt so low these last few weeks. I'll be heading off tomorrow, so no more commission work til I get home. Ive never been to Thorpe Park before, just Alton Towers and Drayton Manor (Disneyland if you count outside the country). I will be taking my camera, but im really bad at usuing it.

And before some of you moan at me about money for it, a friend of mine very kindly offered to pay for my ticket <3

Random question for today.

What kind of art styles to you like most?
For me its got to be anything sketchy. I LOVE imperfections in artwork. Or a rough comic or manga style drawing (im talking more about the inkwork than the character style). I'm not really a fan of totally smoooooth styled things really. Bubbly art isnt my thing. I love rough crudely almost unfinished stuff =3 Street art style is also a fave of mine.

Best example atm I can think of in the non furry world is Attack on Titan. You have no idea how much I love the art style on it. Those thick outerlines, the hatches shading, usuing a lot of ink, thats my kinda thing.

So how about you guys, what do you like?

Is it me or has it become really difficult to rope any commissions recently?
just me? ok...
what have I done wrong? =( I feel as though I've been abandoned.

Enjoying my sort of holiday week.
see you after  southfurcampuk
