A quick update
Posted a year agoHello everyone, I need to vent about something.
Nothing inherently bad or sad, just kind of annoying.
My stance on Furaffinity is that's it's a good social but it's also very "gated", this is a furry social first and foremost. That's why I always saw Twitter as the go to social to grow as an artist, there's a broader group of different people, and that's why I also upload my art there. A few months ago however I got shadow banned. This was something new for me, so when I started to notice it's effect I got very demotivated, and I still am. Less likes, retweets, follows and comments. This truly hurts my will to draw. I may sound selfish but I'm a human. I draw for myself but I also enjoy sharing my passions and art with others, to socialize with new people about stuff I like. That has been taken away from me on Twitter, THE platform where to make it big. It's really killing my will to draw, that's mostly why I'm not uploading a lot. Not to mention all that mess with Patreon and Gumroad nuking NSFW accounts. It almost feels like there are less and less safe spaces for us, and the ones we have are too small or niche. I'm still giving a chance to these places because why not.
All this stuff just to let you know that I have made a Linktree with different socials and alternatives where to find me. I really like Telegram honestly but they are all very good. I'd just like to feel a bit less isolated.

Thank you for reading my mess, and have a safe day.

Happy 2023 to everyone!
Posted 3 years agoHello! It's Ougon with a very late Happy Holidays to everyone and right on time to wish y'all a happy 2023! It's been a wild ride, I started this journey about a year and a half ago and I met so many amazing people that helped getting me where I am right now, so I wanted to thank you all for supporting me for so long!
I hope that, as the year go by, my art will slowly and steadily get better, so I can bring more quality drawing to you, so stay tuned this 2023!
I really can't put on words how much your support helped me without repeating myself, so I'll leave it at that. Have a great, last day of 2022 and to a bright future this 2023!
(Also, commissions are still open so if you'd like to support me with a drawing, that would be awesome! And finally, I'm usually more active on Twitter, so if you want to join me there here's the link: https://twitter.com/OugonMage?t=c37.....QEdwg&s=09)
This journal's song is Fire Treasure from Lupin the Third - Castle of Cagliostro: https://youtu.be/E63eW8M_LvI

Commissions Open!
Posted 3 years agoHello there, long time no see! I'm opening commissions right now, I won't probably work on more than four commissions at the time but I'll be sure to have a waiting list! You can contact me here or in my Twitter account!
Commissions closed! [For now!]
Posted 3 years agoHello there! I'm closing commissions for just a short period of time, I'm still taking the last few commissions I had on the notes and then taking a short break from commissions! Thank you everyone from the bottom of my heart for the overwhelming support! I'm amazed by how many people supported me and I feel so honored to be the one y'all chose!
Have a good day everyone!
And, as per usual, here's a cool song I'm listening right now: https://youtu.be/LdMCVDGOdUc

Opening Commissions
Posted 3 years agoHello everyone, I just wanted to let y'all know that I'm opening commissions! I already did open commissions a week ago via Twitter as a test of some sort, which went pretty smooth. Everyone was very kind and I hope they enjoyed my work on their characters. This time I'm trying with a Waiting List that I'll keep updated here on my FurAffinity bio, hope everything will work well.
That's more or less it for now, thank you for your patience and I hope you have a good day!
... I don't have much else to say, but here's a cool track from a cool visual novel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xTmXbXJjxdY

Opened a Paypal account for tips!
Posted 4 years agoHello everyone, sorry to bother anyone with this journal, and excuse me for my bad english, I hope everything is comprensible at least!
I just wanted to let everyone know that I've opened a Paypal account and the Shinies Tips section. While I don't oblige anyone to support me, I would really appreciate it!
Supporting me would help me acquire more advanced tools for drawing, right now my PC setup is a weird mess lmao, maybe one day I'll also open some commission slots, right now I'm still not very confident with my art, and I'm trying to use all my spare time to improve, hopefully one day my commitment will pay off and I'll make better stuff for you all to enjoy. Also, if you like my art, consider supporting me on Twitter, you can find me at https://twitter.com/OugonMage
I think I'll use this journal function sometimes to vent on stuff or to talk about future projects and stuff that I enjoy. Besides that, I hope you have a good day and see you next time with a new drawing!
[PS. Has anybody seen the new Arcane series on Netflix? I don't even play League of Legends but that show is really awesome, animation is pure eye candy and the score is a bop, go check it out!]
