hello hello! LONG TIME NO JOURNAL LOL

I'm so sorry for my long delay. things have been very busy! I hope everyone is doing well and staying healthy!

I'm making this quick journal to give a few updates!

First off, my comm table has been updated! emojis and bust/portraits are staying the same but my main table and comic/sequence table were in dire need of an update. the update was needed for a few reasons; Prices have changed to reflect improvements I've made to the quality of my work, in addition, names of the comm types have also been changed to make things clearer! the old names were a bit easy to mix up due to them being named really similar things, lol. general look of the table has been totally remade and simplified, with some more details being added all around to clarify things and make it easier to understand. everything is shiny and new now ^U^ The old chart was made a very long time ago (i think 6 years ago lmao) and was not made an editable format so it was a nightmare to change things on it, update the example pics etc, so finally i chose to remake it entirely into this new one. I think it better reflects what I do now, It's nicer on the eyes, plus is a bit more SFW so its easier to share around! Check them out if you're interested ^U^~!
heres some links!
https://www.furaffinity.net/view/31841903/
https://www.furaffinity.net/view/32218866/

I also wanted to say that I'm currently working through my queue. Fa isnt the only place i get work from so I've been all around LOL. I'm doing my best to get things done in a timely manner, so hopefully if all goes well, towards the end of next month I'll be able to open a few slots here on FA! I'd like to do that more often in general as well. I'll make another journal when the time gets closer so if you're interested, keep an eye out! :3

and lastly! I've been thinking about doing adoptables! I have a few sketches that I think are pretty cute and i think might be good to put up for adoption! Currently I've got some waterfowl girls and some sheep girls but i've got so many more ideas. would you guys be interested in that sort of thing? I love character design and have lots of fun ideas and themes for characters in my head that I'd love to draw up, so if thats something you guys would be interested in def let me know and I'll do my best to finish work on those faster ^U^!

WOO this is a big journal lol. Thats all that i had to say, just wanted to give my updates! again I hope everyone is doing well, stay safe and healthy! Thank you guys again so much for all your support over the years. I love drawing and i love being able to share my stuff with you all. while I dont always have time to reply to every comment i receive, know that I do read all your kind and funny and supportive comments and i appreciate them all so much! It really does make me happy that you guys enjoy what i do, and I'll do my best to keep making stuff that you guys can enjoy ^U^

Thanks you so much for reading, and hope you guys have a great rest of your day, or evening, or morning, or... whenever you read this LOL

hi guys i am making an update journal :>

just wanted to say that im gonna be reopening commissions very soon and also that ive changed the prices of a few things, the tables themselves have been updated with these changes so if you wanted to check them, you can find them in my gallery under the commission info folder!

If you're wondering why i've changed the prices of a few things its for a few reasons, but mostly because i think it is a fair increase for the improved quality of the work and the time that is spent on making the art, I hope that this is ok with everyone!
i've also changed the prices because as you might have noticed in my last couple posts I've started to switch over to digital linework rather than my usual traditional linework. the digital lines do take a bit more time to do but i think they make the artwork look a lot more clean and neat and give the images a much nicer quality! i hope you guys like this new style of linework :>!

thank you all so much again for all your support over the years! I really appreciate all your comments and I'm so glad you guys enjoy my work! I've been working on a personal project for the past several months thats been taking up almost all of my free time LOL so i thank you guys for your patience and understanding! I hope you guys have been doing well and staying safe and healthy ^O^ also it's almost spooky month.... the greatest month of all... talk to you guys again BOO-n!!!!
as in like... SOO-n but spooky like soon... why yes i am a comedy expert thank you for noticing

HI GUIES

I'm just making a fast journal to let everyone know im going to be replying to my comments and notes since i havent had much time to recently. I'm going to be reopening commissions very soon so im gonna be doing a bit of housekeeping here and there so ill be ready for my opening!

thats all for now, I'm gonna be making another, longer journal soon to actually reopen but until then i figured i ought to post this!

I hope you guys are all doing well and that you're all having a great spring! :^D

HELLO hi everyone i hope you've all been doing good since my last journal!

I'm moved into my new place now, im sorry that it took me a little longer than expected to return to FA after the move! I ended up having a lot of issues with my internet providers which resulted in me not having a stable/reliable internet connection for around 22 days, oof LOL

I finally got internet back though thank goodness so i'm back! I'll be continuing with my current queue of commissions so i'll be getting back to work :^) I'll also be uploading some stuff i drew while i didnt have internet after i post this journal too!

I have also also updated my commission tables with fresh new samples, new sequence types, and added information that will answer frequently asked questions :^)!
i have also made a slight price adjustment for the additional character fee of the "full colour with sketch outlines" category from 15 to 20 as i think the new price better fits with the amount of time these things usually take me. thats the only price adjustment i made so everything else is the same just with a fresh coat of paint!

I again apologize for my longer-than-expected absence haha ^w^"! but I'm glad to be back finally :^D!

Thank you guys again for all your patience and support ^v^

Hello everyone! i hope you've all been staying healthy and enjoying summer :>!

I've been a bit absent lately (my apologies!) and some of you might already know it is because i'm moving! again! LOL yeah my current place has a plethora of issues which include but are not limited to: constantly leaking ceiling and stairs, being freezing 24/7 all year round, and the presence of a worryingly high amount of arachnids, so i'm getting the hell outta here HAHAHA

I've been spending basically all my time for the last 2 weeks or so getting things sorted at my new place, so i apologize if i haven't been as easy to get ahold of lately! I will reply to everything eventually i just need a bit more time currently due to everything thats been going on :>

basically im making this journal to say that i will gone the rest of this week and presumably all of next week to move in and unpack so if you send me a message during this time and i dont reply immediately, dont worry i will answer soon i just need a bit more time :^) I also have a backlog of uploads to put up when i get back so i hope you guys will enjoy those :3!

I must peace out for now to keep packing but i hope you guys will stay safe and healthy!! and thank you guys again for your continued support and patience ^W^!

-Risotto

YOO hope you guys are doing well! I've been quite busy lately but i thought it'd be good to post this update thingy =w=

I've been getting a lot of questions about commissions lately and i am still closed currently but I'm hoping to be able to reopen soon! after several requests, my current queue has gotten a bit long while i prefer to keep it shorter so people dont have to wait as long for their turns. I am working diligently through my current list and once it is shortened significantly or finished i can reopen commissions again :^D

also, I've noticed recently that i've gotten some frequently asked questions about my commissions! taking this into account, i'm hoping to soon revamp/update and add more information/styles to my commission tables to answer these questions! ^v^ I'm hoping to get this done soon as well so look out for that in the near future :3

IN OTHER NEWS in my free time between commissions i have been working on a 9 page comic featuring my catguy Beckett. originally i was thinking having it up as a pay-to-read sort of thing but with all the craziness happening around the world lately i thought it would be nice to put it out for free instead so I'll be uploading it here when its finished ^v^ it will feature vore, m/m, oral, a bit of weight gain and general sex and stuff haha no estimated release date for this yet or anything since im just working on it whenever i have the time, but if you're into that stuff i hope you'll look forward to it ^v^!

thank you for reading! i hope everyone is staying safe and healthy out there, take care lads!
