I'm curious how many people follow me here that plays Final Fantasy XIV. Trying to find more peeps to play with and carry me in Savage lol.

The carrying part is a joke. I've cleared Asphodelos Savage and am currently on P8S Phase 2 near the end of the fight. It's just my group might be falling apart and I want the mount.
( I wanna thank those of you that offered to help ). Group is pushing through so hope I get the clear but I do sincerely hope I get the mount so I can just have White Stone Black playing everywhere I go.

For those interested in my FFXIV character: https://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lode.....cter/25690296/

* * Got the P8S clear. Was fun. I am glad I am not as bad as I thought I was hahaha. * *

Commissions are closed.
I have messages I need to check out but I am not feeling great and need to lay down.
I will check them when I can. Do not send more commission DMs after this time. I will not check them.

Commissions are CLOSED. I just haven't updated the Trello to show it.
Price info, comm info and most answers to your questions are on the Trello.
PLEASE READ IT. I will be responding to messages when I wake up. I will not be taking
every comm requested and for the most part and not taking any super complicated ones.

I got some input about YCH from here and others and it seems the universal choice is, do whatever I want lol.
Well, I will probably do what I did before and do about 5 bidded YCH and go from there occasionally doing template ones while also taking a few comms.
We will see how that works out. I appreciate all the input.

Now, the other question is, how do people feel about adoptables and should I do a few?
I know there is a lot of issues with that especially with ones that are just existing franchise characters with minor touches but I am just wondering
how people in my community would feel about it and what they would want from me if I did it.

Or they don't want it, I just want some input to set my 2023 goals.

I would like to try YCH again but I am curious what people would prefer.
The last YCH did really well for a test run but I am still trying to figure things out.

So would people like unique images to have their OCs in that they auction on and its the one unique image or
would they rather have a template people can use with their OCs but its a default price and many of that same pose will be done.
So basically auction for unique image, pay for a template that many will have.

I am curious to see what people would prefer. Or just both. I dunno.

So like....despite me talking about it a lot. People constantly will comment that the didn't realize I had one?
I thought I was pretty open about it but it seems to go over people's heads ago so:

I HAVE A PATREON. https://www.patreon.com/suirano
All my work is first posted there and you can check it out for $1 or more if you would like.
The works usually get posted publicly after some time and generally its my own forgetfulness or me wanting to touch up the work that delays its public posting.
I am bad at promoting myself :C.

My entire goal with art is that I wish to be able to live off of it decently. I am not trying to be wealthy or popular. I just want to live without fear of losing everything. I have been a digital artist for over 16 years and it is a bit wild to see how far I have come from the early days of 2007. I want to go further creating amazing things. I have slowly been learning animation so I can start doing that as well. Patreon's income allows me to take less commissions which in turn gives me time to learn and do stuff on the side. So yeah, feel free to support if you wish. I just figured I make a straight journal about it since again, people say they don't know I have one.

I honestly thought I was too overbearing with mentioning it tbh. I have considered also making a SubscribeStar just in case.

COMMISSIONS CLOSED. Only taking a few.
PLEASE read the Trello for price, information, etc. about commissions before asking because usually the Trello has the answer. Messaging me does not automatically guarantee you a commission.
Sincere apologies for those who thought they were closed cause of Trello. It's been a bit and I legit forgot about that part.

Hey everyone. I forgot to mention it here so I will do that.

I recently lost my father 2 days ago. It has been a very rough circumstance trying to deal with something like this
as it happened so fast and caught our entire family off guard. That being the case, work is being delayed as I just
try to get my bearings straight and just try to even comprehend any of this.

That being the case, I am not responding to anything commission or art related for the time being. I apologize
for the sudden blockade of communication but I just need to clear my mind and just....try not to break as much
as I have been these past two days.

Thank you.

So people apparently don't know I have one so here is a link to it.
Remember when you join to type ?sui to get into the channels as the first channel you are put into is a purgatory channel I use to keep bots out the main server.

Despite me posting a link to it in a lot of places, people often say how they are unaware I have one? I assumed I mentioned it often.

So here's a journal about it. For $1 or more you can get early access to art I'm doing alongside a Discord where shenanigans happen and stuff. There's a lot of sketches. Man, I'm not good at marketing myself. I'm an idiot.

Y'know, it is funny that no matter how much I try to be friendly, people are always just super terrible and will ghost me for no reason.
It is genuinely frustrating having people claim they want to be friends with you and how you can trust them and talk to them
but then suddenly for no reason whatsoever, they unfollow you or block you or just say nothing to you for days, months and
then years. I do not know why I bother opening up on the internet to people that claim they want to be friends
but I can definitely say I am no longer doing that.

I am genuinely sick of being optimistic to people and hoping for the best and being made a fool of time and time
again when I didn't do anything. Never change internet, you have always been and always will be a massive
disappointment to me.

Commissions be closed now. Those that have messaged I will get to in time.
Price information is here:

https://trello.com/b/fHnirnEu/suirano-work-board

Reminder: Sending me a message does not automatically okay you for a commission regardless of when you send it.

Commissions are open, not many slots tho.
Will choose based on the ideas given so it is not a first come first serve deal.
Messaging me does not guarantee a commission slot.

https://trello.com/b/fHnirnEu/suirano-work-board

Made an account over there. Another art site that is starting out. Hopefully it will do well because I absolutely love what they are doing already.
Feel free to take a look if you want.

I've lived in Raleigh, NC for years and am just now aware that there are a lot of furries here. I honestly thought there wasn't anything like that here given offline I'm a nobody.

Man I'm really bad at anything social related.

Commissions are closed while I check notes.

ALL COMMISSION SLOTS HAVE BEEN FILLED AT THIS TIME. SORRY.

Commission info is here:

https://trello.com/b/fHnirnEu/suirano-work-board

Commissions closed for now while I try to catch up on notes. Might open them back up if slots are still open after I finish this.
To those who messaged, please have patience and give me a bit. I am operating on hardly any sleep.

https://trello.com/b/fHnirnEu/suirano-work-board

Giving me shinies here does not automatically mean you get a commission from me. DO NOT send me shinies and then just bark commission info at me when you didn't even ask for one let alone I even okay it. Especially when I'm not open and am backlogged on others.

It's scummy, it's shitty and it's rude as fuck.

DO NOT DO THAT!!!!!

I am a bad artist.
This is proven scientifically.

That is all.

Hey, feel free to check out my Pillowfort since it finally went public. Pillowfort is basically like a Tumblr alternative but not really.
But yeah, feel free to check it out.

https://www.pillowfort.social/Suirano

Also reminder I do have a public discord server. It's full of nerds tho.

https://discord.gg/eWA3xfe

Hey guys! I have a public Discord server if I never mentioned it. I try to make it fun and enjoyable but I also do enforce my rules.
For the most part, don't be an ass and everything will be fine but feel free to join if you wanna chat with me and watch me be a
miserable sack of shit in real time :D.

https://discord.gg/eWA3xfe


Also I have a Pillowfort for anybody who wishes to follow me. Spreading myself out as much as I can. I will eventually edit my footer to include it.

https://www.pillowfort.social/Suirano

( Currently have a flood of messages. Want to control this first before gauging if I can take more comms )

It's that time again. Commission time.
Send your info in DMs and I will pick the ones that I wanna do. Not trying to overwork myself this month so everyone may not be selected.

Commission info here: https://trello.com/b/fHnirnEu/suirano-work-board

When did I hit 10k watchers?
Why are you even following me? I suck DX.

But nah, I am glad to see people enjoy the stuff I post here. God if only I could get more followers here so I can abandon Twitter. I am honestly absolutely sick of that garbage site.
Be nice to return to something more consistent versus me constantly questioning my talent and ability on Twitter.

It's a question some asked and I never really answered and I decided to give some context to it.

So, there are a few reasons as to why I have redrawn so much older art and why I wish to do more. A lot of art I feel had neat ideas but was executed poorly either in posing, anatomy, or coloring. Over the years my art feels like its improved tremendously and it is great being able to take those old ideas but see them fulfilled in their full capacity due to how I draw now. A lot of art during my time on Tumblr was pretty garbage to me and I hated a lot of it. Being able to redo it and see that idea but flushed out so much better is a feeling that really brings a lot of confidence to me as an artist making me aware I really have grown over the years and I never remained stagnant for the most part.

A lot of new followers have come my way as well and I don't really know what type of content they followed me for or what they expect but its still nice redrawing it because for those people, this is all new. Anyway, hope you guys don't mind all of this and whatever stuff I crap out in the future.
