Congratulations, FA!
Posted 15 years agoToday is the day that everyone in your userbase gains the respect of the general public! That's right, with the kiddie-fuckers now cast out of our glorious golden palace of normalcy, each and every one of us has been awarded a Badge of Acceptance.
What does this Badge of Acceptance do? I'm glad you asked! Now, any time somebody questions why you're an incredulous nerd who spends a lot of time looking at animal pictures, you simply have to brandish your badge and reply, "There's no need to fear, I'm a normal person just like you!" If someone asks about all that perfectly respectable rape piss gore porn you've got, you just flash that badge and all your worries are abated.
After they see it, they'll embrace you just like you've been waiting for all these years when the blight of dirty pedophiles (by which we of course mean hebephiles and ephibophiles, they're all child molesters, after all) held us back, that single pinion of shame on our reputation as a whole!
The nightmare's over, folks, we're all normal!
Or.
Or maybe...
Or maybe it was a purely financial problem and I'm projecting my personal shortcomings onto a demographic of easy targets for my own deluded self-satisfaction.
PS: Grab my underage stuff while it's still around. FA mods can have fun rooting through my massive gallery, I've got more important things to do. Like watch GaoGaiGar.

It's my birthday -AND - new pricing scheme
Posted 15 years agoYep! I'm 24 now, as of 3 hours ago. No big whoop. I'm getting a little older, but I'm doing my best and trying to stay positive as most I can. I have things I regret, as well as things I would do all over again if I could. As I get into this once-more-divisible-by-twelve age, I feel my once burning need to be important fading- replaced by a contentedness. Content to enjoy the company of my friends, content to meet people here and there and say goodbye to those who I've grown apart from. Content to just do well enough to share the future years with the ones I love.
Especially you,
chayfox. You'll always be the one that I would give up anything for.
And I'm thankful for it. Running yourself ragged chasing your dreams isn't always what it's cracked up to be. I'm...
Happy.
In other news, I've been mulling over my commission prices. While it remains true that I do like money, I realized that I could be a good bit more charitable about the art end of it, I think! The number one thing was that I figured, nobody wants to pay extra for just two characters in a picture. So! Now, not only have I dropped the price of overall commissions, but up to two characters are covered by the charge. Keep in mind, I am still not open for commissions yet! But nevertheless, here was my tentative plan:
Sketch (up to 2 characters!) - $12
Digital Color (up to 2 characters!) - $25
Additional characters - $10 each
Detailed background - $5
Comic page (sketch) - $24
Comic page (color) - $40

Hiding Comments, Flash -AND- Gwen
Posted 15 years agoI like the fact that we can now hide comments. It's something that really sort of stops people from all having to endure really akward moments in an otherwise enjoyable engagement. I think a lot of us- especially Americans- get caught up in this idea that the Internet is the US, and that we all have freedom of speech online. The fact is, we don't. We're taking advantage of somebody else's generosity, and we really tend to lose sight of that.
Another good thing about it is that this should quash some of the lazy trolling fad that's so prevalent anymore. If I see another "lolz inb4 urmad furfaghurdur" it'll be entirely too soon. I mean, it's one thing to have a clever snipe at someone, but it's entirely another to just stupidly regurgitate garbage in someone's face. At least now there's a way to ebb the flow of that.
In other news, Flash has again become the focus of a project I'm working on, and as a result, I am going even further insane than previously established. The eraser doesn't work on every kind of stroke, the paint bucket is fickle as hell... and SERIOUSLY, can I just turn my little loop of keyframes into a movieclip and have it behave as an object?? Is that really so much to ask? This application was written by followers of Dagon, because after twenty minutes, I want to throw myself into the sea. I can understand wanting to serve people who can't draw frame by frame, but I. Fucking. CAN.
I was also thinking lately... Dear Abbie is still going despite the real Abbie being dead as a doornail. But when I'm gone, Ask Dr. Gwen will go with me. I can't quite explain why this bothers me. I'm not like other artists, who pour their soul into their work and hope one day to be loved and accepted and successful because of it- I'm pretty much just someone who has a lot of fun with it. So the idea that I've created something that I actually wish was less mortal than I am... well, it's kind of surprising. And disorienting. Your thoughts?

As a fan of Castlevania...

sgtklark has apparently been around the block, despite my never seeing his work before. He's got a style that has fun with itself, and I really dig the vibe of his work overall- he has an aggregate effect that's really enjoyable, whether it be funny, dirty, or just fun. So even though I'm sure he'll have plenty of people watching him from previous encounters, I want you to make sure you take a look as well!
__Body__
... I'm really digging Lords of Shadow. Is it Old Castlevania? No. But I've played Old Castlevania. I've been playing Old Castlevania since it was available, which turned out to be my birth. I've played Old Castlevania in a myriad of forms up and down and sideways, good, bad and 64. I don't have to play it again.
Ever since Lament of Innocence, I was left jonesing for a different approach done well. And I personally think Lords of Shadow does that. Is it Belmont vs. Dracula? Not clearly, no. Mind you, I'm 2/3rds through, but even if it turns out not to be, I won't care (don't you spoil anything, though, or I'll beat you). Because the ultimate triumph of the game is making me think, "You know, this feels like Castlevania, if Castlevania wasn't really fuckin' goofy." Which, sure, the goof is part of the charm, I don't begrudge that at all! But it's refreshing, is the point. All the familiar parts are there, in numbers that I didn't expect, and in a package that makes me respect it as a serious story. Supernatural? Check. Meatpunch protagonist? Check. Nietzschean battle against one's own self? Got it.
I'll still hold judgement for when I finish the game, but so far it's done me no wrong. Fun stuff.
In short? More struggle against the forces of the supernatural, less this:

danund81 is an up-and-coming artist around FA, who has a lot of enthusiasm for the same kind of pervy hijinx that I personally love. He's also big on interacting with the community, so go say 'hi' and check him out!
__Body__
As I sit here, getting ready for work, idly completing parts of my remaining commissions, I'm reflecting on the experience of doing commissions for the first (well, second) time.
Overall, it's been a pretty good one for me. Even with a few hiccups here and there, it feels as if, for the most part, it's been fulfilling. I really like to latch onto the aspect of it that helps someone's desires come to life. The people who are really into it are the most fun, because at some point, it's almost like a collaboration. Some ideas can at times be dull and unoriginal, but others can be incredibly different and interesting. I feel like I was taken out of my immediate comfort zone enough to challenge me, but not so much that it would've been like taking some college course on cubism.
Now, this latest batch took a long time. I tried to prioritize based on when I received each person's information and whatnot, but in the end, I just ended up really taking a while. It's been a few months, and I'm almost done, but it really felt like a stretch on the last third. So I definitely think I'm going to cut down my list to maybe about 4-5 in the future when I take commissions again.
But! I'd like to know, if you got a commission from me, what you thought of the experience. Were you satisfied, did I do anything you didn't like, did you feel the price was fair? Heck, even if you didn't, let me know what you think of my prices, reaction time, etc. from the outside- has it made you want one from me any more or less?
Also, I cannot wait for the new Castlevania and Splatterhouse to come out! Is anyone else excited about either one of these? Until they come out, I guess I'll have to temper my excitement on GaoGaiGar and Overman King Gainer. Between the two, I'm not sure which series is weirder, to be quite honest.

ancient_one[Awaiting Payment]Super Robot Wars, Birthdays and Starfox
Posted 15 years ago__Header__
Current Feature Artist!
zenia is a skilled artist who doesn't sacrifice anything for quality. I enjoyed a commission from her, and you will, too!
__Body__
So recently, chayfox had a birthday (it was on the 5th), and he and I had quite a time of it- I used my vacation time and we had a marathon of goofing off, watching Mythbusters/super robot shows and generally not doing anything. I botched up a cake, but he got some things and was quite happy.
But after his birthday, he apparently decided to give all of us a present instead- he finally finished a story that I really liked from the time he started it a long while back: Within Your Eyes. Set sometime after Assault, it shows the Starfox crew trying to get through life after the Aparoid Invasion- and without the support of the Great Fox. It's a good, not too long read!
I also was given Super Robot Wars K by him, and it's really quite fun- has Godannar in it, and hasn't been too hard to understand thus far!

Aden proves that sometimes quality is better than quantity. Though the updates are somewhat infrequent, you're guaranteed to enjoy what he puts out- especially the gorgeous paintings! Give his whole gallery a gander!
__Body__
You know, the longer I live, the more I find that if I want to get art done that I owe to people, I have to also do things that I'm inspired to. Art's kind of like a hose to me- you either have it on and get blasted, or try to get little bits out of it and end up shutting off the line. So in short, if I'm posting other, personal stuff, it means that I am indeed also working on commissions. I notice some people assume otherwise with various artists who like to blow them off and whatnot, so I thought I'd address that.
Also, I think I'm definitely going to make a policy of "you don't pay me until I sketch something." It really works for me, and is very motivating.
Additionally, does anyone here play Global Agenda? Chay and I do quite a bit, and... well, to be honest, for some reason the vast majority of people who play are retarded. o.o PvE Melee Recons, Assaults who don't understand healing, Medics who don't heal... and dear god, they'll set off any alarms at least three times. So! Any takers?

Hey! I'm just about to run out and pick up chayfox's glasses, so I'll make this brief. You might be wondering what's going on with Nori lately. Well, regardless, I'm gonna tell ya!
Work has drained everything out of me in the past month or so. There've been massive staffing problems at my workplace, so it's left me totally without the energy for anything by the time I get home. That would explain why I can't seem to work down this piddly commission list! Nevertheless, I am making progress- I just need a little breathing room to work in. Things are getting a little better in the last few days, so hopefully that'll be soon! I've also been somewhat neglecting Ask Dr. Gwen, but trying to keep at least a weekly update.
Also, I have a new featured artist up in the header! Check 'em out!

ratte is one of those artists that you just say, "You've got talent." With an apparent love of rodents and felines, she has a flair for digital painting that leaves you wondering if you actually might reach through your screen and pet one of those fluffballs. Equally good with the cute and the recalcitrant, she's one artist you don't want to overlook!
__Body__
I think it's about time I got off my lazy ass and started featuring some artists who don't get enough exposure around here; artists that either leave me in the dust, or just have something I like about them that I think you'll enjoy. I've kept putting it off thinking it might be egotistical, but it occurs to me that this is somewhat selfish, and at least one of you crazy fuckers has got to enjoy what's being offered. So G'WAN. Give it a go, you won't be sorry!
I'll be featuring a new artist in every journal that I can. It's time to start giving back.

ancient_one[Planning]Today was a good day.
Posted 15 years agoAfter having received my tax return money from the IRS, I had a number of things I was out to do today. The primary of which was to buy a couch, which has been sorely missing from the house chayfox and I own for a good time now. I heard an ad on the radio for a place called The Dump that sells stuff from other places that've gone out of business. Well, while I'd counted on plunking down a good $900 for a good couch, I got this one (but blue) for a mere $200!
Loving this good fortune, Chay and I decided to celebrate by spending part of what we would have stocking up on stuff to watch while sitting our fabulous asses in this thing- GaoGaiGar, Star Trek: Next Generation Season 3, Venture Bros. Season 1, and the apparently quite freaking awesome Godannar. While in the Fry's, Chay pointed out cans of my absolute favorite unattainable snack in the WORLD, Mauna Loa's Garlic & Onion Macadamia Nuts. I bought four cans then and there.
After all that, I come home, let the boyfriend take a nap, and boot up TF2. What's the first thing I see?
OH DAMN!
What do you know, I was right. :>
Karma. Who loves ya, baby?
Edit: Also, I'm on Playstation Network as Norithics. Look me up! I'll Cody the crap out of you. :D

Coloring my pencils -AND- Dayum, Gwen
Posted 15 years ago__Header__
Chayfox writes, and it's good. Gasp!
__Body__
Inking has long been my hated enemy.
My big, clumsy hands have been terrible at getting lines right the first time for... a long time. It's one of the biggest shaping factors in how I draw, and is the reason why my colored commissions are like double the price of the sketches- pretty much all just inking over the sketch.
Recently, however, I've discovered that coloring in my sketches is indeed an option! This cuts about 1/3rd of the time out of making a picture, and finally meets a compromise between the tight lines of my pencil sketches, and the bright colors of my digital work. I'm really sorely tempted, so why don't you tell me: If I offered colored sketches for say, $20, would you find that fair? Just five dolla mo'!
Additionally, I have to say... holy crap. Ask Doctor Gwen exploded in such a short time. Thankfully the initial rush is over and now she's just getting a nice, even flow of questions, but I really didn't expect it to get that big. Apparently this place really needed the function that she serves.

I'm really sorely tempted, so why don't you tell me: If I offered colored sketches for say, $20, would you find that fair? Just five dolla mo'!
Additionally, I have to say... holy crap. Ask Doctor Gwen exploded in such a short time. Thankfully the initial rush is over and now she's just getting a nice, even flow of questions, but I really didn't expect it to get that big. Apparently this place really needed the function that she serves.

Catchy AND disturbing! What more could you want??
Speaking of which, man have my artistic fantasies wandered heavily into the male-empowerment camp as of late. I keep having to hammer at this niggling feeling that I'm portraying myself as misogynist in some way, but it's just fantasy. I don't believe in any of those highly offensive, socially regressive, fetish-tastic things I portray- they're just incredibly fun to indulge!

Ask Dr Gwen -AND- a Reminder
Posted 15 years ago__Header__
Chayfox just posted Chapter 9! Check it out, it's action-delicious.
__Body__
Well, I finally did it.
askdrgwen is go! This will be nothing if not interesting. I'm predicting more than a few doomsayers, but nobody ever learned by not-exploring.
Also: I know I've been a tad slow on commissions, but any of you that haven't noted me with what you want, you can do so at any time. Thanks. :)

oinuttah [Mission Comprete]Male Motivations and Sex Ed
Posted 15 years ago__Header__
Read chayfox's fanfiction! It'll make you reconsider your previous prejudices about what a man can do with a creative vision and syndicated characters.
__Body__
While doing my bi-weekly check on DeviantArt- I stopped uploading but still like to see some things there- I logged into my mature account there, and saw a comment on an old piece of work, by a troubled youth. It read:
"If [girls had breasts that big] then it would cause guys to become something they're not. It will often make the men feel like they're a prisoner of temptation. It happens to me, I get tempted when I don't want to. ... When I get tempted with sexual things though, I feel like its turning me into a monster, something I don't want to be. It's like an alternate personality of me I can't control. While I want to be close to women, not for their sexual bodies, but for passionate kindness and trust. It's my evil temptation for sex things that takes me over.
Now, this is obviously a case of youth and confusion exacerbating things a bit, but... the truth is, this is something most all men and boys have to face about ourselves. Just as those of the feminine persuasion are predisposed to being discriminating and investigative, we guys are predisposed to being aggressive and (at least attemptively) cunning.
Think about it. How many times has this instinct confused, inconvenienced, or completely dicked us over? There are so many situations that make us guys ask "why??":
-Why did I suddenly hit on that girl? I have no interest in her as a person, and she would never want to date me!
-Why am I suddenly so stuck on pursuing my longtime female friend? And why am I crushed when she nervously says 'no' with that surprised face?
-Why am I such a pervert when I'm actually a smart, nice guy? Why am I constantly sneaking looks at random girls, even ones I'm friends with? If I goosed that one for fun, why do I feel a little bit weird about it?
-Why do I feel this weird 'pressure to perform' in front of pretty girls? What the hell??
-Why do I keep dating girls that I hate just because they're physically attractive? Don't I respect myself?
None of these things are ever explained to us growing up. We guys need to understand the reasons for these feelings that don't seem to belong to us. We've been so exposed to the idea that we're just this way that it's now supposedly just part of our character! But I don't feel that's right. It's not that girl's fault that she's a little testy once a month, and it's not that guy's fault that he's inexplicably driven sometimes.
I'm a big example of this myself. In school, I was always the "safe" boy. Girls made up the vast majority of my friends demographic, because I was fun, listened well, and always seemed sexually unthreatening. The truth, of course, was that I was fun, listened well and just tried not to make my sexuality akward or embarassing. I wasn't going to make it obvious, but if one of my friends was wearing tight jeans, I was gonna look at 'em! If hugging or playful spanking was opportune, I was going to happily oblige! Did this corrupt all of my actions and make them go from genuine or innocuous to perverted? Not at all. That hug was genuine, and I felt both the warmth of friendly closeness as well as that then-mystifying thrill up my belly when their breasts pressed against me. Did I have different urges than the other boys? No way! I was just better at making them a little more palatable and less threatening.
The point is, I struggled with understanding this for a long time, and to this day I really could've benefitted from a somewhat accessible adult reassuring me that, "hey Dan, you're okay. You're not creepy or weird or stupid, you're just responding to instincts stronger than you. You can look, and notice, just don't embarass yourself or the other person with it! Context is everything! Keep what's important in mind and you'll be fine."
And come to think of it, girls and women need to know this, too. Feminism has given us a little better look into their motivations; it's such a good idea, that they should know ours, as well! It would take some of the shock and surprise out of those embarassing, akward, sometimes hurtful moments to know that every guy has them and they're normal.

oinuttah [Mission Comprete]Character vs. Creator
Posted 15 years ago__Header__
Read chayfox's fanfiction! It'll make you reconsider your previous prejudices about what a man can do with a creative vision and syndicated characters.
__Body__
Okay, I know I already did a meme last night, but this one looked too interesting to pass up. Besides, I never get to journal-spam with everyone else!
Dan vs. Nori
1.Is your character highly sexualized?
Yes, and uniquely so! He's big to small people, small to big people; believable in appearance yet incredulous in mannerism; clever enough to get the drop on someone, but overconfident enough to be surprised himself; masculine in a confidence fashion, yet somewhat feminine in presentation; hyper-endowed, but reservedly so. He's very... accessible, I guess is the word. And that's pretty much all 'sexual' really is, yeah?
2. Do you resemble your character in the flesh?
He's roughly my build, yeah. I don't have a tremendous dong, and his hair is -slightly- longer than mine, but only on the order of inches. I also have a very eyes-and-mouth dominated face.
3. Since your character is as you said, very sexualized, we assume he is very sexually active?
He's a hedonistic would-be supervillain. Yeah, he gets around.
4. Are you highly sexual?
Extremely. What I'm not, is obnoxious about it. This question is unpopular to admit a "yes" answer to because it seems to carry this air of "oh, so you're an uncouth and singleminded lust mongloid." Untrue! I'm a socially versatile and well-mannered lust mongloid.
5. Looking back now, do you see yourself as the fursona you made?
You define the cartoon character, not the other way around.
6. What do you want to do or go with your fursona?
I have a slightly receding hairline that will probably progress some throughout my life, so I'll most likely find a good hat and sport the Terry Bogard look, but I don't necessarily find any compelling reason to change him. He's fun, and his hair is already grey, for goodness' sake. :)

oinuttah [Mission Comprete]8 True Facts
Posted 15 years ago__Header__
Read chayfox's fanfiction! It'll make you reconsider your previous prejudices about what a man can do with a creative vision and syndicated characters.
__Body__
I was tagged by
asuraludu.
Here are the rules:
I don't respect rules! Do it if you want.
Eight little-known facts about myself:
1. I work at a call center dealing with educational financial aid, where my purpose is twofold: I troubleshoot all sorts of questions the reps have about tax law, federal loans, grants, etc., AND I take supervisor calls. Which essentially means I crush the souls of extremely ignorant, self-entitled people. Unless they're nice or something weird like that.
2. I can repair and maintain cars, but only if they're at least 50 years old.
3. Contrary to what some might think, I'm completely aware that I often rant overexcitedly about artwork I like. I'm kind of like the James Lipton of furry art.
4. I drink- on average- a gallon of iced tea every day. This is remarkable only if you don't know I live in Arizona.
5. I have a superiority complex.
6. I was lead guitarist in a punk band called "900 lb. Gorilla." Sometimes a friend who played trumpet would come over and join in, which caused us to temporarily transform into a ska band.
7. I have sexual thoughts about every single friend I acquire, nomatter how tertiary or casual. Despite this, I avoid being a creepy fuck about it. :)
8. I am unable to ever, given infinite time, solve a sliding block puzzle.

oinuttah [Mission Comprete]Pie, Megaman 10 and Ask Dr. Gwen?
Posted 15 years ago__Header__
Read chayfox's fanfiction! It'll make you reconsider your previous prejudices about what a man can do with a creative vision and syndicated characters.
__Body__
You know, sometimes I do stupid things that cause me incredible grief. And other times, I do things that help me out down the line. For instance, I realized this month when I got my electric bill, that I'd paid them twice the month before without realizing it. I never don't pay a bill, and I always make sure of that, but little did I know that there would still be a way for financial skullduggery to occur. What did I do with this extra cash? Put it toward other bills and credit card debt. And with the money from commissions? I armed my boyfriend with the ingredients necessary, and now I have the objects of my greatest lust.
Additionally, I bought Mega Man 10, and we've both been playing the dickens out of it. He chose to play through as the Blue Bomber, and I picked Proto Man, who can slide and blocks shots while jumping, but takes -three times- the damage. I love it, it's a great return to what made Mega Man fun, but... I find myself wishing that they'd let me use the shoulder buttons to shoot. Playing Megaman Zero may have spoiled me here- and I'm playing through those again currently, so I have basis for comparison- but after a while, my thumb hurts from charging Proto Man's buster. It's really a small complaint, but still a bummer when I have to stop playing for a while.
To take a serious turn, I've been thinking about something else lately. Unlike the good doctor Gwen, I'm not a licensed therapist. However, I've been giving people analysis and advice for some years now, and while I keep these conversations private, I do like to compile the information pertaining to fetishes because of how valuable I believe it to be- this is, to me, an ignored facet of psychology relegated to the outer edges of society, and treated more as a sideshow than something from which to gain very interesting bits of knowledge.
But to return to the therapy and advice part, I'm not so much doing this sort of thing because I want to replace professional help, but rather... because people often don't go to therapists in the first place. There's fear, stigma and all sorts of reasons why somebody wouldn't want to find and pay someone to listen to them. It's for this reason that I've been toying with an idea lately- creating an alternate account called Ask Doctor Gwen. Kind of a Dear Abby, but featuring a cute cartoon skunk girl who answers your questions. And using artistic shortcuts, I might even illustrate some of the more interesting questions in mini-comic format (anonymously unnamed, of course).
It's just an idea. There's room for abuse by trolls and the like, but it might be an easier way for me to sort through notes and such without getting everything all jumbled.

oinuttah [Paid, Planning]I'm taking commissions! ... Again! (Update: CLOSED!)
Posted 15 years agoOkay, holy cow that went fast. Sorry again to anybody who didn't get in. Now to buckle down and do this thang!
__Header__
Read chayfox's fanfiction! It'll make you reconsider your previous prejudices about what a man can do with a creative vision and syndicated characters.
seppuku is offering commissions for $3! Not this-ninety-nine, that-ninety-nine, THREE BUCKS. Get one!
__Body__
That's right, folks. I am ONCE AGAIN open for commissions! I wanted to get all of the previous ones done first, but I also love things like root beer and blueberry pie- which my boyfriend has promised to make me if we have the money. Now, that's hardly an emergency, so if you have an choice between me and someone drowning in possible house-kicking-outage, I'm not about to make a fuss. Still! If you have disposable income and would like for me to make you a picture, now is the time to speak up! I've got six open slots.
Now, you may be noticing, there are some other individuals who appear in the 'reserved slots' section. This is purely because they asked and I agreed. However, I kind of play favorites with this just purely based on things I'd artistically like to explore and many other variables. It doesn't mean I don't love you just as much. :D Also! If you are on the reserved slots list, don't feel obligated if you're for some reason in a crunch now or just disinterested- I'm just holdin' em Texas style 'till you ask for somethin' or tell me otherwise.
As well! The previous commissions still take priority. I'm in the middle of Anjuneko's, and with Myrilla it's just a matter of figuring out a time we're both awake. That said, go get 'em!
Sketches - $15
Digital Color - $30
Additional characters - $10 each
Detailed background - $5
Everything else negotiable. Please have a reference or a damn good description~! I am a trustworthy artist, but if you still want to wait for a rough before paying, I am cool with this. All payments go to Norithics[AT]Gmail[DOT]com.
SLOTS:
[Finished/Previously agreed to] (Listed because they're good for my confidence and they give you a good idea of what you're getting!)

chayfox's fanfiction! It'll make you reconsider your previous prejudices about what a man can do with a creative vision and syndicated characters.
seppuku is offering commissions for $3! Not this-ninety-nine, that-ninety-nine, THREE BUCKS. Get one!__Body__
That's right, folks. I am ONCE AGAIN open for commissions! I wanted to get all of the previous ones done first, but I also love things like root beer and blueberry pie- which my boyfriend has promised to make me if we have the money. Now, that's hardly an emergency, so if you have an choice between me and someone drowning in possible house-kicking-outage, I'm not about to make a fuss. Still! If you have disposable income and would like for me to make you a picture, now is the time to speak up! I've got six open slots.
Now, you may be noticing, there are some other individuals who appear in the 'reserved slots' section. This is purely because they asked and I agreed. However, I kind of play favorites with this just purely based on things I'd artistically like to explore and many other variables. It doesn't mean I don't love you just as much. :D Also! If you are on the reserved slots list, don't feel obligated if you're for some reason in a crunch now or just disinterested- I'm just holdin' em Texas style 'till you ask for somethin' or tell me otherwise.
As well! The previous commissions still take priority. I'm in the middle of Anjuneko's, and with Myrilla it's just a matter of figuring out a time we're both awake. That said, go get 'em!
Sketches - $15
Digital Color - $30
Additional characters - $10 each
Detailed background - $5
Everything else negotiable. Please have a reference or a damn good description~! I am a trustworthy artist, but if you still want to wait for a rough before paying, I am cool with this. All payments go to Norithics[AT]Gmail[DOT]com.
SLOTS:
[Finished/Previously agreed to] (Listed because they're good for my confidence and they give you a good idea of what you're getting!)

Satire -AND- Don't step on the Little Guy

Okay, so. With my latest picture, some people seem to think that I'm taking the piss out of the FA decision-makers for putting down the rules that they did regarding underage artwork.
Well, let me be the first to say that I'm not. You don't have to be a sadist to be a satirist, and not every piece that makes fun of something has to victimize somebody. Rather than that, what I was trying to do was frame how preposterous this whole ordeal is with laws being introduced to regulate imaginary cartoon kids being abused. 'Kay? Great.
I've been thinking about something else, as well: As a community, FA isn't very helpful to beginning artists. The amount of honest critique you'll find on this website is miniscule unless it's something very obvious, and if you aren't popular in the first place, you might never get it. On the other side, even the appreciation is very generalized- one might even say sterilized. I notice unique things about others' work quite a bit, and I do try to say things about it that will let them know what I particularly enjoy and want them to cultivate. That, even aside from mistake-spotting, is helpful enough to keep somebody going and focus them.
As well, I still really don't understand why so many artists choose to jealously guard their work. When I say you can go out and trace, color, visual copy or whatever you want to do with my work, I totally mean it, and for two good reasons:
1. I like up and coming artists. What's lacking in skill, technique or knowledge on tools is often made up for in part by honesty. There's a sort of purity in one's first breakings into a medium, and it says a lot about how someone will progress by laying their strengths and weaknesses right on the table. Everything's still new to them, so it's often still fun in a way that you don't often get from someone who's been manufacturing perfect illustrations for a decade. And-
2. I don't like being a hypocrite. I don't know about you folks, but when I was a kid, I traced. I copied and colored and used others' artwork to express myself, because their stuff inspired me, excited me! And did those comic book artists jealously scorn kids like me for it? No; they put that terribly drawn Raphael or Tails or what have you right up there in the Fan Art section, and praised the effort. To do anything less myself would be to turn a blind eye to this.
So this is why I celebrate beginning artists and all their efforts. Because even if they don't draw so well, or their renditions aren't as smooth or practiced, they have fun and don't deserve to get stomped on for wanting to join in. And eventually they'll grow out of tracing pictures, and want to make their own things. And that, is the circle of art. <3

Myrilla [Planning]I had a weird dream.
Posted 15 years ago__Header__
Read chayfox's fanfiction! It'll make you reconsider your previous prejudices about what a man can do with a creative vision and syndicated characters.
__Body__
In said dream, I was a roadie for KISS. I went around tuning instruments, setting up amplifiers and various effect pedals and whatnot, except all the roadies looked at me weird. Well, eventually I found out that I was actually another person in Ace Frehly's body, and they expected me to play in this upcoming concert that was happening in two days. All I could think of was, "But wait a minute! I play guitar, but I don't even really like KISS! Not since I was... like, eleven and my mom played their tapes in the car!"
So then I had to engage in a huge Sports-Training Montage where I learned all of KISS's songs- to the tune of 'Deuce.' For some reason I even wore a sweatband and everything, and all the roadies sarcastically cheered me on because they thought Ace Frehly had become retarded.
The dream ended with Al from Quantum Leap telling me I'd succeeded and me disappearing from the dude's body.
God that was dumb.

"every time I try to do anything art-wise for money, I just freeze up. The pressure of completion stresses me out too much to do artwork." -me
Wrong, bitch! The anxiety of not having money stresses you out too much to do artwork!
Hahah, pardon my self-punishing monologue, but wow I don't think I've ever been so glad to be so utterly wrong about something. Yeah, as it turns out, my gut constantly being in a knot because forty five dollars needs to buy gas, milk and hotdogs is the reason why I can't draw most of the time- combined with the fact that I hardly ever know what to draw these days. Craaaazy enough, when you add money and ideas to my life, suddenly I really fuckin' like drawing! To the point where it's actively fun, even, instead of just amusing.
Of course, it helps that the people who have commissioned me so far have been really great; a stark contrast to my old experiences. People have been very curteous, helpful, responsive and evidently really enjoy the finished product. Heck, the only real trouble I've had is getting in contact with Myr, and that's just because my AIM's been so funky. I was just hoping to get out of this alive, but I like the working relationships and the fun of tackling others' wants so much, I think I'm gonna do this commission stuff on the regular! 'S fun! And I'm completing them at a pretty good pace- at least, I think I am; I haven't really looked at how quickly others do them.
Plus, hell, money coming into my bank account rather than out is like the holy song of a hundred large-titted valkyries. Of course, I'm obviously still riding the high of having money again, but I also feel good about actually being proud of what I'm working on- the art, the impression I leave on people, and the fact that this talent is actually gaining me something tangible- as tangible as a Brisk iced tea. Cheers to that. :)

If so, I would very much recommend Like No Other Girl You Know, a short written by chayfox that's entertaining and stands alone; you don't have to know the characters- from The Mobian Chronicles, his big epic in progress- to have fun with this one. It's a little mature (I'd say PG-13), but that's part of the fun!
Go! Take a look!

I'm taking commissions! (UPDATE: CLOSED)
Posted 15 years agoCLOSED! Damn, that was quick. Sorry to all those who are broke or didn't make it, but depending on how this goes, I may well do it again, so keep me in mind. And for all the rest of you folks, I will be busting my raccoon balls to give you what you wanted!
________________
You know, I thought I was gonna manage to make it out of this whole economic slump without having to do the art for money thing, but two destroyed tires, a dead battery, a neglectful homeowner's association and several other ambush expenses later, I find myself ready to punch the next asshole asking for a several hundred-dollar handout.
So!
Despite my previous statements about anxiety in producing commissioned artwork, I'm basically telling myself tough titties. If you people want some commissions, I am taking them now. Because believe me, however much it makes me mewl to feel the pressure of capitalism, it annoys me much more to eat noodles for lunch at work- that alone ensures you will get a picture out of me. :)
I am taking up to eight of these things! First come, first serve! Be the envy of your imaginary friend and own a piece of indentured servitude!
Sketch: $15
Color: $30
Each additional character (up to two): $10

Creeping Crazy and Bayonetta (Venting)
Posted 16 years agoBitching about mental illness ahead. I also talk about a new video game further down, so reading one or both is your call.
When I first contracted the Crazy that is paranoid schizophrenia- I was about twelve- my forays into it were paranoid delusions ("Fuck you Mom, I'm a robot and you're hiding it from me, everyone is!") and episodic hallucinations ("Why am I in this ditch? The last thing I remember was running across Skull Lake to get away from the indescribable ungeometric horror."). These could be completely unprovoked, or 'triggered' by certain things- for example, only today have I been able to again play the game Final Fantasy VII, because certain riffs in the music caused me to descend into darkly violent misanthropy for no explainable reason. Multiply this trigger list by half of what I experienced as a teenager, and you've got a small portrait of what I've had to overcome.
Now, over the years, these episodes have died down severely in severity, length and frequency. This was a source of unimaginable relief to me- sure, eventually I'll be a sputtering mess, but getting a reprieve like this is a second lease on life! I can smell coconut shampoo without feeling like I'm trapped in a murder maze, look at my old children's books without seeing looming peripheral specters, walk through the dark without becoming gripped with panic... hell, I'm even playing through good old Final Fantasy VII again, and the only misanthropy I feel is at whoever thought it was a good idea to make all the world-traveling sprites look like bobblehead dolls!
And then the sensory hallucinations started coming, and shit all over my fun by annoying me and worrying me uselessly. I started smelling gasoline for days at a time, feeling the sensation of phantom fingers rubbing against my ribs, tasting marshmallow cream cookies- which sounds okay, except those make me nauseous. So instead of clearly doing shit that makes me know I'm hallucinating after the fact (as a reminder, the whole point is that I can't tell during or it wouldn't bother me half as much), it's fucking with me in ways that just aggrivate me and make me worry that other, worse shit might be coming. Of course, it's useless to worry about such a thing, but tell that to the old fight-or-flight, eh? Ah, well. Such is life, I guess.
-Bayonetta-
-is awesome. I took a look at the screenshots of this game and said, "Wow, this looks ridiculously retarded." Now I'm thankful that I listened to the reviews and my boyfriend, and actually bothered to rent the game. It's what Devil May Cry wanted to grow up to be. It's the kind of make-you-feel-badass-for-having-skills that God Hand cultivated so well. It's the kind of schlock that you can't help but laugh at. I recommend it- just don't take it seriously. :)

You know, I use the My Pictures screensaver to display pictures from my Drawings folder on a big cycle. This helps motivate me by showing me how my artwork has evolved over time, and reminding me of past projects I had fun with.
But something I've noticed as well, is the fact that... wow, I've got a crapton of unfinished drawings. And a lot of them aren't even all that unfinished, just... I never did the last step and gave them that extra touch. Maybe due to laziness, or dissatisfaction with the overall execution.
But my main question is this: Should I upload these things to my scraps gallery? I'd probably want to do it pretty much all at once, so there'd be some flooding. Let me know what you think.
