Why the sporradic Activity
Posted 11 years agoHey all, I just wanted to.....express why you guys kinda see me do my own art, and do my journals sporadically from time to time. Part of it is I'm starting to feel.....both internal conflict and depression. The Depression stems from a bunch of things in my life, and part of it involves, being alone most of the time and feeling like there's not much for me to do outside of academia. That being said the reason I don't upload things a good portion of the time, and why I don't draw even though I eventually wanna be more then just the amateur artist that I am has to do with school. School work is cutting into my own time, and ability to do things, so I may be sporadic with the uploading.
Part of the reason I'm saying this now is I want to commit to the Furry Fandom, I really do, moreso then my desire to keep doing genetic studies and get my BS in genetics, I'm at a crossroads now as to wether or not I wanna keep going, even though I'm almost done with my sophomore year and am basically half way there. I need...something in my life....I don't know what it is, but I need a motivator... a drive, something to push me further and inspire me...and I'm just kind of falling short on that thing...anyway, sorry if I wasted your time with this journal, I just figured I'd let y'all know why there are points when I draw lots, then weeks when I draw almost nothing.

First Fur Meet a Success
Posted 11 years agoHey all, I know I haven't posted journals regularly and I haven't posted updated pics in a while, and honestly it has to do with the fact that inspiration has been waxing and waning for me, this is going to be a tough quarter for college, and work is starting to pile up, so...I've had a lack of inspiration as of late.
Most of that changed however when I went to an Inland Empire Furry Meet at a nearby Cici's pizza. I talked to a lot of people, and ended up having quite a bit of fun, even if I was slow to start and a bit awkward at first. It's interesting how your perspective on the Furry Community can change after just a meeting, but I'll be doing my best to get back on the sketching as soon as I can.
Also if anyone from that group is on my watchlist as of now. I just wanted to ingratiate how thankful I am that you guys were so accommodating, while awkward at first, by the end of the meeting I can successfully say that I indeed felt more acceptance and more happiness towards being a furry~

Not sure weather or not to Leave FA
Posted 11 years agoIf I do leave FA it's not for the drama reasons that are involving the staff on the site. Quite the contrary I don't think any of it is my business and have apathy towards it. If I leave it will only be because of the actual user interface of Weasyl and such. I'm a fan of the organizational paradigm, coupled with the accoutrements of the user interface such as the folders, and such.
TMI Tuesday

First Con Evar~
Posted 12 years agoSo I signed up for Califur and all of the events that come with it. But I've hit a dilemma of sorts. I can't front all of the hotel room by myself and I will know no one when going to Califur to begin with. I was wondering if anyone wanted to share a room with me, I promise I'm not weird, and would be willing to split the cost of the room with 1-2 other people. Let me know what anyone thinks, or if there's anyone vaguely interested.
Art to be uploaded/still taking requests/Species Prefs
Posted 12 years agoHey all, sorry I've been under the radar this last week, I've been busy with school and whatnot. Turns out I'm going to be much busier then I thought this quarter X.X as a result I don't know how much art I'll be able to do, which kinda sucks but....oh well.
Anyway, So far I've got one more piece of art I need to do before I take on another series of requests and gift art I'll be uploading the art I've yet to upload right now. That being said, I am taking requests, I prefer if you have ref sheets but they aren't required. If you look at my work when I do refs, and when I don't have refs, the work is like night and day.
All that aside, on a more whimsical note, what's a species you think is underdone? Or a species that you'd hope to see more of?

Signal boost:Help the Sakai Family, they've done much for us
Posted 12 years agoStan Sakai is facing tens, if not hundreds of thousands of dollars in medical bills to care for his wife, who is suffering from a long-term illness. As if this was not enough heartbreak, yesterday came the news that his 20-month-old grandson passed away in his sleep.
Stan has done more than just about anyone to promote our Fandom. He has stood behind us, defended us, and helped introduce us to a skeptical mainstream. Furry Fandom could not have come this far without him. There is nothing we can do to ease the pain of his loss, but we can do our part to help take his mind off of the worries of the mounting bills so that he and his family can deal with this terrible tragedy.
The Comic Art Professional Society is collecting donations for the Sakais. If you would like to help, there is a Paypal link at http://garageartstudio.blogspot.com.....tan-sakai.html
[Above Copied from Uncle Kage's journal at http://www.furaffinity.net/journal/5368976/ ]
If you wish to send original artwork to be auctioned to help please see: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/12376881/
In addition to that, I'd like to help by doing some streams in the near future where all proceeds will go help so be on the lookout for those.

Art Work on Hold for a bit
Posted 12 years agoSo as you may have noticed I've stopped making art work, this is because I'm kind of tired of using a free app on my Ipad that has only one thickness to draw specific images. I'm looking to buy a tablet, and start really drawing and becoming an artist in the community.
That being said My absolute Budget is 200$. I do enjoy a good product, however lower is better, if anyone has any brands to recommend, or any links to give, it would be much appreciated and I'll look forward to drawing again.

Memory of a Lost Family Member
Posted 12 years agoI know I don't usually post things that talk about my current issues IRL but this is something I promised myself I'd always share through any medium. This is the 6th year anniversary of my cousin passing away, due to gang violence. I know that I've spent years blaming myself for this, I've gone through therapy for this, and I can honestly say insofar as I spread peace and non violence, his death is not in vain, insofar as I remember his death and remember the values he spread upon this earth his death will not be in vain.
For those of you in the area I do celebrate Dia De los Muertos, the Mexican Day of the Dead holiday on november 1st and 2nd. The purpose of this holiday is one that I've alway grown up with, the idea that the dead are only truly gone if you forget them, and that they live within us. Many people myself included create offerings, that we place on "Altars" with many candles and such, This year will be no different for me, and I always use this holiday to remember those passed to us.
I know for a fact all people have someone close that they've lost at some point or another, or if not, they can empathize with many people that have lost someone. That being said I will be at UC Riverside creating an "Altar" for him as I do every year, this year it'll be around university avenue. You usually see many other people of hispanic heritage doing the same thing, and if anyone's in the area at the time it would mean a lot to me if they could come. While it's customary to keep the altar to family members only, I never mind telling people about my cousin Phillipe, my uncle Roberto, and my grandmother Ignacia.

*DC's Current Comic Predicament Explained
Posted 12 years agoSo, as I put it on my facebook status "Marvel Fans typically hate DC fans, but right now I think DC hate's their Vice president of Editorials Dan Didio more then anyone else"
Many of you may have heard of Harley Quinn's "Suicide" contest http://www.escapistmagazine.com/new.....Artist-Contest
To be frank some people have reacted in uproar to this saying it romanticizes suicide, while I think it does in fact sexualize suicide based on the images that are asking to be drawn, I personally think it's a a very dark story regarding Harley's rejection of the Joker, and her method of coping as a result.
The fact that the Joker within the storyline of "Death of the Family" told her she was unimportant to him, a tool, and admitted to be willing to carve her face if it meant he would have another chance to see batman again, only further drove her away, when Batman found her she basically said "I'm out" giving him the Joker's whereabouts, yet not revealing the plan, as he hadn't revealed it to her. Her ending comments are on how the joker has changed, he's not the same, and he loves no one, how he's obsessed with Vengeance now, which is seen as he does things seen as "Off Limits" i.e. attacking Alfred Pennyworth and pouring ammonia into his eyes.
Quite frankly I think adding Harley's death would only add to the argument made for the futility of suicide, considering that after the death of 10 year old Damian wayne, the latest robin, while most if not all "Bat Family" members where affected and depressed, a few contemplating Suicide, the futility of doing so was eventually brought up by one of the characters, that being said I don't believe Harley's suicide would serve to "Romantisize" suicide, but it would definitely sexualize it, which is something I do not in any way shape or form support, Dan Didio needs to be fired, but that's another rant, for another time.
The last thing I want to talk about is people bitching about altered Romances and love interests in the new 52. I think that ships being denied in the DC universe, (Lois Lane x Superman being replaced with Superman x Wonderwoman, Batgirl not allowed to get with her lesbian lover, Iris West x Barry Allen being replaced with Barry Allen x Patty Spivot) is something that is meant to make the reader feel a certain form of anxiety. I have been keeping up with the FLash in the new 52, and while frankly I've shipped Iris West and Barry Allen since they first got together, they're a couple that just works. Seeing Barry Dating Patty Spivot sort of made me go "What?!?!?!?" As a result I've held onto and treasured that initial relationship more, seeing as I took it for granted. That's more or less what I think regarding new and broken romances in the new 52
Although to be fair, if you check tumblr you will see lots of Hate regarding Dan Didio, to be honest, that's one of the reasons why I think The Flash is one of the better comics of the new 52, the writers have been "Known" not to listen to Dan Didio's imput.
I'm actually interested in how "Forever Evil" turns out, after reading the first installment this is the first time DC has done a DC Universe wide, cannon event. It's actually why instead of hero comics this month there are Villain comics, the fact of the matter is, going into villain development isn't something I had a problem with and DC is using Forever Evil as a device to do so.
*Spoiler Alert Do not read if you plan on reading Forever Evil*
The fact that the comic is predicated around the Crime Syndicate saying "The Justice League is dead, the world is ours", providing evidence of such (Aquaman's trident, Superman's Cape, Wonder Woman's lasso) only to leave the villains of the DC universe still says something. The reference to other "Lesser Superheros" (The Teen Titans, etc. etc.) still being alive means something is ultimately going to be done. I find it interesting the the Crime Syndicate's actions are so blatantly in everyone's face, that the last panel is Lex Luthor looking at Ultraman, causing an eclipse only to ask "Where is Superman?!?" says that there's at least going to be further hinting on how the villains are actually mentally reliant on the Justice League, I can't help but feel this is sort of an issue regarding "Darkness needs Light in order to exist" in the sense that without the Justice League, well what gives the villains purpose? Lex Luthor's purpose was to prove he was in fact the best, better then superman, a man who wanted to be better then all, with superman out of the picture where does that leave him?
Again this is just all speculation, I am a DC fan, but there are still things that they're doing that I don't support.
Many of you may have heard of Harley Quinn's "Suicide" contest http://www.escapistmagazine.com/new.....Artist-Contest
To be frank some people have reacted in uproar to this saying it romanticizes suicide, while I think it does in fact sexualize suicide based on the images that are asking to be drawn, I personally think it's a a very dark story regarding Harley's rejection of the Joker, and her method of coping as a result.
The fact that the Joker within the storyline of "Death of the Family" told her she was unimportant to him, a tool, and admitted to be willing to carve her face if it meant he would have another chance to see batman again, only further drove her away, when Batman found her she basically said "I'm out" giving him the Joker's whereabouts, yet not revealing the plan, as he hadn't revealed it to her. Her ending comments are on how the joker has changed, he's not the same, and he loves no one, how he's obsessed with Vengeance now, which is seen as he does things seen as "Off Limits" i.e. attacking Alfred Pennyworth and pouring ammonia into his eyes.
Quite frankly I think adding Harley's death would only add to the argument made for the futility of suicide, considering that after the death of 10 year old Damian wayne, the latest robin, while most if not all "Bat Family" members where affected and depressed, a few contemplating Suicide, the futility of doing so was eventually brought up by one of the characters, that being said I don't believe Harley's suicide would serve to "Romantisize" suicide, but it would definitely sexualize it, which is something I do not in any way shape or form support, Dan Didio needs to be fired, but that's another rant, for another time.
The last thing I want to talk about is people bitching about altered Romances and love interests in the new 52. I think that ships being denied in the DC universe, (Lois Lane x Superman being replaced with Superman x Wonderwoman, Batgirl not allowed to get with her lesbian lover, Iris West x Barry Allen being replaced with Barry Allen x Patty Spivot) is something that is meant to make the reader feel a certain form of anxiety.
