Well I certainly have been off for a while haven't I? I've been making my rounds here a bit with getting in touch with folks and whatnot but I've been REALLY busy as of late. But with what you may ask? Well:

1.) Job stuff. Quite so! I left my old job for something better and higher end. I was living comfortably with it for about 4 months until I had to get transferred. Now that sounds like a bad thing but honestly its not, it only shook up my schedule a bit. Could it be better? Yeah for sure but yet I still am having pretty solid hours and my bills are being paid so I absolutely cannot complain. Still its kept me from doing art more often. Which brings me to my next point

2.) Art stuff. I know I've been getting a lot of new followers lately and I'm very glad you're wanting to watch me (Although I'm certain the tits didn't have anything to do with it right? Haha, I jest). With that being said, I have actually been practicing but thats just it, its just been sketch after sketch with me. I haven't made a full piece in about a whole year. I'm just trying to learn how to make better poses that add more life and depth to it while also trying to improve anatomy. That last one sounds silly from the viewpoint of what I usually draw here haha. So thats why I haven't uploaded anything in a long time, its all practice work that'll probably not see the light of day save for a few pics here and there. Once I get comfortable with drawing, then comes my coloring practice which you'll see more for sure

3.) General stuff. I'm almost done I swear haha. Yes, trying to get my life together has proven to be a very difficult task. I found out that my mother has a form of cancer and is going for treatment soon but I've been remaining optimistic after doing a little research. I've been trying to get my social life together as well but it sucks since a lot of people I'd love to hang around with more often are way out of state. Well that does make get together's more fun and exciting. Anyhow, everything has been going okay on this end despite the uphill battles lately and I've kept to be pretty positive as of late, which is always welcome. I hope all of you are doing well, hope to upload a few things here and there to see if any progress has been made. I'd much love any feedback

Wow so I haven't posted anything in a long long time, and I'm way overdue with that. I still got things going that I'm trying to sort out like this crappy job and trying to get things settled at home since there was a lot that transpired since my time of going dark. But its all good, I've still be drawing here and there but I'd like to make it more frequent. Dunno if I'd do anything with Taka anymore though, I think I'll just draw her whenever, not really feeling it there.

Anywho, I got my birthday coming up and I'm kinda not too full of excitement for that haha. Its whatever really, must be a side effect of getting older. I'll be doing something for myself though thats for sure. Gotta treat yo 'self as they say. I also have a few uploads to do here in a bit, it'll take me some time to sort them all out though, but I'll deliver.

For now I hope you all are doing well and I also am aiming to be a bit more active here. I dunno if I'll succeed but I'm gonna try

Really glad that ordeal is done! Man I was already getting scared from what was happening, not gonna lie

So basically Hurricane Matthew was coming by to party at a Cat 4. For those who don't know, Cat 4 hurricanes are the next thing from being catastrophic. So we were prepared for the worst. I only slept for 1 and half hours after work to be woken up by my parents the day before it hit to go out with them to places to find plywood. For those who live in Florida like I do, I cannot stress enough the value of investing in hurricane shutters. It is so damn stressful to be stuck in a Home Depot at 6:30 in the morning looking for plywood to find out they have nothing. Also, all the stores were out of water (And beer too, big surprise haha) so that was also something I can't stress enough on too. So we ended up actually getting some and meanwhile I was having a bit of an anxiety attack from everything going on, lack of sleep, potential damage to our home, possibly evacuating but I got myself together and got things prepared with my family. We were constantly watching the weather channel about what Matthew was doing, hoping to some benevolent being that it would move towards the east coast, away from all of us

It sorta did when Friday hit. We were told that at Friday around 4-5 pm, the winds would pick up. Well I had barely any sleep that night as well too since we had to get up early to do the last preparations and after all that I napped it tough. I woke up around 4 and nothing. So I got up, decided to plug my PS4 back in and played Bloodborne and waited to see what happened next. The winds didn't pick up until around 8 and they were tropical storm winds at best. Turns out, Matthew's winds were strongest right next to the eye and there was a distinct possibility it would go west and really mess us up badly. What ended up happening is that it turned slightly east and dispersed. In turn, it actually weakened a tad bit and we only got hit with Tropical Storm force winds. We got REALLY lucky in all honesty

Back to normalcy for now though, I'll see if I can't upload a few pieces of work, I've just been seriously busy as of late

I'm looking to commission a piece for myself since I still really haven't celebrated my birthday yet save for a couple of fun instances (Thanks to the friends who did that!) So I've decided to go ahead and get myself a little something. If anyone is open for comms or can point me into s direction I'd be most grateful ^.=.^

I haven't drawn anything in about two weeks. My skill seems to have completely diminished and I can't even draw a head anymore, much less muzzles and such for the content here. I need help with this as I need some sort of guide or a process or something to get back to speed. Its really starting to bother me highly

Well I'm doing okay now, still recovering from the events that had happened and of course fighting back depression as per usual. I got out and cleaned my car today so I actually feel kinda good about that. Its the little things really

So I'm working hard on my art once more, trying to get past feeling tired from the full time work at my job and learning as much as I can, theres still a lot of things I may need help with but I know a lot of the people who help me on a normal basis is quite busy with work and school and such. At any rate, I'm just glad I'm doing better, hopefully I'll be 100% by next week. For now I'm gonna get started on my work, I'll have something to upload soon enough

Sorry, I hate posting things like this but I honestly don't have anywhere else to go. I'm constantly tired and I'm worried that I'm driving away the people I care about most. A lot of my friends don't seem to talk and I worry its because of me

Well regardless of that, I'm doing my best to get that YCH fully finished. Its almost there but I'm just seriously drained, physically but mostly mentally. I'm not sure what to do really. I'm doing my best to get back up and running, hopefully you'll see that soon

Alright so I'm trying to get practicing but motivation is very sparse and hard to obtain it seems. I'm trying to figure out how I should go about practicing besides just ya know, actually doing it. I understand that but I feel as if I'll be missing something important if I just go and do it. I'm having a hard time with poses, doing them from imagination that is. I've been told before that if I have problems with drawing from the imagination, I'm still a beginner. Understandable it seems but poses are a bitch and a half sometimes. I get basic structure and such but actually doing them without a ref is beyond tough. I tried looking into figure drawing and such but it seems to just go over my head (Like a lot of things sadly). I tried looking at some books too but so far things are evading me

I'm really stuck on this and giving it all I got and then some but I'm having such a hard time with practice and such, its really starting to get to me. Does anyone have any sort of suggestion for me on how to go about practicing? Or maybe can explain figure drawing in a way that seems to cater to my thought process. Its possible that I might be overthinking it

After I had gone in to do my next test a 3rd time (I failed again by the way) my car decided that it was going to die right then and there. So after getting pretty livid about it, I got it checked out and thankfully it was just the battery. One problem, it costed me $165, money I am not able to throw around so lightly. I've been set back so badly that I think the only thing I can eat for the entire week is noodles. I'm so upset that I can't even see straight.

So to try to fix this issue, I am going to try my best to take commissions. I really need the money as my eating habits are bad enough, I only eat one meal per day and its starting to catch up to me

I've decided that Taka will no longer be drawn. Due to some events and some pretty important decisions that are important to me, she will only be drawn in personal pieces and anatomy studies. However, the characters here are still getting drawn, just taking Taka out of the equation

I fear that I may have messed up already sadly.

Okay so I know don't really post at all and theres a reason for that. My sketch backlog is terrible. I never finish anything because it either A.) Looks good as sketch and lining it will ruin it or B.) I have to completely scrap it and say fuck it.

On top of that, I just haven't felt like drawing anything hyper or what can be considered "Sexy". Literally everyone I know does far better than I do so why should I try? Seems pretty pointless to me. I try a lot, I work hard yet I still get nowhere

Basically, point being, I'm not going to be doing any work here for a while. If you'd like to unwatch due to inactivity, I completely understand, no need to clutter the list right?

Tired of everything I do being such utter shit. Guess I'm not really cut out for this huh?

Hey everyone (\o.=.o I know I've been pretty dead here for a good while but I have been working on some pics but lemme explain whats been going on

Okay so work has been pretty hellish as of late, what with my manager making it an extremely hard time for me to get a raise, hour confusion, poor scheduling, and of course, working with a transfer who has been given the clear to push me as hard as he wants and believe me its been seriously tough. I'm on the hunt for a new job as the moment as well but of course that doesn't mean I won't be doing pics here! I've been straying away from the mature scene lately to really put my skills to the test and all that good stuff so we'll see what happens

Also, I've been working on a few new characters that I think you might like! Yes, they will have their assets don't you worry -.=.^ I'm kinda excited to get that out to you all. Secondly, I'm still thinking about doing outfit commissions. Again I love to design outfits for characters so if you want something stylish or maybe even pretty, we can work together on that ^.=.^

Alright thats enough out of me for now, hope you all are well this wonderful Friday!

I just had this idea that maybe some of you want to get in on. I love making outfits for characters, coming up with designs that can be tasteful, cool and stylish to even the more revealing kinds. So heres the idea, I design an outfit for your character, a full body pic with flat color, all you have to do is give me an idea of what you like, sorta like a theme if you will (If you want a long coat, or maybe a hoodie, just throw some ideas around, we can even talk about it!). Depending on how complex the character is and the outfit, I'll charge a little extra for that but for the most part, I'd say around $15-$20 an outfit.

If you have any suggestions to add on to this idea or if you want to hop on it, go ahead and comment down below! ^.=.^

Okay so I haven't posted anything in a good while here and I can explain that one. It be work, work likes to keep me from doing anything haha, but its gotta be done. Now thats not to say that things won't be done because thats not true, it'll just take me a bit as I'm quite physically exhausted. However I do have a few new things to share soon. Also to my commissioners, do forgive me for being very late, I just haven't had time to draw as I wasn't expecting to work 40 hours a week and then some.

Thats all I wanted to get out, wanted to you to make sure that I wasn't dead or something haha. I'm also open for any ideas if you wanna share em, like what would you like to see out of my characters?

My very good friend  Sikafox is doing a YCH in order to help themselves out of a financial situation and they are a fantastic artist all around with everything they do! If you want an amazing 2 character picture then check here: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/15893884/ I guarantee you won't regret it

Its been a while everyone, sorry I haven't been so active, its been due to me being greatly busy with my job as well as some life stuff and its been a big stressor on me as of late but worry not because I'm alright. On to the important things

First off, my computer has finally died like I knew it would. It was acting kinda funky lately with random blue screens, slow down, etc. and I knew the hard drive was going to fail and it did. So what does that mean to you? Well if you're a commissioner, that means that there is going to be a set back with the progress of your work. I severely apologize especially since I could have prevented data loss but didn't. This has been a valuable lesson indeed. However! I have a way to theoretically get back that data. I'm not holding by breath but it could work

Secondly, my Birthday is coming up. Reason why I mention this is because I might be away from the PC the whole day. I also say might because theres a good chance everyone local to me will be too busy to do anything. Either way, thought I'd mention it just incase anyone wanted to get to me about anything and then suddenly I'm not there

I'm still open for commissions and whatnot, especially since that I probably have to replace parts on my PC again and I really could use the help.

One last thing: Thank you again guys for showing interest in my work, I've gotten a good influx of new watchers and that is very uplifting to me, means I'm doing something right it seems haha

Check out my friend here:  ONEintheinfinite whos doing 11 dollar sketch commissions and they look brilliant! Do take a look for me will you? ^.=.^

Okay so I need a bit of money because I got some plans so I went ahead and made a YCH for the folks who love hyper stuff ^.=.^ Both slots 1 and 2 are $20 and if you're interested, go ahead and note me! Do keep in mind that it is first come first serve. Thanks

I think I'll take another round of suggestions. Which character do you want to see more of and what subject?

I also have another character or two coming up o they will be up for suggestions too soon ^.=.^

Okay so this new tablet is great, I'm very happy with it (For those wondering its a Wacom Intuous). Now my only issue is getting started with it. I want to try to skip the whole sketching phase via traditional work. Normally my process is drawing it out on paper, scanning it, then lining it out on SAI. Well now I want to cut out the traditional part entirely but thats where my problem arises, I don't really know how to sketch. Is there anyone who could possibly show me or direct me to somewhere where I can learn how to properly do it?

Okay so theres something I do gotta say, I'm not happy with what I have made in the past month. I seriously love all the support I've gotten but I need to study different parts first before going over full body stuff once more. However I will have more to upload soon that isn't my work. I'll also be around, just not posting much.

Until then, I hope you all have a great Christmas and stay safe ^.=.^

ALSO: Trades will be done tonight so anyone expecting anything, be ready

Thank you so very much! I'm glad that you have taken an interest into this page and the content within ^.=.^ I've got a lot to finish so expect some pics soon!

Also, I'll be doing my first YCH pic to get the ball rolling on my work soon so keep an eye out!

Thats all I wanted to say along with that I'll be doing my best to give quality work for you all. Thanks again!

Okay so to generally catch people up on whats happening in this neck of the woods, I am going to be very very busy in the next week. I have to work Black Friday and its going to be a very stressful time for me. Now thats not to say that I won't have uploads and the rest of my trades done before then so those who are currently waiting, fret not, I'm getting to all of it tomorrow.

Now to go ahead and set a ground rule here. I will not be doing requests until further notice. As much as I love to give out free things to people, I tend to put quite a lot of time into my work (Even though its not the greatest). It helps me to become better yes but right now I can't be just throwing free things at people for right now. However, that will change in the near future when I have more time to spare. If you do want art from me, we can do a trade or you can commission me. Note me if you are interested and we can talk prices and such but for now, no more requests at this time. Forgive me if I sound like I'm being pretentious or sounding like an ass but I too have time that I have to dedicate to a huge project, studies, work, and smaller projects. Again this will change later down the line

Other than that, nothing else going on here. If I go off the radar again, you'll know where I'll be! At the least, don't expect me to be back until the 30th. For now, have a wonderful upcoming Thanksgiving and stay safe! I'll try not to get trampled while working haha

Since I'm now getting back into the grove of things, would anyone be interested in an art trade? Maybe a request? I'm just looking for more motivation and I love working with others so please don't hesitate to give a note or comment here! Thanks again

Well I don't think there will be new art from me for a while. Everything I make just looks like failure to me and I can't accept that. Sorry to disappoint anyone who might have taken an intrest in my work.
