Hey, I just wanted to thank you all for watching/following me. I am glad that you enjoy the content here or just interacting with me in general. I'm hoping to post more actively, and am in the process of honing my own personal art skills. That's more of a long term project but still, I hope it pays off. In the meantime, thank you all for everything, it really warms my heart in these troubling times.

Decided I would post my bluesky here, since everyone is headed away from twitter (for good reason). So if you're on bluesky as well, why not give me a follow? I do plan on posting more art on it too. I hope to see you all there.

So it's been a while since I have posted a journal, or a piece of art for that matter. (Actually one month isn't really long but I want to talk either way...). I figured I'd let you all know what's been going on with me.

I had been hit rather hard by depression last week. To the point where it was making my human body rather sick. I've improved since then thankfully. But I'm still dealing with other issues that have been around for quite some time. One being a rather troublesome issue of my job making me more exhausted than it probably should be, and being in a situation where it is difficult to move out from it.

After the rather volatile bout of depression on my human form. I ended up taking a look back at what I really want to achieve when getting art in general and posting it on here. I'd like to make more of a focus on myself and expression, rather than my characters like I have been lately. I want to branch out and start doing more casual pictures, some involving my male form counterpart as well. I'm also intending to continue commissioning vore artwork (so that means yes, you will still see sexy dragon/dragoness action over here).

Speaking of artwork, I'm once again making an attempt to create my own art. I'm still very much at a beginner phase. I had previously stopped for several reasons a little over a year ago (mostly lacking the continued motivation to practice drawing due to life in general). The dream would be to eventually create my own artwork, and be able to post it here. As it stands one of the biggest issues I am having is finding artists who will draw the niche things that I enjoy (such as hyper and large prey vore) that are available when I am thinking up scenarios. The only issue I have is that between this, my work, and self studies. It creates a rather exhausting toll on me through the day.

So overall how am I doing? Fine for now at least.

Well, now that my 24th birthday has come and gone. I figured I'd host another AMA, though I'd also like to get to know some of you all as well if you're up for chatting. Feel free to reach out with a question for me or any of my characters.

Simple title, I'm reentering the commission scene. I'm looking for some artists around the mid range price point ~120$ With this in mind I am also open to doing collabs too so if you have any ideas to pitch to me I'm more than happy to hear them out.

Well, it's been a wild year for sure. Gotten to meet a lot of new people on here. Pretty soon it'll be an exact year since I went live here on FA. I have a special piece I have been holding out on, can't wait to share it with you all.

In the meantime, I would like to know. Of all the commissions I have gotten, what is YOUR personal favorite and why? I'm more curious than anything else.

Ask me anything, round 2. I’m a bit bored at the moment, and I love just getting to interact with all you. So why not?

I've been holding off on this journal for a little bit. I've been having trouble lately trying to interact with the community as a whole. I've kinda gone dark for a bit, the reason being is I have been just utterly exhausted. I've been having to make long commutes for my job 3 times a week, and have to deal with job pressures as well.

So if I have been MIA, that's why. I don't want any of you to think it's personal or anything like that. I've just been a bit tired lately. That being said I'm hoping to be able to balance it out a bit more. I'm also looking for suggestions/people who would be interested in doing coop pieces with me. I still have some fun stuff in store before the year's end, so be sure to stay tuned for that.

Like the title says. Ask me Anything, if you were ever curious about anything related to me or my characters, feel free to ask here.

Do you ever feel that no matter what you do, no matter who you try to please, at the end of the day nothing has changed?

Do you ever feel like something inside you is missing, that you ache for it? Yet no matter how hard you search and search you are no closer to it?

Do you ever feel that you are alone, that your friends in life have left you? That you are all that remains?

Do you ever feel empty?

Heya, Shinraiyah here. I wanted all your opinions on something, would any of you care to actually see the digital art that I have been working on? I admit it's not the quality of a lot of the artists I commission, so I have some doubts about posting it here. But I would like to know how many of you would like to see it if it interests you. I'm still a novice at drawing, but I'm getting better.
