I need new glasses! And my cat is old and not cleaning herself and needs a good shave (along with some dental work).

Maybe help me out with all that?

Commission info is on Tumblr! But you can note me here on dA after you peruse the Tumblr post.

So I am really terrible at replying to messages. Email, Twitter, Tumblr, dA, ALL OF IT. I'm pretty bad.

I've honestly let things get to the state that I almost want to just delete everything and start fresh. I am so overwhelmed with the amount of things I never responded to and I feel TERRIBLE about every single one.

I ask forgiveness for anything that winds up from me to people. I have things from 2011 and early 2012. THAT'S how bad my message centre is.

Apologies for those three polls everyone! The HS group I run is not a Super Group, so I cannot do polls through that. If you're a Homestuck fan, feel free to vote on them! The rules are linked from the polls themselves, so go ahead if interested. :)

Oh my goodness. Things have been crazy and will continue to be crazy for a little while I think.

So I've been quiet.

My fiance and I ended up moving to a bigger apartment, so internet was not available for a little bit. Things are relatively situated, so that is a big worry lifted.

Then there's my wedding. That is still a big block for a lot of things, so my activity online is somewhat being impacted by wedding planning. And Borderlands 2.

Okay, mostly Borderlands 2.

I had stuff left over from Emerald City Comicon, least of which was my artbook. Given that I got bit by the creator bug, I took the time to set this storefront up! Given the layout I think I might set up commissions through there as well, just to keep things organized.

I will try and make pony postcards available in the next couple weeks, along with some more print items.

For those of you that don't know, my body likes to react in weird ways to things. I when I say 'weird' I mean 'fucking inconvenient and sometimes painful.'

For the past couple years I've been dealing with what one can only assume to be a very bad case of eczema on my hands.

No activity from me as I am frantically finishing up work on a game I am a part of. And then next week I start work at an actual place with actual work hours. I AM SO THRILLED YOU HAVE NO IDEA.

More activity to come later. :)

As an aside... don't ever talk to me about fan fiction. I don't care. There is a VERY specific set of fan fiction I will read, and I BET that you don't have it. (Is it because I draw fan art?

Three small bits of news.

1) The game I was working on for the past two months has been put on hiatus. Hopefully I can make an announcement for it's resurgence later.

2) Have gotten the chance to be an artist for another game! Not sure what I can say freely about it yet, but you will see this sucker SOON. As in, "I'm going to be working my ass off SOON."

All right, we're going to try something new. If it flies, it flies, if it doesn't, whatever. Like I said in a previous journal, I'm going to hike up my commission prices. However, I really adore drawing for people and don't want to lose that! So, I'm going to see about setting up a monthly request journal (I saw :devseranatra: do this and I was intrigued).

It all boils down to anatomy. For the love of all that is good people, go to an art museum or open a history book. Learn to draw things PROPERLY first and THEN learn how to simplify it. Really, that's all that anime, cartoons, comics, etc, really are: a simplification of life.
