So I have not been active here at all. :O
First of all, I got a baby now. So not much time to draw. And I moved back home, after living for myself for 6 months or so. So I have a tiny bedroom, and no workspace.
Second reason is that I did not get anything from drawing. It made me just miserable. Did not feel good enough. Not appreciated at all. Been giving my all, and nothing changed for so long. Wanted to earn a little, but no one wanted to buy my art. Then that made me feel like that all my hard work was for nothing.
I will try to start drawing again when I feel ready. When it can be fun again. Maybe find some people to draw with. I miss that.
So my whole profile will change, and I will delete most of it. So I can start again, start fresh. And hopefully it will spark some joy again.
Thanks for still being here.

So I have started drawing again. But I do not have any inspiration. So I ned some.
I want to give away a free drawing. Do not know what. It can be a sketch, lineart or a full drawing with shading.

So what you have to do,to win a free drawing:
1. Give me a ref (no shading and no writing) MAX 3 CHARACTERS!!!!!
2. Write the personality of your character.
3. Give me some ideas of what to draw.
4. Need to be a watcher. I will check!
All this give you one ticket.

If you spread the word, you get an extra ticket in this drawing!
And aslo if you spread it more then FA, you get an extra ticket.

So max 3 tickets!

It's too f hot in Norway! And that is one of the reasons I don't draw much lately. My room is so small, so all the electronics heat up the room so much I can't even be in here. And my poor cat must be in here all day, in this heat :/

So when the heat is gone, I will start to draw again. And hopefully make some adopts people will buy. Because I need to move out, and I need money for that. All the money I have saved up now must go to my dog who need to go to the vet.
I will also try to be better at drawing and other hobbies I have. So I can sell things I make. And then hopefully have the money to move out. :)

So I will be away for a week. Going to Lithuania with my sister. :)
My PC will go with me, but my drawing tablet is too big to take with me.
Will sleep now. Have to be ready 5.30AM D:

So I have just ordered a new tablet. A really expensive one. So I will make alot of adopts to sell, and open for comission. I need to pay this down as fast as possible. Or I have to live in this hell hole with my parents til I am 40!

Just waiting to get it. Will probably take some time, since it was not in stock.

The operation went well. Still have some pain in my stomach though.
If you did not read my last post, I had gastric bypass for almost 3 weeks ago.
I have already lost alot of weight since I started my weight loss journey. And hope that I will get healthy :)


Still have not bought a new tablet. Money have been really tight lately. :/ So want to draw!!!

Just wanted to update to those who care :)

Tomorrow I am going to get my operasion! Been waiting 4 years on this now. And kinda scared :O
So I am getting gastric bypass. So you know XD Then you all know that I am big fat lady. Haha. But I have already been losing alot of wight on the diet I must be on 3 weeks before the operasion. 10kg (22Ibs I think). So only 20kg more, and I will be happy. Maybe :3
So good luck to me.

And I still don't have enough money to a drawing tablet. But I will try my best to save up some money to buy one. I guess I just need to buy a cheap one. Since I really want to draw and make adopts again! Been drawing on paper more then ever though. And I can't draw furries on paper, only with the tablet. And manga, I can draw on paper but not on the tablet. WTF!?


I will be updating more for those who are interested :)

Comission I am waiting on.

Sketch from KillDoldegrander/ (waiting as HyenaMikio)

So we tried to fix my tablet, but it's no good. Now I can't use it at all. :(
Don't have the money to get a new one either. I could maybe buy a really cheap one, but I feel that would be a waste of money.
So I just need to save up to one I really want. But that will take alot of time. So no new drawings for a while.
Hope you can help to support me, by donating.
All donations will be written down and I will draw something for you when I have the new drawing tablet. It can take up to 6 months or more, depends on how much people will help me.

Please donate or share this if you want to and can :)
Please write your FA name when donating, so I can give something back later.
I also have some adopts here: http://www.furaffinity.net/gallery/...../208107/Adopts

Please donate here: vampyrisis[at]gmail.com

Just search for Sparkly Stars Workshop, and it will pop up, hopefully :D
Thanks!

Edit:
Got a name now :D

So I want to make a facebook page. Not for only my art, but everything I make. I want it to fit all of it.
Don't really want to use my Mikio name in it, because I want to make it feel more pro. And hopefully make me sell some scrapbook stuff, and other art projects.
Maybe a name that fit sparkly_stars some way? But I am not good with name making and stuff.
So any ideas out there?
Maybe a free sketch if I chose your idea :)

I will be opening for some commissions.

I will be take 5 commissions.
Just send me a note if you want one :)

NB: My drawing tablet have some problems. Almost broken. So if it get's broken before I am done with the commission, you will get the money back!

I am so sick! Got the cold. Have a feaver, head hurts, nose is renning and couching so hard -.-
Been binge watching season 2 of Stranger things, Jane the virgin and falling skies.

So I am going to try to move next year. Don't really have the money. But I will try to get a loan, but that will be so hard to do since I don't have a job.
So all the support I can get from you will help me a lot. Since I also need a new drawing tablet.

I am so tired. I am trying to save money, but they go away so fast as nothing. And living with my parrents is like living with two teenages drinking all the time. I can`t take it anymore. Feel like giving up on life, because nothing works out for me on anything!

So tired..

I want to take commissions and make YCH auctions, but I can`t :(
Since my drawing tablet can get broken any time, I don`t want to commit do something you paid. So I will only do adopts and draw for myself, til I get a new tablet.

Please check out my adopts :)

So my drawing tablet is almost broken. :(
See picture here: https://scontent-waw1-1.xx.fbcdn.ne.....mp;oe=5A84CBB5

So I need a new one. I always wanted one with a screen, so I found this one: https://www.huiontablet.com/kamvas-gt-191.html

Will not have any money for it right now. Next year I can start to save some money. And the money I earn here I will save for this tablet.
So if you want to help me you can check out these adopts :)

So my back is better, but still having problems sitting and sometimes walking. But I can draw a little a time. My doctor are sending me to get a MRT. Just in case. But the problems are the muscles in my back. They are too weak to hold all my fat up, since I am overweight.

Going to see specialists on breasts to check out my lump too. This will be next week. Starting a course also, to learn how to live with gastric sleeve/bypass. Going to get sleeve done, on a waiting list now. Just hope it does not colide with my London trip in Desember :O

So thats`s that :)

So I sneezed so hard that I colapsed in pain. My back hurts so fucking much. I don`t usually cry from pain, but when I sneezed and I felt this shock through my back and legs, I did. I screamed and started crying. My mom came in and found strong medecine, but they do not work.
:(

Since some years ago, when I and was going to look at an apartment, I fell hard on the ice. That christmas I got the worst back pain in my life. And after that it comes and goes. My doctor say it`s because of my weight, because I am overweight. But holy shit, why does it husrts so fucking bad?!
I can`t sit or walk (walking like an old lady), can only lay on my back. Glad I am going to see my doctor on friday because of the lump I found, but don`t know if he takes me serious enough. I want an MRT, and hopefully he will let me, because my physiotherapist said she wanted me to take one, last time I saw her.

So I can`t draw at the moment :/

I so want to do collabs with someone. Either someone one is good with lineart or shading. That would be so cool!

But do I know anyone who want that????

So since last journal, I have been working on adopts. Some of my ideas I will change. First adops I was making will maybe be a YCH ref sheet instead XD

But I have also been working on some furless animal adopts. And I hope some people will like them. I am done with one!
It will be 4 adopts, so look forward to it. Still don`t know if I will sell them or make an auction. Probably sell them. :)

Life update for those who are interested!
So for like 8-9 months ago, I found a lump in my breast. I got a little nervous, but forgot about it fast. Then I found a lump in the leg on my cat, and asked my mom about it. So I will check it out once in a while to see if it grows. Then that reminded me of what I found in my breast. So I checked it out, and it got bigger. So now I have sent a message to my doctor and hope I will get an appointment fast. I know it can be anything, but still nervous about it. Since my aunt died of lung cancer even though she never smoked.

So I am in need of money to buy a new drawing tablet and laptop. So I am saving much money I can now :O But I don't have alot of money to save.

Therefor I am making my own ref sheets with front and back wiev, 3 outfits and face with details.
I will start with canines, and will maybe do felines. Not sure yet. I would do dragons and stuff like that. But I am not good with them XD

So what do you look for in an adopt? What should I think about to get them sold?
Should I sell them in auction, or? I will let people chose the aoutfits when they buy them. So how much should I sell them for?

Everyone will have different hair, tails and ears (so many I can).

So since I live at home, I can't use my stationary PC. I can only use a laptop. And this laptop is like 5-6 years old now. And not in a good condition. And ofc the cord on my tablet is broken and my laptop. Haha.
Because of this and that I sit in a bed to draw, I have not been drawing much lately.

Buuuuut!!! I have gotten some new watchers. Thank you! :)

Don't know how long it will take to save up some money for a laptop and a tablet. Longer it takes, longer it will be before I can draw alot again. Wish me luck! XD

And I am going to meet my ex soon :O Wtf!
