Hey everyone, quick disclaimer since this happens a lot.

My name is VT, Vincent Taylor. Online aliases, VT-Scribbles and Nyum-nums.

Many of you know the lovely artist, TARTII. Also known as NUMMYNUMZ.

 nummynumz =///DOES NOT EQUAL///=  nyum-nums

The similarities between our vore account names were accidental. I joined the community about four years ago, having not previously known who Tartii/Nummynumz was. There's been confusion before, but lately it's become an actual problem.

We are not the same person. I have drawn her gift art, I have drawn her old Tartiidrake, but we are not the same person. She'll be making a journal about this, too.
It's become a big problem as of this Iron Artist, where lots of people have mistaken me for her, expecting her artwork.
Let me line up some pieces for comparisons, just so we can lay this to rest.

Here it is, a comprehensive guide/cheatsheet to who is who.

Tartii's work: More shaded pieces, more of a 'disney-esque' style, far more reptiles, recognizable sonas/characters, softer shading style

I understand the genuine confusion over our names, but I put a lot of examples of my work into the application, and repeated my usernames many times to try and avoid confusion. If I could change my FA username, I would. But I can't, and I can't afford a mass exodus to a new name right now, right before a move. So, here's this guide to try and help identify who is who.

‘Thank You’ comic will be voted on by participants of the event, and will be drawn at a later date as a reward for everyone’s support.

LET’S-A-GO-
The Iron Artist event has officially begun! I’m moving out for the first time the first week of July. This, paired with unexpected car repairs, has put me in need of a substantial amount of income. My gallery needs more new art and more varied characters, you all deserve some discounted commissions, and I needed an excuse to livestream more.

Event updates [Streams, days off, work days, etc.]: https://twitter.com/Kink_Mink [WARNING, NSFW]

$20- Messy Ballpoint Sketch
$35- Shaded & Cleaned Ballpoint Sketch [Includes 2 characters for price]
[Headshot examples of which you can see here for both ‘Messy Sketches’ and ‘Clean & Shaded Sketches’: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/22831252/ ]
$40- Lineart
Options offered: Different dynamic angles, adding extra characters, anonymous commissions, unposted commissions, streaming/no streaming, commissions for people with no characters, and others.
Additional characters are extra per. All commissions ordered in this event may be upgraded with lines, color, shading, etc, after the event is over.

How to claim a slot:

Slots must be claimed through the Google Form I’ve designed, and will not be accepted through email.
All the form asks of the applicant is: Email, Username, reference image links, and description of the commission desired. Everything else is a check-box or a multiple-choice question. I’ve provided options for those who just have a vague idea and want to provide artistic freedom, all the way to those who want their description followed as closely as possible.
♤▼▼▼♤

APPLICATION FORM: https://goo.gl/forms/xSHuFrMPHcun5SJH3
NSFW APPLICATION FORM: https://goo.gl/forms/OsLsPUZk1RHVLfEA3

♤▲▲▲♤

Each application is for (1) commission, but slots are unlimited.
If you want to order a commission but have ANY questions or concerns about the application or Terms of Service therein, contact me with one of the methods on the first page. [Including Notes here on FA.]

No characters/OCs? No problem!

In the desire to make this event as open as possible, I’ve included an option for those without established/designed characters to still get a commission. [This is not for free designs. If you really like the design I make based on your description, you can purchase full rights to it after your commission is done for $30. [If I don’t choose to keep it myself] You can even upgrade it to color and turn it into a full design commission in July/August if you wish.]
Ex: “An anthro cat girl with long hair holding an anthro mouse boy with short hair and big ears.”
NOT: “My character Julia, who I don’t have a reference for yet. She’s an anthro kitsune with shortish straight hair, casual clothes, and five tails. She has three markings under her right eye, and four under her left eye-” These are not design commissions.

GOAL REWARDS

As an extra push to encourage people to order slots, I’m offering a reward comic for if/when we reach certain goals. It will [most likely] be a vore-centric comic with either one of my lads, or one of my ladies. It will be up to participants to vote on which. This comic unlocks at 50 slots, and gets upgraded at 75 and 100. If you want to see this comic come to life, share the event!

Even if you can’t order slots yourself, PLEASE share it around, send it to friends you think may be interested, etc! Every bit helps me move out next month, and will help me settle in as quickly as possible so I can get back to art quickly.

Questions or Concerns? Leave a comment here or send me a private Note.

This is the FINAL journal I will be posting before the official opening-journal a week from today, for my JUNE IRON ARTIST (2018)!

What you need to know:
Instead of Slots being claimed via email, which is slow, messy, and unreliable, claims will be made via a custom-made GOOGLE FORM. This application allows you to send me 100% of your commission details without waiting days for back-and-forth emails. It has multiple-choice questions that save you time on typing out/describing what you want, lets you link your references, gives you contact links to get ahold of me for questions, and sends you a copy at the end.

KEEP IN MIND: Slots cannot be claimed any other way. If your application is not filled out as instructed, I may ask you to re-fill it. Since you receive a copy of any application you submit, re-filling is as easy as copy-pasting what you originally sent, and then making the asked-for amendments. Ignoring my ToS will result in immediate denial.

The form will ask you to PROVIDE:
-A Valid Email, Username, and a code-name for marking your slots in the queue list.
-Character reference/additional reference links [They have to be links, either via FA, or an image-hosting site like Imgur.]
-Commission description

And that's all.
Everything else will be multiple-choice options. [Like choosing your price, if you want special camera angles, etc.]
The application in total should take you between 10-45 minutes, which is far faster than waiting days for us to go back and forth in emails.
You CAN order an unlimited amount of commissions. So long as you can afford them, you can claim them. However, each application only counts for one slot.

I've aimed to make this application the easiest, most helpful and comprehensive commission application possible. Should this prove to be more effective than email correspondence, I will use google forms in the future for regular commissions as well.

I will see you all in 1 week, keep an eye out for that opening journal!

BIG UPDATES:

Today I received confirmation that my best friend and I have tied-down our rental home! It was up in the air before, but we have a move-in date now, and I have my initial monthly costs I have to make.

I'll be receiving the keys to my first house on July 4th.

Finally getting out of my parents' place is going to be huge. I will be able to dedicate my full time to nothing but art, outside of caring for myself and Alfred. I aim to update my Patreon more often, get commissions done more quickly, and work on more personal projects.

With this update, June's IRON ARTIST has become my top priority. I have to have at least $4,000 in my pocket before the first week of July [$5,500 preferably, for a cushion/fixing some big issues with my car].
As a reminder, I will be taking 100 fullbody sketch slots for the month of June, and I will be LIVESTREAMING these commissions! If you order something during June's IA, you will get to either watch your comm being drawn live, or you'll be able to watch a recording, should you miss the streams. I'm still mulling over prices, but the comms will likely be a flat price of $30-35 for a normal sketch, and $45 for vore sketches! I'll have full examples and a formal announcement next week, showing what you can expect from the commissions. If you feel generous, I'll also be taking donations during stream through Ko-fi. Every $3 helps.
And, as a treat for reading this far, some NEW information on the Iron Artist: I will be adding EXTRA rewards and gifts for reaching certain #'s of claimed slots. Something super extra special will happen if I fill 75, or even 100 slots.~ There sure is a lack of vore comics in my gallery... isn't there? Sure would be nice to... fix that.~

As another reminder, any commission ordered during the IA CAN be upgraded to lines, color, render, etc, after June.
Every commission will go directly towards my initial moving costs, food, and fixing my car. ANY extra will go into savings for future rent.

All of you are making this possible. Living away from my parents is something that I've needed for my mental health, but it always seemed impossibly out of reach. Any and all support you provide, whether it be through commissions, donations, showing your friends my work, etc, all of it helps. With this new horizon in sight, it's time to get serious about art.
No longer will I have conservative parents hovering over me, limiting when I can draw my niche content. No longer will I have to worry about running errands for everyone. No longer will I be pelted with 'when are you going to get a girlfriend/go back to college/get a REAL job'. You're going to see a big change here, and I know it will be for the better.

See you all next week.

Quick update for whom it may concern: Last week I fell ill with a nasty viral respiratory sickness. It has, unfortunately, left me sleepless [consistent cough], oxygen-deprived, and with a cough and case of pneumonia that doesn't plan on leaving any time soon. [Pneumonia for those who don't know is a buildup of fluid in the lungs that makes it v hard to get the proper amount of oxygen, and causes a lot of other complications.] As such, my queue may not be finished by the end of May. Any commissions that I do not finish before June 1st will have to be put ON HOLD for the June 1st-30th IRON ARTIST event.

Doctors say I should feel better by next month and the pneumonia will take a few weeks to clear up on its own. But, in the mean time, drawing is very difficult to do while going into coughing fits every ten minutes, and the quality suffers from sleep deprivation. All this to say, if I put off a commission or my work's quality takes a dip in May, please do forgive it, I haven't been this sick in years.

In other news, because of unexpected medical bills, unexpected car bills, and the move this fall, the Iron Artist is still FIRMLY scheduled to begin June 1st! Refer to this journal for more information.
http://www.furaffinity.net/journal/8667563/

The finalized info will be shared the week before the event starts. At the time, I will share stream schedules, final prices, and I will post up examples of the level of work you can expect from this IA event. Thank you in advance for any support, whether financial, or exposure via sharing the event. I will power through June, pneumonia or not, on the road to saving money for this move.

[Big important journal following, please take a moment to read!]

NEWS

Home: I am moving out between July-September of this year. We're planning on July, but we'll know by the end of May if that'll be the official date. This means that after the Iron Artist in June, I will be largely unavailable and busy. I aim to not have any out-standing commissions at that point, and commissions will not open until I'm settled at home later in the fall. Grab stuff in the Iron Artist if you want something!

FA Profile & Journal Header: To track my progress for Moving Funds, I'll be adding a portion to my profile and journal header. I'm aiming for $5.5k before the end of July, to have enough money for moving in, getting equipment for the rental place, the first two months' rent, and a new set of tires.

Income: Lastly, this is your friendly neighborhood reminder that I do have a PATREON!
https://www.patreon.com/nyumnums
https://www.patreon.com/nyumnums
https://www.patreon.com/nyumnums
I know, I know, don't tab out yet, I won't be long. It not only has tiers with art rewards and commission coupons, but there's currently an animated vore scene that I'm posting the progress on, there. Half of the shots are completed and posted, for your viewing pleasure at as low as $1 a month.~ Just today, I've added NEW possible rewards to the tiers, and I'm considering reducing the prices on two of the bigger tiers. If you have a scrap of extra finances a month and would like to put it towards something that'll give back, I'd appreciate any consideration.
Thank you in advance for any support. Everyone that's so generously commissioned me or subscribed to my Patreon art feed has been helping me through some strange months, and you've all been helping me save up for my first move out of this house. The more support I've gained on Patreon, the more time away from commissions I've had to draw for everyone. Should I reach my full-time goal, every day would be spent providing content for you all, and my commission prices would lower for everyone, among other things! So to anyone that spares some of their change each month, thank you so much. You're helping this ermine stay fed and sane.

SHOUT-OUTS

I want to give an especially big shout-out to not only my regular/big commissioners, but ANYONE that's pledged to the $5+ tiers on Patreon. Those pledges REALLY add up quickly, and they've given me room to breathe these past few months. Especially my bud Autumn, who's consistently been my top pledger and is so generously subscribed to my highest tier. Without your help the past few months dude, idk where I'd be.
A shout-out to Praexon as well, for commissioning my first ever vore scene, and providing me with my biggest commission to date. They've been appreciatively patient with me, because hand-drawn animation takes a lot of time and frankly, my schedule is a mess.
I would love to thank every single one of my regulars, and the people that have commissioned animation from me, but I'd be here all day and my memory is foggy. Also, I'd hate to make a big list of as many as I can remember, only to miss a few people. That feeling sucks! You guys know who you are. Thank you.

That's all for this big life/update journal, if you made it all the way to the end, thank you! I know it's easy to skip over these, so I appreciate it. :D

With a current list of about 5 commissions, 2 of which are animations, I currently have a short queue. Commissions are, at the moment, closed.

This summer/fall, I will be moving out of my current house and starting life with my best friend, Alfred.

Aside from animations I owe to projects, after those 5 comms are done, I'm completely open. With an empty queue AND an expensive move on the horizon... I am planning an Iron Artist this summer.

People who know what that is: skip to the line below this bit of text. For those that don't know what an Iron Artist is, it's when an artist, usually for fundraising/emergency purposes, opens 100 commission slots for a specific, quick-to-make commission type. They then gun-it to fill up 100 slots, to reach a financial goal. The turnaround on these commissions is supposed to be quick, the products are good value, and a customer is allowed to get AS MANY SLOTS as they want. That's my understanding of it, at least.

---

VT'S SUMMER 2018 IRON ARTIST PLANS:

Any of this is subject to change as the summer comes around [because I might have to get a part-time retail job].

If possible, all comms will be done LIVE, on an art stream.

I will be opening 100 commission slots at a baseline of $35 per slot. The commissions are Ballpoint Sketches [digital], which I have examples of here: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/22831252/ HOWEVER. These will be FULLBODIES, not just headshots. Ballpoint Sketches are loose, have a bit of line-weight to them like lineart, and usually have a bit of monotone 'shading' thrown in. Because they're a little more refined than rough sketches, they're priced appropriately.

-$15 per additional character [max of 3]
-$5 complexity surcharge [lots of detailed markings, jewelry, complex clothing, etc]
-$2 charge for each change asked for after sketch or during stream. [Not for 'mistakes,' only for things like the buyer changing their mind on what they asked for mid-sketch]
-If you want a vore pic, the baseline is $45.
-Any and all comms done during the iron artist will be eligible for upgrade at a later date if you wish to add lines, color, etc. [Within 4 months of completion. It is usually 3, but I will be vastly unavailable through mid-July to mid-August.]
-Unlimited slots per customer
-Iron artist will end at 100 comms, no exceptions
-MUST STILL FOLLOW MY T.O.S
-All comm discourse will have to take place via email. This will need to be thoroughly organized.
-Patreon discounts do NOT apply to the Iron Artist
-Absolutely no NSFW

---

I'll announce when the official start date will be when it gets closer, but know that this is on the horizon. Commissions will not be opening again until then, and probably not for a while after. So make sure if you want some cheap fullbodies, snatch some while you can!

Found a bunch of old art and commissions that I never posted here! All of it will be going up on my Patreon first over the next few months, and then they'll be posted here later on. Never realized how much art my account was missing, I'm so bad with keeping updated XD

Here's my Patreon if you want to see stuff ahead of time: https://www.patreon.com/nyumnums
Most things will go up here at a later date, but I might keep some stuff on Patreon if I don't want it posted here.

Just a random journal to thank everyone that's commissioned me in the past, and especially to anyone that's shown me gracious levels of patience.
Being short, I'm very aware I'm not the best artist out there! I'm not shabby, but I'm still growing and learning, and that includes learning how to professionally manage myself. As of recently, I finally started going to a mental health clinic, and I'm on the road to working on myself with professional help. Part of that process was finally getting back on some ADHD meds. I've had severe ADHD since I was a wee lad, and took meds until late high school. I went off of them for years, but it's finally gotten to the point where my income is suffering because of my condition.
If all goes well, I'll have a prescription by the end of this week.

That brings me to my final point: Thank you. To everyone especially in the last few months, I know I've been slower than usual. Granted I don't take payment until stuff is done, so nobody is out money, I know I can be doing better, and get things done quicker! I rarely match my estimated times, I'm bad at communicating from time to time, and even I'll admit, sometimes my work can be lackluster.
But, it's always better than it was a year ago.
I greatly appreciate all the patience you have given me as supporters of my work, and all of you have made living the impossible dream of making my art a career possible. So, thank you.
No account or business plugs, just. As a growing artist, I appreciate the time, patience, and room everyone's giving me to grow. I'm never quite content with where I am artistically, but that just means I'm always pushing myself further!

So, from the bottom of my heart, in honor of the years of art you've enabled, and the years to come,
Thank you.

Not from existence, but from any fetishistic content. I announced this on my blog a while back, but forgot to post it here. For personal reasons, I'm retiring any of my sonas, Human VT, Stoat, and VT Dragon from vore content, fetishistic size difference, and anything else of that nature.

Their replacements are mainly Kimeki and Runiko. Kimeki will be getting a minor revamp very soon, from a weasel to a mink, and Runiko has been fully designed and is taking VT Dragon's place. You can find their references here:
Kimeki [soon to be revamped]: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/22267682/
Runiko: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/24974191/

https://www.patreon.com/nyumnums
So yeah this is a thing now. >:O It's an add-on/side patreon for Vore and Fetish content! I'm currently not in a position where I NEED Patreon, but it's an investment I plan to try and grow over the years. It's my goal to make art and providing my audience with as much quality content as I can my full-time occupation. Patreon will help me do that. As of late, I haven't had the ability to work on much outside of commissions, which makes posting rare. I've even had to look at getting a side-job, which I know from experience would bring any and all art to a grinding halt. I hope to remedy that with this.

This is a TEST LAUNCH. That means some rewards and tiers can and will be tweaked after an initial test period to see if it's sustainable. If you have any feedback/suggestions, do let me know. I'm new to the whole Patreon scene and haven't had any feedback on what people do and don't like in their tiers.

[IF YOU PLEDGE TO A REWARD TIER, MAKE SURE YOU READ MY T.O.S AND CHECK PATREON FREQUENTLY. I cannot give you your rewards if you don't send them by the 15th of each month.]

So, whether you support me for the price of a soda each month, or you commission me, or show other forms of support, you're awesome. And thank you in advance.

That's right, my first FULLY animated YCH will be hosted very soon here. It'll feature a new character of mine, and she's excited to join in the fray. To all you micros out there, keep an eye out for this one.~ It'll go on for a week, and this is one of the few auctions where I'll have slightly more lenient rules on the bidding time limits. [I've had people get into bidding wars and just barely miss the time limit, but they continued bidding. I'll allow this on this one.]

I'm actually thinking about two animated YCH's hitting my shelves soon. One will be vore related, and is sort of a, well, spiritual successor to my last ''animated'' ych. Keep an eye out for that one too!

Everyone stay safe with all these storms going around, and make sure to make good choices during them. Don't go driving during floods, bulk up on food and water, over-prepare. Be safe, everyone.

Yo so long story short, I've been on a huge animation kick lately, and I need about $2k. Therefore, I'm planning an animated YCH or singular commission slot. Animations are not something I'm commonly open for, as they take dozens of hours of work. Most people can't afford that or aren't interested.
That being said, would anyone [who has a decent budget, because this wouldn't exactly be cheap] be interested in either
A: An animated Mawshot/possible POV vore animation with their character as the pred
B: An animated vore YCH with your tiny character as the prey
C: An animated vore YCH with your slightly bigger character as the prey [bigger throat bulges and all~]
D: An animated scene of up to 15 seconds in length, with auction tiers for lines, color, backgrounds, effects, etc. [This would be VER Y pricy and the most expensive/advanced of all the possibilities. I can't open this unless I was sure I'd have takers that'd bid.]
and lastly
E: Simple sleeping animations of a character. Three slots would be open to this, probably for a flat price arounnnnd $75-110 depending on the complexity of the character drawn. Lines and flat colors.

Feedback?

Just a short journal letting my watchers and people waiting on commissions know that I've been absent lately because my schedule has been completely packed with errands, events, cleaning, visiting fam, and party-prep. My sibling and I are graduating [High School and College with an Animation Degree, respectively], so things have been insane around here. If I owe you work, my apologies, I'll be delayed until around Monday, May 21st! I'm apartment-sitting for my other sister starting Monday or Tuesday, so I'll be working more around then.

3/4 of the slots are still at their starting bids! Check it out if you'd like a chance to be involved in this YCH! I might not have another 4-slot YCH for a long while, so get it while it's hot.~
ALSO a reminder that the X-ray YCH will be ending tomorrow at 10 pm EST! It's a fully-shaded picture, regardless of where bids get, so you may wanna get in on that!

The bidding's still pretty low for an animated YCH! If you get in now, you can snag this five-part colored gif!

So I haven't done this before, but as I'm moving into trying to improve myself as an artist and expand my freelance business, it's about time I start getting some opinions from the lot of you guys who take in my content. Now, the core of my work will always be 'whatever makes me happy to draw,' so don't worry about that. But I AM still a business and I need to take 'consumer' opinions into account.

Long and short of it, what would you like to see from me in the future?

Some ideas:
More vore content?
More Size Difference content?
Paws?
Paintings?
More things with Gatonaba?
More things with my OC's?

And then as a side-note, for those of you who buy YCH's, what kinds of YCH's would you like to see from me? I more or less just make them up as I go, so I'd like to get some feedback. Here's some stuff to spark some points of conversation/feedback:
Do you like/dislike YCH's with my OC's?
Do you like/dislike YCH's with my sonas? [Stoat, DragonVT, HumanVT?]
What sorts of YCH's would you like to see?
Perspective stuff, vore, size difference, simple poses to put your characters in? Other stuff?
Would you be more drawn to cheaper YCH's at lower artistic tiers, or ones with higher prices, but higher artistic tiers?
What's your opinion on multi-slot YCH's?

Don't feel like you HAVE to participate in this, but I will be taking suggestions seriously and looking everything over. If you'd like a voice in how things go from here, now's your best chance.

That all being said, this is not a request board. I will take ideas into account, but if you toss a bunch of YCH ideas at me, it doesn't mean I'll draw them! And if I do, they aren't claimed by the person who gives the idea.]

Cross-posting over on my main account here! I know there's quite a few of you that like my YCH's, especially of the vorish kind; so, I'm letting you all know that from this point on, there WILL be a lot of Gatonaba-exclusive YCH's over on my species account,  gatonabas ! Just today, I'll be posting at least six unique YCH's, including a comic page, a couple sequences, a multi-slot YCH, all over on my species account. One of the YCH's will go over on this account since it's not Gatonaba-specific. That being said, if you really want to keep on top of future YCH's, there will be a good half or so of my future ones that are hosted ONLY over on  gatonabas.

This account, for those who may be hesitant to watch, will mostly be, in order of most posts to least [roughly]:
-Vore Art of a soft/nonfatal variety
-Size Difference of a nonsexual/nonfatal variety
-YCH's of various types
-Adopts of my species, Gatonaba
-Character designs
-Adopts of the various creatures of Olmia [somewhat rare]
-Paintings of the world of Olmia

If you're a fan of my work and would like to see a lot more of my Giant/Tiny and Vore art, about half of it will be posted over on that account from here on out. I'm really invested in this world I've managed to create, and plan on doing a lot with it in the future. Check it out, give it a watch if you want to keep updated with it, and I'll see you around!

That's right, my secret little project is now live and in the open! I've been developing these little [not so little] guys for a few months now, and have been slaving away at them pretty much NONSTOP for the past few weeks! Gatonaba are cute little critters that look like a chimera of a cat, bat, and a snake. They live in a world of nature spirits, dragons, and elvish people that they're trying to co-exist with... with only little success.
This new account has two informational documents on the species, and the full document has info on Olmia, the world they and my other characters inhabit! [Aside from VT Stoat and Kimeki, though I'm thinking of giving Kimeki an alternate existence there.~]
This account will also host YCH's, Adoptables, and design auctions! If you like my work and would like to show your support, a watch or a peek at the species would be great.~ There's more to come on that account in the months to come, and I hope you'll find the content enjoyable. You can bet there'll be size difference and noms in the mix, it's in their nature.~

I'm so relieved to have this launched now after dozens of hours of work over the past few weeks, and I thank any of you for checking it out!

So some of you may have noticed that I haven't finished my 15-YCH set yet, and I thought it was high time I gave you all a quick update!
I'm currently finishing out college, and my final classes grabbed me by the damn shirt collar and bodyslammed me into the nearest wall with homework. I've had barely a moment's rest between school work, driving people in my family around [because recently my mother became unable to drive and needed me to be a taxi more or less], and my responsibilities with other things at home.

But that brings me to this journal. My final exam is next week, around the 14th, so after that, I'm set to graduate, and I'll finally be free. I absolutely still have the rest of my YCH set to finish, and a few commissions I've had delayed by school. My goal is to really start posting and making art more often after graduation, so be prepared for that!

This being said, if you'd like to see more of my artwork on other sites, [and you have any sort of interest in Steven Universe], go check out my tumblr, vt-scribbles.tumblr.com , or the fanfic that I'm co-writing with a friend, The Harvester! The-harvester.tumblr.com is where you'll find that.~ Both have bits of my art, though even then I haven't had time to draw too terribly much.

Either way, I'll be free by mid this month, and I greatly look forward to it. See you all on the other side of this gruling set of classes!

Just a quick update for you all, I do still plan on posting the other 8 of the YCH batch, but those are put on a couple-day hold since I'm busy with some other work-related responsibilities. I also might possibly do a small side-batch of sketch-tier-only ych's for those with a smaller budget, so keep an eye out for that as well.


And in other news, I now have TWO tablets for sale that I'm trying to get rid of. I have a new 13 inch tablet that I've been using since June, and the other two are obsolete now. One of them is my old 19 inch Yiynova tablet monitor, which you can read the specs on here: Yiynova 19 Inch Tablet monitor (Out of Stock)
It's got no scratches, all the original gear aside from the old pen, I believe [but I have a perfectly functioning new pen with it], and it's ready to sell whenever.
I'm dropping my original price down to a flat $250 for this 19 inch tablet. [Retail is $500] You do still have to cover the shipping yourself, though. It weighs about 9 pounds, I believe. Comes with a USB extension cord and a VGA extension cord, free of charge.

And the second one is my 10 inch yiynova tablet that you can read the specs on here: Yiynova 10.1 Inch Tablet monitor (Out of Stock)
It's got one small scratch and all the original gear. It's ready to sell whenever.
I'm asking for a flat $150 for this 10 inch tablet since it's a bit newer. [Retail is $340] You do still have to cover the shipping yourself, though. It weighs about 2-3.5 pounds, I believe.

Both of these tablets have served me well, but now that I have a new 13 inch tablet and a possible 10 inch one in the future, both of these older models are obsolete to me. I tried giving the small tablet to one of my artist friends but it didn't like their computer, and it doesn't play nice with SAI. So do keep that in mind! Otherwise, I'm up for selling either/both of these because they're just sitting around collecting dust, and I know I won't use either of them again. Note me if you're interested! I may take a best-offer sort of deal, if it sounds fair.

Just as an FYI to everyone interested, the auction with my dragonsona is currently standing at $61, and it ends tonight in 7.5 hours as of writing this. The auction will be closed off at 11:59 PM, so keep an eye on it! The flat-price YCH's are also going really fast, and I plan on releasing another batch of four tonight, so I'd keep an eye out for that too!
As far as the second upcoming auction goes, I might be planning a special format for it, so keep your eyes peeled for the Chester auction! It might be my first animated YCH ever, or I may stick to just a simple sequence. Depends on how much interest there'd be in an animated noms YCH. We'll see!
Otherwise, thank you everyone for the continued support, the YCH's are going well, and it's taken a reasonable portion out of the money I needed for the next few months! You're all awesome and I look forward to sharing more of my work with you.~

Heya everyone! I hope your day is going well, as I bring you a little update on what's to come.

I'm currently finishing up a small handful of owed commissions before I move into what'll probably a much bigger batch of YCH's than I normally post. I've been put in a very tough spot by my college financial aid center [who basically are cheating me out of $3,000 that I was counting on at the beginning of September] and I'm in dire need of finances I was supposed to have these next few months. I had planned on closing up commissions and auctions come September, but now I'm forced to do extra work. C'est la vie.

I won't be opening up regular commissions just yet, but I will be making a host of new YCH's and working on something secretly that I've been wanting to do for a long time. I can't speak on that quite yet, as I'm not sure how it'll go, but I miiiight be working on some species concepts that I've had rolling around for a few years [and a few months, in one of the cases. [[I'm working on 2 species at the same time]]]. Those won't show up for some time, but I hope to unveil them either late this year or next year.

That, and there's even a special collab YCH going on right now between  corriezodori and I that features Taramizutsune from Monster Hunter Generations! We're looking forward to working on it together and it'll be my first collab commission.~

That being the case, the YCH's I plan on hosting in the next month or so on my own account will vary from garden-variety YCH's with normal poses and such that'll be pretty cheap, to my usual brand of YCH with one or two slots and my own characters.
This time, I even plan on starring one of my recently acquired characters, Chester [A Zorgoia I made for the Autumn Goia batch, but I fell hard for him and I couldn't sell him. He's my second goia to date but certainly my favorite out of the two. I might be starring him in a YCH in the very near future, so if Goia preds are your thing, stick around.~ Otherwise there will be some run-of-the-mill Size difference YCH's, some vore ones, and ones of normal variety.

TL:DR; College cheated me out of $3,000 so I'll be doing a lot of YCH's in the next month or so and I'm also developing a couple species concepts of mine.  corriezodori and I are also currently doing a collab YCH of a Monster Hunter variety, so you should go check it out!

You guys'll like what's to come, and I'll see ya around real soon.~

HEYOOO so as some of you know, or many, in some cases,  corriezodori has a lovely species called Zorgoias, and she's allowed me to start designing some! Since I don't have any sort of Adopt crowd over on this account, she'll be hosting any auctions I have over on her account,  eachom ! For now, there's just three Autumn-inspired ones based on Pumpkin Spice Lattes, Bad Luck/Black Cat, and Fallen Leaves, but there's sure to be more in the future!
Check it out if you're interested uvu/
