Had my wisdom teeth out today.

Overall I'm doing pretty well. The top two had already erupted, and the bottom two were impacted. And I can have vicodin without vomiting (because I'm allergic to codine)!

I'll be back to posting horny when I've recovered.

Hey nerds

I'm gonna be at Anime Detour this weekend.

The weekend after? I am getting all 4 wisdom teeth removed because I never had that done and now they're a problem, woo!

So, uh, if things are slow, that's why.

Guess where I'm gonna be?

Yes! AMKE!

I'll be at Anime Milwaukee with my usual buddy, Dapper Raptor Studios. Come on by for some prints, art dolls, and fun stuff.

It's commission time!

Hello all!

I know it's been a while since my last journal and I'll just say it's been a pretty busy while. There were the holidays, travel, and more holidays. Plus a convention.

So here I am again.

For those following convention stuff, I will be at:
Anime Milwaukee
Anime Detour
NoBrand
Anime Iowa

Provided it's safe for me to be there with the pandemic and all.

the next thing is that I have a surprise coming up soon! I'm going to be doing a special icon sale for Valentine's Day and I should have everything together soon to be able to start working on it all, so keep an eye out for that.

Other than that there's not much happening. I hope everyone has been well and is weathering the winter just fine.

Thank you all for supporting the hotel this year!

We will see you all again next year ;D

That's right! Hostage Hotel is hiring!

Well, whether you end up working there is... up for debate.

There are some changes this year due to IRL scheduling so be sure to read carefully:

I am taking 10 slots per week. There will be days that I cannot work on them (due to either a convention or family things), so I don't want to take money and be unable to deliver. I will happily announce when slots are open for the week.

Each ID badge will involve stats, whatever bondage you like, and a little story bit about their... employment. Don't worry, guests will get their own ID too ;D Whether you like it or not, you're part of the Hotel now!

Price - $60/each
-Single character only
-Extra charge may apply for extra wings/complex character design/etc.

Will Do
-Bondage
-Breathplay
-Hypno
-Peril

Will NOT Do
-Vore
-Watersports/Scat/Bloodplay/Needleplay
-Characters who are or appear to be under 18
-Diapers

I reserve the right to decline your request if it makes me uncomfortable.

Hello!

So, unfortunately it looks like my October might end up being very busy between (hopefully) a convention and my fiance's surgery.

THAT SAID - Hostage Hotel will continue this year in a very different way. I have something that will be less time-consuming for me but hopefully still fun for everyone. I'm sort of building on it right now, putting everything together.

I'll make an announcement and such when the time comes, but since we're a month and change away, I figured I would announce something.

Have a good day!

Since I just had to submit a takedown request, here's my stance on reposting.

If you're going to repost commissions you paid for in your own galleries, fchan, or e621 you need to credit me and link back to my page.

Do not repost art of mine you did not commission/pay for.

Seriously don't repost my stuff.

So, my tablet is dead as fuck. Doesn't show it's connected, pen doesn't work unless it's plugged in, and it's lost all functionality unfortunately.

As such, uh... I can't really do art to raise money for a new one. All I can offer is my etsy, because stuff is already made and I can just ship it out.

Thank you for any help you can give, I want to get back to drawing, but it's just not happening right now. I'm sorry for begging and the inconvenience.

https://www.etsy.com/shop/HeroesOfNowhere

(PS, I'm looking to get a XP-Pen Deco 03, trying to raise $100 so I can get it. I've looked at a refurbished Intuos too, but I don't wanna make people donate/spend more than they're comfortable with on me ;A; )

EDIT: Y'ALL ARE TOO KIND WHAT THE FUCK.

Y'all know the drill!

I'm doing some coms, since it's been a while. And honestly I love drawing latex. Vacbeds, latex webbing, almost any sort of latex bondage is fair game.

I will be taking these a little slower than usual, as I want to rework my work pacing on larger pieces to avoid burnout, so I will limit myself to finishing only 1 per day. Thank you for understanding.

Okay, this is going to be a big begging and update post because I'm really trying hard and I want to make this succeed. I know it has been a long, hellish year, and I have not really been putting out a lot of work, but please look ahead and see what goodies I'm going to give to everyone in this new overhaul.

First off, I want to apologize.

I have not produced a lot of content this past year. It was an incredibly taxing year for all of us, between my wrist hurting when I drew for long periods, and my new medication (sorely needed) dulling a lot of my horniness in favor of mental stability, I have not been a very good Content Creator. I'm going to try changing, and trying to get better. I want to be able to produce nice things, and to give you all things to enjoy, but it has been a year, please bear with me as I've been trying my best. I'm going to keep trying, because that's all I can do.

Now, I'm going to shill my Patreon, again.

Why? Because I'm changing it. I'm going to make it a very art and merch based place. I know there aren't lewds on there, because I want to keep it clean. I know that's why most people don't bother, because I'm not putting the content I put here on it, and that's okay. But going forwards, I'm going to update things. I'm going to give out stickers each month that Patreons pick the theme for, and a few times per year give out pins or charms, that again, Patreons can vote on, and then you get those before the rest of the public does. You will get first dibs on what I make, and what I produce.

I'm also only $19 away from my first goal, which is to open a personal Discord Server for Patreons, where you'd all be able to hang out and chat with me. I hope these sorts of things are what people want, because I want to be able to give people art, and merch. Maybe when I get my SECRET SOAP MOLDS in, Patreons will get first dibs on the cool secret thing I've been working on with help from a friend. You also can still get new prints (such as the Moon Presence print that has not yet been available online), old stickers, things like that.

That's it. That's the sales pitch.

Thank you for your time.

Hiiiiiiiiiiiii!

So! I need to find someone who is willing to make a plushie for me!

My fiance's new DnD character has a peahen as a wizard familiar (her name is Cheese, her wizard buddy is a goblin, he loves her it's great).

The problem is that every single place makes peacocks and not peahens.

SO if you know a plushiemaker, please please please let me know!

It's my birthday!

I'm 33 today and already pulled something in my leg because I'm good at this.

Yaaaay me!

I have realized I need some ref sheets. One of my fursona and one of Fleiya.

Anyone know a good artist for these? Or where to look if there's a group for it all.

thanks!

Anyone following my twitter knows I'm angry.

If you in any way support what happened on Capitol Hill, if you still think the election was rigged, if you think those insurgents were "just concerned citizens", if you think they were "true patriots", if you think they were "antifa in disguise", if you in ANY WAY support the act of insurgency and terrorism that took place on January 6th:

My content is not for you. Go fuck yourself, and leave.

I don't want you here.
I don't want your money.

I don't care about being part of the "tolerant left". I'm not tolerating this anymore. I'm not tolerating this world.

I'm not tolerating your intolerance.

Go fuck yourself.

EDIT - I don't know how many more of these I can do, I'm slowly hitting burnout. I will leave this open until midnight CST (so the moment it becomes Monday 12/28 my time), but I can't do much more. I can't thank you all enough for the support.

EDIT 2 - I'm so sorry everyone, but I am now closed. I have hit my limit. I'll finish what is in my DMs, but I've hit my burnout limit, and I just can't do more. Thank you so much to everyone who has donated, Stringbat is blown away by everything you have been able to do for her. Thank you, thank you so much. I can't say that enough. Thank you so much.

Hey everyone, I bring bad news.

So, a member of Meraki Weyr (my forum's sister site) came home the evening on the 20th to find her house on fire. No one was home, but they lost everything, including their pets.

Currently they have a Go Fund Me open for donations to try to get themselves back on their feet.

Link here: https://www.gofundme.com/f/sdhde9-house-fire

I can't make anyone donate, but I can help.

For every $10 you donate, I'll draw you one of my gag icons. I need to see a screenshot proving you donated and what the amount was. Please, please don't use this as an opportunity to get free art. I can't imagine how devastating this is, so I want to do whatever I can.

EDIT: I didn't realize GoFundMe only allows Google Pay or a credit card. If you can only pay via PayPal, DM me and we can work this out.

Usual rules
-No scat/watersports/diaper/babyfur/etc
-Character needs to be at least 18 and look the part (no 1000 year old lolis).

Thank you so much for your time.

Quit.

Do whatever it fucking takes to stop from smoking.

My Uncle Mike died last night, just before midnight. I found out this morning.

Uncle Mike was always a very kind man to me. He supported my transition, sent me just terrible corny Dad Jokes (or Wisconsin jokes), always commented on the art I put on FB, and was always good to us kids.

He smoked almost all the years I knew him, and quit when he started to deteriorate, but it was too late. That, combined with a previously unknown genetic disease (that my mom fortunately is not a carrier for), caused him to deteriorate in only a few years. His son also tested positive for the disease (I can't remember the name of it, Mom only said it once) and stopped smoking once he got his results back.

So please, from some asshole on the internet, please stop smoking. Don't smoke, don't vape, eat your weed or something, but please don't damage yourself like this.

TLDR i just wanna draw some full latex encasements and stuff. So, there's some Living Latex on the loose!

PRICE:
Image: $50 USD
Image with Story: $55 USD
Additional charge for: Extra limbs*, multiple characters

*One set of wings or 'taurs are fine.

Tips are appreciated but not required.

How to acquire
-Send note with the subject "living latex"
--Make sure note contains:
---Clear refs
---Your paypal address
---If you would like a story or not
---If you would like breathplay or not
-Pay
-Wait patiently, your slot will be confirmed once you have paid.

Your character will be completely encased in some nice, form-fitting living latex.

That's right friends!

It is time for Hostage Hotel to open for the year.

Management apologizes for the limited space, as the hotel is renovating much of the space for future years. As such, we are only open for 10 rooms this year. Perhaps, if there is interest, there will be a YCH at the end for some unlucky snoops deciding to try getting a sneak peak at the new attractions too early.

Room fee: $55 for a standard picture room, $60 for a picture and story room.
Additions: There is a separate charge of +50% total cost for excessive limbs, multiple characters, overly-complicated designs, etc

How to reserve a room[/b]
1 - send a note to management entitled "Hostage Hotel"
--Ensure your note has your references and your paypal email
--Ensure your note has specifics, if you have scenarios you would like, gags you prefer, etc
--Ensure your note has a room number you prefer, and a backup in case it is already taken
--Ensure your note specifies picture or story
2 - Pay the invoice that management sends you
3 - Wait
4 - Enjoy your stay

Rules
1 - Due to limited slots, Management is allowing only one reservation per room (one per person). Management will reconsider this if there is a lack of interest.
2 - Characters must be and appear to be 18 or over to reserve a room
3 - Scat, vore, watersports, diaper, guro, spit/vomit, ageplay, slurs, sexism/racism, and homophobia/transphobia are not permitted at the hotel

Journal will be updated as rooms are filled.

Thank you for your time.

Hello friends!

Thanks to a reminder from  ashari I will be doing HH this year!

The downside is that because of how stressful this year has been, there will be a very limited number of slots. The price will be the same! $55 for the image, $60 (total) for image + story.

The Hotel will open its doors on October 1st.

I hope you all enjoy it!

Hello everyone.

There's a good number of you following me, and if even a handful of you read this journal and actually act upon this, I'll have done my job.

What the fuck happened to my country? We've fallen so far into fascism that it's not an unkind comparison anymore. We have put immigrants in concentration camps, gassing and sterilizing them (which, hey, is a war crime and extremely genocidal), taken their children and LOST thousands of them. We have police responding to protests against police brutality with more brutality. Tear gas is being fired on protesters, they're being shot, arrested, beaten, assaulted, all for demanding that the police stop doing that. Not to mention federal agents kidnapping people off the street, and politicians declaring the very idea of anti-fascism as terrorism. The entire West Coast is on fire, and people are still sticking their heads in the sand and screaming that climate change doesn't exist. We have the GOP showing their hypocrisy and sexism, jerking themselves off about the Supreme Court, and the bastard in chief is a senile, dangerous, egotistical asshole who still wants to bang his daughter.

I don't care if you think I'm insane for being upset by this.

Guys, I'm a gay, transgender man with mental illness who is tired of being told that things will be alright.

This is not fine.

So today, and as soon as you can, I want you (if you're a US citizen) to register to vote, and make sure you're registered, and then vote. Not just in the big Presidential election, but in your local ones as well. Change starts at the local level, and the more often you vote, the more things change. We need to get this insane man out of the White House.

And yeah, I'm not a fan of Biden.

But we have literally no other choice. Don't vote 3rd party as a protest. This election is far too important. Your protest vote doesn't do anything. It is meaningless. Close your eyes and think of England or something, but we as a country cannot sustain another 4 years of this madman eroding our democracy.

And hey, I don't give a shit if you want to come in here and scream at me about how I'm wrong or how I'm a stupid liberal or some shit. My blocklist is ready.

But vote.

https://vote.gov/

Go here.

Make sure you've registered.

Adversor Et Admorsus. Resist and Bite.

Like the info says, my monitor is in need of replacing! It's 13 years old, if that gives you any indication of how long I've had it, and with the colors not always accurate, uh... yeah. Plus I'd like something slightly larger than a laptop screen.

But also I moved! And set up my new workshop! Shit! :D

So, commissions are going towards me being able to do future commissions! Your spot is confirmed once I've sent the invoice c:

BUT WAIT THERE'S MORE!

If you want physical items, I am now doing CUSTOM SOAP COMMISSIONS. You want something the color of your fursona? I got the hookup.

Hey!

Apparently Pittsburg's local paper posted an alternative to Anthrocon, the problem is that it's a local autistic center's disabled-people only zoom call/meetup.

PLEASE do NOT show up for that zoom call! That's not an alternative to Anthrocon!

Here's the tweet from my friend who alerted me. They have no ill will towards furries, but this isn't for us.

Spread this if you can, please!

Finally.

Want soap based on your fursona? Maybe something neat and personal?

Guess what: I'm doing custom soap orders now.

I've also restocked dragons and dice for the dragon egg and dice bath bombs, so that's neat.

Not sure when art commissions will open again, but right now: soap.

Or as several people I know call it: Forbidden Snack.

(please do not eat the soap)
