Help

I just cant find any good anthro/furry art speedpaints or drawing tutorials on youtube. I am trying to learn how to really draw and ive been getting better but when it comes to anthro details (digi legs, snouts, ears, ect.) it gets very hard. Speedpaints help me a lot, more than like tutorials, but if there is one that may help im open to it. Anything to help at this point.

In other news, my boyfriend may have found me a place to stay until I get a job and get back on my feet. And even though he is not a furry he totally thinks I should stick with what I want to do with my life. I want to learn to make fursuits. I mean. I made mine, but its not the best. I want to make fursuits, collars, yarn tails, perler badges and other fancy badges. I love making things and I want to get into art as well.

I have high hopes for my future. This isnt my first time bringing myself up from rock bottom. Abuse, drugs, homelessness multipe times, surgery last month and the one tuesday with no insurance, all of that. Ive survived a lot. but this time i feel confident more than ever since i have an amazing boyfriend and am working on a plan to better myself as a human. I will be making lists and budgets for what ill need to start up my crafting for my furries. Hopefully i can get another bartending job. its a job i love. if not, back to fast food. but thats okay to me as long as im moving up, which is the only directing for me to head anymore.

wish me luck you guys! im already making new characters you should be seeing here soon with terrible practice art haha. I may also draw up my DnD characters and put them up here because I am falling in love with them so much! Im still into RP and getting back into it so if you want to RP with one of my characters or hear about one of my new ones, note me or message me on telegram!

New characters (I have no ref for em)

Skaia - Sabertooth Lion. Female. Bisexual. Coloration unknown as of this time.Shes a rebellious punk. Friends with Ferenz. Late 20s. About 5'2''. Willing to do NSFW RP with her.

Maxim - Wolf skull monster loosely based on a wendigo. I only have a basic character sketched up and i am open to suggestions.

Deyzuna - Smooth baby water dragon. Forest green and teal coloration. No horns. No shout. More human looking. Very long dual tails. Bright yellow eyes. Doesnt speak. only communicates in chirps. NO NSFW RP WITH HIM PLEASE.

Donis - All grey Gryphon male with icy blue eyes. Very tall. About 6'3''. Muscular and doesnt afraid of anything. His wings on his back fades from his grey to white. his hand talons are black with white nails. his back legs are that of a lion and the claws are also white. his head feathers are a pattern of various grey/white and black feathers. his beak is white. the fur on the tip of his lion tail is black. NSFW ready.

Ori - Half elf female. Portent Wizard. About 5'6''. half drow, half orc. dark blonde hair pulled back into a bun. pale skin. almost entirely blacked out eyes. wears light armor over her whole body with a grey/white coloration. wears a white cloak over her bag of holding that carries her spellbook and other various supplies. she is very studious and serious. a no-nonsesne look at everything and very quiet and logical. almost always scheming even if she doesnt act on it. her alignment so far is something akin to chaotic neutral but i like to keep her neutral more than anything.

I have a few more DnD characters but i like to flesh them out in campaign so i dont have them down all the way.

Ren - Female halfling bard
Bocoe - Male Dwarf rogue
Tia - Female Human ranger

So my mental and physical health havent been the best the last couple years. But they have gotten worse over the past year and i have zero insurance to do anything about it. i also recently became homeless and am currently couch surfing. i just had a big surgery 2 months ago and i have another coming up on tuesday thats pretty much going to make me infertile. my depression has been getting worse because of my condition. the only thing i have is a boyfriend who is trying so hard to help me. and he is. but he can only do so much.

getting back into DnD and making new fursonas has been somewhat helping but ive also distanced myself from most of my friends and i feel awful. i havent made the best decisions in life. i had a huge drug problem a couple years back that i hid very well. but now that i admit to it friends are getting mad at me. idk.

i just wanted to rant. i just wanna talk to people. i just wanna make more characters. i just wanna heal and get better. i dont care about medical bills. ill let them go to collections rather than beg and ask for help.

all i want is people to talk to again. even if its just through RP.

so if you wanna just talk or have an RP with any of my characters, send me a note. id love to without a doubt! ^^

How goes it, fam?

So at Anthrocon this year I got my twitter back up but I probably won't use it. So instead I got a telegram.
My handle on both is Lordmaxmos

Add me on there because I miss my furry family. Talk to me. I'll hop on here every so often to see how you all are. But eventually I will be gone again. Thank you.

All I have is my cell phone and a lot of these furry sites are hard to keep up on with just my smartphone. So I will probably be leaving this site for a while or possibly forever. Idk if there are any good apps for furries to keep social. But I wont be on here.

If you want me, I have skype, instagram and kik.
My username on all of them is lordmaxmos
Feel free to add me. Or if you have a Facebook message me for mine and I'll add you.

Sorry bout all this guys. Just getting to be a pain keeping up on here.

Thank you. Love you all.

See you at Anthrocon if you're going.

Peace.

Things I lost since I last posted:
My job
My car
My will to live.

So I am really trying to get back onto a lot of sites for support but it is a pain in the ass.

If anyone has Kik or Instagram find me. my name on both of them is the same as it is on here. If you don't have them, idk what to tell you.

I have a Facebook you can Note me for that if you want. But I talk more over KIK and IG. KIK is more for RPing though so I usually attend to them before a regular conversation.

Ive been beyond depressed and sad and shitty so yeah. Not getting better. Getting worse. Sorry guys.

But still hella low. Havent been on much social media lately.
Just work then sleep.

ill get out of it eventually.

sorry everyone. <3

Feeling a bit better than I was. Decided to permanently stay with my friends until I'm ready to move on with my life. I need the support and roof over my head.

Still not doing well with my recent loss. My grandma was my world. And now no longer here. Me and my mom are taking it hard and will need time to recover still. It will be a while.

Thanks for the support and kind words I've gotten from you guys. I'll be trying to get active on here again so I can tall to you all again.

My grandmother passed away this morning.
I won't be on much.
At all.
Sorry.

For a perler badge.

413 and 420 are next.
get it and message me or whatever ya know.

Last couple days I have been having a hard time with my schizophrenia and bpd. And it has been really hard on me. It's getting really hard to get out of bed and when i do i cant seem to keep my body moving, which usually helps.

Nothing in particular happened to trigger this, it just sort of happened. I tried hooking my tablet up to draw and make myself feel better but my laptop crashed and that was no help.

So sorry if i am out of it and not responding to notes or shouts that much. Im trying but at the same time, cripes. Took me long enough to post this damn journal.
