Whoops!
Posted 10 years agoSorry for the inactivity here, guys!
Been kept pretty busy between the holidays, working on art for my other account, and dealing with sorting out medications. HOPEFULLY done with all the unfun stuff for now.
Hope you all had a good holiday season and are doing well!

Google Wallet and other Paypal alternatives
Posted 10 years agoFinally set up a google wallet account. I figured it would be nice to give people a little more choice since I know not everyone is terribly fond of Paypal. If there are other options that people would be interested in, feel free to let me know about them and I'll take a look!
If you get a commission, please state which payment method you prefer so I can send the appropriate info!
On a related note, for the night crowd: I am currently open for September commissions! http://www.furaffinity.net/journal/6991272/

September Commissions Open!
Posted 10 years agoHeyo! It's that time again - I'm taking on my workload for the month of September.
For general ideas on tiers and pricing, please check HERE however the best way to figure out how much a piece'll cost is to shoot me your idea! I'm always extremely happy to work with people and answer any questions they have!
If you're interested in getting something or just have a question, please feel free to send me a note! If you are inquiring about pricing, please include a general description of what you'd like, including:
Quality of the piece (sketch, polished, etc)
Number of characters (References aren't necessary for a quote, but may be included if desired or if you're unsure if a character may fall into the category of "complex design" and thus potentially incur an additional fee)
Whether or not there is to be a background and if so, a brief idea of the setting

Whether or not there is to be a background and if so, a brief idea of the setting
Disclaimers and other useful info:
Some complex pieces can take upwards of 3-4 weeks from the time they are started. and so in order to keep workflow moving and avoid backlog, sketches will almost always be given priority over polished pieces in the queue, and simple polished pieces will always take priority over those with multiple characters and/or complex backgrounds.
Sketches less than $30 USD are asked to be paid up front and generally do not include a preview of the rough sketch unless requested.
Polished pieces, and sketches equal to or exceeding $50 USD, may be paid either half up front and half upon approval of a rough sketch; or, if desired, entirely up front - up to $60 USD.
Payment is currently accepted through Paypal and Google Wallet.So, life, art, things. Also Socializing
Posted 10 years agoIt's been a while since I've posted a journal just to kinda shoot the shit
First off I wanna say Hi and thanks to all the people who've followed me over the last squizillion months. How y'all doin'?
Second off, I'm pretty pleased to announce that after struggling for a long time with depression and attention deficit issues, I've finally managed to get help from a psychiatrist. Recently started my second week of medication for the depression and I can already see and feel the massive impact its had on my ability to focus and my overall mental wellbeing.
While that's fantastic for me, I'm sure it doesn't interest most of you. However, with the increased ability to not get distracted by household appliances hopefully that will mean more productivity and more art activity in the future. ~*~Yaaaaaaaaaaay~*~
Finally my third point: Seems things here on FA have been getting rocky once again, so while I don't foresee an immediate departure, I figure it's a good time to remind people where else I can be found:
Currently my only other gallery specifically for art is at http://weasyl.com/~Stinkslinky but it hasn't been updated since I made the account a few years back. May have to change that.
If however you just wanna socialize, I mostly frequent twitter - https://twitter.com/stinkslinky

Well I'll be
Posted 11 years agoFriend suggested unplugging my mouse - the ONE THING I hadn't even considered to do in response to my tablet issue.
Guess that was the problem cos it fixed the issue instantly, as far as I can tell, even after I plugged the mouse back in. 8T
Hella props to
zephyrlot for figuring that out
Now I just gotta relearn how to draw like normal lmao

Morning stream + hourly raffle (EDIT)
Posted 11 years agohttps://furstre.am/stream/Steampossum
If the stream was locked when you tried to get in, just refresh. Forgot I put a password on it! Sorry about that!
Working on an image. After I'm finished with that, I'll be offering $10 doodles
Once each hour I'll be holding a raffle. Winner gets a free doodle! If the winner has already received a doodle, then it will be coloured for free! REMEMBER: You can only win once!
(As a precaution, I'll not be accepting requests to colour OTHER people's doodles)
Also consider picking up a collab from myself and
terribad to help me out of a sticky situation!! http://www.furaffinity.net/journal/6450166/

Posted 11 years agoLong story short: Got a raw deal after trying to help out a family member last year and found out that I now owe $142 in sales tax to the Board of Equalization due by February second.
Due to my tablet's recent wonky tracking, I'm unable to sketch as finely as I'd like, HOWEVER the very awesome
terribad (seriously, go check him out if you haven't already) has offered to help by teaming up with me for collaborative commissions!
He'll be doing the linework while I will be colouring/painting. EXAMPLE
We would be asking $60 apiece, UP TO two characters. Extra characters, or exceptionally complicated characters will be subject to additional charge.
(Please note that scat/messing will not be offered for collabs HOWEVER, if you WOULD still like something of that subject matter you're more than welcome to inquire for something by myself at $30 [though do be aware that this may be delayed])
Due to the urgency of the situation as well as the less than expeditious nature of Paypal withdrawals, we'd have to ask that payment be sent in full, in advance once the idea has been approved (ideally before January 28th).
Send me a note if interested! I appreciate any help!

HELLO
Posted 11 years agoHello everybody! I hope you all had and are having a good holiday season and those that celebrate got lots of fancy loot and/or had good times with loved ones.
Just popping in to say hello and let you guys know what's been goin' on.
My tablet remains frustrating and mucky, but I think if I can find the issue with my mouse driver I can solve that maaaaaaaaaybe.
In the meantime, I've been wanting to get back into traditional art so I may be focusing more on that for a while. Unfortunately my old scanner from yonks ago doesn't actually work so it may be a while before I can get any of that up, but I'm gonna work on figuring something out!
That about covers everything, so I'll see you all in 2015 and I hope you guys have a good one!

Posted 11 years agoI think it's fair time to consider retiring the Monoprice tablet and saving up for a new one. The thin plastic sheet that acts as the tablet's surface is now so warped that it's difficult to draw and I'm not entirely sure of any long term solution.
I've gotten almost two years out of this thing so for what I spent on it I suppose I can't really complain but I definitely think it's time to look onwards and upwards. Considering a medium sized Intuos Pro, but that's gonna be a few months ahead, at least.

December Update and Commissions
Posted 11 years ago[Reuploading due to FA's recent notification issues]
Hello all! Just wanted to give a quick update on what's going on and why I've been a bit inactive lately!
Been super duper busy the last couple of months securing a small job working as a caretaker and that's mostly what's been eating up all my time (back and forth along with some health stuff, but I won't get into that).
BUT now that all the bureaucracy is out of the way I should be able to get my schedule a little more sorted out and get my focus back on art. Ideally, I'd like to be able to start streaming again (Weekly, perhaps? Maybe Saturdays.) by January BUT WE'LL SEE!
In the meantime: December commissions are open!
Examples of course can be found HERE
As usual, payment is expected $10 in advance with the rest to be paid upon completion and a sketch will be offered for review.
Just note me if interested!

TMI Tuesday!
Posted 11 years agoI haven't done a whole lot of interacting with you guys here lately, and I'm sorry about that. Mostly been sorting through stuff that's been going on over the last couple of months.
To try and change this, I figured I'd give TMI Tuesday a shot!
Ask away!

Sell out (A note on future art)
Posted 12 years agoLooking back and thinking about how I've been handling commissions on this account and I've come to feel like I kind of sold out.
I started taking commissions not because of the money (mostly) but to draw for people and improve the quality of my art as a whole; To get as much mileage as possible. However, I let my pride in getting art out quickly get the better of me and I wound up trying to crank out piece after piece after piece and it burned me out and the quality of my art suffered and I worry I may have alienated people in the process.
Next year I will try and focus on quality over quantity and less on trying to get as many commissions as possible. No more trying to crank out art as quickly as possible, ESPECIALLY when money is involved.
I want to thank everybody who has watched, commented, favourited, requested or commissioned art from me over this last year. You people support me and encourage me to keep drawing and deserve the absolute best I can offer! <3

As for me, I started off 2013 by napping too long. Whoops! ;_;
Depending on how the connection holds up tonight, I might stream a bit later.
