I wanted to post this one so I could see what kind of themes, kinks and interests yall would like to see more of? I'm finally able to be more consistent with posts and art (if you couldn't tell lol), so I am extremely interested in trying out some new stuff. Also, perhaps I should probably go after some of the new fandoms, but I have been out of the loop for some time. I think after the LoZ art challenge, I might do some art on Undertale and Deltarune, just to rehash the love I've had for the series.

Also, I wanted to know what kind of art you guys followed me for. Was there a specific kink I drew that caught your eye? Was it the body types, themes, or something else entirely? I definitely wanna know! And if there's something that I used to draw and for some reason stopped, let me know in the comments! I'm extremely curious.

I'm also willing to hear and comments, critiques or criticisms as I do want to keep growing as an artist!

Thanks again for sticking with me all these years

That's right, I am officially opening for commissions once again! I have finally gotten the confidence to start working on art again and I'm ready for some work! Please let me know if you're interested in a commission by filling out this form! Commission Request Form and I'll contact you via email. (I wish we got better notifications on here lol)

My commission sheet is still the current pricing and nothing much has changed. If yall have any questions, please let me know~

I used to have a pretty inactive twitter since things have been weird for a while, so I figured I'd go ahead and move to Bluesky. I'll probably still keep twitter, but most likely won't be active on there anymore unless things kinda change for the better (doubt). But if you're interested here's some socials and other platforms I'm on!

Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/shobishudders.bsky.social

Also, what do you guys think about the idea of making a discord server? Sounds like it might be fun.

I'm back lovelies!

As per my last journal, I had to recover from a lot of health issues all at once, and though I'm not technically fully out of the woods yet, I am well enough that I can get back to doing what I love the most! I am mostly recovered from my last wrist surgery, which means I'm ready to draw again, and I've had enough time to think about what I wanna draw and to not let things hold me back from what I want to do. I have characters I want to re-design and some other interests I want to explore.

Ironically, I've been inspired by some creepy/cool artists on YT and it makes me feel that I can kinda just do what I wanna do, criticism be damned. So that's what I'm gonna do - just draw what I want without too much pressure.

With that being said, I'm gonna spend some time getting my commissioners what they deserve to have after being so patient for so long, make sure they're all happy with their pieces, and then start taking on regular commissions again. I'm also going to rework my ToS, write out a real schedule and revamp my commission sheet, so I might have some posts that are oddly timed along with some random stuff I've been doing in the background.

But either way! I'm glad to be back and stay tuned for our regularly scheduled programming.

Hi everyone,

I suppose if you've been following me for a while, you might know that I've been fighting against my wrists for quite some time and it finally came to a head. I officially have to get surgery done on them if I'm able to continue art.

What that means is that I'll basically be on hiatus until the surgery on both wrists are done and I'm healed enough to get back to doing art. The good news is that I've already done the left wrist, so my right wrist is due to be done in January right after my birthday, so I'll be able to at least work on my left side dexterity in the meantime.

As far as art stuff goes, I do have 2 commissions that were in progress when this happened and I've already spoken to them and they are cool with waiting until things have calmed down to finish their pieces. Honestly, I was going to have to take a break after this was done but life happened kick me while I was down. Right before this, our house was flooding, so our household was practically homeless while the damage got fixed. On top of that, I got fired from my day job due to discrimination towards me (go figure) and all of my savings were gone in one fell swoop. Life events just kinda kept happening rapid fire and I thought I was in a better state until the carpal tunnel started to become severe enough to cause muscle spasms and seizing, which is where I'm at right now. Typing hurts, hold things hurts, putting on my clothes hurt and I'm just trying to take it easy until surgery time.

So once again thanks for being patient with me through my ups and downs. Hopefully, whatever happens in the future after the procedure is done, I at least wont have to worry about having to take a step back from art stuff so I can use my limbs again.

I'll be back in February 2024, so until then, y'all take care and be good.

Yeah, as if that doesn't make me sound like some corporate shill lol

Anyway, just kinda wanted to touch base with some of my current and future clients about some minor changes in what I'm going to do for the next six months. I took a bit of a break for mental health reasons and decided that I need to shake up how I operate, since it's currently not working for me and what I want to do. Basically, the long and short of it is that I'm taking a break from doing Ref Sheets.

While I certainly enjoy bringing characters to life in this manner, it is extremely time consuming for me and I tend to lose track of other things I want to do and need to do in my personal life. After I finish the ones I'm working on, I'm going to take at least a 6 month break from doing any reference or character sheet art before I'm willing to start back up again. This is in no way any particular person's fault and I sincerely value every client I've worked with - y'all are great.

On the other end of that, I want to also focus on some personal projects along with any other commission that comes along the way. I'll probably also edit my profile page to reflect those changes when I have a chance to do so.

Thanks for understanding!

Welcome back! I hope everyone had an enjoyable New Years or at least on that was less stressful than the rest of the year we're happily leaving behind.

I've decided to revamp some things on my end and add some reasonable expectations as well as a better schedule hopefully soon. First thing I've decided to do is to try giving YCHs another shot, especially now that I have improved greatly since my last attempt years ago and I believe doing once a month might be a great place to start. They will be pin-up/centerfold generally, though I may make some changes along the way.

Secondly, I would like to be able to do themes every month and improve my drawing/posting times. I believe if I stick to a regimen like I did in the past, I will be much better for it in the long run.

Lastly, I've also decided to do adoptables which will running alongside YCH stuff as kind of a fun character creation option that I feel I have neglected doing for some time.

These are all big changes, but I feel as though shaking up my comfort zones and trying something new might not be such a bad idea. There are many things I want to try and I certainly want to continue improving as I continue.

Thanks for sticking with me all this time! I hope we can all look forward to a better New Year!

As promised! I'm opening for Commissions and Requests for the year! It should be business as usual aside from the minor changes to the commission info that will be included with the 2021 Commission Sheet. The biggest change is that I will be running through emails only for Commissions as it is much easier to keep track of everything instead of notes - especially when FA is down and I need to communicate with my clients. You can still send me a note on FA to contact me about info, but emails will be what I'll use to contact you if we've decided on a commission to work on.

I do have a Terms of Service and working with me means that you agree to the terms therein. I had to create this solely for many issues that seem to always crop up, so please give that a read if you plan to commission me. You can find that info any time on my Profile as well as -->HERE. The new commission sheet will be coming out moments after this journal is posted as well as an updated link to the ref sheet in case I change my featured submission.

Aside from that, lemme know what kinda stuff you guys would like to see more of; I really do consider everything I'm sent. I'm always up for trying something new!

Thanks and see ya around!

Happy Holidays all! I know this year has been hard on everyone and I just wanted to say a big ol thank ya for sticking around through it all. And thanks to my new watchers!
Like many others I lost a few loved ones between the middle of last year and this year and I tell ya, its been hard not to just dissolve in a puddle of depressive goo at times. But like everyone else, I've had to just roll with the punches this year has given us, so I wanted to say I understand how shit this whole shebang has been and I'm proud of ya for pulling through.

I'll be passing out before the clock strikes midnight (I'm an essential worker), so I wanted to post a thing about what I hope to accomplish next year and some minor changes to stuff.

Starting on the 3rd, I'll be opening for commissions for the year and tentatively opening for requests again. Basically with the commissions info, there will be a link to the new commission sheet with some price changes, so there will be a few increases in prices, but nothing ridiculous. Also, I'll make sure to link my Terms of Service along with some other info in the description when its posted. With requests, I figure I could just do one or two a month, depending on the needs of the image and whatnot. So all of that will either be in another journal or posted with the new commission sheet and info post.

In the meantime, you guys have fun, drink, be merry (but be safe about it) and give ol 2020 a big fucking middle finger and a loud ass "FUCK YOU" as the clock strikes 12, wherever you are. Thanks again for hanging around for all these years!

After these last couple of commissions, I will be closing for the holidays until further notice, thank you!

Happy Halloween!

Just to let you guys know, I will be taking a break from commissions for the holiday season as working on them seem to be causing a bit of stress when piled up with everything else I have going on in my personal life. It's a small break so I can actually enjoy spending time with my loved ones instead of stressing out on projects. I'm at the point where I'm starting to feel burnt out and I would rather take some 'me' time and recenter my focus than to continue to push myself into oblivion.

In the meantime, I'd like to work on my own interests and let my creativity flow. I really would like to get back to drawing stuff that I'm into as well as other stuff I think is fun to do.

Thanks for understanding!

OTHER NEWS!

Between working on commissions, I have been working on a species which I seem to be able to pour in some creativity with. Characters alone don't often give me the sort of mojo that creating this new world and creatures have done, so I've decided to continue with them, which gives me something to selfishly draw while still making content I enjoy. For now, this species will be closed until I see fit otherwise, mostly just to protect the lore and whatnot that I've got going on.

For now, please welcome the Jakoons into the airspace! I've had some help with working on designs and whatnot, so there will be personal characters who belong to their respective owners. I'll be posting them soon, along with any sketches of the characters so far, so look for those as well as ref sheets for specific characters of note.

As per the last journal, I said I would try to post updates as necessary. So as of right now, 4 out of 5 commission slots are filled - two of which are currently being worked on.

1) - 2 Page Comic (Currently being lined)
2) - Ref Sheet (Needs redesigning)
3) - Gift Art (Not paid for)
4) - To be Determined
5) Empty

This is basically where I am with commissions. Comics and ref sheets take the longest to complete due to their nature and are currently taking up most of my time. (Not that it's a bad thing as I want them to look good).

Also, on a side note, I wanted to mention that I will not be open for requests for a while. They are fun to do and you guys have some great ideas out there, but I have to prioritize the commissions for a while. Thanks for understanding guys!

I'll also try to post the sketches that I've been doing in between both my day job and art.

My computer problems are basically over! After a long time of waiting, time, money and stress, my computer troubles are finally under control. Everything is finally new in my case and it can actually function how it is supposed to. I have not tried streaming, yet, but I can tell things will be going well by the fact that I've already tried other CPU intensive programs and everything went well. In fact, the only problem I've been having is with steam crashing games so it can restart, but that's a typical day for Steam. I'll also be working on fixing my tablet drivers and eventually, I'd like to get a replacement. Its not as smooth as I remember, but Windows 10 has a way of fiddling with things it ought not to.

I would also like to say that commissions are finally, seriously open. I will try to post slots whenever necessary (currently at 1/5 at the moment) so that I can be as transparent as possible with the workload. Thanks for everyone being so patient during this time. I can finally get back to drawing all the fun and weird stuff I normally do, with some added nonsense I got interested in during my hiatus. So, look forward to all those things.

As always, thank you guys so much for continuing to stick around! I do appreciate each and every one one of you!
