Iron Artist FULL! If ya got one note me the details and refs
Posted 15 years agoOkies, since I will be completing my house move this weekend I'll post this now so that people can start getting info to me before I lose my internet connection for a few days, while I get accounts and connections transferred, blah blah. My new flat is so pretty *_* Just need that nice corner desk unit and a new monitor in me bedroom so I can art comfortably, not like I am right now hunched over on a broken couch with my laptop resting on a cardboard box!!!
The deal is simple flat colour/ slight shading on the characters and simple background/props. $20 for single character, $28 for two.
I WILL DRAW: Portraits, hetero/gay/lesbian porn/yiff, toys, bondage, micro/macro, tentacles, herm, oral, non pornographic feral, chibi, any other fairly tame thing I've missed :P
I WON'T DRAW: Scat, watersports, vore, inflation, fat (will draw realistic/slightly chubby, nothing madly obese), hyper (will draw 'large' boobs/penis, but not huge), babyfur, snuff, transformation, copyrighted characters (fanart), bestiality, feral yiff (will allow sheath/animal penis on an mostly anthro character).
I will aim to try and complete each pic over two evenings after the day job, and possibly a whole one or two on a Sunday :P
I'll be accepting Paypal and cash if you are one of the poor unfortunates who gets to see me in person XD
Thank you all for your time and interest <3
If anyone requests a commission as a secret gift, PM me and I'll put [SECRET] against your slot number :P

Iron Artist?
Posted 15 years agoThey seem immensely popular these days and fun to watch people complete. I'd ~kinda~ like to have a go at one myself, maybe just ten slots to start at $20 single character (+$8 for second character), that I could use to put towards things for my flat (in dire need of a good workdesk, and possibly a new monitor to plug my lappy into so I can work on a larger, more colour accurate screen). I have fursuit projects I'm champing at the bit to get on with but until my flat move, plus the decorating, is complete... that's a non-starter :( Been warned that filling the rooms with fluff and foam snippets before we do the painting is gonna be disastrous. I can wreck it all I like afterwards!
Allowing myself the weekend to tie off my current couple of outstanding works, I'd think about opening slots on Monday for single or two character simple digital pieces in flat colour/ simple shading, that I could potentially complete one a night/night and a half after work.

Posted 15 years agoSome further complications have delayed my move into a fourth month. Since the fursuit projects are going to feel the biggest impact of this (I can't set up my workspace while prospective tennants are viewing my current rented place during the day) I'll be concentrating on moving artwork along until mid september when hopefully the contracts WILL be exchanged and I can begin my move ;_;
It's a bit stressful, looking forward to some EF relaxations :D

Possible art delays
Posted 15 years agoNo real change on the last status list I posted, most of these have been sketched and people have seen the sketches (with the exception of a couple of the derp badges) and now the colour work is gonna take a bit of time.
Some of you guys may know I agreed a sale on a flat at the start of June. Despite the fact that it was vacant, and I myself don't have a sale to make first, it's taking a wee bit of time (over two months and ongoing) which is both frustrating and disruptive to some of my projects. The estimated time to start moving my things in is mid August *fingers crosssed* Makes it very tight with conventions on either side as well. Because I want to clear what I'm already doing hopefully before September I won't be taking on any more for now. Ideally after Eurofur I'll have a nice clean slate ready to start again, and I'll be all comfy in my nice roomy new flat that belongs to me :3
Thanks to everyone who has commissioned me and thanks so much for your patience <3

Flat stuffs
Posted 15 years agoAgreed a price on the flat today with the seller so providing it doesn't suddenly fall through or I get gazumped I should be able to move in in another 6-8 weeks time. Looking forward to more space and storage. Flatwarmings will be arranged :P
I'm absolutely shattered from only getting about four hours sleep last night so I'm not doing any more badges tonight and I'm feeling a bit too lazy to even turn on my desktop to scan and edit together the completed ones, but I will do that tomorrow. I kept my eyes propped open long enough to watch Arashi no yoro ni. Freaking cute and moving story even though I had a few 'fangirl moments' (didn't know wolves blushed around young cute goats) and well recommended by
IddyBiddyBunneh
You're gonna love it
Phenol heh
Maybe a quick cuppa and a choccy and then an early night for this ickle goat :3

Weekends go so fast...
Posted 15 years agoJust chillaxing a bit after a anxiety fraught week viewing apartments to buy. That's right, I'm becoming a Homeowner XD Hoping to maybe seal a deal tomorrow on one I like. It has lots of wardrobe space for fursuits lawl
Listening to a load of game soundtracks I downloaded and working on more derps, while the Mother asks questions about them and keeps trying to get me to put my Pepper fursuit on :D I would but it's a bit dull out for photos and I just can't be arsed. I havn't even changed out of my pyjamas! I'm sure
Phenol and I will indulge her next week if we have time after the meet maybe, all down to the taxi-fox to decide lol.
Anyone else Manchester based or coming to the Manc meet who wants to commission a laminated derp badge let me know now and I can have them ready for the meet. It all goes on my mortgage now T_T
I keep rethinking bloody art commission prices, I'm no good at this pricing rubbish :P I'm gonna say £10 coloured and laminated and stick with that now.

The Furry Meme
Posted 16 years agoAre you a furry?
If the definition of furry is a person who is interested in anthro-animal artworks, writing, fursuit construction and performance, and wearing a collar and barking at people through car windows...yes? :P
If you have a Spouse/SO - Is he/she a furry too?
Nope, I'm single, and not actively looking for a partner. I do think sometimes I would like to have a fur as a partner so they would understand and possibly also enjoy my kinks... and wear the matching fursuits I would probably make for us :x
How long have you been in the community?
Only a couple of years, actively. Had my first brush with the community drawing requests of anthro anime characters (mostly digimon) and then the final push came from making a fursuit cosplay of Kyuubi (Naruto) in 2007. Being in suit gave me the final push into full involvement into the community and creation of my own fursonas.
How did you find furry?
I drew some digimon erotic artwork back in 2002/03 and then concentrated on anime style for a while... found the real definition of furry fandom through knowing a couple of furs in the anime community, and then making my first fursuit cosplay.
What's Furry to you?
Being creative, making friends, running around in fursuit for photo lulz, drawing, drinking, hanging out. The same as other fandoms really!
What are your favorite aspects of our community?
The close friends I've made and have good times with, and the creativity of artists and fursuit makers.
Do you use any furry terms? (i.e. yiff, paws, murr?)
Mostly in jest, I never take anything seriously!
What do you wish furry was NOT associated with?
CSI! The media in general - it sells sensationalism and the less desirable parts of the furry fandom tend to be the bits they expose to the ignorant masses who assume all furs are into bestiality or worse. It means that I tend to hide my involvement in furry fandom, even though I am in it for the freedom of artistic expression. And lulz.
and a tiny bit of dirty porn :3
How strongly do you feel about anyone bashing you yourself for your interest based on the media's aspect of what furry is?
To my furry and anime crowd I am open about my furry interests. It remains unspoken about around anyone else, since the media seems to have a powerful hold over most of the ignorant masses :P
We all know furries have alot of sexual aspects in this fandom, What's your opinion on it?
Furry artwork or fiction, so based in fantasy as it is, is a great vehicle for expressing real extremes of fetish in a fairly harmless way. Nothing in artwork shocks me because a) I've probably seen worse in hentai art and b) it isn't real in any way. Fantasy is hotter than reality and harmless in my opinion. As for actual sexual activity, it's not for me. I draw and talk dirty porn, but IRL I can be shy and prudish!
What is/are your fursona(s)?
I have a few fursona's!
Loui/Lulu: A deep grey/white cat dog hybrid. Is just me really. I kinda stole her design from the fantastic doodlings of
Muzz after falling in love with it, and it does look a bit like me IRL. My only female fursona so far.
Oreo:Male, black & white border collie. First fursona I designed for myself, not as a true expression of part of myself but more for a fursuit design which he became. I've drawn him and made the fursuit to look rather sly in the angle of his eyes although in other artwork he has been portrayed as rather playful. He hasn't really been developed much as a stand alone character beyond a fursuit design.
Ayari: Male, African wild dog. Also designed primarily as a fursuit design, he is chilled, with a rough and ready personality and witty sense of humour.
Pepper: Male, femboy, Neon green, black & white goat. The new kid on the block, also created first as a fursuit design, but I've become so much more involved with expressing this character artistically since I started drawing again recently. He seems to be the furry embodiment of my favorite yaoi boy type - as such he has emerged as a rather plump, pretty -uke type (submissive) with that mock-innocence in sexual situations that we dirty fangirls so love. Some trepidation in how the eventual fursuit will be received in a convention situation given the amount of porn he has featured in :x
Do you have any fetishes that pertain to the fandom?
Light bondage, and some Master/slave play I find erotic in most media. I love gay art although that is out of reach for me IRL since I am teh female and a breeder :P Which explains why I draw it so much as an outlet for my frustration heh.
If you could magically morph into your fursona would you?
It would be easier than getting in and out of fursuit!!
Do you believe you have a spirit animal?
Nah, I don't have a spiritual side at all. Apart from the type you buy at the bar.
What other fanbases/groups are you a part of?
Hopeless anime fan and as a result, a yaoi fangirl. People can slang me all they want. It's hot :P
How many of your friends are furry?
I have a fair few now, very good friends as well <3 But I still have a larger percentage of friends from the anime fandom at the moment. Probably because I've been in it longer, about eight years compared to two in the furry fandom.
How many pets do you own, if any?
Two corn snakes, Hebi (female, about 10 years old, adopted, Motley orange/sunburst) and Orochi (probably male, 12 weeks old, hatchling, Anerythristic grey)
Aside from furry what other interests do you have?
Drawing, anime, writing, cosplay and getting horribly drunk :P
Do you attend any cons? If no, would you attend any cons? If yes, which cons have you been to?
RBW 2008, Confuzzled 2009, Eurofurence 2009.
Do you go to local meetups(bowling, public outings...etc)?
As in furmeets?
The Manchester mini-meets capture a fairly good, chilled bunch. I go when I'm not working furiously to complete a fursuit project.
Have you ever attended a furry party? If no, would you attend one?
If that's a sexual thing, no. I have been out drinking or to a house get-together with other furs just for movies, chat or drawing together. I wouldn't attend any other kind of 'party'.
Have you ever met up with a fur you talked to online?
Yep, at meets. Never on a one-to-one basis.
What furry websites do you attend?
FurAffinity
What non furry websites do you frequent?
4Chan, Facebook, Efukt... and random stuff I guess
Has the fandom done anything for you that you're thankful for? Has it taught you anything or brought you anything you treasure greatly?
I've met some good friends but it didn't really really bring anything to me that I was lacking before. I just enjoy it for fun and creativity.
If the definition of furry is a person who is interested in anthro-animal artworks, writing, fursuit construction and performance, and wearing a collar and barking at people through car windows...yes? :P
If you have a Spouse/SO - Is he/she a furry too?

Being creative, making friends, running around in fursuit for photo lulz, drawing, drinking, hanging out. The same as other fandoms really!
What are your favorite aspects of our community?
The close friends I've made and have good times with, and the creativity of artists and fursuit makers.
Do you use any furry terms? (i.e. yiff, paws, murr?)
Mostly in jest, I never take anything seriously!
What do you wish furry was NOT associated with?
CSI! The media in general - it sells sensationalism and the less desirable parts of the furry fandom tend to be the bits they expose to the ignorant masses who assume all furs are into bestiality or worse. It means that I tend to hide my involvement in furry fandom, even though I am in it for the freedom of artistic expression. And lulz.
and a tiny bit of dirty porn :3
How strongly do you feel about anyone bashing you yourself for your interest based on the media's aspect of what furry is?
To my furry and anime crowd I am open about my furry interests. It remains unspoken about around anyone else, since the media seems to have a powerful hold over most of the ignorant masses :P
We all know furries have alot of sexual aspects in this fandom, What's your opinion on it?
Furry artwork or fiction, so based in fantasy as it is, is a great vehicle for expressing real extremes of fetish in a fairly harmless way. Nothing in artwork shocks me because a) I've probably seen worse in hentai art and b) it isn't real in any way. Fantasy is hotter than reality and harmless in my opinion. As for actual sexual activity, it's not for me. I draw and talk dirty porn, but IRL I can be shy and prudish!
What is/are your fursona(s)?
I have a few fursona's!
Loui/Lulu: A deep grey/white cat dog hybrid. Is just me really. I kinda stole her design from the fantastic doodlings of
Muzz after falling in love with it, and it does look a bit like me IRL. My only female fursona so far.Oreo:Male, black & white border collie. First fursona I designed for myself, not as a true expression of part of myself but more for a fursuit design which he became. I've drawn him and made the fursuit to look rather sly in the angle of his eyes although in other artwork he has been portrayed as rather playful. He hasn't really been developed much as a stand alone character beyond a fursuit design.
Ayari: Male, African wild dog. Also designed primarily as a fursuit design, he is chilled, with a rough and ready personality and witty sense of humour.
Pepper: Male, femboy, Neon green, black & white goat. The new kid on the block, also created first as a fursuit design, but I've become so much more involved with expressing this character artistically since I started drawing again recently. He seems to be the furry embodiment of my favorite yaoi boy type - as such he has emerged as a rather plump, pretty -uke type (submissive) with that mock-innocence in sexual situations that we dirty fangirls so love. Some trepidation in how the eventual fursuit will be received in a convention situation given the amount of porn he has featured in :x
Do you have any fetishes that pertain to the fandom?
Light bondage, and some Master/slave play I find erotic in most media. I love gay art although that is out of reach for me IRL since I am teh female and a breeder :P Which explains why I draw it so much as an outlet for my frustration heh.
If you could magically morph into your fursona would you?
It would be easier than getting in and out of fursuit!!
Do you believe you have a spirit animal?
Nah, I don't have a spiritual side at all. Apart from the type you buy at the bar.
What other fanbases/groups are you a part of?
Hopeless anime fan and as a result, a yaoi fangirl. People can slang me all they want. It's hot :P
How many of your friends are furry?
I have a fair few now, very good friends as well <3 But I still have a larger percentage of friends from the anime fandom at the moment. Probably because I've been in it longer, about eight years compared to two in the furry fandom.
How many pets do you own, if any?
Two corn snakes, Hebi (female, about 10 years old, adopted, Motley orange/sunburst) and Orochi (probably male, 12 weeks old, hatchling, Anerythristic grey)
Aside from furry what other interests do you have?
Drawing, anime, writing, cosplay and getting horribly drunk :P
Do you attend any cons? If no, would you attend any cons? If yes, which cons have you been to?
RBW 2008, Confuzzled 2009, Eurofurence 2009.
Do you go to local meetups(bowling, public outings...etc)?
As in furmeets?
The Manchester mini-meets capture a fairly good, chilled bunch. I go when I'm not working furiously to complete a fursuit project.
Have you ever attended a furry party? If no, would you attend one?
If that's a sexual thing, no. I have been out drinking or to a house get-together with other furs just for movies, chat or drawing together. I wouldn't attend any other kind of 'party'.
Have you ever met up with a fur you talked to online?
Yep, at meets. Never on a one-to-one basis.
What furry websites do you attend?
FurAffinity
What non furry websites do you frequent?
4Chan, Facebook, Efukt... and random stuff I guess
Has the fandom done anything for you that you're thankful for? Has it taught you anything or brought you anything you treasure greatly?
I've met some good friends but it didn't really really bring anything to me that I was lacking before. I just enjoy it for fun and creativity.
