WB FA! Also, where have I been?
Posted a year agoHey everyone. I’ve been gone for a while! I’ve missed you. Despite browsing FA daily I've hardly posted here, or on my DA.
I’ve been absent for a while, and I apologize to anyone who was upset at my abrupt disappearance. I’m not sure if I will ever be super active, but I know I cannot and will not stop being an artist. Some of my absence has been in part of Deviantart Eclipse being such a shitshow to navigate and even receive notifications for any ARPGs. The emergence of AI art and various instances of art and character theft that I’ve had to deal with have made me take a step back as well. I am now going to be taking measures to protect my works (nightshade, glazing), and all future works. So many artists I’ve looked up to since the beginning of my art journey have been calling it quits, and it’s been discouraging to say the least.
Where are y’all congregating now for art, by the way? Bluesky? I know Cara was/is a thing? FA was down and DA is a minefield (both of which are the only 'art sites' I'm on currently.
Secondly, I had a falling out with a close friend who was also an artist in the same space. I looked up to them and spent a lot of time trying to be ‘worthy’ of their friendship. The experience left me heavily traumatized and disconnected me from my love of art and my characters for an embarrassingly long period of time. It made it almost impossible to channel a creative spirit. I still struggle with it, but I’ve taken avenues to care for myself and get the help I needed. My relationship with my characters and art is different now, but life will do that right?
Speaking of life, I’ve been pursuing other things as well! I’ve started streaming/recording games, art, and scale model building for over a year now. I legit have no idea why I never advertised or posted here v.v
I am in scale model groups that are super supportive, and the newfound energy has been really inspiring! I don't have as much time to dedicate as I’d like, but I do hope that ironing things out in the back end will provide more leeway soon.
I just wanna say thank y’all for the support over the years and I will be working on updating old, more ‘sampled’ illustrations with nightshade/glazed versions. And then I will be uploading some more recent works over the coming weeks.
I also have commissions open, and links to other social media/youtube/twitch are on my website! Check them out if you’d like <3

Not dead! Account update and more!
Posted 5 years agoHello everyone!
This account has been silent for quite a long time and I apologize, it had been a difficult journey balancing work life and keeping active in the art community. I hope everyone is doing well and staying safe out there in these rough times!
I had pondered long about the future of this account. I had debated for quite a while making a different account under a different name since FA hasn't created name changes yet, but I've decided to stay put for the time being. However, I'm going to be using this account for both SFW and NSFW content! Granted I don't make or post NSFW content often, but this will be my primary outlet for NSFW content.
My primary art account on DA (eugh Eclipse..) will include content such as: anthro, human, fanart and RL crafts and model kits. Focusing more on being a portfolio or more a professional 'up front' and cleaner in presentation.
This account will have all anthro and furry content posted on my DA, maybe some human work, and can also have NSFW content!
Places to find me:
Here on FA: https://www.furaffinity.net/user/silverfangaranx/
Deviantart: https://www.deviantart.com/silverfang-053
Twitter: https://twitter.com/SilverFang053
My hopes for this year is to get a weebly website up and running that details commissioning information! I've solidified TOS but am still working on pricing and examples!
tl;dr: I'm not dead, hopefully will be more active (espcially with DA's latest move) and this account might also post lewds in the future.
There is an art bomb incoming.
Be kind to each other,
Silver

Payment and Pricing:
Paypal USD Only.
Invoice and Direct Payment options are available.
Payment is expected in full after preliminary sketch is approved.
Prices can increase depending on:
Number of characters, props, intricate clothing, difficulty of characters (such as wings or complex markings/anatomy), and difficulty of the background.
Refunds:
After sketch approval and payment is processed, I will not administer a refund.
The Process:
1.) Send me a note with your ideas, refs, and info (such as personality, pose ideas etc! I love details!).
2.) If I accept: a free preliminary sketch will be drawn of the general ideas such as pose, props, and a background (if there is one). This will be heavily watermarked and not very large for theft protection purposes.
*Note: sketch commissions will not have this preview.
3.) After sketch approval, payment is expected in full.
4.) Payment received, piece is produced.
After the piece is finished, I will post it to my page and send you the full, finalized image via e-mail. Once the image is sent out, there will be no refunds administered.
If you're really unhappy with how it turns out, let's talk.
No, an 'I just don't like it' will not incur a refund.
ETA:
I work sporadically, your commission might take a few hours to a few days of nonstop work to complete, please be patient as I am discovering timeframes of such projects myself. Real life can be hectic.
Estimated wait time: 2 to 7 days.
Additional Info
Artist Rights:
I have the right to post WIP's or finalized pieces to my Deviantart page, Furaffinity page, personal website, or any website in which I am active (such as social media). Credit for characters/ideas will go to you. I also reserve the right to use your piece in a portfolio setting.
On the flip side you have the same rights as well, just please credit me as the artist!
I have the right to refuse any commission without question. The commissioner may ask why their commission was declined, but I am not required to respond or reply.
"Upgrading":
On a whim, I might upgrade a commission (such as a flat to a shaded) for practice. If you want something specific or don't want to be eligible for an upgrade, please indicate so.
No this probably won't be a normal occurrence, purely spontaneous.
Ambiguous references/ ref sheets:
I reserve the right to exercise artistic freedom if part of your reference or description is ambiguous. 95% of the time, I will ask before assuming.
Anything ambiguous? Need more info? Want a commission? Shoot me a note!
