Tough Life Decisions, Laptops and more.
Posted 8 years ago*Sighs heavily* Okay, where to begin. This one is a doozy so, if you don't wanna read sob story personal life shit, read paragraph one, and then the last one too. Skip all the rest.
I guess ill start on the topic of my laptop, because that's the shortest bit. Last night my laptop suddenly stopped working properly. The keyboard was no longer functioning, and then when it was rebooted it didn't wanna reboot. Said something was wrong with some strtrail file or something?? Unsure. Well, I had it doing a chkdsk which was taking eons last night so I unplugged it, sat it on the kitchen table and went back to playing games with my family. Just before midnight I thought "OH SHIT ITS UNPLUGGED" and ran over to snag it, it had already died. I took it back to the charger and low and behold, it booted up. Very slowly, but it got on and everything worked. I left it on and plugged in all night and now today I will be pulling ALL my files off the damn thing and putting them on an external drive just so I'm sure I wont lose any files if it happens to do the shit again. I don't know whats wrong, but fingers crossed it doesn't happen again, I almost lost all my commission files last night. So... Yeah. That's that. Now, if you don't care about my personal life, feel free to skip down to the last paragraph.
So.... As some of you know, and many of you don't. I have been living for the last few years in Sweden. And I hate it. I really do. I am unhappy, I am miserable, I have no job, no ability to get a job, no friends, no life outside of becoming a vegetable at my computer and doing nothing. Its been horrible. I have been depressed. I want nothing more than to go home and live my life comfortably and happily in my home country where I feel like I belong. *sigh*
Now, I haven't been telling my partner this. Because we have a child and obviously it makes things horrendously complicated. Well, last night I told him. Both of us had been drinking a fair bit and he said, very calmly that he needed me to get back home, and if in a month I still wanted to come home, he would pay a ticket. MIND YOU none of this is because I don't love him. Regardless of how... not great he has been to me sometimes I do love him. I just hate this country and he will not move with me.
So, that was that and we moved on with the night. Today I tried to approach him about talking about what our plans with the child were. And that we should come up with an agreement and sign it in case things happen that way, neither of us can try to be shit bags and either a) run off with the kid or b) try to keep the kid form the other parent. He didn't like that. This time, he was sober and he immediately started to cry, had a panic attack and when I tried to go console him, he told me to get off of him and leave him alone.
So, things have been rough. I am in ... I dunno. Not a good place I guess. I have been crying on and off. This isn't an easy decision by any means. I love him, I really do but i know that staying in Sweden will kill me. I can't continue living in a place where I feel like the ridiculed black sheep any more. It hurts. I rarely see the outside world and my apartment ended up looking like a trash heap. I didn't clean, I barely cooked and only because I was asked to. I either didn't sleep at all or I slept 14+ hours at a time and was constantly exhausted.
As far as what is going to happen from here.... I don't know. Today is my last full day in America. Tomorrow, I leave back for Sweden and then, we will see what happens from there. Today I have a lot of packing to do. Scouring the house and looking for things we don't want to leave behind. There is stuff absolutely everywhere. Not to mention, trying to fit everything we got into our suitcases and such, that will be fun. I also need to run into town and snag a travel adapter so that I can use my laptop in Sweden. I still have my desktop there but ill likely be on my laptop a good deal and shut up in my room for a while as I try to cope with all of this. We will arrive home Wednesday evening so, Thursday or Friday I will return to working on commissions properly, and I apologize for the delay. I will try to nail stuff out as fast and efficiently as I can. From there, I will take more commissions and try to work on saving up money for the possibility that I end up coming home. If I decide to come home, I don't want him to have to pay for everything, we are in a fair bit of debt with his family so I would rather him not have to pay for me. I will be looking to purchase a plane ticket and having some living money before I will be able to find a job in America. That is my plan anyway. That is all I know for now. This is all going to be very hard on me and I hope you can all be patient with me during this period, as I will not be overly..excitable and talkative I suppose.
Much love and good vibes to you all.

*cries* Now I just cant draw.
Posted 8 years agoWelp. Just today when I decide that WOOOOHOOO I have lots of time to draw....
Nope. Tablet is out of commission. Why? I don't fuckin' know. I'm praying to god its just a pen problem. I try to use it and its like its constantly clicking so instead of drawing the lines i want, it is dragging lines all over my work when i try to use it. Its pretty much literally impossible to use right now... GREAT! :'(
I tried reinstalling all the software from the CD and updated drivers from wacom. Also plugged it into another computer its never been used on and tried to do that as well. But the problem persisted. This only happens with the pen, not the eraser. Eraser works as intended. Touch functions for zooming and such work properly as well. So, I am convinced its the pen and just shelled out the $60 for a new one. Money I REALLY didn't have to spend but, I need to get a new pen to get these commissions done. Used my moms Amazon Prime so itl'l be here Saturday. *heavy sigh* Sorry guys..

So. Many. Updates. (Paypal, WIPs, Vacation, Etc)
Posted 8 years agoOkay... JESUS where do I begin?
Well as you may have noticed I have been very much... not active. At all. *grumble grumble* So here is whats been happening the last month or so.
So around a month ago I started my holiday vacation. This involved coming to my parents house for a little over a month which I have been STOKED about. Well, I thought I'd have a little more time than I really did to be honest and things have been way tighter than imagined. Even though my BROTHERS live here and I'm just visiting, guess who ends up doing all of the chores? Yeaaaap. And if I don't before I touch my computer I get my ass chewed out. Damnit dad I'm twenty-fucking-two and I don't live here! I have no problem cleaning up after myself but having to vacuum the house, wash everyone elses dishes, fold their blankets they leave everywhere etc is getting old.
Plus my dad is a fucking nut-case and has to constantly come to me with his conspiracy theories, political bullshit or trying to convince me the earth is flat. *rubs temples and groans* So even when I start working I'm often interrupted and have to sit and listen to his bullshit. And let me tell you that man will ramble FOR-EV-ER.
I deeply apologize to all those waiting on me, shit has been insane. I am exhausted and I still don't have all my presents wrapped and under the tree *panic ensues*.
________________________________
Now, on top of all this I have been having one HELL OF A FUCKING TIME with Paypal.
So, over the life of my account I had made, what was it 1800 Euros? So they put a limitation on my account and wanted to see proof of Identity and address. No biggie! I took pictures (had no scanner) of my ID and the only document I had that could prove my address from a reliable source. (I get no bills, bank statements, etc in my name) Now, I sent them in and then waited like two weeks. No response. So I message them and ask what was going on. They said my pictures weren't good enough and needed to be fixed because the one of my ID was a little blurry and the one of my address proof wasn't the FULL page so they couldnt accept it. Okay well THANKS FOR TELLING ME THAT NOW! Ugh, so I had just gotten a scanner from the lovely
goodbody Thank the lord. So I scanned my documents and sent them in. They thanked me, said everything looked good and that I would be reviewed in 24-72 hours. Then they told me that I needed to update my paypal address t match the document because it was missing my apartment number. Now, because it was missing the apartment number I must have been scamming people so they escalated my limitations and now I'm no longer able to send money anywhere! So I update it and let them know and then I wait... Then I get a message saying my proof of address wasn't good enough. AFTER I was told it was! Ugh. So I ask why. They tell me that it doesn't have a date stamp on it and therefore can't be proven specifically when it was sent.....
SO LISTEN TO THIS SHIT OK
The dead center of the damn page, in big ol letters, the page says "This decision was made on August 4th 2017". This was a TAX document from the Swedish Tax Agency. You REALLY can't get much more official than that dude. Now OBVIOUSLY if the decision was made August 2017.. this means the paper CANT be any older than that. And it needed to be dated within 12 months. ITS CLEARLY VALID. But no. Not ok. *Tears hair out*
SOOOOO I ask them what I'm supposed to do, as I don't receive mail that would prove this. Well they tell me to go online and download my personbevis which is basically my proof of existence with the government. Now at this point I've been running around with them for like a month so THANKS FOR TELLING ME THIS NOW ASSHOLE. Anyway, I download the document and then... BOOM I cant upload it. So I email it to them and say the uploader isn't working. Well guess what, they wont take a document unless i upload it! GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR Finally got it to work the next day.
Then I got am email.... SAYING MY PROOF OF ADDRESS WASN'T GOOD ENOUGH.
... WHAT!?!?!? This is literally the SPECIFIC document you just asked me for!!!!
Yeah well I emailed them very angrily and they accepted it. Finally. So then I wait and I wait and finally they remove the holds from my account and I am in the clear. Dear gods it had been well over a month since that had started. HALLELUJAH Thank the lord, I can use my money. Dennis bought a board game, and spotify took the rest. Now I'm broke. I think "Hey Im going Xmas shopping today, lets make a few extra bucks so I can give my son a few presents"
So I put up a stream for chibis. First person sends funds....
BOOM PAYPAL LOCKED AGAIN!
*Screeches*
WHY!?!??!
SO I send in a rather angry email asking wtf was going on and why I could again not send funds. They say its "usually caused by you changing information on your account too soon after a limitation was lifted" I have literally changed NOTHING about my account. And I don'wt know what I need to do to make it stop doing this shit. But they said they are sending it to the limitation review, which will take about 72 hours. And ofc its Xmas so they are working less business hours right now. So now I just sit and wait and twiddle my thumbs until someone gets off their ass and fixes my shit.
Fuck you Paypal. Fuck you.
_________________________
UGH. Now, as far as WIPs go, please message me if you want one. I have been trying to do a little bit of things for everyone lately to at least get some progress. I am so very sorry for the delays. Thanks for sticking with me!
I will be available via notes and discord a bit more these net few days, I hope? Tomorrow hopefully all goes well with Xmas and we have no drama poppin' up.
Don't be afraid to message me if you need ANYTHING!!
Much love

My Weekend + UPDATES!
Posted 8 years agoI just watched
goodbody Drive away from my apartment. That was a damn hard goodbye, yes I am crying. I don't have any real good friends around here and god damnit it sucks when one comes to visit and you have to say goodbye. This weekend was full of laughing, bullshittin', walking around, shopping, just generally hanging out. He fixed my computer, I made him food. He fixed my Wifi while I made cookies. He played handyman for me a bit today, yesterday we just hung out and played board games. Over all, the weekend was amazing. It felt SO good to have a friend around that I could just sit and talk to. Someone who saw it from MY point of view when things we're going to shit around here. And someone that sat in at my house and could see the kind of shit I have to deal with. And now, he is on his way back up to his home, 6 hours away. I am gonna miss the FUCK out of you, buddy.
But, even though this is a hard goodbye and I hate that he had to go, I damn well needed this weekend. I have been in the worst slump lately and been almost unable to get anything done, regardless of how much I tried. Finally, FINALLY I had a good night sleep for the first time in a long time. I felt good enough to cook food and make cookies. I genuinely SMILED this weekend and laughed and just... enjoyed life. And god damnit, I haven't done that in a long time. For a while I could just forget all the bullshit I have going on here at home. And had someone to help me with things like changing lightbulbs and smoke detectors that needed to get done.
I can't begin to tell you how much this weekend meant to me, Frey. Thank you.
___________________________________________________________________________
UPDATES:
So, Updates on commissions:
My plan is to hopefully have EVERYTHING done this week before I go to the states. So, hopefully with this new found burst of energy I can work on getting everything done and what not. If you want a personalized talk about your commission you can find me on telegram or Discord. Also all the information on your commissions can be found on my Trello. I apologize for the delay in things these last few weeks and hopefully I can start getting things done. Thanks for sticking by me, guys.

Lights coming on soon!
Posted 8 years ago40 minutes until I start accepting trick or treaters! Will do a few via journal and the rest in stream. BE READY!
Halloween, Free stuff!?
Posted 8 years agoRandom thought
felisrandomis had for Halloween on FA. --This whole journal is copy pasted from theirs!!
Basically, come the 31st, a lot of us older ladies/gents/others don't really go out for the holiday @.@
So why not do something fun online?
Concept:
On the 30th of October, post a journal that's called LIGHTS ON
This shows that your "porch light" is on and you're accepting Trick or Treaters.
People can come to your journal and comment "Trick or Treat!" or whatever other code word you'd like to use.
At which point, the creator of the journal can offer up small sketches or the like as treats for who comments.
And, as to not overwhelm people, you can set a limit as to how many trick or treaters you'll take.
Everyone runs out of candy eventually! Once you hit your limit you can change your journal to Lights off or closed, etc.
I feel this could be a chance for some people to get some art and have fun while doing it as well~
Also, please don't be greedy! Be courteous to your other Trick or Treaters!
Tell me what y'all think! If you like this idea, please spread it around by copy pasting this journal! Hopefully we can get a fair amount of people interested in this :D
If you'd like to join, please put your FA username here!

My apologies, Delays and Plans
Posted 8 years ago Hello everyone!
I apologies greatly for any delays you have been experiencing with getting art from me. I have had some domestic problems arise that prevented me from being able to work, on top of medical issues and the loss of a pet. Currently as I write this I am also hunched over, unable to properly work because I've bust yet another ovarian cyst (Which is also making it incredibly hard to deal with my 2 year old.). My neck and back have been really out of whack and I haven't been feeling up to much at all.
This being said, I am trying to work through things the best I can. I have put WIPs on my Trello and I am trying to get caught up. I finished 3 small commissions yesterday, so that is a win for me!
If you would like more information on your commission please do not hesitate to hit me up and ask.
Streaming
________________________________
Streaming has been rather hard for me as of late. I am sorry for this and i know some of you would like to see your commissions done but, I have to get them done regardless of whether or not I am able to stream.
Plans for November
_________________________________________
Now, my plans! I did in fact reach my laptop goal, and purchased a laptop :) Woo! My next goal, once I crunch through my queue will to be able to take a few more commissions so I can buy Thanksgiving Dinner this year. (Yay my paypal finally seems to be cooperating with my bank! Albeit, slowly.) I will not be here for Xmas so I would like to spend Thanksgiving here with a nice feast and get together before I leave. Even though some things come MUCH more costly here than the states (Since its not exactly a holiday in Sweden.). So that is my next goal.
Plans over Vacation
_________________________
So! Vacation. First thing about Vacation is I will not be taking many, IF any NSFW commissions. I will be living with my parents and younger brothers for a time, and then with my grandparents. I'd rather them not watch me draw porn. BUT i will for sure have some cute Christmas stuff open. (Sneak peek coming soon!)Volume of commissions will me drastically reduced though so if you want something them, be ready to snag it.
Trello

Here is my Trello! I am trying to keep it updated. Let me know if I have forgotten something!

Goals, Money Needed, Price Changes, and more
Posted 8 years agoHey guys! This journal is gonna be a bit of a doozy with information, so bear with me!
First starting off I will let you all know that I will soon have a full price chart for commissions! Everything from sketches headshots to full body shaded lineart. Yay! This does mean, though, that my prices will be increasing a bit. I know it sucks but I promise I will be keeping everything affordable so don't fret!
ALSO! As inspired by a good friend of mine, all my lovely repeat customers will get a minimum 10% off their orders, for life! In some cases, discounts may rise up to as much as 20%! :)
_______________________________________________________
Second thing on the docket... *clears throat*
GUYS OMG HOLY SHIT YAAAAY I JUST GOT MY PLANE TICKETS TO SEE MY FAMILY! WAHOOOOOOOOOOO
Had to get that out of my system. Anyway on November 27th I will be leaving Sweden to go visit my family. I have not seen them in over two years and I cannot express how insanely excited I am that its finally a reality! I will be gone over a month, from November 27th, to January 3rd. A nice long trip, I will get to go to my cousins wedding, which is exciting, and it will be my sons first Christmas in the states with family! All so exciting!
That being said......
This means I will have borderline no computer access for over a month. Which sucks, like, really bad. I won't be able to do my art (I have problems with traditional media hurting my hands) and my contact with a lot of people will be cut down immensely. Now, of course I don't want to spend all day every day on a computer in the states, otherwise, why go? But I really want a laptop I can use while I am in the states so I can have something to do in my downtime when we otherwise don't have anything to do.
It will also be great for the 14 hour flights there and home.. which I will be travelling... with my three year old who I am about 85% sure has ADHD. He cant sit still unless something is REALLY capturing his attention. These flights were really hard on him at 7 months when he was just crawling. And now hes a boisterous, energetic three year old who will not want to sit still, period. We do not currently own anything that he could keep himself occupied with in that sense. No tablet, laptop, or even smart phone that might keep him calm and let me tell you this is going to be one hell of a 14 hour flight, I can tell already.
______________________________________________________________
SO! all that jabber aside... MY GOAL!
I want to purchase a laptop before I leave my home. Ideally purchased around November 13th (which is actually my sons birthday!) so it has two weeks to arrive before we leave.
Like i said without this we will be sitting on a pretty much technology free flight between home and the states which will not keep my hyperactive 3 year old entertained in the least. Without it I will also have no computer access for over a month and won't be able to do art or take care of bills and will have to give family access to our money to do it for us.
My goal? $650. Will it buy me the best laptop? Nope! But it will give me something I can use. It will suffice. Of course IF i can obtain more by then, that would be a dream come true, but as it is, getting to $650 in about 46 days is not going to be easy. (Ive got $114 of it currently) I need to make about $12/day to make this happen. Which, it hard for me to scrape by usually. SO I will be doing as much as I can this month and I want to know what YOU want to see guys!!
Palette adopts? (I provide the creature, you give me a palette and I create you an adopt.)
Regular adopts?
Egg adopts? (Buy the mystery egg to see whats inside!)
Auction YCHs (Hand drawn pose done auction style)
Flat Price YCHs (Hand drawn poses that will be flat price with usually one slot, occasionally 2 or 3)
Regular commissions
Etc
What would you be interested in buying!? Let me know guys, I am so determined to do this!
Also on a side note: I have $10 sketch busts (with buy one get one 50% off!!) up while i stream all month!
First starting off I will let you all know that I will soon have a full price chart for commissions! Everything from sketches headshots to full body shaded lineart. Yay! This does mean, though, that my prices will be increasing a bit. I know it sucks but I promise I will be keeping everything affordable so don't fret!
ALSO! As inspired by a good friend of mine, all my lovely repeat customers will get a minimum 10% off their orders, for life! In some cases, discounts may rise up to as much as 20%! :)
_______________________________________________________
Second thing on the docket... *clears throat*
GUYS OMG HOLY SHIT YAAAAY I JUST GOT MY PLANE TICKETS TO SEE MY FAMILY! WAHOOOOOOOOOOO
Had to get that out of my system. Anyway on November 27th I will be leaving Sweden to go visit my family. I have not seen them in over two years and I cannot express how insanely excited I am that its finally a reality! I will be gone over a month, from November 27th, to January 3rd. A nice long trip, I will get to go to my cousins wedding, which is exciting, and it will be my sons first Christmas in the states with family! All so exciting!
That being said......
This means I will have borderline no computer access for over a month. Which sucks, like, really bad. I won't be able to do my art (I have problems with traditional media hurting my hands) and my contact with a lot of people will be cut down immensely. Now, of course I don't want to spend all day every day on a computer in the states, otherwise, why go? But I really want a laptop I can use while I am in the states so I can have something to do in my downtime when we otherwise don't have anything to do.
It will also be great for the 14 hour flights there and home.. which I will be travelling... with my three year old who I am about 85% sure has ADHD. He cant sit still unless something is REALLY capturing his attention. These flights were really hard on him at 7 months when he was just crawling.

Tablet Troubles
Posted 8 years agoAaaaah lovely! My tablet has done gone out on me now. Or rather, the cable has. I hope its only the cable. I have a wireless kit buuut the battery was never installed and is thus, dead. So, I need a new cable, and pray to god only the cable is bunk and not the port. *sigh* Anyway, can't work on commissions for the next day or so. Will go in search of a cable tomorrow. Worst case scenario I get one in a few days after I order it online. :S
Poo. I was in such a productive mood.
Here's to praying its just a poopy cable!!

TOS CHANGES!! IMPORTANT
Posted 8 years agoThis new information is being put into my TOS! Keep yourself updated. :3
(First one was added a bit ago but will be posted here as well)
1) YOU MUST BE OVER THE AGE OF 18 TO COMMISSION ME FOR MATURE WORKS!! (or anything with specific fetishes.)
Look guys I REALLY don't want to have to make it so I have to check everyone's age, and I don't want to restrict my art to 18+. But I know some kids have been trying to, or even successfully, tricked me into making them NSFW/Mature art and that's not okay.
And now, since I've already had to tell some kids this same thing recently...If you are under 18 you are a child. I don't care how grown up you think you are, I don't care if you are sexually active and fuckin' all the bitches. You are still a child, you are still under the age of 18, and you should not be buying mature works. And in many places its actually illegal for me to sell you mature things at your age. Don't get me in trouble because you want to think your grown, come on kiddos.
Being called a "kid" is not an insult either. If you are under 18, that is what you are. Everyone had 17 years of being a kid. Everyone, I am not trying to call you mean names. You are a kid.
2) There will now be a surcharge for purchasing arts and using SL Screenshots and similar as references.
Look guys, I am sorry but SL screenshots are not easy for me to use. And especially when you say things like "I want this character, BUT... This this and this need changed" I get this may be the only thing you have at current. But even the most inexperienced people can scribble an ugly color edit on a free base to illustrate markings. My two year old could do that.
I will still accept them as refs, but at an extra cost. Lets be real guys my art is cheap cheap cheap. I already am skimping myself on these prices, and even more so when I have to fight tooth and nail to get stuff right with your SL screenies as refs.
IF YOU NEED SOMETHING DONE BEFORE A CERTAIN DAY, YOU NEED TO TELL ME WHEN YOU ORDER!!! Not later down the line
Refunds:
Under most circumstances, refunds will not be given. (Seriously, You probably only paid me $3 anyway.)
Refunds *will* be given to people for larger projects if necessary. Necessary circumstances include...
1) Me deciding I am no longer comfortable with completing the art for one reason or another.
2) Me deciding I cannot take on more commissions at the current moment.
3) You have waited over 1 month for a piece from me with no progress, no start and no WIPs given when you asked. (This will never happen by the way, but in some weird alternate reality...)
When given a refund, you will be given back what you paid, after paypal tax. So, if I only received $9.65 from you after tax on a $10 piece, that is what I will refund you.
Payment:
I will only be accepting payment through Paypal! And only in the form of USD! PLEASE ensure that you are sending USD when you are sending the money. It will say recipient recieves x. If that says SEK, change it! My account, being based out of Sweden, will try to change currency as SEK but that is not what I want.
Payment must be received before I will work on the commission!
PLEASE note in your payment what it is for! I just need your FA username and type of commission (i.e. headshot, full body, YCH)
Examples:
Lovelyg4m3r - YCH
Lovelyg4m3r - 2 character fullbody
Blacklist
I will not be having a black list of people I will not accept commissoins from. There are multiple reasons I may black list you...
1) You lying to me about your age in an attempt to get a NSFW or fetish commission from me while you are under age.
2) You filing a charge back against me. Seriously, I will give you a refund if it is necessary, I am a very reasonable person. But I will not refund just because you decide to change your mind when I am in the middle of your work. trying to yank a charge back off me and locking me out of using my paypal will get you immediately black listed for life.
3) Filing an artist beware against me. I will be more than happy to cooperate with you, work to get things resolved and make sure you are more than happy with your commission. After all, I am not happy if you aren't. I want you to love your purchase. There should never be a reason for you to do this. And if you believe there is. I would prefer you speak to me first.

That should be it I think :3 Thanks guys <3 As always, you're the best.

We got 200!
Posted 8 years agoWoo we hit 200 watchers guys! I KNOW in the whole scheme of FA that isn't much.. but it means a hell of a lot to me!!
That means two hundred individual people care enough about what I'm making to want to see when I post it in their submissions. Which is just.. Huge to me. You guys are seriously the best.
And all of this without having to pull the "free raffle for watchers only!" Kind of stuff. No one watched me to be able to enter a raffle and that makes it even better. My heart is swollen with joy. <3
It's because of your support I've been able to improve my art so drastically.
And yes there will be a raffle for this milestone! Just gotta let me sleep first! Saw this just as I laid in bed.
I love you guys

Updates, Disappearance, and 200 watcher Raffle
Posted 8 years agoOkay so first things first.
I apologize to all who were in my stream last night. I had a rough day yesterday and things just kept winding me up. Which does not usually happen. And at the end of it all I had a panic attack. I THOUGHT I was feeling better. I felt like I had calmed down and was listening to my music and working but then my heart just started pounding in my chest, I felt like I was choking, I couldn't hardly breathe. So I took off for the rest of the night and went to get it taken care of.
Things like this have never happened to me out of the blue like that before, so here's to hoping it doesn't happen again. I apologize for just dipping out on you guys.
________________________________________________________________
Updates:
After Kyle passed away, I turned my focus away from commissions to help raise money for his family so that they would be able to bury him back home. They were, in fact, able to get him home and lay him to rest last Sunday. I can only hope that his family is doing alright, I cannot imagine the pain his mother is in.
This being said, the adopts are nearly finished. I've been struggling to get the motivation the last few days, and I am sure it has to do with my depression but I am chugging through it and trying to get things done regardless. Anyone still waiting on an adopt will receive it within the next day or so.
______
Commissions are still closed until further notice.
______
My trello is updated! See here: https://trello.com/b/KxcbJ6qM/commissions
Everyone who is lined up for a commission should be written there. If I have somehow forgotten you, note me ASAP please.
______________________________________________________
What? A raffle?
YES! But, not yet. We are currently at 177 watchers guys! Getting super close to 200. And I wanted to let everyone know that I *DO* in fact have plans being made up for a raffle once we hit that number. So, sit tight and be ready! :)
______________________________________________________
Collaborations:
I will be looking for collab partners in the future to work on some stuff with! Things like YCHs that will take place of normal commissions for a while, as I want to lay off of that.
If you are interested, do not hesitate to note me.
______________________________________________________
And that should be all now, I think I can finally go use my tablet again so I will pop on out of here. Have a fantastic day.

The loss of a Life.
Posted 8 years agoJust received some saddening news. My brothers friend/my-neighbor-in-highshcool/was-almost-my-friend-for-a-bit-and-then-he-picked-on-me, has passed away. Turns out it was a fatal car accident. He hydroplaned off the road. Am I surprised? Not at all. The kid didn't know how to drive. He has totaled his truck at least once, I do believe twice before. And in perfect weather conditions. He was a young kid in the country with a truck and thought he was cool, tearing up and down roads. Even when he'd been in accidents before it seemed he never learned. Was he driving poorly when he died? Who knows. But with his track record I wouldn't be surprised.
Still though, its a sad day. And I feel very horrible for his mother. She is currently on vacation in another state and cannot get home at this moment. Meanwhile receiving news that her son is dead. I cannot imagine how much she is going through right now. I do like his mother, she is a great person and works as head of the post office in town. My heart goes out to her.
I will probably be doing some sort of commissions to help raise funds. They are trying to raise money for funeral expenses and for the ability to fly his body back to Missouri where they are originally from (and where his mother is now) to bury him.
The gofundme link is below. If you feel like you would like to donate something to their cause. Otherwise, you can PM me about a commission where the funds would go directly to them.
https://www.gofundme.com/kylesluder
Keep your kids safe guys and please, I know you might think its fun to show off and act like some big hot shot tearing up and down the roads. But its not funny, you aren't impressing anyone. Drive responsibly.
If your child is driving irresponsibly, don't just warn them. Take away their car until they learn. This kid was allowed to continue driving daily after his accidents, because his mom didn't wanna drive him places and he didn't want to take the bus to school. He never learned, and he paid the ultimate price.
Rest In Peace, Kyle.

My list of Reccomended Artists!
Posted 8 years agoAlrighty folks! This is where I am going to compile a list of artists I would personally recommend. None of these artists have paid me anything, I just had a wonderful time working with them and believe they deserve the little shout out.
1)
Kazuritsu
Kaz does some amazing work, and I love their art style. They are still growing and learning every day and are super pleasant to work with! Keep in mind, they don't do things on deadlines because they scrutinize over their work and try to do their best to put out the best work of their ability. Definitely worth it.
2)
SolarGem
I have gotten a few YCH pieces from Solar gem and they have been absolutely amazing to work with! They sent me multiple WIPs without me even asking for some cheap YCHs. Something they definitely did not have to do! If I saw a minor change I wished for they quickly fixed it up without a fuss. Great artist!
3)
Siberian-demon
Lockwood and I recently got a few headshots from him and they were spectacular! His style is very dark and awesome. If that is your thing, go check them out! They are super nice to work with and dealt with me even after I kept asking for more and more headshots >:3
4)
CelestialGoddess
This artist worked quick and excellently on a YCH I had bought. Had it done the same day and on stream. They were also very pleasant to talk to.
5)
Jelliedmammal04
This artist is part of the joint account
trashdragon ! When my character was a bid fuddled up in a YCH, she swooped in to quickly make changes and revamp the picture. It looks amazing! And they were VERY pleasant to work with!
Updates!
Posted 8 years agoHeyy guyyyys! So a little update for everyone!
Trello
I have powered through a lot to stuff this week, my Trello *should* be 100% updated. If I've missed you, note me ASAP!
https://trello.com/b/KxcbJ6qM/commissions
My Rut
Remember how I said I was in a rut? Yeah, I kicked that in the ass. Wahoo! We are rolling again bitches! <3
This last week, and this upcoming week
So yay! I took two days completely off of commissions this week because the dergn was off work! Usually I don't work Monday, because that's his day off. But he got a surprise extra day off today! Woohoo! Felt good. I got a lot nailed off this week, got almost the entire Twitch page commission I got a while back done in one day yesterday! And I am very happy with it. I have one piece left, and it will be done!
Tomorrow: I will be working, but *not* all day! I have an event I will be doing in ARK: Survival. I have been neglecting my player base a bit since I started accepting commissions.

Good news and bad news. [Update]
Posted 8 years agoSO this week has been crazy for my moods. BUT I am back on track. I nailed out tons of YCH commissions the other day. Thank you guys for that, you are awesome! I put those up to help fund my new phone. Why do I need a new phone? Wellll....
1) My phone is about, 7 years old now. Its seen a lot of wear.
2) Its begun to crash all the time. My system UI and lock screen just randomly crash and reboot. Yayyy...
3) My camera hasn't worked for a long time. I dunno why, but if i open the camera on any app or just the regular camera, it crashes the whole phone.
4) Its so old very few apps still support the android version I'm on. So it is borderline useless most days.
5) My volume keys fell off years ago. So to change volume with them or take a screenshot, i had to stick a bobby pin in there to push the button.
6) Oh yeah and now it wont take screenshots anymore! Just says they couldn't be captured. Stupid phone.
So I decided to look into a new phone. Now, I don't need anything expensive, by a long shot. Just something that works. So, I found the cheapest smartphone I could find for about $95. This smart phone runs on android 5.1. Mine runs on 2.3... yeah mine is old.
This phone has a quad core processor. Mine is a dual core.
This phone has 2x the internal space mine has.
So I have realized, if that is the cheapest phone I can get these days over here...well it is definitely time I switch.
With my UI and Lockscreen crashing every half hour, I can only assume its about to get worse and I should get another while mine still has a thread of life left. So that's that!
Now for the bad news...
Everything was going great... Until last night........
WHEN I LOST MY FUCKING TABLET PEN D: *table flips*
I have looked all over for it. I can't find the fucking thing. My work area is clean, so I know its not here. As to where it went? No idea. I've been tearing apart the house looking.
Dennis will wake soon and then he will help me search. If we don't find it.... I may have to order a new one... so things will be delayed further.
Finally out of my rut and then this happens, I could cry.
ITS BEEN LOCATEEEED!!!!
Yay! So, after searching the apartment for a few hours, it was located under one of the sofas. For some ODD reason I blame my toddler >.> Must have snagged it while I was cooking last night!
Edit: Oh yeah and I got one of those Trello things so I can keep better track of my commissions, and you can too!

If you've gotten a freebie from me....
Posted 8 years agoAnd I have NOT uploaded it yet, PLEASE send me a note. My freebie folder is huge and I'm not entirely sure all what has been handed out yet. And my folders are a mess D: Some things are in the wrong folders. I got very side tracked this last week/two weeks with my birthday planning, cleaning, shopping, baking etc. But I want to make sure you all get the things I have made for you! Please let me know if you are missing something! <3
