The highs and lows of roller coaster (mal)function some weeks. Update:

I am still continuing my projects, the comic works and my visual novel, there is more coding issues than expected for the novel which are being ironed out, but the process of writing and then drawing said writings and composing music tracks for the work, is why creative aspirations are nothing to underestimate. If you are worried about them, please know they are still in progress. Also, I will be working on the website more for Anocris as well concerning information and characters involved so far. I wish I could draw more while knowing I wasn't going to be interrupted and lose my focus and drive. Even if my job is tiring, know that neither you nor my art works are forgotten, they are being held closely and processed through the fatigue of living.

Besides life circumstances trying drag me into the pit of madness (my own pit is sufficient), I am often finding myself alone but in the same space as other individuals of the same thinking. Moments of peace are a rare find, and existence simply becomes all the more stellar.

How have you all been doing? Best regards, and more from me soon, I seek inspiration daily.

Still working on my visual novel for Anocris. Most of the work left is stringing together a lot of dialogue without it sounding campy- but it's still primarily a porn game.
Hoping to have some of the story available to play by the beginning of the year- if not around the holidays- this all depending on how hours at work go, and if nothing else in the house breaks.

Currently dealing with a negative- almost insurmountable sum of money (bills to pay) to not only fix the foundation of the house, but the AC unit went kaput last summer, and the roof is at the end of it's life. It's no wonder the seller was so eager to get rid of the place, but also just my luck. Lots of folks with this type of luck just never get a break, as one of the only individuals at work I enjoy being around has the same type of karma. All this and I still have a car loan to worry over, hahaha. Overwhelmed, underwhelmed- either way it's practically unending...

Man, I'm so fatigued all the time, and all I want is the energy to draw and finish my novel....

Hope you all have been doing better, and take care of yourselves

::::

My schedule continues to be the journal title, however, I am assuring everyone that my art and current projects will not cease unless I do; even during this nonconsensual miniscule upload ratio I am stuck in, one or two artworks a month is driving me a little bonkers since drawing is an important outlet for me.

Wishing you all better days, and please look forward to the inevitable eventuality of more stuff!

::::

It's been tumultuous few months for me- this is the worst time of year for some folks and I am a part of this group. An important relative passed away as well to top that off too.

Still going and going though, and hoping you all are enjoying the festive season in your own ways. Art ideas are brewing, but stalled. I'll be here again soon

::::::::

Hello, dear folks. My car finally kicked the bucket as it were, and I saved enough coinage to get a newer one at last. That's the good news.
The bad news would be that I am going to work as many extra hours that I can, since I want to pay off this new car quickly so interest will not have me in a chokehold.
Artwork may be even more greatly delayed, including my visual novel work, but please rest assured that I will surely create more artworks for you all again as immediately as I ever can.

I hope you will look forward to more, and thank you for being patient with me!

Take care, stay safe.

Popping on to wish you all a happy holidays this year so I don't miss the chance to.

Even if "relatives" attending are trash, may you still find a segment of joy between the ashes of their sordid existences, and stay true to your self.

::::

::::::::

I know I don't much say it...but thank you for being here, despite my afflictions and art delays, all of you are appreciated- more than you might think.

I keep having runs of bad luck lately! Getting sick for several weeks, losing out on hours at work, getting overtime at work, motorcycle breakdown, underwhelming amounts of free time to fix things....

Good news is I have a college classes started for game development so I can have my certified (diploma) proof that I can make games. 3 years, friends, such is the duration of the term to graduation.

Thank you all for your patience as this rather large hurdle in life is progressed over, and I will try to provide more artistic juices to you all soon.
Your support for my artwork is as encouraging as ever.

Take care always.

I am looking for more monster persons to get inspiration from- I was reviewing things I'd added to favorites and  patto showed up in my collection with awesome looking wolf designs again.
Granted werewolves aren't monsters, but you surely get the picture. Wanting to get better at drawing paws and claws like that, and am quite hoping that you all might have some suggestions for me to dive into. Some art styles are as singular as fingerprints after all and I want to know more of what you all like too.

Thanks for checking out my journal!

Let me tell you at least, that I have come quite far in learning how to build a better visual novel. BUT what is slowing my progress again is how I want to actually initialize the gameplay.

-Do I want it to be a visual novel?
OR
-Do I want it to be an RPG sort of game?

-Do I want cell shading art style? It may be less time consuming.

I keep getting torn between the two, because there are so many great tools to making stories come to life, and being picky later in the process is just going to slow progress even further.

What would you all prefer? Considering what I have done can be transferred to a different platform, it's just a matter of implementing it in the different style if I did... let me know what you'd think, and what you'd like to see considering my shadow creatures and so forth! Thank you for your time!

I've moved into a place that I can start to call home. It took quite some time, but the fortune was in my favor in the sense that the fight to purchase a house didn't last until the end of the year.
This has been a quick update to let you all know I am still swinging. I do apologize for the delays in responses and art due to this hullabaloo, and may creativity once again commence!

Now I hope to improve upon my visual novel for my ANOCRIS series. There are so many ideas, for it, making it into a solid story that works with branching choices has been quite fun.
Certainly hope you all are looking forward to it, and that you will enjoy my new arts that will be on the way soon!

I truly regret my inability to draw amidst current circumstances- I am working on purchasing a home, and working many, many extra days to get out of the apartment where I am currently dwelling.

Good news is there is many home prospects available, but now it'll take time to process everything of course too- I'll keep you good folks in the loop as soon as possible, and I WILL be returning to create more delicious art pieces as soon as this is taken care of. I apologize for the neglect on content, but thank you , as always, for your patience!

Take care for now!

For those of you who had it, someone logged in to my account on telegram and got my phone number banned.
Afraid I am not motivated to make another since clearly their security is flawed, so if you want my contact on discord, you can find me there!

::::::::

Here again with another frustrated installment. Depression came back in full force, or should I say everything came to a head-- I am going to talk to my managers soon and try to get some time off. I apologize, again, still for the lack of art, but I can't draw when my head isn't together. Regardless, I will try to bring fresh work to you soon, and most certainly more on my visual novel.

In the mean time, fare well again for now, and take care.

Greetings everyone! I am still alive, just working quite a bit on reality job unfortunately.

In the meantime I am also investing a lot of time in background creations for my comic so hopefully I can create more dynamic scenes for you to enjoy in the visual novel.

I haven't forgotten about the requests still pending for those of you on the list, and thank you again for your patience.

Please look forward to my new works! Thanks for checking up on me.

::::::::

::::::::

Art may be a little lacking this month, as I am focusing not only on the event requests, but the last few necessities to bring the ANOCRIS - And Thy Spirit demo into availability.I want to bring out something that is polished enough to build on after all. Backgrounds are killer though, to be absolutely honest.
Don't be too surprised if this workload carries over into next month as well!

I appreciate your patience, and thank you for sticking around.

Greetings everyone! I have created a website, still under construction in some ways, however if you'd like to access it, the link is as follows:

Loxchi now has a website.

There will be further organization of the site, and likely a form page for commissions as an option there so contacting me outside of FurAffinity will be possible.

Additionally, I'm going to be busy until after the new year- fresh art may arrive if I get the opportunity, but can't guarantee! My intention is to squeeze this holiday pay money for all it is worth.

In the meantime, take care everyone, Merry Christmas, and Happy New Year!

::::

::::::::

I am still taking a bit longer of a break. Got to love retail season- I mean Christmas season! ALAS.
Please expect art to resume soon, and my comic and other works will continue as well.

::::::::

::::::::

I have not updated much this month (so far). I am taking a little bit of a break. I will be back soon.

As the holidays come and go, so do my numerous mental issues, like so many folk.

On the other hand, I hope you'll stick around, and that you'll look forward to more art, on my visual novel, my comic, and generally my flavor of delights brought to life.

Fare thee well (Until later that is)

::::::::

I want to work on some free sketch/shaded art for my watchers.

The arts will be drawn in one of my styles such as (NSFW):
examples
resembling
these

I won't say that 'I can draw them all' to requests, due to my recently overflowing schedule at the workplace, but if you have an inquiry, I'll review them below.
The list will be updated as inspiration strikes.

[ Edit 8/21/20, I am not accepting more requests right now. Thank you ]

Slight Rules:
!!!! You do not have to be watching me to participate, but watchers will be prioritized. If you see this journal while this event is still running, then feel free to ask. !!!!

➲ Let me know if you want an NSFW theme incorporated into your request (see my entire gallery for examples), or involvement with any of my characters. Otherwise I will draw the artworks as SFW.
➲ Please outline a preferred theme if you have it for your request.
➲ The artworks made will be exercised with my artistic freedom, but I will credit each of you appropriately.
➲ Be aware, I much prefer to draw male-bodied characters.
➲ You're welcome to note me a request if you prefer, but I will still add you to my list here.
➲ Please type 'Yes I have read the rules' in your request. If you are not a watcher I will be taking this rule very seriously.

Thank you in advance for your politeness and respect to myself and others during this event.
I will cancel my work on your request if I accept it and you are uncivilized.

Without further ado, show me your wares.

Artworks requests list in no specific completion order, because my inspiration does not file itself in order:

[  ake~ ] Completed
[  twistedsnakes ] Completed
[  dracoilmkt ] Completed
[  arborath ] Completed
[  roureem ] Completed
[  LuxAnimas ] Completed
[  kilo_cucumber ] https://www.furaffinity.net/journal...../#cid:57434208

:::::::: Thank you for your interest, and for the encouragement to continue despite the unfavorable odds ::::::::

Edit 8/21/20, I am not accepting more requests right now. Thank you.

For those on the request list, thank you for your patience, I am working 7 days a week until October with very limited free time.


::::::::

I want to do a free art event for you all to enjoy. and want to offer simple sketches to you all in tune with
examples
resembling
these
art styles, because I just don't want my own concoctions to develop an unfeeling staleness.

You can also expect the art to show up in the monthly Gumroad compilation for July, under the descriptor umbrella indicated in every monthly compilation as well. That is: bigger images, smaller watermark.

! Accepted freebie entries will be limited, likely to 10 or so, and I will determine selections later on. The amount of art I must wager creating is a delicate balance since my depression keeps spiking and rendering my brain cells inert. But you don't actually see this since it has been struck through right?

I do hope this interests you all, and thank you for being a part of it. 6 watchers to go. Numbers represent people, thank you for being here.

::::::::

P.S. I have also included a twitter thread to keep from being too restrictive in including my followers. I don't want to forget about this so if I hit 250 and you see it first, you're welcome to let me know.
You're welcome to share this journal if you'd like. If people stay afterwards, they stay, if not, it is what it is.
