Snapchat Recap (and some extras)

I return from the prolonged absence bringing mostly cat photos! I've been a bit more intensely fixated on my cats since Molly had such a health scare this month with her severe uterine infection and then her reaction to the sutures causing massive inflammation. D: Poor girl has been through the ringer.

That, and moving, and losing my dang tablet pen(s!) in the move...also having a rough time sleeping because anxiety over the cat and over-sensitivity to environmental changes. As much as ...

Kalos Starters+Midna (Finished+Hi-res)

Same things, hi-res! :3

Kalos Starters + Midna (Finished)

Will post progress gifs later. Not in the headspace to talk much but thought I'd share the few things I managed to finish during pre-con manic blurs.

Collaboration

My amazing and talented art friend Emily got online to do some collaborative doodling with me to try to help pull me out of this artless stressfunk I've been stuck in. ;u; We were both pleasantly surprised with how it turned out especially considering the program is pretty simple. :o Also might be in love with the blue demon gal and want to revisit that design for some more pieces...

If you want to play around with the same program we used for this, you can find it here:  2019-08-01 18:19:00 +0000 UTC View Post

New Starter 'Mons - Complete+Gif!

It feels so weird to have started and finished a whole thing that I keep staring at these little guys with confused feeling eyeballs. o____o

Who's your favorite of the new 'mons?! Favorite starter and favorite of the others? (I'M FEELING WOOLOO SO HARD. >u<)

Also I just saw that a sequel to Breath of the Wild will be coming out. I watched the trailer for that an whuuuu I might be more excited about that than Sword and Shield tbh. It looks creepy and intriguing. :O (I'll ha...

New Starter Pokemon - Sketch

Trying to remember how to draw with something simple...except Sobble, bless their adorable little soul, has such wonky anatomy. So I wanted to run the pose options past you all. What do you think - A or B? Or are both too weird? (I'll probably make the head bigger and the everything else a bit smaller if we go with B, just didn't want to fiddle with it too much before deciding on the overall pose...)

Overdue Update

Massive apologies for the extended absence. I have been really struggling to find my way back to updating because I keep being afraid of where to start, because everything is so far behind and I owe too many people too many things. The move and burnout followed by running out of my prescriptions has taken a bigger toll than I would have thought possible on my mental health. I have doing my best to focus on positives and take things slowly, and interacting with people one-on-one or in person h...

Trying to stream..?

Never live streamed with youtube before so I'm not sure if I've got the right link and how this is all gonna work, but...here goes nothing I suppose??

Hello from the Void! Trying to get moving again...

WELLL okay, I don't know what the heck happened to February. I might have a touch of SAD or a combination of things, and I've just had to focus on my health and daily things. Lots of stuff, but I don't want to get into it right now because it is really hard for me to not get stuck in a negative feedback loop of feeling guilty/overwhelmed that tends to end in sleeping to escape it. ^U^'''

Finally realized I could pause the Patreon charges so I did that! I think it shouldn't charge anyone...

Mixed WIPs

Some slimes, some older experimental pieces and a messy venting piece. The venting one probably needs like a trigger warning or something, though maybe it's abstract enough to not be too bad? @-@ It's an attempt at rendering the maddening fucky sensations of chronic pain/anxiety that like to tangle me up tighter the more I want to get anything done.

Gonna try to figure out how to change the Patreon mode before this month ends so I don't charge you patient saints again until I actually m...

Itty Bittiest Update!

Not dead, but overwhelmed myself trying to finish organizing the workspace...trying to play Tetris IRL with so many supplies is a painful brainfull.

I'm excited to stream some experimenting with real materials when I get it workable! Paints, sewing, and some new resin molds I got! :3

New year, new Patreon format?

SO. I feel like a total shit burger about having let you all get charged monthly while I haven't been posting things. Getting a handle on how to recover from burn out - physical, mental, and creatively...it's been a fucking trip. So much challenging shit as well as unexpectedly amazing changes/opportunities, and moving to Madison - like, fuck, I could cry again right now thinking about how much more like home this place already feels. But brain chemistry is wonky about changing g...

Happy/Hectic Holidays?

I am still alive, though at present it's more of a half-life, since this cold is clogging up my circuits something fierce. I think I slept at least 18 out of the last 24 hours? Everything aches blah!

I really wanted to have a bunch of stuff posted by now, and be shipping out the thank you packages in time for christmas, but with how virulent this freaking bug is, I should probably wait to touch anything anyone else will be touching. >n<

As a side note - the Tumblr situation...appe...

Super Speedy Moving Madness

I am so sorry for the radio silence. The back to back cons were hard and the last one was especially so - something about driving through the elevation change tore me the fuckkkk up. Shoulder pain 7/10 almost constantly the whole time, along with a slew of other things I won't get into right now. Didn't help that the buying power there was pretty low so I started getting anxiety over that, on top of the impending move...baaarely broke even guh. @_@

When we got home, I was in too rough of shape...

Inktober/Gootober? - "Poisonous"

Long time no possst. Life has been all over the place. Had another surprise convention opportunity last weekend in addition to the two consecutive ones I had planned, and there's one more still around the corner...annnnd we're probably moving to another state in the next couple months. And my printer stopped working (mostly) so I had to get a replacement one.

I don't know realistically how much inktober I can do but it bums me out to write it off because it's my favorite, but I still need...

Snapchat (mini) Recap!

I have so many odds and ends of things I want to post and talk about but I'm in the thick of con prep chaos so I'll have to resist @-@ For now, quick recap of August (and some September) snapchats just so you all know I'm not dead. <3

(The un-zipped snaps are the Septermber ones. ...I'm leaving that typo because ermahgerd. XD)

Bee+Butterfly - Progress Gif+Variations

Attaching a few versions of these lil' bug friends to this post. 'w'

Butterfly+Bee Commission

Cutesy commission in progress! :D

In life news, I am so fed up with this diet eating up all my time and spoons! (Haha punintentional ;3) It's been a month and I feel the same, if not worse, and super down on myself because I've had so little willpower or energy to do anything else. >.> I'm about ready to throw in the towel. It's adding stress and anxiety having to think about how unreliable and conflicting health shit is every single time while I'm trying to cook or eat, in addition to f...

Space Fae - Progress!

Nude version attached to this 'cause I'm too sleepy to make a second post. v-v'' I really gotta shift my schedule back around again but guh it's like swimming upstream!

Update on the pre-orders: Pillowcases came in but I'm waiting on mousepads because of some technical difficulties with the printing service. Tut tut! e-e

Hopefully my shoulder will be okay enough when I wake up for me to get progress chunks on a few other commissions and store stuff...

Preorder Panic! Deadline July 14th!

GUH I've been trying to get this up and ready for days because the sale is ending so soon. @-@ I hope they do another one soon so I can reuse this.

I still plan on going through and listing each print and any variations so they can be selected from a drop down list (or radio buttons?) with less potential confusion, but there's a blank spot up there for now just so I can get this up a little sooner. It'll take a few hours to list everything. D:

Oh and "PATR30N2018" can be used for 30% of...

Pride Pandas+Pangolins - WIPs

Been wanting to get these started all month but I've been basically comatose with health stuff. v-v'' But here's the start finally!

Any votes for how to approach coloring these critters or preferences on the pangolin pose? For the colors, it'll vary a bit depending on the particular flag each time, since some have different numbers of colors...  

Oh and shout out any flag you'd like to see on these! There are so many. :O This will probably be an ongoing project, but I'd like to get ...

Bloodbone Minotaur - High Res

Both versions and the progress gif. Annnd I guess I'll attach each frame of the progress gif too for good measure, since I have 'em anyway. I save the individual frames of most everything I draw because I'm a bit of a hoarder/collecter sometimes. e-e If you all ever want a master post of all progress still frames, just let me know. It'll be massive, but I can find them pretty easily since I think I always remember to put "wip" in the title.

Wish I had been in the habit of putting "nude" in the...

Bloodbone Minotaur - Clothed

The clothed (and nip-less) version of the new monster mash up for my spooky anthology book. :3

Bloodbone Minotaur - Progress Gif+Both Versions

Since the monster anthology sold out at MTAC and needed to be reprinted anyway, and because I had a print that I managed to accidentally not include in the original layout anyway (the fanged slime one, which was my biggest seller at MTAC coincidentally '-'), I went ahead and drew one more to round out the collection. Since halloween is rife with gore and skeletons, and I didn't have quite enough of that in the original anthology line up...

Also realized that all the monster girl prompt li...

Survived Animazement (Barely)

I don't know if it was the 9 hour drive or if I rolled a lot of ones health wise, but holyyyy crap did this convention wipe me out. The heat, my feet, my muscles, my stomach, my throat...everything has been rough as fuck. Oh and I cut my finger pretty good with an xacto blade while trying to trim prints during set up on the first day. I didn't faint this time though, so that was a small victory! Heh.

Selling went well and people were super nice, though! I had to keep cough drops handy bec...

Rocketmon Stickers - Question?

Which Nidobuns do you prefer?

Misc WIPs

Trying to get a little bit of progress on commissions before the con in a couple weeks, and work on stickers, and wanna make the slime zine... o-o I'm a bit all over the place and anxious, and health stuff is being a headache as per usual... (Had a cold on top of my usual crud the last few days too. v-v'') On the fun side of health things, my parents let me borrow their inversion table so I get to pivot upside-down! Hehe. The cats find it really intriguing. ;p

Which chocobo pose do you al...

Rocketmon - WIPS

I keep wanting to have some decent stuff finished before posting but I've been a mess so. :x Here's this for nowwww. Working on the pokemon team rocket tends to use for the rainbow rocket zine thing...

Simplifying spiky Nidos is tricky. o.O

Eevee Edit!

Sorry it's not much of an update, but I figured I'd share since I put an embarassing amount of time into trying to figure out how to make a genderfluid color edit of Eevee here...without accidentally making another Sylveon. o.O

Also fixed up the original and shiny colors to make their style more consistent with the rest of my stickers. Had used a more blendy style originally because Eevee was one of the very first drawings I used as stickers. I'll attach the old and new versions just in c...

Droopy Demonsona - Hi-res (and Tumblr Password)

Finally updated the tumblr password. o-o
