Old Characters Getting Revamps
Posted 9 years agoI am thinking of making a bunch of redraws of old characters of mine. I haven't drawn some of them in AGES. Like my art is way different then it was when I drew some of them.Drawing to an End
Posted 9 years agoMy vacation is slowly coming to an end, and I'm on the last weekend off. I return to work on Monday.
But for now I have some last art projects to work on, and some gifts I wanna draw for people.
(I'd be drawing right now, but I woke up and almost immediately went to town this morning. My energy has been drained from me. RIP. )Emergency Commissions Still Open
Posted 9 years agoI didn't end up meeting the deadline for the bill.
So now I have interest to pay.
On the bright side, I was able to get a new phone that I desperately needed. I put that on my credit card as soon as I paid it off.
The phone is a huge relief to have now, because now I can accept more business inquiries without having to worry about being in a wifi hot spot.

Posted 9 years agoOkay so normally I don't do this, but I'm in a tight spot.
My family is short on funds this month and we are being hit with property taxes and car insurance both due at the end of the month.
I don't really feel comfortable putting the amount out there, but I know my payment is about $967 to help out. That is included with my car insurance and my part to pay for taxes.
If you can help out and take a commission, any bit will help.

http://www.furaffinity.net/view/19439603/Attempting to Adult
Posted 9 years agoYep you read the title right, I'm attempting to "Adult". I need to learn how to do several things and learn to get my shit straight as to, I can't rely on my parents forever. Right now my main priority is trying to save up enough money for going to the eye doctor (I'm in desperate need of an eye exam and new glasses), and going to the dentist (I know for sure I have 2 cavities. And fillings wont be cheap.)
So how is everyone else doing in this shitty place we call a 'world' right now?
*I say this because America is gonna be in shambles no matter who we get for the next president. They are all worthless scumbags. We're screwed no matter what.*Been Drinking all Night and this is odd...
Posted 9 years agoIs it sad that I have been doing shots all night, and yet I haven't gotten 'drunk'? Like, I've surpassed 10 shots of Fireball, but that is over the course of like 4 or 5 hours. And I still have my wits about me. Last time I drank, I literally was a messy fit of giggles and couldn't type to save my life. I bet its because I had a full stomach. (Prior I had had some White Castle burgers.)
What I offer Commission Wise.
Posted 9 years agoI know I just had redone my Commission Sheet not too long ago, but I think I need to reclarify things in it so I might have to update it again.
I offer:
Sketches
Line Arts
Colored Pictures (usually no background)
Telegram Stickers
Reference Sheets
Chibi's
Icons
Badges
Character Designs
Speed Paints
I do not offer these themes:
Water Sports, Scat, Vore, Mecha, Micro, or highly complex designs.Cas's back story is undergoing huge developments.
Posted 9 years agoCas, my fursona, is undergoing some HUGE character development.
Her Feral Story is going to be more hyena related and not so much 'me'. Like I'm linking stuff that was happening to me into the story, but under circumstances that would apply to a hyena.
I'm working really hard on the all the stories of her past to be linked together, nothing is fine yet.Reason why I don't commission people
Posted 9 years agoReasons you don't see me commission people is because of a simple fact: I am VERY nit picky about Cas's design. And with Cas being my favorite character, I can't simply just let design slips go unnoticed. I've commissioned art of her before, don't get me wrong. But sad and true, the artist neglected to look at the "Need To Knows" about Cas. I am VERY particular in her design since she has undergone many changes in a few years time. Now gift art and trades, that's another thing. I wont point out the wrongs, because trades and gift arts are something I don't pay for. All I can say is, I do wish people would pay attention to the design sheet I've made. I made it for a reason.
Got new monitor
Posted 9 years agoWell, technically its a stand in, till I can get the gaming monitor I want. Because after I'm done with this one, my dad will get it haha.

Posted 9 years agoI might be moving myself to this site slowly over time. dA has just really gone down the drain for me.Good news!
Posted 9 years agoI love my parents so damn much. So here's a story of what happened today:
My mom knows I've been trying to save up for a desktop. I really wanted to get one and thus have had my eye on one. I wanted to get the one that was on sale at BestBuy (online) and I worked out a payment deal with my mom if she'd let me get it now while the sale was going. She was okay with it and thus I left to go get it. Well sadly the desktop I was originally going to get was not eligible to be shipped to our area. So I ended up talking to a computer guy and he helped me find one I would be more willing to take. I asked him, since it is an online only offer, if they would price match Newegg.com. He said yes, and I found the same exact computer with the same specks for 200 less. They matched it! So I officially have the computer on the way. I'll be working to pay it off for the next two weeks, then I'll work on getting a monitor for it. :)Fursona Meme
Posted 9 years ago• What is the name of your fursona?
Cas Hyena
• Where did the name of your Fursona come from?
My name to be honest. My name is Cassie, but I like to be called Cas, specially at work, when I am needed.
• What species is your fursona and why did you choose that species?
Fire Hyena, a Spotted Hyena variety. I love spotted hyena's and just to tweak her a bit to suit my standards, I made her a fire hyena. Basically a spotted hyena with altered genetics to control and produce fire on whim.
• What color is your fursona and why? Hair/fur/eye/ect.
Brown/tan fur, with lighter socks and darker spots. A blonde mane and teal eyes.
While I myself am very pale, I loved the colors I had chosen because they looks rather natural looking. (At the time I gave her these colors, I was on a super 'realistic look' spree and they have since stuck.)
• What is your fursona's personality and how does this compare to your RL personality?
This is where I can be a bit wishy washy. My fursona IS me. But any of the emotions can be amplified depending on the mood. If I'm in a bad mood, its amplified in her. (Plus most of the time, I have Cas as a Feral Fur, and to show good measure, I'm not a feral haha.)
• What is one item your fursona owns that is significant to you in RL?
Haha, my fursona doesn't own anything. Like I said, fursona based is in feral form.
• What is one thing you think you would say to your fursona if you could meet?
YOU LOOK SO CUDDLY!
• What is one thing your fursona would say to you if you could meet?
//hyena noises// Unless you mean in a universe where we could both understand each other: HUMAN! HOW DARE YOU TRESPASS BEFORE YOUR GODDESS OF FIRE!
• How has your fursona changed over the years?
Cas has gone from being a sparkle hyena to a hyena/awd mix to a full fledged Fire Hyena. She has undergone a lot of changes, along with myself. I've changed a lot in the years I've had.
• How long have you had this fursona?
Since December of 2009. Just a little over 6 years.
• Would you like to be more like your fursona?
Probably not haha. I don't really want to be a feral human. But I would like to be more open as she is when I role play her on Feral Heart.
Bonus Information:
My fursona originally started off as a joke. I'd been drawing my friends as animals back in the day, on deviantart. I was going to draw my friend as a hyena when I said "What animal?" and she said Hyena. She thought I was asking on what animal I was going to be myself. And since then, the hyena has stuck.
I owe a lot to my friend for this, because she has been an art inspiration and I've known her for years. :)Help out this Burr
Posted 9 years agoOkay so I don't usually do these a lot, because I tend to get annoyed when I see others (usually in large mass) doing it. BUT. I have a very talented friend who has is doing commissions to help bring food into their house. Please check them out here: http://www.furaffinity.net/journal/7339217/
They are VERY good with their artwork, and do a fantastic job on both NSFW and SFW artwork. I literally suggest you check out their gallery, they have great stuff!Gonna make a comeback!
Posted 10 years agoYou all may not remember, but a few years back I was really into the Slenderman fandom and was drawing him all the time. I drew him at home, at work and probably even in my sleep haha.
I plan to make a comeback to that fandom because I will be buying the Slenderman games on SlendermansShadow.com.
You get all 9 of them for $4.99, and I plan to buy them this week when I get paid, if at all possible.
Also a comic I started up a while back, I want to revamp and will be writing it instead.
(It was a base of Slenderman (legit character from CreepyPasta) and SexualOffenderMan (an OC made up, that i no longer take interest in, because I don't fully support the idea of him anymore).
So be on the look out, I want to start messing with stuff soon again.My Friend Has Their Amazing Commissions Open!
Posted 10 years agoA good friend of mine has their commissions open!
If I had the money this week I'd damn well get one! (Haha so poor this week I have to bring a lunch to work next week ; u ;.)
GO GO GO!

I take my payment via PayPal.1/16/16 Update
Posted 10 years agoOkay so here's whats happening as of now.
Next week is the last week I will be paying for my Car insurance. Hopefully. I didn't anticipate the extra $50 dollars, but that might be waved. SO, after next week, starting on the 28th, I will begin saving up for my desktop. Any and all cash is greatly appreciated to help me reach my goal sooner.

I've taken up doing some odd ass chibi style that I used to draw back in 2008 and I'm reforming it.

The new versions are still works in progress, but here is one I tested out with:

Mind you this is still a work in progress.

Also a thing I've noticed about some stuff I've seen lately on here with people posting vent art.
Okay, I'm just as guilty because I've posted vent art as well. And lets be clear, yes I know drawing is a good source to help us relieve the stress and all. Drawing can really take the edge off and help us calm down and slowly go from boiling to simmering to close to calm waters. I get it. I truly do. Yes. But one thing I don't understand is, if you are going to post vent art, one that is defiantly showing signs that you are truly not okay with a lot of mentions of death and so on, why wont you talk to people who offer to listen? I've seen many a pictures in a the few years I've been on this site where people leave death mentions and people get concerned and offer to listen and all the responses are either "No I'm good." or "I'm fine." Bloody fucking hell. If your drawing death and choosing your fursona to represent the death, I'd say that you are far from fine. If you don't want people commenting on it since you either ignore them or just don't want to talk to them, then why not disable the comments? We have that option now-a-days here.
Let me also be frank with this: This is NOT aimed at any of my watchers or people I'm watching. I know that would be the first thing some of you would jump to, since I've seen some vent arts posted recently by some of you. NO its not you. This has been a long time coming from me. A year or so to be exact. I never said anything because I just thought I'd start drama if I did, or the person would feel bad and do something stupid because of it. This is something that I have been mulling over in my mind for a year or so. And I'm finally voicing it. So please don't think its anyone in particular.
With all the shit that has happened to me in the last year, this year needs to start off right for me. So I'm just asking out of curiosity for why people don't turn off comments. It really just boggles the mind for me. Because if I post vent art, I'm always happy if someone cares about me enough to ask what's wrong and I'll let them know. People only ask if they care. That's the thing. People Ask Because They Care. So when you ignore or just flat out refuse to talk to them about your situation it kinda hurts them. I've been in that boat to, I've offered to help friends and I've been completely shut off from them because they don't want my help.
I don't know. Maybe I've even lost my point of asking here now. I just. I'm so confused as to why people post their vents which can be in some cases, very worrisome to their friends, and they refuse to talk about it.
I guess I'll shut up, I think I've trailed off from the point.
