Since I haven't done one of these in a while and I need one more character for a four piece sculpture I am looking for someone who likes playing video games and isn't afraid of showing (and being exposed to) a fair bit of bare skin. Players so far are Luna the red fox (on a winning streak), Clea the cheetah (down to her unmentionables) and an even unluckier unnamed egyptian (?) deer (I wanted to try egyptian hairstyle and makeup but it looks a bit weird on a deer...still pretty though) ^^

So, if you're interested leave a comment with a reference to (or description of) your character and how you would like your character to fare (maybe another victim for Luna's mad skills (or possibly pregnancy hormone induced rush) or maybe the one to finally end her streak ;)
You can also suggest a game (I think I gave everyone Xbox controllers) or I'll simply assume they're playing Halo (basicly the only Xbox game I can think of...I don't actually own any consoles :)

The Raffle ends on Wednesday, 28th of September.

Addendum: come to think of it I might actually add more than just one character depending on time, interest and inspiration :D

I have asked TIME and TIME has decided (since common random number generators are merely strongly fluctuating mathematical functions that first take a seed and then their own output as new input and since in many applications RNGs take the time/date as seed, the winners are not actually determined by random chance rather than time...but then again one might also say that as a result the deciding factor is the time at which I use the RNG for the first time. Therefore, if the RNG's output depends on my actions and timing and if one believes in the unpredetermination of our existence (meaning something like: even if you were to know everything about the whole universe at one point in time you still couldn't predict any future points with a 100% certainty), the result would actually be truly random)

Anyways...^^

The winner of the raffle is:  avernakis77
Second prize goes to  pieman24601

Congratulations to the winners and a thank-you, a handshake, a kiss on the cheeks and a slap on the buns for everyone else for participating :D

A while ago I had a raffle for Sabi but now it's Luna's turn (and later I'll do one for Carmen), so here's the deal:

- You're watching me, you like my artwork and you want to see your character made out of clay (duh, why else would you want to participate in this raffle anyways ;)
- If you wish to enter this raffle leave a comment on this journal stating your desire to participate.
- The winner may request anything SFW or NSFW (within the limits of my skills...I'm not a magician after all^^) involving one of their characters doing stuff to/having fun with/being on the recieving end of fun stuff done by my Luna. Fair warning though: while not yet showing she is pregnant and may or may not suffer from accute increased/decreased sexual desires, sudden mood swings, sleepiness, extreme emotions, weird cravings (a chocolate donut wrapped in fried bacon stuffed inside a turkey with cranberry sauce and gravy alongside a gallon of grapefruit juice sweetened with maple syrup) and uncontrollable urges to hug and kiss anyone who ventures too close ;P
- As clay doesn't grow on trees and bigger characters require more of it the maximum size of allowed characters is 9ft.
- Also I can't do extensively striped creatures (a couple of stripes are no problem but animals like tigers, zebras are beyond my abilities).
- For fun I'll be drawing two numbers and while the first winner gets to decide what to do with Luna (as explained above), the second winner will still get a kiss as a consolation prize (http://www.furaffinity.net/view/16153252/) :>
- Raffle ends on Thursday, April 2nd.
-I also won't send out any figurines (sorry).

So to recap: watch me, comment to participate, winner may request anything involving one character (max 9ft, not to many stripes) and Luna

...or so the 'International Lottery, Johannisburg Division, South Africa' would like me to believe. Huh, I was kind of disappointed that it wasn't about me being related to some rich and recently deceased African monarch but I guess we can't all have rich, royal and recently deceased African relatives... :^)

Anyways, so far Luna in harem pants is looking pretty good and while instead of throwing her at someone I decided to have her pose dressed in pants and a veil (and a whole lot of nothing else +/- some jewellery), I think I wanna do a raffle after this one :)

Going out on an errand today I accidentally left two hours early (in my excitement I must have misread the opening and closing times of my destination). So, remembering my dwindling supplies of orange and red clay (*winks at * ;) I promptly went to the closest art supplies shop (well, it was actually a three quarters of an hour walk but after all I had some time to kill :) and browsed their selections of coloured clay. Beside the orange and red I came for I also bought three more intriguing colors: gold, silver and metallic ruby. I'm especially excited about the last one: I can just picture my Luna with metallic ruby and white (mixed with a little metallic pearl) fur in a pure metallic pearl dress with gold and silver trimmings, she'll be all glitter and sparkle and look positively regal :D

...I had five pairs of hands and eyes, five brains and...oh, just make it five bodies instead of just one. From the comments on my last submission alone I already got three new ideas for figurines, add to that what I come up with all by myself while staring blankly into space and don't get me started on all the inspiration I get from just looking at the furaffinity index page (all those amazing drawings that I would like to try to replicate with clay, all those interesting characters, avatars and fursonas that I imagine would make such beautiful figurines...)
Alas, never enough time (or clay :)...
Anyways, just feeling like hugging the world but since my arms aren't nearly long enough (I've tried and barely managed 1.6m (5.2ft)) instead I want to thank everyone who ever inspired me and everyone who hasn't but instead inspired someone else and everyone who never inspired anyone but by merely existing already has the potential to be an inspiration to someone.
Ok, now I really better stop before the sarcastic half of my mind starts chucking stones at the happy half for being so sunshiny optimistic^^

Next up, a big redhaired vixen and two cubs ;D

If got about 4 1/2 of the 5 players finished (still need to work on Chris by and his cards) but now I realize I inadvertently positioned the characters as if there were six seats at the table...
...which, however, poses no problem since I was already thinking about putting in a dealer anyway^^

...the dominos fall and only one remains standing,  grendelair, congratulations ^.^

Thank you, everyone else, for participating (after all, the more participants the more exciting the raffle :)

The players at the table:
- Luna (mine)
- Chris ( pieman24601)
- Marius ( muq)
- Allie ( bigallie)
- Bunners ( grendelair)
If any of you guys/gals wants to switch characters now's the time to tell me^^

Note: I actually ment to post this journal a few hours ago but while I was writing site maintainance started and I couldn't submit it anymore^^

To celebrate the new year naughty Luna has decided to organize a game of strip poker and invite some friends (her plan to get them out of there clothes,however, has pretty much backfired, but more about that later...^^)
With four players ( pieman24601,  muq,  bigallie and Luna herself) still one empty seat remains (and now you can probably guess what this raffle is about :)

Rules: participants should at least be watching me (but why would you want to participate if you're not interested in my artwork anyway? :) the winner of the raffle will be determined by RNG; winner gets to put one character of his/her choosing at the table (no completely striped characters, though...sorry, but simply can't do zebras, tigers, etc); character size is limited to minimum 5ft (~1.5m) and maximum 9ft (~2.8m) or if I simply don't have enough clay (in which case I may have to shrink your character down a bit) winner may also decide how lucky/unlucky (how much clothing left^^) said character will be.
The raffle ends on Jan 10th.
If you've read, understood and accepted the rules above and want to participate leave a comment with a reference to the character you want at the table and tell me what you think came first (or pick one at random if you've never thought about it and don't want to now): hen or egg? (no explanation why necessary)

(very) rough preview: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/15406073

Well, will you look at that... muq (the lucky bastard ;) won once again (as determined by a random integer numbers generator...not that any of my female characters have complained about his well endowed reynard yet (except for Sabi, but that one was after a drunk night out and therefore her own fault^^))

Also, due to the small number of participants I'm thinking of doing a little something something for the other two as well (looking at the provided refs I really want to try their characters (again), though, it'll have to wait for quite some time since I've already get one or two other figurines planned after Marius () and the cow :)

After rethinking the complete code responsible for triggering the right animation for the right keyboard/mouse input I ended up having to redo about 30 Animations (fortunately not all from scratch :) and add another 40 new ones (mostly it's three animation for one action: doing something while standing/walking forwards/walking backwards)...but once that's done I can move on to drawing backgrounds, items, equipment, etc (while I may not be particularly good at drawing at least it's not as doing animations in triplicate) ^^

In unrelated news, I haven't forgotten about Carmen's newborn cubs...just been busy animating or following other spontaneous inspirations :>

Recently I've been working less and less on figurines and instead more on animating the hell outta Luna ^.^
With three different sets of sprites I can now make her stand still, walk, sneak, run, crouch, crawl, jump, fall, drop dead, get knocked down, stand up again, aim and shoot a bow (while standing still or walking).
I've still got quite a few more to do: climbing, hanging of a cliff, casting spells, fighting with sword and shield, that kind of stuff.
By now you may have guessed what I'm working on... :o)

P.S.: ...if not, it's a RP/Jump 'n' Run/Hack 'n' Slash game xP

...the number three! Thus concludes the current raffle.

Congratulations,  ceramicfox :)

It has only been less than a month since I registered at FA but I like to think I improved my artwork in this short time by more than in the whole last year. To all those watching, favoring, commenting or even just looking at my art: your support inspired and motivated me to try all kinds of new figurines, experiment with new techniques and mix new colours (the last one being kind of a great deal for me since clay doesn't grow on trees and any failed attempts usually waste a lot of white clay; almost down to my last roll of white while for example there's still more than 3/4 of orange left on the first roll).
So once again: thank you :)

Not so sure what to write into this journal but I guess I'll just write down some things that come to mind.
I've just finished the Wedding scene and though it was quite a lot of fun I am also looking forward to work on some completely new andsome unfinished older pieces. Right now I'll give Spaz (from "Jazz Jackrabbit 2") a try. Next up I'll finish Alma and Zandria (from "Quest for Fun" by Federico and Serena) and Gloril (from "Vixine" by Martin A. Day and Federico Panella). Also thinking about giving Buford, Gonad and Asheer (all characters from "Vixine") a try. Maybe try some more rabbits/hares. Perhaps experiment with some different hairstyles. Want to try a nightelf archer (from "Warcraft III"). Finally find some way to do cat and feline faces. Look more into dinosaur/lizzard/reptile/dragon faces...

Ah...so many things to do yet so little daytime^^
