I'm back!
General | Posted 3 years agoI had no idea how badly I'd vanished from here - sorry for the dissapearance! My christmas job kept me incredibly busy and I was struggling to find any time to squeeze anything remotely life based around it due to whacky scheduling and crazy hours. But I've landed a new role, much more streamlined role, I'll start at the end of the month!
Until then I'm able to roll out artwork comfortably and catch up with any commissions I've left behind. So massive apologies for anyone who's still waiting out. I'll be reaching out to those who're waiting in the next week or so, but feel free to approach me first!
Gonna get around to uploading any missing artwork from here shortly too, so I appreciate all those who stuck around!

Current Commission queue - Update
General | Posted 3 years agoHeyya there! Just wanted to write a quick heads up, I've been pretty busy and entirely forgot to upload things on this side of things recently but getting around to that now.
I recently lost my original commission queue tracker recently after wiping my PC clean, so I've started building a trello and finding stuff manually and adding that in - once it's completed I'll go ahead and share it around for everyone for total transparency.
If you're awaiting a piece from me, please get in touch so I can add you! I'm doing my best to try and add those from notes but it's been pretty difficult to track!
Best place to do it is either on here, twitter or discord: ThighPirate#0938

Support
General | Posted 3 years agoHeyya so I'm going to keep this brief. I don't expect anything from this but knowing that some people have acknowledged it is enough for me.
I could go into a ton of detail but I'll keep it short for everyone's sake.
I came out as transgender almost a year and a half ago and I've had no medical progress on it since due to not having the finances.
I just set up a go fund me to try and eliviate that stress for myself. It took a LOT of internal battling to get this fund rolling and I appreciate anyone considering pledging towards it or sharing and such immensely. Thank you.

PC Problems, might be fixed.
General | Posted 4 years agoSo I've been struggling with my PC crashing, blue screening, just straight up freezing on and off for a while. In the past 2-3 weeks it was happening none stop and I lost a looot of work to this; so it knocked motivation and confidence for a little while.
I've recently done a fresh windows install and am currently getting all of my assets/programs/etc. back, so hopefully if this fixes things, we'll be back on track!
Worse case scenario I will definitely need to replace my PSU, it seems. Fingers crossed it won't be needed though!
Should be back to grinding out that commission work and hopefully near daily uploads once I'm fully set up again!

Hospital and Recovery
General | Posted 4 years agoHeyya! I'm so sorry I totally forgot to update a journal over here, been solidly focusing on recovery. (Mentioned on Twitter/Discord but just totally forgot I didn't put something up here! Sorry about that!)
Heavily injured my knee and ended up in Hospital on the Saturday, and then had an ambulance called out for me for an extended asthma attack and untreated chest infection on the Monday morning.
Pretty much just been resting for the week since. Hopefully my chest should be sorted by Monday, though the knee is going to take a couple weeks. Depending on how I feel I'm looking to get back into working on comms about Wednesday next week.
So sorry for the delay! I'm sick of my own body falling apart on me recently, feels like I'm constantly sick or injured.

COVID Update
General | Posted 4 years agoHeyya! Just wanted to say thanks to any and all who've reached out to me and sent fgood vibes n stuff! Wanted to say I'm (mostly) recovered from COVID now and I'm ready to get back to work!
I already more or less said this on twitter, but I'll re-post here for anyone who's not got me over there.
Doing some warmups this week - hopefully wrapping up a few pieces. VN work on the weekend resumes too.♥
Might give streaming art another go. It was really good for keeping me working/focused. <3

Got COVID
General | Posted 4 years agoAs the title says, uploads will be delayed a bit as I'm stuck dealing with Covid and I'm pretty rough lmao.
Will keep people posted!
Will keep people posted!
Update - May 3rd
General | Posted 4 years agoHeyya just wanted to say thank you for a couple things!
Firstly, I was able to attend the funeral thanks to everyone's help. That was beyond massive, and meant the world to me, thank you!
Productivity went on a halt pretty much most of the month, due to family death, funeral and then my birthday a little after. It's been a manic rollercoaster for sure.
I'm looking to start pushing out commission work starting tomorrow, I'll likely be starting off with smaller, simpler pieces as I've been out of practice for a little. Once I feel more comfortable and confident I'll be going back to working in Queue order. Doing some warm ups today, nothing major though. I'd hate to hand off paid pieces without any practice first, It'd feel like a really bad rushjob.
Other newsssssssssssssssss;
Should be moving on the 5th of June in to a much healthier environment, so I'm excited for that! May need to take on work for some of that, but won't be until the end of June, early July I'd imagine.
tl;dr - Life is back on track, though rough to get through still.
As always, if you ever need to get in contact with me - shooting me a massage on Discord is the easiest way! Coza#3671
(Especially considering the internet at my current place tends to occasionally block FA????????)

Moved!
General | Posted 5 years agoFirst of all, a big enormous thank you to everyone and anyone who supported in allowing me to move; it's a massive weight off my chest.
Second thank you to any recent followers I've gotten whilst on my content drought, as well as those who have stuck around during it. Legends.
Going to pushing through backlog of commissions for some time, I still work on Fueled by Insanity on the weekends. And I (SHOULD) be starting up University come Monday. So schedule may be a bit more limited than usual.
I don't intend to take on any additional work until December; so I have plenty of time to get to any pieces of art that I owe out.
If you're still awaiting a piece from me; either throw me a message on Discord if you can; I'm mostly active over there. (Coza#3671)

Mainly just because managing notes and stuff on Furaffinity tends to be a ballache. Not mandatory or anything, but would be super helpful o/
But yeah just posting a quick update to say I'm back from the small break I had. Could feel my quality slipping and burnout settling in fast. So I shifted some priorities around for a week, got on top of some other things. Everything should be back to full progress in the next coming days.
Money and Healthcare is still pretty rough but It's sort of the best it's been for a few months now.S o hopefully things will steadily improve. o/

2020!
General | Posted 6 years agoMerry Christmas and happy new year everyone!
Sorry uploads have been pretty absent. I've been taking a decent break getting ready for the influx of work I'm likely going to be pushing out over the next few months. So I really wanted to try and enjoy the holidays and whatnot.
Got some warmups to do then back on the grind!
Hope everyone's 2020 will be great. o/

Update - 4th December - Hospital Again, lol
General | Posted 6 years agoWas admitted into hospital over the weekend as I was hit like a truck with a random dose of flu, which piled on my asthma. Without any real medications at home, I had to go into hospital for a bit.
Lickily I'm out, have a ton of medication to help me get through now, and I'm on a fast recovery, but man it was kinda scary, lol.
Giving myself a couple extra days rest and I should be back on the grind.
Once again, apologies for not updating this sooner, in the meantime I'll periodically upload work I had forgotten to in the meantime.

October 14 - Well shit, lol
General | Posted 6 years agoI'm actually so fucked.
Tablet pen will not work, everything I've looked up and tried has failed to really get anything done.
Currently stuck with an issue where it refuses to draw, or will draw whilst hovered (up to about 2 inches away)
I really need a replacement, but commissions are my only source of income atm.
But I can'd do commissions, without a working pen. I really don't want to take on any more work with my current backlog. But I can't do the backlog without a pen
so yeah
kinda fucked
:/

August 22nd - Update
General | Posted 6 years agoWell, that didn't work out!
Both jobs sunk and fell through for one reason or another. So now I went from absolutely no time at all, to finally having some time to myself. So I can actually start pushing out pieces again. Christ it's been a rollercoaster.
Thanks for the patience one again people. I'm gonna do what I can to make sure everyone gets the art they're owed.
Currently in the worst financial state I've ever been in now though. Rent is literally unpayable. But oh well.

Update - 4th July
General | Posted 6 years agoYo! So, good news, for once.
Moved into the new place. I've been setting up and really gearing towards getting settled. Mostly everything is in place.
Thanks again to everyone that helped and supported in any way shape or form.
Currently working towards picking up a second job and building a routine.
Shouldn't be too long until I'll be rolling out the art, thick and fast. Looking to make a decent return on Saturday and properly get back into it by mid-next week. All depending on work.
Thanks again everyone!

Update - 17th June
General | Posted 6 years agoOnce again, I'm super bad at keeping FA updated.
Quick tl'dr will be that I've been in hospital last week (Got kept in longer than anticipated too.), and pretty sick prior to that for a couple weeks. So that's why content drastically slowed down.
But I got released late Sunday! On a slow recovery but at least I'm back home.
Gonna try to pick up the pace with these pieces as I'm really excited to work with everyone's stuff. Thanks for sticking by!
If you're still interested in a commission, I still absolutely need them, feel free to support any way you can. Passing this around would be super appreciative. Thank you!

31st May - Emergency Update
General | Posted 6 years agoRelated Submission: https://www.furaffinity.net/view/31737183/
All of the info is covered in the submission above, but to tl;dr it. I need to take on more work to cover bills. Lest I'm really fucked. Lol.
It's worth mentioning that all slots will begin progress in early July and not take any priority over currently existing pieces that need to be completed.
If you're unable to order,t hat's totally okay. It would mean the world to me to spread this information around.

22nd April - Birthday :D ( Also Update )
General | Posted 6 years agoThanks for all the best wishes for those that messaged on Discord/here/etc. o/ Means a lot.
Soquick refresher on the state of Commissions.
My backlog has been recently getting cleared out quite considerably. There's some lower-tier pieces that I've not got around to uploading but people have received. So more is getting done than my page suggests.
Thanks again for everyone who's left who's still patiently waiting. With my current momentum I'm hoping to be entirely cleared out by 15th of May. Then I'll be able to re-open slots

UPDATE - March 15th
General | Posted 6 years agoBig update. But I’ll keep it super short.
After my PC broke down multiple times and I shilled out everything I had left to fix it.
I’ve been removed from University, and now owe back £3,500.
So I am seeverely not in the best of ways right now. So progress is going to be a little slow over the next few days.
If you see me going out of my way to promote commissions. This is why.
Thanks for understanding.

Update - 7th March 2019
General | Posted 7 years agoCommissions are back underway and the PC is now fixed entirely.
I now however. Am /entirely/ out of pocket due to spending 90% of my remaining cash on fixing this little git up. ;_;
Pushing out pieces almost daily from here on out. Thanks everyone for their patience and support! Let's get this bread.

[UPDATE] - 14th Feb
General | Posted 7 years agoYo, been a while since I've posted a journal. I usually keep up to date over on twitter ( https://twitter.com/CozaArts ) but not as often as much here.
Been through a lot of sickness as of recent but getting back into the swing of things, commissions are coming out as fast as I can produce them without burning myself out now that I'm in a better spot.
It's worth mentioning that basically all of my commission pieces are larger scale ones now. If you haven't got yours yet, it is coming, I promise. Just got a lot to handle is all.
Thanks for the patience everyone!

UPDATE - 19th December 2018
General | Posted 7 years agoRight, I entirely forgot to post this here but I've been keeping my twitter up to date;
I'm going to be entirely avoiding commission work starting today (December 19th) up until the 11th of January. 2019
This is to put complete 100% focus on University work from today moving through to the 11th, as I've spent my entire time since coming back to uni. Focusing entirely on commissions, hospital shit and finding a job. This has entirely sacrificed my education, so I'm allocating myself 3 weeks (1 week per module) Pretty much to do 4 months worth of University work.
Please be understanding, and thank you in advance for this!
I'm sorry for any inconvenience for those who're still waiting but I absolutely have to focus on this.
