Howdy, happy Friday!

I wanted to give people a little rundown of how you can get art from me at the moment because I don't think I've made it super clear, and it's more complicated than just "are your commissions open or not"

Fully customized commissions are rare, taken one at a time, and all auction based. They will take place here on FA, so look out for those if you'd like.

1-of-1, flat price YCHs are also available for significantly cheaper. They are released first on my Telegram channel (https://t.me/Studioscotty) before being posted publicly. I try to release a set of 3 with varying themes every week or two.

And lastly, if you're a fan of wares (and I know that you are) you can always buy trinkets at my shop!: https://acggoods.com/store/Studiosc.....ystudio-scotty

Thanks guys! Hope to keep drawing for y'all soon~

Howdy, hope y'all are well!

For a very long time, I had the incorrect idea that "just draw"-ing would be sufficient to naturally improve at art. This caused me to plateau very quickly, and improve very slowly. Although, I do understand that improvement is not everyone's goal. Plenty of folks draw because it's fun, and that's cool too. :3

I wanted to format this as a kind of "What I would tell my younger self who is struggling to improve". Maybe, just maybe, if I can help others get out of a similar rut that I was in, I think that would be really cool!~ So let's begin!

Very important and fundamental

- Form: Breaking down an object into simple shapes, learning to draw those shapes in different perspectives, then combining those shapes back together before adding detail. Now I know what you're thinking "pfff, I know how to draw shapes, what am I 6??" But little man, no you do not. This is as fundamental as it gets, and if you don't understand the principles and dedicate a little practice, drawing anything from imagination will be very very difficult.

- Gesture: You're drawings are looking so stiff, and this is going to be a problem for yearrrrs, so let me save you some time. Artists don't draw characters exactly as the human form looks irl, they exaggerate and bend the form in ways that look interesting and express emotion, while still appearing natural. You learn this skill with gesture drawing. I know it looks stupid and like it wouldn't help, but trust me.
Resource: https://youtu.be/2fl5LYouyoY?si=GrQIMhbG0pn8NyIC

- Reference: If you don't know how to do something, stop guessing and calling it "good enough". If you want to learn to draw interesting characters and settings, you need to expand your visual library. You're drawing a cat? I know you think "I know what a cat looks like" but unless the image is right in front of you, you're mind cannot properly translate what you see in your head onto the canvas and it's going to make a lot of incorrect assumptions along the way without references.
Resource: https://youtu.be/4rN_Yg81tPY?si=xJm4Zylqt4eyhGFi

- Critique:/ It's very very difficult to see your own mistakes, which is why that "deliberate practice" stuff you're doing right now isn't working. Your friends can draw very well, but they are not instructors. You can ask them for critique, but as your future self, I'm just telling you right now, there are better ways. Watching a character design master critique the works of artists closer to your level has been insanely valuable and eye opening. They find mistakes you've never considered, then show you in real time how much better someone's art can be when you consider these changes.

Leveling Up

- Color Harmony: Please, please, please, learn about color harmony before color theory. Learning how to make colors work together is much more valuable than learning what colors theoretically look good together. https://youtu.be/4LhcNbFMkTw?si=wGxzSbcZDB_ZQltA

- Implied Lines: My guy, this is going to be our secret weapon, and it's so simple. Not every "line" needs to connect. You can erase the middle of a line, and the viewers' eyes can connect those two lines automatically. Why? It makes a drawing look more interesting. Don't ask me why, it just does. https://youtu.be/ZpKMAeackQ4?si=q4J7et_isQDSN-Zm

- Master Studies: Gather a bunch of art from your favorite artists, then copy them. You like how this person does a feint white outline around a character to make them pop? That's our technique now. You like how this artist draws heads? Literally trace a bunch of their heads until you get consistently confident.

- Line art dynamics: Your line art sucks and always looks worse than your sketch because you don't know what you're doing. Line art seems so simple and straightforward, but nowadays it's where we use a lot of creative energy. https://youtu.be/7m3wGbPMSUY?si=gDIW50rs3_t6fjT4

- Composition: Instead of flying blind and guessing how to compose a drawing, you'll be shocked by how much a little bit of planning can transform a drawing. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XQr.....mp;amp;index=3

Don't Bother

- Anatomy: I promise you don't need to know the names and shapes of muscles, just learn form, it's all you need. If you learn complex muscle structure before form, you'll never be able to implement what you've learned. It's like a chef learning how to cook a steak before learning how to turn on the stove. https://youtu.be/GNXgCgD_R_Q?si=9x0lj0B7Z4YCO6Zv

- Character Design: We're not character designers, we draw other people's characters. A lot of the advice in that field is not applicable just yet. At least not as important as everything else listed above.

Howdy again! I'm off on vacation for a few weeks, and I brought my tablet this time, lol. I have a few comms in queue now that I plan on finishing up, then, if I'm going to be working on vacation, I think I'd like to work on ideas that resonate with me the most.

So for one time only, I'll be taking commissions via application! Submit your idea here and I'll let you know if I select it :3 https://forms.gle/YBRxnesYwsZjCaJp9

For will close when I return home on August 11th.

Any questions or anything do let me know! Hope y'all are having a comfortable Summer~

Hey all! One thing I've always wanted to make was an art shop. I haven't always been confident in finding the right balance between cute, provocative and tasteful, but I've been hard at work all last week designing and optimizing (shoutout to graphic designers, that took forever omg) until I got an art shop and road map that I'm happy with!

As linked above, all my stickers are on Redbubble: https://www.redbubble.com/people/St.....tty/shop?asc=u

Thanks y'all! <3

Heyo, just wanted to give a quick update since last journal.

Mostly to say thank you guys, very very much. The amount of messages and comments was quite overwhelming, but I am immensely grateful! Please know I read every single one even if I can't always reply. Reading your stories that night was chicken soup for the soul, I had no idea people related so much.

I've been quite underground for a bit, but I have been hunkering down and working on new projects that I can't wait to show y'all!

That being said. I have a bad habit of speaking cryptically and unclearly, so I want to be direct. Right now, I'm focusing on trying to be a better person to my very small handful of longtime friends, and find my tribe from the ground up. I love all of your comments and kind words, but please don't have any expectations of a relationship. And, especially if there's no question, please don't expect a response. Though I do read everything! <3

If you're thinking, "Wow, you get a crumb of notoriety and all of a sudden you're too good for people." I want you to know my brain thought of that first, and I already shut that shit down, so you can't hurt me :>

TLDR; Trauma often manifests into a lack of emotional awareness, and a lack of sense of self, or personality. As I continue healing and begin to gain those back, I realized that I’m deeply unhappy with the way I have cultivated many of my relationships. I acknowledge that it’s not entirely my fault, but it is 100% my responsibility to fix. I simply ask to please cool it with the sexually charged conversations, and be patient while I figure out who the hell I am.

Howdy, hope y’all are well!~ I’ve been trying to find the words to say this for a very long time, so here’s my best go.

I would really really appreciate it if folks kinda cooled it with the overt flirtatiousness, thirsty kink-talk, and unsolicited porn sharing with me. The nature of the art that I make is not consent to do these things. I understand that before now I was totally okay with it, and even played along. Things change, and I hope people can respect that.

The Situation:

Since early last year, I’ve been doing a lot of mental health work. Medication, therapy, and complimentary/alternative medicine (shoutout HealthygamerGG). And it has taken this long to even begin to understand just how much trauma has stolen from me.

Lore and Context:

This section isn’t pleasant, so please feel free to skip. Life’s been rough. I grew up an only child to a single father that cycled between abusive, neglectful and controlling. I graduated college in 2019. He expected me to take care of him, but I changed my number and ran away with $500 to my name instead. That night I slept soooo good~

It was a 5-day car ride from California to Tennessee. I owe a lot to my longtime friend  WilliamLB and his partner  Citronel for taking me refuge while I figured everything out. I eventually got a job and my own apartment. Interesting thing happens when your mind doesn’t have to worry about safety anymore. Everything else comes bubbling up. Depression, alexithymia, zero sense of self, not fun stuff.

I moved four times from 2020-2024. The novelty always kept the depression from becoming overwhelming, until it didn’t work anymore. Thankfully I found the help I needed; I often say Bupropion saved my life, heh.

The relevant bit is, throughout all of that, I was a dopamine addicted, hypersexual, people-pleasing doormat, without a sense of self or shame. I wasn’t me. I didn’t even know who I was, nobody did, I never had a chance to figure it out. The part of my brain that was in charge of that noticed that every time it spoke up, we got beat. So to protect me, it learned to be small. Maybe if we’re not noticed, we won’t get hit today.


My Responsibility:

The meek, hypersexual Scotty you once knew is no more. You didn’t want that annoying ass guy around anyway, I know I don’t. As I go through my phases, and continue finding out who I am, I hope that people can be patient and understanding. I’m new to this whole ‘emotions’ thing, hah.

My issues eventually lead to dozens of surface level acquaintanceships. I don’t want to be reductive, but let’s be real. I had a realization a bit ago. Everyone who I saw as a friend only ever talked to me in a flirtatious manner, and that sincerely makes me very sad (But at least I can actually feel sadness now!).

If I’m going to be your friend, I want to know about your family, your ambitions, your most annoying coworker, shit that friends actually talk about. I don’t want to be afraid for my physical safety around the people who I’m supposed to love anymore.

I want to have you over for gaming night, have a sleepover, watch a movie, go to the swapmeet, things that friends do. And I realize that it starts with me.

As I continue this path of discovery, I’m taking active steps to build the life that I want. To be intrinsically motivated to become the kind of person I want to be. All I ask from y’all is to be patient and understanding if I’m not down to be your boy-toy chatbot anymore.

If I can give pointers to anyone who can relate, feel free to let me know and I can go deeper about specifically what helped me. Leave it in the comments so my reply would be public for the benefit of those who are not yet strong enough to ask for help themselves.

Thank you guys, take care, hope you’ve been well~

Opening up commissions tomorrow (about 24 hours from now) in two separate waves; being mindful of different time zones. As usual, Telegram gets first dibs: https://t.me/StudioScotty

Ty 🩵~

Hey y'all, hope everyone's doing well!~ I'm very very happy to be back and drawing at full force. After getting an advertising degree, going to poker dealer school, and spending time working as a grill cook, it's never been more apparent to me that illustrating is where my heart is.

But to those of you who know me only as an illustrator, you'll have to bear with me for a sec. For a long time, I was posting IRL kink content, and was a big participant in the kink community in general. And only occasionally made art.

I don't want to ignore the fact that one day out of the blue, I stopped most of the kink stuff and started drawing a lot more. Even wiped my accounts of most of that. There were a couple of reasons.

One, I started antidepressants, and it’s helped me fall in love with drawing again. For weeks I would get home from work, draw for 6-10 hours, then sleep. Now, I would rather use up all my creative energy drawing than making “kink content”.

Two, there was a weekend kink/gear event early this year that I attended. It was one of the worst experiences of my life, and I don't think I'm exaggerating. I've never felt so small, alienated, and used. Almost every furry I met was kind and polite, but every attempt I made to socialize, branch out, or flirt with others were met with cold shoulders, scoffs, and belittling.

It all culminated on Friday night. I was volunteering at an event I was looking forward to all month. Imagine a party where everyone brings their sleepsacks and everyone has a chance to try them. I extended my volunteering efforts because there weren't enough volunteers. I finished up, the event was winding down, and I was denied participation.

That broke me. All I could think leading up to it was “This weekend sucks, but at least I have this party to look forward to”. This is why I felt so used. I sobbed all night, packed all my things, slept on it, and sobbed on my way home a few days early. Everything's fine now though~ To say it was “Traumatizing” is probably too strong, but it turned me off to ever wanting to participate in such events again. I have enough friends and my lovely partner to have those needs met.

Just wanted to give an explanation. I know for a lot of folks it just kinda happened suddenly, and I wanted to explain. I just needed some time. And now I'm very content with the road I'm on :3

And to those who had no idea, sorry for the irrelevant wall of text. xD

Tl;dr: Antidepressants helped me enjoy drawing again, and a kink event scarred me bad enough to never want me to participate again, lol

Hello friends!

Commissions are likely to open next week. Just giving a heads up in case anybody was interested. Openings will be announced in this order:

1) My telegram updates channel (Minimum notifications, I promise): https://t.me/ScottysStudio

2) Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/scottywuff.bsky.social

3) Twitter: https://x.com/ScottyDoesStuff

4) FA

Until all slots are filled!

Thank y'all, hope you're all doing well, it's been a while since I've spoken to some of you I'm sure~

All the info ya need is here: https://www.furaffinity.net/view/57551195/

Thanks y'all! Hope you guys are doing well :3

Oof, it's been a while. Y'all still remember me? xD

Like the title says, sometime in the next few days I'd like to tidy up this page. Not deleting any submissions or anything like that, just that the page is looking a bit bare and out of date, hah. I admit I've been lazy and just uploading art to Twitter, which I want to change up. It's convenient, but doesn't work very well as an art site.

But anyway! Hang tight while I work some stuff out here uwu

Well they're always open, hah! Just don't always make it in announcement format. Also need to replace the last journal, hah.
Have a look at prices here: https://www.furaffinity.net/view/35360525/
May also upload a few YCHs if I get the time and if you'd prefer those. :3

Hey guys....It's hard to come up with what to say. Thank you guys so much. I was so bummed out when I got that stupid ticket, but y'all have just made me feel so appreciated. Independent of whether or not you gave money or bought a YCH, you have no idea how... seen y'all have made me feel.

Pardon my cheesiness, but I always feel invisible, like nobody really cares about me because why would they. And I'm holding back tears because that just didn't feel true today. I can never take for granted what you guys do for me, ever ever ever. It's not even about the money, I can survive a ticket. It just came at such a bad time because I'm moving soon and have literally no furniture so it felt like a gutpunch because I've been working hard to be able to afford to furnish. But I've been saving a little bit and I know I'll be okay!

To every single one of you, who donated, bought art, offered their moral support, or who have otherwise always been there for me, thank you. <3

For those that donated, just wanted you to know I'm back on track to paying off this credit card before my move-in date. Your money went 100% toward that stupid ticket and the grocery trip for the week earlier today.

PS: There is one person who donated money that I couldn't thank because I don't recognize the Paypal email. Let me know who you are, let me doodle you something. <3

I was out and about doing deliveries for Doordash downtown, which I will never do again, and my dumbface went into a parking lot when it was too dark to see the unlit Republic Parking signs so I didn't think it was paid parking. Spending my Friday nights delivering food to rich people to make ends meet and like some cruel joke I'm slapped with a ticket I can't afford.

I don't want to turn this into a pity party, plenty of people have had it waaaaay worse, it's just a bummer that it happened while I was working. Ah well, lesson learned.

IN ANY CASE! I'm going to be opening up 2 real cheap YCHs in a minute so I can just pay off the stupid ticket and be over it. I actually kinda liked how the sketches turned out so I hope y'all like. :3

Hey guys!

Since I have now graduated from the dreaded college institution, I have a lot more free time and can totally ramp up production with drawings! That being said, I'd love to know what you guys might like to see more of. Themes, kinks and the like. So I started a quick strawpoll to help me get a better sense of what you guys like. :3

https://www.strawpoll.me/18150994

Thank you so much, and happy voting! (Warning, NSFW themes in the poll)


And in case you missed it:
I've decided to create a new Twitter account for my art to help get the word out, and make it a lot easier to upload much easier.

Expect more sketches that won't go up on FA, early peeks at YCHs I'm working on, reduced prices on YCHs and possibly commissions (It's a lot more convenient talking and sending updates through Twitter, so it's very worth it), shirts and stuff I'm making, taking art suggestions, and more!

Have a look and a follow, I'd super appreciate it! <3

Friends! Inspired by somebody else who made such a list, I thought it would be neat to highlight some of the great personal moments from this past year. As always, thank you guys for reading and all. nwn

#10: Detroit, Become Human
Almost unanimously viewed as a good, yet kind of forgettable game, I have been waiting for Detroit for such a long time. I fell in love with Heavy Rain, and have been hungry for a game like this. I played, and it delivered. There was happiness and heartache. I'm not sure if anybody was as hyped about this game as I was, hah.


#9: My first clean sheet
A little context for those who don't know. In soccer, if the goalkeeper on a team doesn't allow the other team to score even once throughout the entire game, it'd known as a clean sheet. I have been seriously playing soccer for a few years now, and have never gotten one. Until this last season. First game, diving save, keep the opponent at zero. Felt great. <3
Watch the save here: https://www.instagram.com/p/BodXa_4.....ns_share_sheet


#8: 2018 World Cup
Pretty self explanatory. Always a blast to be a part of a fun, global competition and representing my country(s). <3


#7: Trisha Paytas: LIVE
Okay, so I miiiiight've dropped like $300 on a Youtuber's cheesy live show, but I got a meet and greet and got to eat pizza with them, so, worth.


#6: New Computer
Yeeees, I finally have a desktop computer that can actually play games! Mostly having a blast being able to hang out with my buds when they're gaming. uwu


#5: 2018 Midterm Elections
I'm a very politically active person, so I spent a lot of the past 2 years worrying about these midterms. And let's just say there was a huge sigh of relief on November 9th


#4: Smash Bros. Ultimate
What a year for games, hah. Not only has Smash Ultimate been super duper fun, it's great to see all my friends and I rally around and play games together. I feel pretty good about my skills, and I'm hoping to develop them further! Huge anticipation for this game, and everything that came out of it just made it great. From the hype train to day 1.


#3: FC 2018
Further Confusion has always been one of the biggest highlights of my year, and this year was no different. Rooming with some of the best friends a wuff could ask for, making new ones at their awesome poker tourney, and broadening my horizons are just some of the highlights.


#2: 21st Birthday
I think a lot of folks have fond memories of their 21st birthday, and it has something to do with drinking. Not quite with me. Something way better. My co-workers, who maybe I consider friends, got me a cake and had a nice little celebration. Which maybe doesn't mean a lot to a lot of folks, but to someone like me who is often in the background, kind of forgotten, and just a very minor part of folks' lives, it felt good to feel cared about~ And if that wasn't enough, my family threw together a surprise party for me. I honestly thought this birthday was going to be no big deal. I didn't feel like I was the kind of person that people would care enough about to throw something like a surprise party. Maybe I was wrong. <3


#1: Hanford Vacation
I'm sure the feeling is common, especially with folks who understand depression. Sometimes feeling down gives you feelings that you need to run away. Get out of that situation. Well, I was going through a particularly hard spell earlier this year, and although the odds were very much against me in every way, I was finally able to pack my bags, and visit one of my long time friends up north. From the outside, taking a few days to visit an online friend doesn't sound like much, but damn did it mean the world. Everyone I met was just so fucking nice to me. I did eventually come down from that depressive episode. I understand that a lot of folks can't do what I did. They can't go from a toxic to a good environment when they don't feel well, so for that I'm grateful. And will always hold this memory fond. <3

Hey guys! A lot of my buds aren't going to FC this year, so I'm going to have to see what I want to do about the room, where I'm going to be staying, or if I'm gonna be hosting a roooom. Anybody going and possibly maybe wanting to talk about hosting or joining a kink positive room for next Further Confusion? o:

Hey guys! For those of you who may not know, and who doesn't follow me on social media or other platforms, I have a brand new radio show online! Every single Saturday night at 9PM PST Your support in viewing will mean the world to me, and you will not regret it. nwn

Have a listen here: https://titaninternetradio.airtime....../stream-player

Thank you!

Hello friends! I’ll be going to FC this weekend, which means that I will not be working on commissions~ I truly need this vacation, so I’m super glad you guys understand. uou

I’ve been working on and considering making a Patreon for quite a while now, and I think I finally have everything I need to launch it! Here it is: https://www.patreon.com/ScottyWolf


Do consider supporting, I would appreciate it very very much with all my heart. And nab yourself a perk while you’re at it! Including my “Set for life” perk. :9

Teaming up with  BenTheDragon to bring you guys some shirt designs! We're early in the process, but do have yourselves a look!

https://www.redbubble.com/people/sk.....location=front

Howdy guys, looks like the semester is over and I can dedicate a lot more time to art now!~ Can't wait to get some more cool YCHs and commissions out there for you guys.

You guys still interested? I know it's been a veeeeeeeeeeeery long time. x3;

Commissions are now closed! I've hit a point with my newly acquired job that makes it so that I don't have to depend on the money I made off of commissions for money. And I really want to spend the energy I have left after school and work to be able to draw for myself, my friends, and loved ones~ Hopefully an opportunity to better myself in art and be able to experiment with stuff without the fear of disappointing a commissioner.

And as for the health update, it's been a while since I posted my intentions of losing weight, and here's an update:

I've found a pattern of behavior that seemed to be contributing to my failure every single time I've tried to lose weight. And that is the 21 day mark. I fall off of any dieting plans almost astonishingly coincidentally after 21 days. So I became conscious of that problem, and adjusted. Now, the holidays and Further Confusion earlier this week didn't help much, heh, but I'm back on track. OH! And Further Confusion was rather interesting this year. Had lots of fun. uwu


From the heaviest I've weighed (235.6 lbs) to my current weight (227.6 lbs), I'd say it's going well and my spirits are high. I'll keep you updated.


Y'guys are awesome! And if you read this far, I'm so glad ya care about me enough to! x3

I'll be going! Any of you guys gonna be there and interested in saying hi? :3

Should be there Thursday through Sunday morning. And um um... Yeah that's it! Hope everyone is well. :3
