Soo, I should probably put more art here again. It seems every other site turns to crap, but FA always stays the same, which is nice :)

Also, if you like cute cartoon animals (I know you do) check out my partner's pin campaign! https://www.backerkit.com/c/project.....set?ref=FApost
So many great animals there, it ends really soon!

Also, if you haven't already backed up your old livejournal, now is a good time, since apparently non-russians will lose access soon.

Haven't been too active here in a while. Since it turns out social media run by billionaires was a bad idea, I'm mostly posting on mastodon and my Telegram channel. But I'll also try to post here again!

My Telegram channel is: https://t.me/KarpourArt
I usually post commission openings, WIPs and doodles there!

My masto is: https://mstdn.social/@karpour
If you also use Mastodon, let's keep in touch there!

As for personal things, I moved back to Vienna last year after living in Amsterdam for 4 years, I worked full-time as a web developer, which paid the bills but left me little time for drawing. These days I'm drawing more again, and also getting back to building fursuits! :)

Hope everyone else is doing fine!

Finally, after all this (ongoing) Covid nightmare, Henrieke and I will be at FC again! Looking forward to endless art jams, hanging out with friends, suiting and of course Croc's dance! :)

Who else will be there?

Sooo, maybe every once in a few years I should update my journal!
I'll be at FC in January, looking forward to suiting and having lots of artjams there! I'll also likely be open for badges for FC

!! Also, I made a Telegram broadcast group for both artwork, commission openings and stream announcements! If you're interested, feel free to peek in here:

Will post a report later, but for now thanks to everyone I got to hang out with for making this con pretty amazing! :D
Finally got to hang out with many people I previously only briefly met and also made quite some new friends! :)

Soo, just a few days and  Henrieke and me will be sitting in a plane towards Atlanta!

I hope to meet all of you guys there and I'm looking forward to lots of Sketchbook trades!
We will have a few patches with us for sale, also I'll bring the Polaroid badge commissions I've done so far to the cons!

If you still want a Polaroid badge, there is one (or 2, depending on another person) slot open, but if you want one, please be quick as there's not much time left before the cons! See examples here: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/12941022/

Suits: We'll be bringing Baseball and Dog along, both are very excited, especially Dog, who has never been to the States. He was supposed to come to FWA in 2011, but thanks to my stupid foot injury he had to stay home sadly. Well, not this time! :)

I'll take some icon commissions in the style of my last view submissions!
Icons are 15€, please send me a note with ref and (if you like to choose a background color, a color)!

I'll stream when I draw them too!

There is a DDR X cab in the Arcade of the con hotel, who's up for some DDR action? :D

What a great site! https://www.weasyl.com/~karpour
Will do a bigger announcement when I finished my profile and banner and stuff! :)

Also, if you live in Atlanta, Reno or the SFBay area, Henrieke and me will be at all of those places in March :)

Henrieke and me have been to Estrel, location of next Eurofurence! If you're interested, you can read about it here:

http://www.ohnitsch.net/2013/12/07/the-estrel/

Here are EF19 photos: https://picasaweb.google.com/100101...../Eurofurence19
And Polaroids: https://picasaweb.google.com/100101.....nce19Polaroids

Living in Europe has the bad side-effect of zero availability of good keyboard phones. ALL good phones now are US-only, most of them CDMA so the only possible option at all would be getting an unlocked Droid 4, which never got released here.

It didn't help that my american G2 which I gave to Henrieke and which still had pretty good performance got stolen at EF :/

Soo, I wondered whether anyone has a Droid 4 they'd like to get rid of or could get me one from craigslist!

Head over to  atkelars page for some great shots from yesterdays outing :)

Since I hardly post any journals, I thought I'd just say thanks!

Thanks for all the nice and supportive comments
Thanks for commissioning me and enabling me to continue drawing
Thanks for increasing the little number on my profile page ;)

I'm happy you like my stuff, and I'll continue providing happy art for everyone for as long as I have arms.

Hey guys, my friend Rumbrave is in a bad situation right now (having no place to stay really, see journal), please help her out if you can! I can vouch that she's awesome and can actually really use the money, also if you want you get amazing art in return!

We'll arrive at SFO around 1pm on Jan 17th and would need a ride to the FC hotel, so if you're from SF and going there by car, we'd pay ALL THE GAS :)
