Raffle! A free 3D Model!? Mon dieu!
Posted 5 years agoSince this is my first raffle and I'm doing it for a greater reason, I must have a long text attached to it to properly explain my reasons. But first, straight to business:
*How do I participate?
- Make sure you follow me on twitter ( https://twitter.com/InkDragon2 ).
- Find the proper Tweeter post there https://twitter.com/InkDragon2/stat.....07242653663235 ! Like it, retweet it and reply to me with anything that lets me know you read through this.
Congratulations, you're participating. The winner will be announced at the 23rd of this month, a date I will postpone if for some reason there are still a lot of people applying for it. Meanwhile, I'll keep working on my current fox project so stay tuned for updates!
*What are you offering?
A 3D model of a character. I'm looking to study and get better on those. It doesn't have to be an anthro, it could be a human, elf or whatever, but honestly? There are plenty of good models for those available already, so a furry, scaly or avian sounds better but hey, a winner is you! I'll try my best at whatever you request.
You can check the quality my work has so far at my patreon page (all posts are public) https://www.patreon.com/InkDragon
My knowledge on 3D is a little limited at the time so it can't be something too complicated for me to work with, but I'll surely try my best!
Modeled, lightly sculpted and then with retopology applied. Textured and rigged. I'll even play with shaders. Everything beyond that will depend on what I'm looking to study and learn and how much time I'm willing to spend on it for free. I promise a lot of work, though! I can't do anything super sculpted or heavy on particles thanks to some limitations on my computer over here but I may or may not have access to a better machine for a few days. We'll see!
No requesting for other people's OCs without their proper authorization. You can freely hand over your prize as a gift to a friend, if you wish. Canon characters from shows are okay, I can give them a try!
* Why this raffle?
There's no putting it gently: I'm in a pickle. The pandemic hit me hard. I managed to keep my head above the water for the past few months without a job, but now the situation has become a little more dire. For the first time I really know debt and I need a little extra money or I will be in big trouble soon.
Yes, the raffle is for free, don't worry! It won't cost you a penny to participate. My goal here, however, is to call for people's attention to my patreon and other sites where I post my work so maybe I'll find a few good souls to help out with donations or pledges on patreon (it's but 5$, folks!).
I'm also using this opportunity to advertise about my work as a therapist. If you have a good friend that is in need of someone professional to talk to, or if you need it yourself, consider getting in touch with me! The dollar or euro ratio, in comparison with my local coin, is next to 6 these days. I can charge very low prices and still be well compensated so it's a win-win!
That high ratio between coins make for every donation in dollar or euros to be extremelly helpful, no matter how low they may seem at first. Those 10 dollars of yours that don't seem like much at first can become several dinners for a brazillian friend! You may not know if your help will be saving someone's ass on the other end of a donation!
Well, I talked too much. I thank you deeply for your time and I hope I was clear about the raffle, as I'm sure that it's the main reason why you came in here, in the first place! Still, please do consider lending a hand to a noodle. Take care and good luck~

The Virus and how you may help!
Posted 5 years agoThis virus is affecting us all. Some more than others, but we are all in some sort of trouble. I, who had trouble finding work when people could go out, am at a loss once more now that everything is under lockdown. Once more I find myself in the need of requesting for solidarity and help from you. I know most people are not comfortable about just handing over money, but if you'll lend me one more minute of your attention, that's not what I'm asking for here!
Support my businesses! There are a few ways you can help me:
First, there's my patreon (link at the bottom of the page). I only ask for 5$ dollars and all of my posts so far are public, so you can always check what I'm up to before deciding to hop in or not!
Second, I have started my business as a psychologist online. I am properly licensed and trained, and my Country's legislation allows me to legally work with anyone from any Country with online therapy. You probably already know that the furry community is full of people that could use professional help, with all of the depression, anxiety and sadness going around, especially within the LGBT slice of the community.
Maybe you need it? Talk about me to your friends in need, contact me yourself, if you desire. Thanks to a very high Dollar - Real ratio, my fees in dollars are pretty low. I have two American patients and though I can't get into detail about our sessions, I can tell you that things are running smoothly and they are super happy with the price, which is much much lower than what therapists will often charge you in America if you're not covered by insurance.
I'm not gonna say you don't have to be American to enjoy the benefits of psychotherapy, but you already knew that. So long as you can speak good English or Portuguese, we're in business!
People can, you know, also donate money if they feel like they are in a good spot to do so. Below I'll link my paypal, patreon and discord, in case you desire to get in touch about the therapy. And stay tuned, because very soon I'll roll a raffle for a 3D model made by me! There will be regulations and limitations, of course, but it's a freaking 3D model, man! ;-;
Besides that: Watch me! Fav my work, share with your friends. Follow me on twitter, inkbunny and weasyl. Help spread the word of what I do and that shall help me greatly in the future.
Thanks a bunch for listening to me, friends. Let us soldier through those tough times, because as the popular saying goes: That which won't kill you gives you XP.

My deepest thanks to you all!
Posted 6 years agoThis is a "continuation" of this post http://www.furaffinity.net/journal/9338782/ . If you haven't read it just yet, I can reccomend it!
Earlier in December I sent a distress beacon here on my journal, asking for monetary help and support on patreon. Both friends and unknown strangers came to my aid and I couldn't be happier. Though the money donated and those who became my patreons didn't make me rich, they provided me with what I desired the most for that month of Holidays and also my birthday: Peace of mind.
Though I didn't manage to treat myself to anything spectacular for my birthday, with that money and some jobs that showed up I manage to pay all of the bills and manage to stay just above the line in the bank so I wasn't in the red with The System, nor was I in need of asking for money from my family (catholics can get kinda controlling when they managed to get an advantage over you...).
Instead of being a depressed butt locked in my bedroom all month, not only I managed to work with 3D and draw/study a lot, but I also kept myself busy with my old family house. I helped clean it, paint part of it and prepare it for the family visiting during Christmas! That kept me away from producing even more on 3D and digital art, but it was invigorating and heart warming.
I can barely find the words to say how thankful and honoured I am with this. You people saved my sorry ass from deep trouble, which allowed me to kick back and relax during my Birthday and Christmas. That piece of mind you people got me? Priceless! I managed to start this new year with renewed energies and I intend to make the most of it. Hopefully this means lots of porn for you!
Now, how will I pay the incoming bills for the month of January? I have no idea, but I'll figure something out! I have until the 15th to find a solution and I'm searching high and low for more work or a regular job, I'm also counting with more people being interested in my Patreon. It's just 5 bucks! You might notice how good your heart and mind feel, when you know that just a few dollars from you means someone's next dinner!
Hopefully my own line of work and patreon/donations will suffice, because another kind of job, though welcomed to pay the bills and put food on the table, would keep me from drawing and modeling a lot. When you guys lend a hand, then I can be more available to get better and produce more for your entertainment! And we all want that~
I can't just beg for money from you every month, though. I won't abuse your generosity and, once more, thanks a bunch for your help, you people saved me! I won't say a donation or joining my patreon are welcomed any time of the year, because you already knew that!
I hope all of you had a great time during Christmas and the new year's eve. I am wishing with all my heart that this new decade brings us a new kind of world, less aggressive and with more liberties and freedom. Let this be the very start of something that only gets greater and greater!

Merry Christmas!
Posted 6 years agoHello all! I haven't been updating things because... People won't let me work! It's 'clean the house' here and 'help me paint the wall' there, but now and on my birthday, two days from now, I'll be posting things I'll be working on hard during these days!
So, for now, Merry Christmas. I hope that your day will go by soothly like mine and that you'll be happy like I managed to become, thanks to you people. Talk to you shortly!

A plead for help!
Posted 6 years agoThank you very much for listening to me! I am not very proud of doing this, but I'm not ashamed either. I need help and I'm asking for it. I'm brazillian and if you check your international news, you'll see that things are not going well down here. I fell into a Limbo where I simply can't find a job.
I have specialized into the healthcare area and work with Eastern therapies such as Ayurveda and Acupuncture. Sadly, people down here are so short on money that they stopped using such services because they tend to believe it's "Spa day" stuff and not something to be taken seriously. Apparently taking care of your health is only good when there are pills and surgery involved...
Since that's what I have experience with and apparently to get into the walled city of work you first need to have worked... I am not finding anyone willing to hire me, even for the temporary work available during the holidays. I don't think I can make enough for the bills this month and the next and that's scarying me. The end of the year/beginning of the year is the worst period for me to work because people spend all of their money and then some on other things.
Here I am, asking you not for a new videoboard, drawing tablet or cellphone, but for some change that could help me keep up with the basics, such as electricity and water. The 27th of this month is my birthday and all I'm asking is for some tranqulity and peace of mind during christmas and my special day, knowing that in the long run I can actually keep up with the bills. All I'm asking is for the capacity of resting my head a little during that special time of the year.
You can help me with any amount you're willing to share on my paypal stary_adamski[at]ymail.com or if you desire, with 5$ by joining my patreon https://www.patreon.com/InkDragon and supporting me on my pursuit of art as a secondary or maybe even primary source of income. To help you warm your heart towards my cause and show you just how big is a little help, let me show you the numbers:
Currently, every Dollar is worthy about 4,20 of my local coin, the brazillian Real. That's a lot! Every 10 dollars will convert to roughly 40 of my local coin. After paypal fees, taxes, that amount will be around 30, maybe 32 that I can use. That much already helps me slice a considerable chunk off the bills.
I won't tell you that what may seem a small amount for some can be a massive help for me, because you already know that by now. For the price of a fast food combo that will damage your health, you could instead be a big help for a brazillian person suffering with this nazi we call a president and his destructive economics.
If you read this journal, I thank you very much for taking the time to listen. Whether you will help me with money or not, I'm grateful for your time and patience. Even if you can't or don't desire to help me with cash, you can always do something else that helps. Share some art of mine with a friend, maybe they'll like it and watch me. Follow me on twitter https://twitter.com/InkDragon2 or even click to favorite some pictures of mine.
Bless you all, friends. I wish that this end of the Year will be full of blessings for us all.

IT'S OVER ONE THOUSAAAAAND! *Breaks something*
Posted 12 years agoWoah, that magical number... I'm finally there =D I have over 1000 page views! Surely, this doesn't means anything spectacular, but for a silly amateur like myself achieving such a thing has an important meaning! To me it means I'm getting somewhere, that what I did wasn't a waste of time and that there are people out there that are actually interested in where is it that I'm going with my work!
I am aware that around 80% of that number is probably me and my friends who visited the page and all, but it still gives you the feeling that there is someone out there expecting your next piece. It gives you the feeling that some random stranger out there actually cares about your evolution and improvement, and that is certainly some good fuel for someone like myself, a person that gets depressed quite often and abandons everything for the sake of being a cry baby. Those numbers on my page really make me feel hopeful for a future I will enjoy.
I am here thanking all of my friends who have been visiting my page and all of you random strangers that saw my page and thought 'This guy has some interesting ideas, I'll watch him and see where he gets'. I also am thanking you, probable person that watched me just for the sake of giving me a courtesy for watching you. Every new number that gets into my screen is a small step I give towards something greater. One day, for all of you that have been watching me since this point where the quality of my work is poor, I hope you can say "Damn, I remember this guy a few years back, he really improved over time!", just like I do with many artists I have been following for years now.
Well, it is time to plan a special piece to celebrate that special number and to start working on it so there are no big delays! Again, thank you all very very much for that honor and I'm hungry for the 2000 mark~ And downright greedy to add one more zero to that counter!
