Last Day Of My 20s
Posted 11 years agoToday is the last day of my 20s. At the end of today it will be confirmed that I wasted my youth. :P
It's hard not to feel a bit bleh about it. At the same time - in the past couple of months I have put in motion (with the help of my dad) something which could be an exciting change for the new year. I'm just not quite ready to talk about it yet! It has the potential to really shake things up and bring something more to my life. I'm glad that I started with it before the big 3-0. Because symbolic reasons.
This weekend I am off home to Glasgow to see my dad and do some Xmas shopping to celebrate my birthday. And get a whole new haircut that I'm probably too old for (something like this: http://www.pinterest.com/pin/500321839823820919/). But in the words of Germaine Greer/a number of other people this quote has been attributed to - "You're only young once, but you can be immature forever". YEP.

Loss of a Pet
Posted 11 years agoYesterday, we had to have my dog Riker (greyhound cross whippet) put to sleep. He was 12 years old and I had had him since he was a tiny puppy.
Since Monday he became rapidly ill ending up with a stroke on Thursday which left him suffering badly. He was thought to have a severe neurological problem. I do not doubt the decision I made but the memories of him being in pain and distress on Thursday night and Friday morning will haunt me for some time.
I will miss Riker deeply since he had been with me my entire adult life (since I was about 18) and shared pretty much all my memories with me, came to all the places I moved to, moved from country to country with me. I take consolation in that Riker never had any other illness in his entire 12 year life until the end (unless you count the little bit of arthritis he'd developed in the past couple of years, but it never seemed to bother him too much). And that for the last week, and for the end, we were lucky enough to find a truly caring and wonderful vet who did everything he could to help us and council us.
---
Excuse me if I'm not around too much or very responsive in the coming days. This has come at a particularly bad time for me because my depression has been at a very low point in the past weeks. I will endeavor to keep working on all owed art but once again, if you have unstarted art that you would like a refund on please just contact me - it is no problem to offer you a refund. Thanks for understanding.

The Broken Elbow Update (Commissioners pls read)
Posted 11 years agoFor anyone who missed it, last Saturday I fell and had the misfortune to break my elbow.
So! Due to stuff and nonsense (just not gonna go into it here..it's tiresome) I did not get a smaller/lighter cast put on yesterday as scheduled. Not too happy about that, needless to say. I am quite tired of this huge, heavy, hot plaster cast but am now stuck with it for 3 weeks, till October 13th (I shall be counting down the days!).
The one-arm thing is interfereing with my art more than I had hoped. I can't do digital because I have no hand for the keyboard or to reach tablet hotkeys (no ctrl-z! no shift! v fun) and traditional is awkward - my lack of a left hand to move the paper around, as is my custom, is problematic in making sketches larger than A5. I am working on colouring the commission I had fully sketched out right now, but for the moment this must also be done in small doses since simple things like "taking the cap off a pen" become awkward.
The bottom line - every full colour commission, especially digital, will be delayed. I'm very sorry about that. But what I can offer my commissioners who do not wish to wait is a full refund. Just get in touch and let me know. No trouble at all.
If I can figure out some kind of smaller, more manageable commission type to offer you guys in the meantime I may do so! It is terribly boring to be stuck home not able to do much. >_>
Thanks a lot for your understanding and once again if you have any issues or questions about a commission you have outstanding with me, just let me know.

Broken Elbow
Posted 11 years agoHey guys,
Today I fell and managed to break my left elbow. This is a heads-up that art will be a bit delayed because I now have to wear a huge unwieldy cast slung across my chest - I expect when I get to downgrade it to a smalller one (in a bit over a week) that i'll be able to get back to work. I am right handed thankfully!
I do have a finished piece to scan and upload (hopefully tomorrow) though so don't be amazed at my healing prowess when you see that. :D
Thanks for your understanding.

EF Trip Report
Posted 11 years agoWell, I got back from Eurofurence on Sunday night but I have been deadddd so haven't gotten round to making a post yet.
This year's EF was of course in the new hotel, the Estrel, and I have to say I was quite impressed with the hotel itself in most regards. The new Dealer's Den was very nice - very spacious, very bright. The art show was large though unfortunately I got a really bad spot in a corner facing a wall. :( Rooms were okay (though a step down from the old hotel), on-site food was pretty damn expensive and not really to my tastes, breakfast good, drinks slightly less eye-wateringly expensive than the old hotel, staff were friendly and efficient. Downsides were the elevators (OH GOD) and the area of the hotel which was minging.
I got to see fewer people than I'd have liked this year for various reasons, but was happy to reconnect with a couple of old friends which was awesome. <3 Got to meet some lovely new people, talk with commissioners/buyers again which I always love, and generally it was a relatively stress free con. I say relatively because there will always be the OH GOD MUST FINISH ALL OF THE WORK TIME IS TICKING OH GOD. ;)
A huge thanks to everyone who dropped by my table in the dealer's den to purchase things or just to say hi! And of course to those who took home my artwork from the art show. I have two pieces left from that ("Astekhu" and "King of the Covers") and they are currently available to buy on my Storenvy along with a variety of my remaining prints and some original art magnets : http://korrok.storenvy.com/
My next convention will be next year at NordicFuzzCon in Sweden. Definitely one to check out, it looks like it will be an awesome event!

Taken
How old are you?
LAST CON OF MY 20'S that's all I'm sayin'
How tall are you?
5'9"/175cm
Which languages do you speak?
English, and I understand a decent bit of Dutch. My spoken Dutch is terrible though so..Englishpls.
Where will you be most of the time during the day?
In the Dealer's Den at my table, flogging my wares.
Who will you be with?
I have no idea. Depends who wants to tolerate me at the time!
Do you do free art?
Nope
Do you do trades?
Sometimes, when the stars align and I'm not too tired.
Do you do commissions?
Yep, that's why I'm there! I do badges and sketches.
Do you have prints/ CDs?
I have some lovely prints for you to browse.
What suit(s) will you have?
None, due to my health issues I no longer fursuit.
Can I dance with you?
I won't be dancing :D
Can I touch you?
If it's in a normal "tap shoulder for attention" type way, just don't creep on me because I will not appreciate that shit.
Can I talk to you?
Please do!
Can I hug you?
Should really go with NO from now on because so many people keep crushing/bearhugging/thumping my back during hugs and it causes me a lot of pain. >:|
Can I take photos of you/with you?
No, this is my one big No.
Can I buy you lots of drinks?
Of course! I'm a cocktail fan.
Do you drink Alcohol/Smoke?
Alcohol yep, smoking never.
Can I give you lots of money?
Come to my dealer's table and feel free!
Can I hug or snuggle with you?
Hugging as above. As for snuggling, absolutely no, I'm not a touchy-feely person.
Can we hang out?
Probably! If I'm not already promising to spend time with others I'd be happy to.
Are you nice?
I think I'm pretty nice :P
Other cons you may go to?
No more plans for 2014. Next year considering NFC and will probably be at CFz.

Doubtful
How can I find you at the con?
I will be shackled to my Dealer's table for the best part of the day, it should give people ample opportunity to find me. :3

Are you buying art?
Probably not, I'm saving my pennies.
What do I have to watch out for, when I am meeting you?
A lot of people think I look tired, annoyed and depressed even when I'm not. I have bitchy tired resting face.
What is the best way to contact you?
Come up to my dealer's table!
May I kidnap you to my room?
I would far prefer to be invited..that said, I tend to favour the con space.
You look pretty tired, are you ok?
If I look tired, I am probably just being me as normal. Please do not feel the need to mention it or tell me I look terrible. If I look really ill, I'm probably less okay.
Last time/last con/last meet/last chat we talked so much and now you forgot my name? Why???
If we spoke a lot I'll remember you, but I don't remember names well.
Will you tell me your room-number and can I surprise visit you?

1 Wing It Commission Slot Still Available! (TAKEN)
Posted 11 years agoAll slots taken, thanks guys!
WHAT IS "WING IT"?
Wing It means that you allow me, the artist, artistic freedom over your commission. You may supply a short paragraph of information about your character's personality or interests and I will use this to create something appropriate.
Importantly, you do not receive a sketch to approve and there are no revisions. Any errors that I make with the character's markings/details are my responsibility to fix, or if I'm unsure, I'll check with you. This allows for a somewhat quicker turnaround time than normal commissions and thus allows for a lower price point.

Comment About My Pinup Art - Thoughts?
Posted 11 years agoFirstly let me say, I am not offended by this in the slightest. I find it interesting, and I suppose had not really thought about it much until it was pointed out to me now a few times.
The comment is that my pinup characters, particularly the female characters, always tend to look too strong/dominant/confident, where shy/submissive characters are much more popular. And it's true, there's very few I've drawn that look shy and submissive - it usually runs from playful to "rawr".
So tell me, people of FA - what are your thoughts on this? Do you prefer pinups where the character is more shy and coy? Would you like to see me draw more of them? I'm really interested to know!

---
So apparently I am basically "boyish" despite spending most of my free cash on clothes, makeup and nail polish, watching beauty blogs and being really into high end makeup brands etc. Well okay! :S
I actually have a big problem with this kind of thing because they reinforce to women who aren't part of this stupid stereotype that they are somehow less, that they're not "real" women and it leads to gender confusion and depression. This is not what being girly or boyish is about and it's sad that some people would have you think so.

So apparently I am basically "boyish" despite spending most of my free cash on clothes, makeup and nail polish, watching beauty blogs and being really into high end makeup brands etc. Well okay! :S
I actually have a big problem with this kind of thing because they reinforce to women who aren't part of this stupid stereotype that they are somehow less, that they're not "real" women and it leads to gender confusion and depression. This is not what being girly or boyish is about and it's sad that some people would have you think so.

Your Favourite Songs of 2013?
Posted 12 years agoSo FA's back! Hurray. I've still been filling my Inkbunny and Weasyl galleries for those who might like to keep up on me if things go awry again, or commissioners who need a point of contact in such a time and have forgotten my email (it's the same as my Paypal, and on korrok.com!).
That said, this journal has a wholly different purpose!
I want to know your favourite songs of 2013. Released in 2013, that is - not necessarily what you've mostly listened to. :3
Give me YouTube links or just the names of the songs to check out on Spotify!
And in return, here are mine:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NVE8-FiAE4I - Mesh - Born to Lie
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FOBbQztjekQ - Mindless Self Indulgence - Assbackwards
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tGE381tbQa8 - Panic! At The Disco - This Is Gospel
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PwwtOd3pMlk - Manic Street Preachers ft Richard Hawley - Rewind The Film
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IN7_zcKbN9w - Manic Street Preachers - Anthem For A Lost Cause
I will be very sad if I get a dozen links to Ylvis "The Fox". That is all.
Go!

Ye Olde Annual "Post Your Wishlist" Meme
Posted 12 years agoIt's that time of year again when I've seen these popping up, so I figured I'd post mine. :) I've bought something for someone every year and a couple of times I've had nice packages, so it's always been fun!
~Step 1~
Make a post in your journal containing your list of 10 holiday wishes. The wishes can be anything at all, from simple to really big. The important thing is, make sure these wishes are things you really, truly want.
If you wish for real-life things, make sure you include some sort of contact info in your post, whether it's your address or just your email address where folks could get in touch with you.
~Step 2~
Surf around other lists to see who has posted their list. If you see a wish you can grant, and it's in your heart to do so, make someone's wish come true. Sometimes someone's trash is another's treasure, and if you have a leather jacket you don't want or a gift certificate you won't use--or even know where you could get someone's dream for free--do it. You needn't spend money on these wishes unless you want to. The point isn't to put people out, it's to provide everyone a chance to be someone else's holiday elf--to spread the joy. Gifts can be made anonymously or not--it's your call. There are no rules with this project, no guarantees, and no strings attached. Just...wish, and it might come true. Give, and you might receive. And you'll have the joy of knowing you made someone's holiday special!
1. I have an Amazon wishlist! It has many things, including a bunch for my pets (I do not, in fact, eat cat food): http://www.amazon.co.uk/registry/wi...../2CF7HVIKHFXH9
2. NerdLacquer nail polishes! They're not available anymore, but maybe someone has them laying around forgotten and unloved. I WOULD LOVE THEM FOR YOU SO HARD.
3. For you to donate to charity! My suggested charities:
Cat's Protection https://www.cats.org.uk/donate
Dog's Trust http://www.dogstrust.org.uk/giving/.....s/default.aspx
BUAV http://www.buav.org/donate
The Hypermobility Syndromes Association http://hypermobility.org/donate/
4. Any Siamese cat print(s) from the wonderful artist Suzanne LeGood, e.g. http://www.suzannelegoodcats.com/sh.....roducts_id=143
5. Art of my two Siamese cats, Shanti & Teemo. Nothing furry/anthro, definitely nothing adult, just them as cats being cats, stylized or realistic, I don't mind! I'd love to see some takes on them. There are several photos of both in my gallery, this is Shanti: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/11770790/ and this is Teemo: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/12065164/ (I have more if requested :P)
6. Any actual monetary donations or tips from those who have enjoyed my art in the past year are always welcome. I have a lot of stuff to pay upcoming, particularly a trip back to Scotland to renew my passport in January which is a rather large expense. ;; You can sent by Paypal to korrokhyena[at]gmail.com if you so choose.
7. That bat mount in World of Warcraft from the Blizz store..I have resisted so long but the damn thing is so cool. >_>
8. Various League of Legends champions or skins if you like gifting there! E.g. skins: Infernal Nasus (<3), Pool Party Renekton, Mafia Miss Fortune, or Vandal Twitch, champions: Cassiopeia, Kennen, Diana, Malzahar, Galio. Or a mystery skin! Gotta love a mystery. <3
That's basically it, I can't think of 10. :P I hope you all have a wonderful Christmas, and I look forward to reading over your wishlists in the comments! (DO IT)
