Lookin' to get art for a few friends...
Kat
Ame
Joey (esp. Joey b/c his birthday is on the 2nd and I don't have anything for him wEEPS)
Vix

You'd be drawing one of the above four characters. Two girls, two boys to choose from. All furs.

I could draw basically anything in return? But I'd like our art to be at least somewhat on-par, I don't really want to do a shaded pic for an MS Paint doodle OTL;;;
As usual I'm way better at humans/kemonos, but furs are a-ok as long as I like the design.

If you're interested, lemme know who you'd like to draw, and what you'd be interested in drawing and receiving from me.
;w;

Not sure when they'll be done. I'm in a rut about' 'em, even after making a base to do them on. If you've got one ordered, and would like a refund, let me know.

I didn't expect so many people to want them, and it'sjust really really really stressing me out.

There's a bunch of sweet pretty adopts that I super love by ali and pajuxi that I rlly want to own, basically any of 'em really, so I'm looking to get me some more! I've got money to spend, or I have some adopts for trade as well. I would also be totally cool with paying you in art! I have a bunch of new samples that aren't posted, mostly human, but yeh!

I'm open to adopts not by them too! Here's a list of things I like in designs...

+ Cute boys, cute girls
+ Pastels
+ Japanese street fashions (lolita, fairy kei, visual kei, decora, etc...)
+ Kemonomimis
+ Humans
+ Multi-coloured hair
+ Mismatched shoes
+ Glasses
+ fRECKLES OMG

And some things I'm not looking for at all

x Anthros (unless popular closed species haaaaahaaaa i'm a shit okay or designed by one of the artists in the journal header)
x Plain and boring
x Super duper garishly bright colours (for the most part, you can offer if you warn me beforehand)

Note me or link me to trades and sale and things you've got!! <3

And I'm sure I'll be waiting another year and a half before I have any chance whatsoever of getting a slot from you. Not that I've been waiting that long for even a chance or anything, nooo, of course not. And not that one of those slots got snatched by someone that has like 6 pictures from you already and is a huge name in the ABDL side of the fandom and has 100000 pieces of art.

And not that I'm waiting on an icon from someone else that should take an hour that I've been waiting on for at least 2.5 months

Or a commission from yet another person that I've been waiting on for 9 months, was told I'd get a refund for, and never did. And I'm not even in any prioity on their queue, plus they've commissioned since then so they've clearly had at least some money???

Jesus fucking christ, I'm really sick of people. I really, truly am. Especially because the two I'm owed art from are supposedly my friends? Somehow I doubt that, or they'd make sure I actually was being treated like a proper commissioner, instead of prioritizing people who've commissioned them much more recently over me.

At least they aren't a certain popufur that took my commission, took my payment, spoke to a creepbag little friend, and then refunded me promptly because they "no longer felt comfortable working with me" because their "friend" is a lying, creepy, rapist who I've never even made contact with, but they have a huge grudge against me. Hah.
It sucks, because I always wanted art from them, and I'll never be able to get it because of that scumbag.

Would anyone be interested???
It'll probably be done in an hour or two after my cookies have been baked.
(also work on commissions will not be able to be started until at least late tomorrow night/Sunday night, due to foregoing activities I was unaware of with Joey's family).

JFC I literally hate them so much.
I can't even stop using them.
It's either I de with their shit, or I don't have Internet and can't make money at all.
Because they have a literal monopoly on the Internet in my area. No other internet provider is able to service us. Their prices are high as hell, and their customer service blows fucking ass.

They're charging me two months b/c my payment from like 9 days ago apparently didn't go through or some shit? But ever other month has been paid. They can't be fucking charging me twice for a bill that's 9 days overdue (that I was never alerted to in the first place???) and just I literally don't know what to do because we do NOT have that money rn. and I have commissions I need to do but can't work on because I don't have my computer here so I can't even take more commissions and just
I can't
Have a bank account that's $160 in the whole because of some shitty fucking company.
-cries-

Merry fucking Christmas to us, huh?
Hope I get enough money from my Grandma to have gas to drive us the 300 miles back home for Christmas.

Basic idea: Joey dressed up in an ugly Christmas sweater, probably looking like a Christmas tree, with a tree-topper star on his head, and probably Christmas lights wrapped around him. Red is trying to arrange presents at his feet.

This is either going to be them as adults, or them as Cubs, it depends on the artist.

If you're open, or know someone who is, leave examples and prices please! <3

It doesn't have to be done by Christmas or anything, because I know it's short notice, but I'd prefer if it was done as close to them as possible!

Sorry guys...
:\

Can't actually bring it, I forgot I have nowhere to set it up at my Mum's house anymore since I brought my desk back here. All commissions will be given ASAP, and in the meantime I'll try and sketch them all up traditionally so you can have WIPS.
;A;

I'll be back Christmas Eve. ;w;

Got commissions to finish, so Ima have to drag my desktop on the 5 hour trip to visit my parents for a few days. Yay.
UUGGGGGHHHHHH.

Pretty much makes me wanna jump off a cliff, okay? I really, really, really can't stand it. I draw something for myself? It turns out pretty okay. I try and draw something for anyone else? Absolute shit. I want to draw gift art for people, but I get so stressed over how bad it looks and the fact that they'll probably laugh at it that I just throw the file out the window.

Does anyone have any decent, easy to follow fur anatomy tutorials or anything?
:\

If you'd like the link, note me, and I'll gladly hand it over. I posted a very long-winded response to it, explaining the entire story of what actually happened, and how the OP of it is a lying, creepy, douchebag internet stalker who failed to mention that he didn't even order art from me. No form of art at all. No sculpture, painting, drawing, weaving, beading, etc. etc.
Which means it isn't even an artist's beware matter, especially because it was from my Tumblr, which isn't art related in the slightest.

EDIT;; An amazing and lovely person sent me a note and is buying it for me. ;//A//;
I literally cannot express my gratitude to them enough.


This thing is not expensive. It's $24.99. But I'll do almost anything for you if you get it for me.

It's this plush wolf.
http://m.ebay.com/itm/371209306812?nav=SEARCH
That exact style.

Let me explain why such a seemingly small and silly thing is so important to me...
Basically, it's like this. I have this exact same plush. I bought him 5.5 years ago at an amusement park on my birthday. He's basically the embodiment of an extremely special person, who was very close to me, who I'll never be able to see again.
This style of plush has been discontinued. It's been replaced in the line by a new style. They're really, really hard to find now.

I want another one like him, not to replace him (because nothing in the world could ever do that), but for basically two reasons.
1) In the extremely horrid and off chance something ever happens to my current one, I'll at least have something sort of similar.
2) I want to have a new one, to remind me of just how much mine is loved. He's super matted, a lot of his fluff has vanished and compressed. He's all floppy. I want one to sit around as an example.

I know this probably still sounds silly, but... This plush really does mean more to me than any other posession I own. Even a few of my other stuffed animals, though hilariously important to me, can't compare. He was my friend when I had none. I can confide to him when no one else will listen. I hold him, and it's almost like holding the person he represents. I just... I honestly cannot possibly explain how important this plush wolf is to me.

But just... If you have the money, and have it in your heart, please... Consider buying this one thing for me.
As I said, I'll do basically anything. You want me to draw three ref sheets for each of your characters' separate dicks? Done. They'll be as detailed as I can get them.You want me to art slave for a few days for you? Done. I'll be yours from wake until sleep if I have to.

Just please... If you can... Help me out?

Go here for all the details, and to put yourself down! I'll be buying any more stamps if I decide to do more than six tonight when I hit the post office, and I'll have them in the mail tomorrow.

Hey everyone!! I found a giant pack of cards and a few stamps while I was cleaning up earlier. I don't send letters or anything really, so I thought maybe you guys would like a card from me? ;w;

Each one will have a little note and a doodle inside, and one lucky person will get a little silly card in their envelope that will entitle them to a free chibi or headshot from me!

I only have six stamps, so if more than six people comment, I'll just do a raffle to see who gets the cards (or I'll probably actually walk my butt down the road 2 minutes to the post office to buy more stamps).

Anyhow, this means that you have to be okay with giving me your address, and you have to live in the US unfortunately. >x<
But anywho, these will be sent out probably tomorrow or the day after. So just comment below if you're interested!

I was tagged by the sweetie pajuxi

STEP ONE
Make a post to your DA journal. The post should contain your list of ten holiday wishes. The wishes can be anything at all, from simple and fandom-related ("I'd love a ______ icon that's just for me") to medium ("I wish for _____ on DVD") to really big ("all I want for Christmas is a new car/computer/house/TV."). The important thing is, make sure these wishes are things you really, truly want.

If you wish for real life things (not fics or icons), make sure you include some sort of contact info in your post, whether it's your address or just your email address where Santa (or one of his elves) could get in touch with you.

Also, make sure you post some version of these guidelines in your DA or link to this post so that the holiday joy will spread.

STEP TWO
Surf around your friends list (or friends' friends, or just random journals) to see who has posted their list. And now, here's the important part:

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 -- do it.

You need not 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. Give, and you might receive. and you'll have the joy of knowing you made someone's holiday special.


I wish for..

1. Art for all my friends, like pajuxi gillbear nycket dippers and littlebluenose!!

Hey all, what's up?

I feel like I've been pretty scarce around the entirety of the internet lately, and it's been really bothering me for a few reasons. I've been scarce not only here and Tumblr, but basically everywhere. I've just sort of stopped feeling a connection to this side of my life, for the most part, and I'm not sure why. Not a disconnect with my "furry" side or anything, but I guess a lot more of a re-connect with "Real Life".

See, while I was in school, this is how stuff always worked. I'd have a group of friends that I'd hang out with/play with during school, which was great. However... outside of school, things didn't really work well for me. I'd get invited to parties that the whole class got invited to. I think I had three total sleepovers, each with a separate friend, throughout the entirety of my Elementary career. Middle School took that and dropped it off a cliff. I had a new group of friends that I'd made, and we ate lunch together and hung out in the few gym/tech classes some of us had together. I had a single friend who's house I went over to every now and then, which was nice... And I guess I sort of had another friend, who I really struggle to call a friend, who would hang out with my outside of school sometimes. But she only ever hung out with me as a last resort because no one else was available/wanted to hang out with her. I think I knew, even then, but I was so desperate to not be alone (I grew up an only child in the middle of nowhere) that I never really cared.

The bullying started in 8th grade, and at that point every single one of my friends abandoned me, for fear that I would drag them down with me. That was when I found GaiaOnline, and started actually making friends. Real friends, even though they were online. I met a boy through my cousin, who I still talk to to this day, who swiftly became my online 'protector', earning him the title that he still keeps as my older brother. I made other friends, all of whom eventually just stopped popping up online, and so they faded away, but since it wasn't because of me, I wasn't all that bothered, and was thankful of the time I'd had with them. Through the rest of that year, and throughout High School, the internet became a safe haven for me, as it seems to do for those who are lost. The later into schooling I got, the more friends I sort of started to make again... I had a new group in a new school district, some of which I'd known before I moved, that I hung out with during school. But that Middle School era thing started coming back... I wasn't included in plans outside of school, even when they were made right in front of me. I had to actually forcefully ask if I was invited, while everyone else had an auto-invite. And me being forceful is a thing that really just doesn't happen, and happened even less back then, especially when I could tell that I wasn't really all that wanted.
Sure, I'd had my fair share of boyfriends and girlfriends that I hung out with, but they were all during summer/while I didn't have any friends to begin with other than them. And I honestly regret dating most of those people, because I know I only did it because I was lonely with horrid self-esteem, and anyone who was interested in me I was almost instantly interested in back. Not proud of those days.

After High School, after realizing that college wasn't for me at the time, moving back home... I found this place through a really dumb decision of a kind of shitty half-rapist 'boyfriend'. But this place did so much for me. I've made a fair share of friends here, and lost a few as well... but I love those I've met here, and consider them real friends just as I would offline friends. I don't dismiss any of you wonderful people just because of how we happen to have met, or how we communicate. You're still great friends. But online friends unfortunately still didn't really cut it for me, because I didn't do well without offline people to be there for me. My boyfriend at the time was sort of a lazy oaf, who didn't really know what he was doing... So let's not count him. It was another thing of me needing someone/low self-esteem/yadda yadda. Thankfully, somewhere in this after-school mumbo jumbo mess, two of my all time best friends moved back to town 5 minutes down the road from me, and I actually had people to hang out with every know and then that truly liked me for me, and didn't hang out with me just because there was no one else around. Those two girls are two of my best friends still, despite the differences that occurred between the two of them, and I don't know where I'd be without either of them.

Fast forward all the way to now.
Since moving here to Rochester last July, my life has changed so much. I've had two apartments, gone to college for a bit, made friends on my own. It took me a while, mind you... I was still in that rut of being afraid people wouldn't like me in the slightest, and would stop hanging out with joeydragon or make plans with him and not include me, so I didn't even want him hanging out with people. But eventually... eventually when I realized what a shit I was being, and started going around to the local anime store to play cards with people on the weekends... I started making real friends. Actual, true, real, offline friends. That wanted to hang out with me outside of the store. They weren't related to me, I didn't know any of them before I moved. Sure, Joey helped me. A lot. They basically all started as his friends... but they became mine, as well. It's still sort of unreal for me, and it's been months now. We hang out a couple days a week, and just goof off and play card games and watch anime. We hang out for hours at a time, it's great. We've had people come over at 9pm and stay until 4am on multiple occasions. I've fucked up in front of them, and they're still there. They don't think of me as "Joey's girlfriend" and feel obligated to be nice to me because of that. It... it really is unreal. I've never had this.

Anyhow, where I was going with all of this: Because of how much time I spend with Offline friends now days, the online world is just almost losing it's appeal. I'm realizing even more how many shitty people there are around here. How much the stress of trying to make money through taking commissions and failing has been hurting me. The stress from seeing people years younger than me with absolutely holy shit amazing art, and the looking at my own and going... "Wow... and I kinda liked this before." How much... well, just, a lot of things. And it's making me feel pretty disconnected from the web, and to a slighter extent, my art. So that's why I'm not really around much anymore.
If you've actually managed to make it this far into reading, I'm proud of you. Here, have a cookie.



TL;DR: Red's a shit and her Offline friendships are replacing the need she had for being online at all times.

Something like this. I used to do these all the time, and then I just sort of stopped for some reason. But I'd like to get back into them. So, leave me refs! As usual, humanoids will be most likely to be picked... I'm really in the mood to draw demons right now, especially. I'd also really dig maybe doing a dreamy though!!
So just, y'know, post with some refs.
☆*:.｡. o(≧▽≦)o .｡.:*☆

I can't figure it out. Probably becAUSE I'm using my phone??
@~@;;

If anyone could like just link me to the character add page or something idk???
;w;

(Ps. also thanks so much to the lovely fine for the code, I really appreciate it!!!!)

I have a collab sample finally!
;w;

ali did the original sketch for me a while ago, as seen here. I inked, coloured, shaded, and did the background and everything, as seen here!

I'm asking on this account because I've got way more watchers.

These can either be adopt collabs, commission collabs, or just like an art trade sort of thing? Idk. I just really love collab-y stuff!

Comment here, or note littleredridinghood (don't note this account, please! I don't check it much!) if you're interested!
Note that I [i]will not[/url] sketch, but I will do any/all of the other stages.

... Just because I am talking to you, does not give you the right to chuckle and dismiss the fact that I've got severe social anxiety about 85-90% of the time, and still have trouble ordering my own food at restaurants? Or even making small talk with the checkout clerk? I can't even Skype my friends most of the time unless they skype me first.

Are you going to tell me next that I don't have BPD just because you've never seen me have an episode? Are you going to tell me I don't have IBS because you've never seen me in the bathroom for an hour almost crying from stomach pain? Probably.

Are you going to laugh at a cancer patient who's in remission and call them a faker because they don't appear to have symptoms? No. You wouldn't. So why would you do something so hurtful to me? I know it isn't quite the same in reality, but the idea is similar.

Just because you can't see my symptoms at this exact moment, does NOT mean that they aren't real. Understand?

Desperately.
Legit started tearing up seeing him with a different owner.
So uh.
Raising money for that.
I should not be this upset over this, but I am.

PWYW commissions and normal commissions still open... Might sell other adopts to get the money to buy him back.

My favorite singer in the world, Keith Harkin... I just... I'm at his concert. I've got reserved seating. I'm in the front row. And he's operating his own merch table.

And my mum gave me $10. And I bought a poster.
And and and
He talked to me
Cause like
He sold it to me
And I was like stuttering
And I could hear the laughter in his voice when he thanked me for buying
And I sorta just scuttled away and forgot to say Thank You

guys HELP I DON'T KNOW HOW TO LIVE NOW LIKE FUCK MY FAVOURITE CELEBRITY TALKED TO ME LIFE IS COMPLETE
;w;

If any of you have read the sell submission for Requiem I just put up, you'll know I'm desperate for money ASAP. I have a sudden lack of funds, and a lot that needs to be paid for right now. If my electric bill isn't paid by tomorrow we'll be without power.

I am taking commissions like crazy. My price sheet is my featured submission. Take25% off my prices. Also doing PWYC/PWYW commissions.

And taking fucking donations.
Money goes to cjegrace0627[at]gmail.com please

(and unrelated I just found out I got a 59 on my fucking first test. Great. Not sure how that happened. I hate school...)

I can't deal with this site anymore. I can't deal with the people on it, the majority of who can't seem to give a rat's ass about each other. I need $200 for important things? Too fucking bad.

Person X needs $600 to buy the new blah blah blah and the 5 accessories to go with it?? Got the money and then some within like 30 minutes.

I can't handle this shit. I try to offer anything and everything I can think of for commissions. I've tried varying prices. More expensive. Less expensive. Full-bodies for $1.00. Full colour pictures for $1.00. Nothing sells. Nothing works. I can't get a job offline, that's the reason I'm trying to do commissions. My mental health doesn't allow me to have a real job. But no one really seems to care.

So I'm gone. Account's being deactivated for a bit.
I just... can't.

If you need me, add me on Google Hangouts (cj.grace13@gmail.com) or on Skype (nwolfesgirl) and lemme know who you are.

So yeah.

Bye for now.
