Why no new Poketf auctions
General | Posted 8 years agoIt's not my hand again, thankfully!
The reason why I haven't done a new auction the last couple weeks isn't that I want to stop the series, but that I am possibly being hired for a large project. I can't say too much yet and I don't know if it's going to be official, but I can't have the poketfs going while also working on a second big project.
That's not to say I'm stopping the series! It just means that auctions will no longer be regular, and it might take me a bit longer to get to them. Would definitely be a shame to call it quits after just the first starters!

Resting the hand
General | Posted 8 years agoNext week's auctions need to be delayed by a day, maybe two ;-; Between them and commissions, I haven't put down my pen for awhile, and borked my hand. It hurts to move my fingers XD And I can hardly bend my last two. Resting yesterday didn't help much, so I'm hoping one more day will help.
Making a RedBubble, any suggestions?
General | Posted 8 years agoI can't use your characters for it because copyright reasons of course, but is there anything you guys would want me to draw for stickers, shirts, whatever? I already have the page and am making some gecko designs for stickers, but I'd love to hear what you'd want <3
Points balance
General | Posted 8 years agoWe got people with points! If you buy something that's at least $30 from me, whether it's one piece or multiple pieces in the same day, you get a point worth $1USD to be able to use for discounts on future buys(not including YCHs or adopts)
To check our your points, you can check out this page:
https://docs.google.com/document/d/.....it?usp=sharing
Just a reminder that points are transferable!

Possibility of Discounts?
General | Posted 8 years agoI've talked it over with a couple of my friendos(you know who you are) about the idea of having a point system with my art, and want to hear your opinions on it before it actually becomes a thing >.>
-How it works is that if you buy a commission/auction/adopt from me for $30, you get a point, and then an additional point for every $10 more on that commission/auction/adopt. (so if the SB of an auction was $40, you'd automatically get two points if you win at the SB)
-It also counts if you're buying multiple commissions at once. If you get two $15 commissions or whatever on the same day, it will count as the $30 you need for a point.
-Each point is worth a dollar, and points can be used for discounts on future commissions(but not the one you get the points with. Can't buy a $30 and then discount it to $29 with the point you get).
-You can get up to a 30% discount on commissions using points.
-Points can't be used on auctions, other YCHs, or adopts.
-The points will be transferable! If you don't want to use them, you can give them to a friend. Just have to let me know so I can keep track.
-I'll have a page(probably a google doc) that people can look at to see their points
-You'll still get points if you bought something in April that would count, but I can't track further than that :(
Let me know what you think in the comments! :D If you think it's a good idea, we'll give it a shot ^^

What kind of adopts?
General | Posted 8 years agoIn between commissions on my work days, I've been making adopts, as you can tell XD It lets me draw what I want while still being productive(I love designing so much. MMMMYES). I only have so much time for NSFW art, so I occupy myself with adopts during my main work hours when I'm waiting to hear back on other things or don't have much.
ANYWAY, that's not the point of this journal. The point is to ask what kinds of critters you like. More weird things like my OTAs? The cheaper ones like the sale dragonesses where I use a base? And what *kind* of animals?
If you have any suggestions, I'd love to hear them in the comments ^^

Health Update-not good news
General | Posted 8 years agoFor the last week or so, I've been having some stomach problems. Basically every time I ate or drank something other than water, if I sat a certain way, if I stood for too long, or laid down on the wrong side, I'd have a lot of pain and nausea.
Lost a lot of weight in a few days because it hurt too much to eat >.>
Also why I haven't been streaming. Hard to focus
Finally broke down and went to a doctor on Tuueeesday, and Iiii have either stress-induced GERD or a stress ulcer. So I'm on medication now and need to learn how to chill tf out, apparently.
It has not been a good year for me, my guys, gals, and everyone on the spectrum or off it.
To top it all off, now that I have a new tablet, my computer itself is failing too and I'm still a few hundred away in savings from being able to get a new one.
No wonder I have an ulcer
ANYWAY. I adjusted my schedule from 'commissions every day all day' to 'every day all day except for friday'. Not sure how it'll work out yet, but worth a shot?

GOTTAM IT
General | Posted 8 years agoMy anniversary of joining FA was two days ago and I forgot! ;-; Happy one year!
Wacom drivers are shyt, apparently
General | Posted 8 years agoYou guys remember: http://www.furaffinity.net/journal/8132332/ yeah?
Well I finally got my new tablet delivered...And spent seven hours trying to get the driver to work. The instructions are easy enough to follow, just, y'know, install the driver from the disk or from the website.
Except my computer can't find the driver now that it's installed. I go in to set up my tablet, and it's ~no driver file found~
So I spend the next hours uninstalling and reinstalling because maybe I somehow did something wrong, but no, still not working. Time to google fixes for it.
I've tried every fix I came across. I've reset the service, I've 'killed' it, played around in properties(which said it was running smoothly, the fekkin' liar), I've summoned Satan...Still nothing. The most I've gotten was, instead of it not finding the driver, apparently it can't read that the tablet's plugged in to the USB port THAT I KNOW WORKS BECAUSE I'VE TESTED IT.
Sure, I could *technically* still use the tablet without the driver, but no driver means no pen pressure/sensitivity, none of the quick buttons will work, I can't turn off multitouch...So no I really can't use it and I am incredibly frustrated. Going into sensory overload right now.
If anyone knows some obscure demon magic to help me out...Please

It has happened, my guys-tablet death
General | Posted 9 years agoMy tablet's problems have gotten bad suddenly, to the point where it's almost unusable, so it looks like it's time to retire it.
I've already ordered a new one! So no worries. It should be here in about a week. (Wacom Intuos Pro :D)
Until then, I'll do what I can with my old potato, it'll just be slower.
This is really going to set me back, so I'll have to draw hard to make up for it ;-; If you can(and would like to!) help me out, I'm going to start taking on more commissions. Or maybe toss a few to my patreon: https://www.patreon.com/TheElderTrinity
Right now, anything is appreciated! ^^

What content do you want to see from me/why do you watch me?
General | Posted 9 years agoMy art on FA is pretty much...Everywhere, and it has been since I got here(almost a year ago! Just a couple more weeks! :D).
I'm hoping to settle down a bit, and be more consistent in what I draw on FA, maybe make more of a name for myself while I'm at it :P
So what kind of art do you want to see from me? Any particular species that I haven't drawn before?

Patreon & Trello
General | Posted 9 years agoSince I've had some irl things going on and couldn't stream, I instead set up some accounts!! :D
Patrons will get bonus arts and some other rewards. I'd appreciate it if you check it out, even if you don't or can't pledge ^^ https://www.patreon.com/TheElderTrinity
And if you want to know what I'm up to in the art world, I've set up a Trello. I've been meaning to for a bit, since it just seemed helpful to keep track of things: https://trello.com/b/0IVh7MKX

I poofed
General | Posted 9 years agoMyep, got all this stuff going on online, and I just disappear. I was really hella sick for a few days with a stomach virus. At one point I slept for almost a full 24 hours but I'm pretty sure I'm mostly better now. Just tired and get worn out easily, zero appetite.
So today, since I'm pretty much good to go, I'm going to start catching up to everything. Missed notes, auction that went off a couple days ago that I ended up sleeping though, working on commissions. I'll probably be doing a stream today to help me catch up

Today's stream cancelled
General | Posted 9 years agoWith the snow storm coming up, it looks like we might lose power for a few days, so today will be spent preparing for the storm instead.
Thinking about making a Patreon-
General | Posted 9 years agoAnd wondering what sort of rewards you'd like to see from me if you were supporters. If it were something I did, I'd want to give you things that I knew you wanted.
So if you have any suggestions, please leave a comment ^^
*Note that I won't see your comment as you obligating to pledge. This is, so far, a hypothetical situation

Christmas Sale!
General | Posted 9 years agoOr holiday sale, rather! :D
With the holidays coming up, a few extra dollars would be hella welcome, and art would also be a pretty good gift, right? >.> Right?
$2 off colored headshots
$5 off colored fullbody art, with $2 off each extra character.
*additional $5 off NSFW for colored fullbody, but long waiting times
$20 off colored comic pages with background
Please note that price is still influenced by character complexity, and the discount is taken off from the quote, not from the base price, so if the usual fullbody is $20, and your character design would raise the price by $5, once the discount was put into place, the price would still be $20 and not $15.
I'll only be opening up a few sale slots for now, comment if interested

skiesofsilverArtist Spotlight
General | Posted 9 years agoJust wanted to draw some attention to an artist who does some really awesome artwork.
FeatheredClaw mostly does NSFW art, and from what I can tell, with various monster creatures(and lately, Overwatch characters).
FeatherClaw has some really spot-on anatomy with their humanoids, and pieces with character interaction(of any kind..( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) have a way of looking like solid contact. If that makes sense, pretty sure it does.
They're really hella close to 100 watchers, so if any of you could lend a helping hand(paw, claw, hoof, wing, fin, or even tentacle), I think all of us would appreciate it.

Game of Interest-Sacrament!
General | Posted 9 years agoSacrament is an MMORPG game in development by Ferocity Unbound Core Studios. From what I hear, it's their first game and everyone is volunteering to do the work, which is impressive in itself, but the game they're building looks like it's going to be MASSIVE!
What sticks out about it for me is the number of bestial races in the game. Bear(Ursa), Wolves(Lupine), Avians, Lizar. There's so many more, guys. Humans, elves, dwarves, fey. And there are different gods with their own lore too. Just, dang.
Check it out here: http://sacramentgame.com/index.html
THEY ALSO HAVE A PATREON. These guys are putting their free time and more into this, without any pay, so if you could donate anything to help them out, I think both they and I would really appreciate it.
https://www.patreon.com/sacramentgame
I can't quite put into words just how cool it would be to play a game of this size with so much variety, in both race and classes. When this game gets out, you bet your booty I'm going to be playing

Comic Commissions
General | Posted 9 years agoOKAY SO MY INTERNET WENT OUT RIGHT AS I CLICKED SUBMIT SO I GOTTA TYPE IT AGAIN. Not typing all that again, so using shorthand
Computer doing bad, disconnecting from internet all the time and is dying. I was saving up for a new one anyway but Christmas is coming up and will end up taking a dent out of my savings, and still have rent too. EMERGENCY MODE.
I'm now offering comic pages for a flat rate, no matter how many characters or panels you want, as long as it will fit in an 8x10 page. I won't be taking NSFW unless you're willing to wait an ungodly amount of time >.<
$40 USD PER PAGE for a sketched out comic like this style: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/21309731/
$100 PER PAGE for a fully colored, shaded, and background, like these: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/21093014/
http://www.furaffinity.net/view/21230639/
http://www.furaffinity.net/view/21230651/
I know it's a lot, but this is kinda an emergency and comics take a lot out of me. I am 100% WILLING TO ARRANGE PAYMENT PLANS
For now I'm just going to keep working as usual and get what I have now done. Please, please, please post a comment or note me if you're interested
