Just making a quick announcement to mention that I'm no longer active on The Website Formerly Known As Twitter
This link will take you to my Linktree which will show you the sites I'm actively posting on. This includes:

Bluesky for personal stuff and artworks
Bluesky specifically for streaming business and updates
Twitch where you can catch Late Night With Marky streams and watch VODs
YouTube which will have reposts of the Twitch content
Itaku as a backup art site

Also the Starco-X Space Station Discord Server is also still open and recently renovated!

OH SHIT!

10.000 FAVES!

Thank you all so much! I never thought I'd get this far 10 years ago :D :D :D

Commissions are CLOSED for now, and I'm working off a backlog. Thanks for applying, and stay tuned for when I open up again!

So the thing is... A friend of mine is in a bit of a pickle. They need financial help in order to get a legal issue out of the way with their family. I don't know how much it is going to cost in the end, but each tiny bit helps. That's why I've decided to open up 5 slots for $15 sketch commissions. It's best to discuss details over notes or over Discord, and whether I fulfill a commission is still at my discretion.

For an idea of the content I regularly draw, it is possibly best to look at my gallery. I try to maintain a lot of diversity in my portfolio, but there are certain themes I would rather not draw. These include: Scat, vomit, detailed gore, snuff, and characters as underage.

To anyone who is willing to buy a commission, I'm very grateful on behalf of my friend.

Slots:
- EMPTY
- EMPTY

Hope you all had a nice Yule day, despite whatever restrictions may be in place :3

R.I.P.
1935 - 2021

Some of you may have already noticed that my drawing juices have started flowing again B) In the advent of Sizecon 2021, I've been in a gigantic giantess-mood. I'll add a new category to reflect that.

Some things in my life have recently not been going too great. I feel this is a good way to deal with that... But don't expect miracles. I still appreciate all the support I get from you guys in these difficult times. Thank you for sticking around <3

It's been a while since I actually said anything here, so maybe now is a good time...

The truth is, I haven't been doing so great for the longest time. I wasn't able to get myself to draw anything. Mostly I think this has to do with my college education, and how it took a pretty bad turn and made me afraid I might have had to drop out at a few points. It wasn't giving me any gratification, it just kept dragging on, it made me feel dead inside...

So I was really glad I finally made it and graduated just last month. Only last week did I finally get to see my diploma, but... Then another challenge came onto my path. One that I had almost convinced myself I couldn't handle... And then I did.

In case you haven't heard about it, there is a worldwide network of schools, called 42, that teach people coding and all the work ethics associated with it, free of charge. You pay back with the skills you develop and how they benefit the global IT job market. Part of their selection process is a month-long bootcamp in Unix and C. 26 days, no weekends or breaks, 10 hours a day... If you're particularly talented.

Well, I bit the bullet and decided to take the bootcamp at Codam, and it just finished yesterday with a monumental 8 hour exam. At the start I thought I would be dead inside by now, as I was after slaving on my thesis for half a year...

But really I feel great. I feel like I just did something I wouldn't have dreamed of ever being able to. I feel that what I always thought was a simple hobby of mine has really become my passion, and I definitely would want to continue with it, whether I end up selected for Codam's main curriculum or not.

Now this definitely does not mean that I will stop drawing and making music and other things. I've always left most of the future up to chance. I do think that being a programmer is in the cards for me and perhaps, one day, I will create my own websites or video games. All the more useful that I can combine my old skills with new ones.

As for everyone here... I'm sorry that I've been this... Unavailable for so long. Those of you that I know from Discord and Telegram have been great supportive friends and I hope you will continue to be by my side, even if I'm not always very confident and/or bearable. Thank you... So much.

I guess I will take some time now to chill and maybe draw some more smut... :3

Is Crismun :3

Merry Crisis!

I've finally decided to delete my blog speedoalien.tumblr.com. It pains me to do so - I've been on Tumblr for years and I loved the environment - but it simply isn't safe for a smut artist to be there anymore. I very much disagree with the course the site has set for itself, even if it is supposedly outside the power of the staff... But I will still miss it. For the past few years the watermark in my art has always referred to my blog. I met some good friends on Tumblr, and I feel it has shaped me for the better.

I will be looking for alternatives to represent myself. If there is anyone with suggestions, please let me know.

RIP Tumblr, 2007 - 2018

If every year of my life was a letter... I'd be out of letters now. Well, in the Latin alphabet at least. In the Cyrillic alphabet I'm at Ш :3

I actually managed to hit 5000 faves :3 Sadly the 5000th fave came from someone who wasn't willing to receive shouts. I guess from here on it's on to 10000 :D

In my newest submission you might notice the new logo I made for 2018 :3 I thought it would look refreshing to see the watermark updated... And no, it's not suposed to be a fidget spinner. ._.

I noticed I've been getting a lot of new watchers lately and most seem to have found me through  evil-sprite 's recent spree of adoring Natalya. I just wanted to thank all of you for the love she's got, and I hope I can continue to satisfy you with my array of quirky perverts, including the big bug lady herself. You guys help me get back on the path of drawing lewds :)

If you have Discord and like to talk about cool things like games and smut, check out this~

Because he loves you all and he hopes you have a good time for the coming year :3

I'm 24 now! :D I'm getting too old...

But luckily I'm not dead yet... I need to find a good opportunity to get serious about art again but a busy college schedule and some old games have been getting in the way. Thanks for sticking around tho :)

Fuck The Birds, Fuck The Birds, Eat a dick while you're Fucking The Birds...

For those who don't know, FTB is a GIGANTIC mod pack for Minecraft. For those who do know, I've been interested in hosting a small FTB server with a couple of players so we can all mess around with machines and magic and computers in a wacky voxel-based world. If you're interested in joining my Discord server and helping me set things up, click this > https://discord.gg/6Aa2z

And uh... Feel free to leave a comment if you don't have Discord... Or Minecraft~ :3

I'm typing this journal from my new PC, and my very first custom build. Big thanks to  valliant for helping me out with the hardware a LOT. Hopefully now I can get back to art, games, and music like a pro~ B)

Okay, so... People often tell me that I'm stupid because I don't know the difference between situational irony and coincidence, so I was hoping you guys could help me out here.

Lets say that there is a popular but flawed website for furries, the name of which I will not mention.
This site, at some point, goes offline because of security leaks needing fixing.
The community gets scared and tries to convince everyone to move to a less popular but more stable site, the name of which I will also not mention.
And hours later, said stable website goes offline to fix security leaks, preventing people from going there.

Is that situational irony?

No, I'm not leaving FA.

Yes, you can have my other art sites. Most of the stuff that's here is also at my blog
http://speedoalien.tumblr.com/
And there is my Weasyl which I mainly use for my best works and char profiles
https://www.weasyl.com/~markettle
Finally if you want to read more about my characters, I do have an F-List
https://www.f-list.net/c/mark%20ettle

Thanks for stopping by. Good luck battling the haters, FA.

Enjoy some big soft soles :3

Sadly I don't have a picture yet. I've been busy today since I went on vacation, but maybe I'll get some doodles in at some point.

A friend of mine could really use some help paying his bills. If you wanna help him out and enjoy his work, please do commission him -> http://www.furaffinity.net/view/19512187/

So lately I've been doing a bunch of doodles that are a bit different from what I usually upload on FA. I've had people complain over my less conventional fetishes before, so right now I'm not sure what to do with my more risque art.

I could:
. Make a new Tumblr blog for my weird art, using the old one for my more normal work
. Make a new FA account, using this one as well
. Post them on Tumblr and FA as previews with Dropbox links to the real pictures
. Just continue posting them on FA and Tumblr, whether as scraps or in the gallery under a special tag

What do you people think?

...Of broken PCs.

Yeah, I'm actually using a PC that is, by now, 6 years old and I think it's about time for a new one... Especially since this one's voltage supplier just died, and it takes less than 5 minutes for it to shut off. If I can't fix it, I'm afraid my hiatus term will be extended a little bit more. Sorry, guys. :(

Thank you all for inspiring me to draw big dongs and weird kinky stuff :3
