Wow, been a while since I had to do this but.... Hey! This FWA was crazy good!

I've got 13 "slots" filled right now, enough to keep me busy for a few months, and to prevent adding to the leaning tower of yet-to-exist images, I'll be closing until I have a significant ammount of these convention commissions done.

As you can guess, this FWA went very well for me. 12 of my 13 unfinished images were from just this past 4 days!

If you're one of my commissioners, just wanted to say thank you for this! I'll be doing everything I can to keep in good communication with all of you, and will send everyone some extra information soon. If you're not one of my commissioners, then you'll be getting some of that also, such as info about Livestreaming and such.

Also a very successful part of this convention, got through his first time fursuiting, and it went well! I was so happy to see his hard work pay off. <3 He did awesome!

On another note, I spent a bunch on prints and stickers and postcards, and will probably eventually get around to making a list to share with everyone, because some of these things are amazziingg.

Well, its time to prepare and organize for what may be the next few months of work, along with cleaning up the mess I made of my traditional supplies.

:D Doing a commission livestream, if anyone is interested!

25$ base price sketch commissions. Will probably include a bit of shading.

NO QUEUE AS OF WRITING THIS!

Few notes:
25$ is the base price! Wings and props and complicated things may add 5-10$.
Must have reference
Paypal only for these
No explicit NSFW
Will probably stick to waist up
First come first serve, unless I can't do the commission due to my T.O.S.

https://trello.com/b/M4CRJ2h9/commi.....on-information

So, I made the jump and decided to make a Trello to keep track of my commission information, queue, trades, and even my personal art and design ideas!

At the link above, you can see my current websites, Commission status, T.O.S., reviews, price information, what kind of commissions I offer, and examples.

Keep in mind that commissions are not necessarily on a first-come-first-serve basis, I will take more sketch commissions than reff sheet or full illustrations, and that my prices may change depending on how much I have on my plate.

:> I will have a real commission sheet with examples out soon, so keep an eye out for that if you're interested!

Weird to post something after all this time, but :D SURPRISE.

I just got married to

6.5 years of dating, and today, after about 5 minutes, we became husband and wife.

That's pretty much it. Moving to Atlanta in a week, and will start summer classes soon.

I'm so glad Michael and I don't have to go our separate ways again. It was miserable, having to get on a plane or dropping him off at the airport. But now we don't have to anymore!

Love you Zae <3

I decided to listen to a suggestion from another artist, and have decided to make my "reviews" more anonymous using Surveymonkey.

https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/YH5RDBH

If you still wish to write a review http://www.furaffinity.net/journal/5431435/ < here, feel free, but please be honest and stick to the 1-10 ranking scale.

Thank you for any feedback, I REALLY appreciate it.


I will weed out any obvious trolls btw :U

I just posted a Terms of Service for my commission. Most of them are common sense, but if you commission me, PLEAAASE read these just to make sure what I allow as far as edits/deadlines/reference.

https://docs.google.com/document/d/.....HaWQ9es2U/edit

If you have any suggestions, please let me know. I will not take anything off the list, but I will add something or make it more clear.

Any time someone notes me about a commission, I will remind them and let them know if there have been any recent changes.


My current prices: http://cloudymayday.deviantart.com/.....OPEN-437520203

IM THINKING OF OFFERING REDUCED PRICES ON 30$+ COMMISSIONS NEXT WEEK FOR 2 WEEKS.

ANYONE INTERESTEEEEED?

(all caps are completely necessary)

Bonzai, my dog, died today.


I found him a few hours ago. I have an idea of what happened. He wasn't that old, and it looked like trauma was involved.... but... i really cant talk about that right now. There is something i need to talk about though...


I still dont know how to deal with it. I dont believe in souls. I dont believe in doggy heaven, so please dont tell me any of that stuff. It wont help me.


I don't want condolences right now. I always hated giving them because they felt wrong, never sounded right, and so far i've hated recieving them... I know everyone has lost pets, family members. I know everyone can empathize with me.

I want you, I NEED you, to love something right now.

Go hug your pets if you have them. Pet them, kiss them, everything. Do it right now. If you dont, go hug someone you love

When you're done doing that, however long it takes, write a journal or something, and tell other people to do it. I am serious about this. Do it.


They mean so much to us. Bonzai meant so much to me.


He was a small, furry dog, and most people wouldnt think much of this.

But he made me happy. He made people who played with him happy.


Every little bit counts. Every moment he was with me was one moment i wasn't alone. I cant remmeber any specific times, but he probably saved my sanity and, in turn, my life, in most cases.


I know there will be times when you look at your pets and dont think much of them, even if you love them. You might even think they dont effect you.

But right now, i want you to go to them, and pet them, and give them a reat, and even though they dont understand you, tell them you love them. Tell them you love them every day you can, and if you miss a day, make up for it.


Even then, that wont be enough. You can never convey how much you love someone or something. I told him that I loved him and it still doesn't feel like enough.


Ill be dealing with this over the next few weeks, months, years, I don't know. I'll feel better someday. I've lost a dog before, so I know it gets better, the pain.

Go love someone. Every little ounce counts.





Bonzai loved me as much as a dog can love, and I still love him. I will always love him.
He was smart, he was grumpy, he had selective hearing, he loved to play fetch, he was active, he loved squeaky toys, he hated most of the food we bought. He got out a little too often.

Bonzai is gone. Like I said, i don't believe in souls.

But that in no way lessens the impact he had on me and will continue to have.

I love him. I love him so much. And because of him, I love every pet out there.

I wanted to say real quick while i could, I'm sorry for the lack of activity here. I've been very lazy, and something weird has happened.

FA doesnt work very well on my computer for some reason. Ill try my best to resolve this but I dont know where to start. It doesnt work long enough for me to upload a submission ant it gets frustrating.

So, if you want to see some of my newer work, please take a peek at Cloudymayday.deviantart.com . I'd really appreciate it...

And that's where youll see the comiiiic. LOOK AT THE COMIC, GIMME FEEDBACK PEOPLE. PLXXX.

Thank you
