tfw you know it's supposed to be your year for niche species transformation content but you're too busy and miss the hype train. Fuckin tragic.

Wanted to get the League dragon series finished by this year but doesn't look like it's gonna happen. Will see if I can get one or two shorter pieces later this year, but the bigger projects are a no-go. Well, there's always the next Year of the Dragon in 2036, right? I'm gonna still be breathing and this website isn't going to completely collapse, right? 🤞

[ ] ???-??-2025: Pending TF Art Trade

So it's been over two years since I left on my art journey, and all I got was this lousy t-shirt. I pretty much got nothing accomplished... which is why I've prepared a dozen excuses instead! Such as constantly being burned out by my unrelated job, losing motivation at the prospect of AI devaluing everything, my drawing monitor breaking last week (this one's actually true!), and a persistent feeling of exhaustion.

But even if the world burns, the TF must still flow. So I've put together an actual submission schedule to make myself accountable for posting art.*
*The following statements are not a binding agreement and are subject to change at the discretion of the written authority. Because I don't get paid for this shit.

[X] Apr-15-2023: Riven Cloud Dragon TF Colored Sequence
[X] Apr-30-2023: Shiki (SVC Chaos) Snake TF B&W Single
[X] May-15-2023: Katarina Infernal Dragon TF Colored Sequence
[X] May-31-2023: Saber Horse TF B&W Single
[X] Jun-22-2023: Fiora Mountain Dragon TF Colored Sequence (You are here)
[ ] ???-??-2024: ????? Ocean Dragon TF Colored Sequence (Maybe?)
[ ] ???-??-2024: ????? Elder Dragon TF Colored Sequence (Possibly?)

That's actually a lot of League of Legends and dragon TFs now that I think about it. I probably should've just saved it all for 2024 since that's the year of the dragon. Fuck.

I won't be submitting any finished artwork for the next year or two. I end up spending too much time on each piece, and all that effort drains too much of my motivation to keep going. I'm definitely not quitting the transformation art hobby though. Instead, I'll be using my free time in the near future to move over to Clip Studio Paint and try relearning how to draw faster from the ground up. Quality will definitely take a hit, but my hope is that I'll eventually be able to finish sketches in less than a day similar to most artists. Fewer references, fewer revisions, and more fun. I'll still be uploading any sketches I feel are good enough under "Scraps" on rare occasions though, so it won't be full incognito for me.

Keep it real - I shall return. o7

Wake me... When you need me.

Man, one submission in only 6 months? I'M ON FIRE. If I draw any faster, I think my hand might fall off!

So anyway I broke my own vows and drew two dragon tfs in a row. I swear I was in the middle of drawing a non-dragon tf comic until I got sidetracked. Stupid sexy dragons... After I get around to finishing that up, I'll probably have to think about just limiting submissions to sketches and drafts for a year as I work on speeding up my art process.

Brb in 500,000 minutes.

Ahhh... AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH... AAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!! *(1990s lightning crackling sounds)* AH!!!!!!!!

I've finally surpassed my limits. I struggled for over 100+ hours and even had to play through Kingdom Hearts 3 for this submission (pity me, for I have suffered). But I've finally arrived - stronger and more passionate about this obscure fetish than ever before!

And so ends the "Origin Story Arc". Shout outs to  etheross for his art coaching,  Corivas and  Hukeng for suggesting fixes to this piece, and  Hexen109 for his writing. I have a big piece planned for the tf community in the near future. Lend me your energy!

I had to resort to Kaio-ken x 4 for this last sequence. Things were looking grim when I chose to take on a not-a-dragon-transformation endeavor, but I barely managed to get out of it alive with my insanity intact. After my battle wounds heal, I'll try to go even further beyond for the next piece - which is probably going to be a revisiting of an old submission.

Got hammered again by adult responsibilities and procrastination, so I've taken a break to draw a single piece of Morrigan transformed into her series' titular creature. Yeah, yeah - I know it's only a lazy post-transformation, so I'll make it up by working on an actual sequence next time. Unfortunately, this next sequence is going to fall on my alternating-not-dragon-transformation slot, so please send me your thoughts and prayers.

So after my recent bit of activity, I'll be disappearing to the Shadow Realm once again for a while. But fear not, my handful of watchers, for I shall still be on my journey towards lewd-tf-Nirvana. I'll be working on my "ughhhh-this-takes-way-too-much-freaking-work" goal which is the completion of a tf-inspired jrpg. I've tried making this in the past with RPG Maker, but I didn't have the artistic talent or dedication to pull it off. This time though, I'm doing the cowardly, rational thing and only completing a 1-2 hour demo! YOSH!!! Even then, this will probably take the rest of the year to finish (with a 50/50 chance of me giving up!).

Anyway, I might pop back in to submit a b&w sketch here or there, but will be mostly absent working on this. I might setup a progress blog for the game, but I'm guessing there wouldn't be interest until I showed off the completed demo anyway. So this is goodbye for now - until the next arc!

So I haven't done shit for.... damn really? 7 months? Holy crap.

Anyway, I missed the "2Booty Fanart Hype Era" (FeelsBadMan), but here it is, in all its delayed glory. This is my first work with a pricey Cintiq while combating periods of laziness and distractions from work (but mostly due to fucking around with Tekken). And I learned backgrounds are a bitch and that I really need to take a break from them. So when I'm not lazy again, I'll be tackling sketching or lineart at most. More to come in the near (couple of months) future; likely some Fire Emblem tfs since the people I've been talking to are still real into that franchise (too many damn waifus).

Gonna start working on a personal piece since I've been so thoroughly impressed by the latest NieR game. Preview sketch and a glimpse of my work area. This'll be the first time I get to use the Bandai art figure I ordered recently too, so fun stuff. Working with a beater tablet right now, but I'll upgrade to a Cintiq if I ever feel like I'm good enough to deserve one. K, enough about stuff no one really cares about; let's get onto business.

To my watchers: don't worry, this'll be TF stuff... And as much as I respect the excellently written characters in NieR which you rarely ever see in gaming, I gotta quench the thirst. But that's no excuse not to try some new techniques and improve on drawing backgrounds. And no excuse for y'all not to play the game if you haven't yet! I may hit up some of the requests in my previous post later on, but for now, I'll be spending the next 1-2 months trying to make some marked improvements.

I shall return when I'm needed by my people. (ﾉ・_・)ﾉ

So, in an attempt to train myself to draw faster, I'll be taking some low-effort sketch requests/suggestions (like really low-effort...) Just post your ideas in a reply here, and I'll choose 2-4 ideas to tackle in the near future.

Some reservations:
- Sketches will be messy and basic since I'm working on increasing my drawing speed. Sorry if the quality is bad, but I need the practice and thought I could interact with some people while I was at it.
- Sketches will be a b&w, single character shot (mid-tf or final-tf).
- Established characters and creature TF. You can always post an idea outside my comfort zone, but I may be less likely to take it up.
- Can give general description (feral, anthro, monstergirl) and brief summary of the tf situation.
- Posting multiple ideas are ok, but I won't sketch more than one per user.
- Don't make me sketch bannable stuff, aite?
- I don't like turning people down, so I reserve the right to not reply to anyone. But if I pick your idea, I'll sketch it, post it to my scraps, and note you.

Aite. LET'S DO THIS. YOOOOSSHHHHH (ง •̀_•́)ง And the search for the next waifu for my next big project will still be underway. Velvet seems to be a decent contender, but there is still some time before I determine the next victim I mean candidate.
