Here comes another special. And this time it's for next month commissions. I'm busy working to complete a backlog of commissions but I wanted to put this special up to pay for my deposit on the house that I'm getting at the end of next month.

I've given up quiet a bit to be financially stable for now - and hope these are cheap enough and affordable for anyone. I really hope to sell these off by the 20th of this month. If I can then everything will be swimming beautifully for me.

---

CORE RULES:

Please read these, before attempting to ask for a slot. This is really important to know:

1) THESE COMMISSIONS WILL BE MADE WITHOUT WIPS.
I don't usually do this, but since it's a mark down I prefer to swim through the commissions without waiting for people.

2) COMMENT BELOW THE FOLLOWING TO GAIN A SLOT:
Reference Sheet of the Character(s) involved
A description of what you'd like to see in the commission as the end product
Any Additional references, pictures, or things you are inspired by to make this artwork look closer to what you'd like

3) AWAIT FOR MY PM/NOTE/PRIVATE MESSAGE
I'll contact you, I'll make sure you get that slot. But if you don't reply within 24 hours and I do not receive payment - the slot will be forfeit to the next commission below.
These are limited, and I have a time limit for payments. FULL Payment is made before I book you in.

4) WAIT FOR THE FINISHED PRODUCT
I will note you when I've finished the artwork, also the artwork will be uploaded online on finished product.

---

CARDINAL RULES

1) This product is artist freedom to the extend of description you provide for me. So complaining about something (Which never happens to me) is out of the question. But I PROMISE YOU, I will be making the best out of your commission as possible

2) Payment First. Always has been like this, always will continue this way. As a trusted artist I have refunded without question - but within reason.

Unless you like to shop rather than commission: http://nanukkluik.com/shop/

A few reasons for that, beginning burnout was huge. But took my work in strides. Then something happened and needed to comfort a friend (which I was working while he was over again). I should be back to my normal routine on Thursday.

I'll see you all then.

Love you guys

Yep, as the title says, my area's power is out. Need to wait for them to fix the problem, been out since midnight like... 9 hours ago xD So it might not come on any time soon

CYA GUYS!

Later today I may be announcing this. 30 day challenge, 5 headbusts a day max, if I fulfill it then I won't go for a job application my housemate is pulling me towards. If I do make it, I prove that this is the work I'm supposed to be doing. 100 headbusts. 30 days.

Are you guys interested? It would help me pay all my debts, and monthly expenses.

Do you think $15 is too much?


Also the rules would be this:

1) You'd need to comment below - giving your character references
2) You'd need to Paypal the money to me immediately with a note of your username on FA
3) You'd give me artistic freedom, I'll be drawing these everyday and the choice of pose and progress will be mine, this speeds up the headbust process.


What do you think?

This is just a little journal letting people know that is doing a raffle, ongoing. Donate a dollar (or more) to anyone and stand a chance of winning art from one of their donors. One of these donors is me.

The Raffle Journal: http://www.furaffinity.net/journal/8317311/

It's a biyearly raffle that takes place for those who help others in whatever plight they currently have. So if you want to, go watch and support those in need around Furaffinity!

:) I'm gladly helping in the best way I know how, word of mouth and my graphic tablet.


Thanks for reading and hope to see you on the other side!

I'm doing better, managed to sneak in some work here and there but not a lot. Hopefully I can get some commissions out by tomorrow :) Will see! But thank you for giving the rest I needed <3

Hi guys!

Some bad news for my current lined up customers. I need to take a week off, I caught a flu over the weekend, been to the doctor's and I have a flu with bronchitis arising. So I'm going to be mostly bedridden for a while.

I do not want to work while I'm sick, not because I should be sleeping, but because I won't be able to concentrate and make the best art possible for my next customers :)/

If that is alright with you guys that is.


GOOD NEWS

Backlog is almost complete, just another 2 weeks and Ill be done with everything. Hopefully, if the sickness goes away sooner than later, I'll be able to get that backlog done before the end of the month.

Commissions are open for the end of this month, and it will bleed into next month as well so please go ahead and take a booking so long!


Hope to hear from you guys soon! And I will get well soon!

~Nanukk

FOLLOW THESE PEOPLE




Why should we?

First and foremost, they are a Charity and LendAHand foundation, helping those in need on Furaffinity.
Secondly, you can find raffles on there for those who can't afford big commissions, maybe you can add something really small every raffle. Prizes are willingly given for free.


Aren't their people who would scam?

We don't refer them to people who scam, we call them trash, but that's not the point.
THE POINT IS, even if it are those who do scam, there are quite a few people who are really in need. And Furaffinity Lend a Hand can help them.


Why are you so adamant about us watching them and supporting them?

I know some of you want a commission from me but can't afford it, and some of you are charitable.

But back to the commission? Okay, well you stand a chance of winning $50 USD discount or a fully shaded piece of any character, in any pose with ANYTHING added to them, for free. :P As long as it is just the character and a single pinup. OR a $50 USD discount on anything else you want.

Raffle is here:
http://www.furaffinity.net/journal/8138031/

And as you can see, I'm on of the prizes. NOW GO WATCH AND DONATE!

I've actually changed a lot since I was younger, seeing what is beautiful. And I came to terms that there are some bodies are seem more beautiful than what is signified as 'beautiful'.

Example, the whole thing about women needing to be skinny, but in the 1600s, people found that more belly equally ideal.

What is your preference, if any?

Hypothetically speaking:
Why do people some love really tall chubby guys, and not shorter ones?
Why is it the opposite for some?
What is in the beauty of smaller skinny guys compared to someone taller and thinner?

I'm starting to feel there is no preference, that I've been losing weight to fit an ideal that people would like...but in essence...

Wouldn't me, a 6' 6" (2 meter high) guy, with body hair, be better off muscular and chubby like those shown as Bara?

---

Alright so Im flying home today, meaning I can get back to work on Monday. Was a good trip but time to get back into work :)

SEE YOU THEN! MAY EVEN STREAM!

HAPPY EASTER!

I'm still currently out of my city, work is slow down here in Cape Town. So for all my customers, don't you worry, everything will be done by the end of the month, and waiting to get home before I upload anything!

Thank you for all your patience!

Love you all!

Yes. I have a Patreon now

Actually giving off lots of rewards. Right now there is nothing much on it other than promises that will end up being fulfilled in May!

Right now I'm not exactly home, Im in another city till the 22nd!

BUT IF YOU'D LIKE TO CHECK IT OUT:
https://www.patreon.com/NanukkLuik

You may pledge for now if you like! Pledges start being fulfilled the start of each month. If...by chance...I end up earning over $500 or so I shall probably make my own website and end up doing somewhat of the same reward system on there with an automated reward system for my Patrons. That way everyone gets their stuff and my website tells me what to do and when to do it by! HAZZUH!

His name was JC.
I met him just before I became a furry. I was pretty lonely at the time, didn't have many friends. He was one of the random contacts that I ended up chatting to after chatrooming. He was sweet and kind.
We met, went to a mall, he was a bit happy and somewhat hyper at the same time. But to others he was pretty quiet.

Strange

We stopped talking for a few years, till University 2nd year when he started University in the same department as I did.

Art Major

I didn't recognize him back then, I'm sure he probably didn't recognize me either. Our class had a project going on, we had to introduce ourselves and interview the first years at our department. I was rebounding, I went from one guy to another because I broke up with someone that truly cared for me. The point being I saw someone really handsome in his class. I wanted to interview a girl and a boy and that boy was...something else. I don't know what he did but...he was straight and I shouldn't of crushed so damn hard on him.
The girl, was JC's friend, even when she told me 'PLEASE INTERVIEW HIM' I said I wanted to have someone else who was dynamic and probably not friends with. JC looked sad.

Depression

I crushed so hard on that guy, and I interviewed the girl, she was so excitable but she really wanted me to interview JC. Who was this JC?

JC

One day a few months later I was waiting to be picked up by my grandmother. JC was standing 2 feet away from me.

"Talk to him"

I wanted to, but I was too shy to. I'm not the most willing person to socialize back then. I mean I just started gaining friends. And I mean it was now or never. My gran arrived.

"I didn't have a chance to..."

I had a sweet life back then, study, game, free accommodation, didn't worry about much.

"I should have spoken to him then"

I didn't get another chance to talk to JC after that...
My art major got more hectic. Theory and communication studies with my practicals was hard enough...but the teachers weren't helping me at all. I was being bullied.

"Where was I, when he..."

I skipped classes because I had no one to help me out. I was becoming more lonely. No one understood me. And they asked me things like "Do you fuck dogs?" I mean I don't...I just draw furries.

"Where was he?"

Years after I graduated from university. I recalled a boy named JC. And remembered him...he was a friend. Why didn't I approach him back then?
One day I went to a friend's house and one of his close friends were there. She was nice. I approached her.

"What did she say?"


"Hey, you are that girl that hung with JC, right?" I asked

"Yeah...did you know him?" She replied

"Yea, we used to be friends but something happened and I think we just lost track of time, how is he?" I pried.

I should of approached him

He committed suicide...

...

.


.



He struggled with his sexuality and after a huge breakup with his last boyfriend...he couldn't handle it anymore... they found him hung...

Regret

I told myself to 'Talk to him' but my gran arrived so 'I didn't have a chance to...' speak with him. But I could have, I was free, I could of interviewed him but 'Where was I, when he...' was suffering with depression?! 'Where was he?' Crying when I could of helped. I keep telling myself...the words that she told me about his suicide...I keep going on thinking. How would you know until it's too late? 'I should of approached him' and now I have 'Regret' that I didn't save a friend I once knew.

Suicide is a real thing, even if it's not clear or visible to us...we need to be there for everyone, be kind, help...approach. Make them feel noticed. For those who have lost their lives to bullying, acceptance, abuse, tragedy...we need to come together as a society...stop ignoring people. Brave up, conquer your anxiety...make them feel noticed.

For JC

I'm thinking I need work on feet, and making them look all the same isn't really helping, this week I'm gonna try make it into a more realistic approach. See how that goes, doing 5 ref sheets, so I'm sure I'll have enough practice by then!
