Letting y'all folks know that I will be continuing my artistic radio silence til Christmas. I have a big piece I'm preparing this year and a Secret Santa I've started but haven't finished yet, just like last year. Still regardless, happy holidays <3

Basically just wanna reiterate what I put in the description of the recent Thanksgiving pic in journal form: thank everyone who's ever touched me in some way in the many kink communities I'm a part of. Whether it's through their art, our interactions, or other closer experiences. You've all enabled me to accept parts of me that once left me feeling like a freak, abyssmal and awful. But now I've grown to accept these facets of myself, and found aspects of myself I would have never found otherwise. And of course, I would never have grown to make my characters, or begin the work on their story without you all. Here's to all of you. <3

I have a few friends who need some help. Dura's dealing with medical debt, while Smoky's dealing with a high veterinary bill. Please help them however you can!

Entering this raffle here, sharing it publicly for extra entries :)

In the event you didn't see the art post, I'm having a raffle for hitting 250 on Bluesky! You can enter either over there, or by commenting on the upload in my gallery.

Like most people, I made some art during the FA downage! However, I don't really want it to get lost in the mass upload everyone's doing right now, so I'm holding off on posting new stuff for a bit. Probably doing my uploads in the next few days.

Considering making a toyhouse... does anyone have any codes? :O

Redid my strawpage up a bit to be a bit more professional :)

Feel free to ask me anything you like...

I'm realizing it's like, 3 months late or whatever but hey my FA account is over a year old now. Not planning on doing anything to celebrate it, just thought that was nice.

Some of you may remember when I launched a survey a while back. This is a follow-up to that, but with a much smaller scope. This survey just investigates your interest in my characters and who's your favorite. Should be simple and clean, and it's completely anonymous :3

For anyone who wants to know, I'm working on updating a few of the ref sheets, some with minor details and others with greater overhauls. For instance, I just finished updating Emma's design to line up with the rework made by  Incidental. Just calling attention to it :)

I forgot to do this when I finished the bank robbery coloring, but I've submitted over 100 pieces to FA now! :D

sorry to have disappointed you :c

While I won't be starting any tomorrow, I will be opening commissions tomorrow! With an updated comm sheet and a few new offerings / price changes :)

Trying to keep this short but welcome to the Angelo Direct^TM

Writing this as a sort of announcement that I intend for my stuff to get more ambitious over time. In quantity and scope.
I want to use this post to pull back the curtain I've left up for a while with a lot more details on what I've been cooking up.
Part of that is that I have been engaging with proper worldbuilding, and a lot of thinking up connections and character interactions.
Part of it is gradually developing plans to write... a thing. I haven't decided quite what it will be, probably a novel of sorts, but I will most likely be releasing it episodically, in a few different forms.

The first part, and core of the "thing" is going to be the main story, in the form of chapters. It will focus on the life and times of one Elizabeth Tailer, starting in media res from her initial encounter with Vera Lyon during a stakeout gone wrong. It's going to be a story that features a few different focuses, including Elizabeth's work as an agent of the Bureau of Protection and Investigation (BPI), her struggle to come to terms with her latently developed kinks, and her life outside of work with Vera and the rest of the city of Mossgrove, the expansive capital of Seracaelain.

The second part is a set of side stories, focused on the various characters featured in the main work, referred to as paralogues. These side stories will be mostly self-contained, and focused on similar topics as the main story. These will usually be used to explore and develop the cast further beyond their appearances in the main story, or for kink experiences with (variable) canonicity to the main story. I will elaborate on their canonicity to the main story in the description of these on a case by case basis.

The third part is a separate set of side stories, but these are decidedly not canon and referred to as xenologues. These side stories will also be self-contained like the paralogues, but feature characters and events that either do not exist or would not happen in canon, but I find fun to play around with anyway. These will be either further explorations of my characters, but with the added bonus of writing characters belonging to others for them to interact with, or even further dives into kink scenarios outside of the scope of the main setting.

These together will comprise the entirety of the published work I will go on to make for the setting as I find the time to plan it out and follow through on doing so, aside of course for digital art. I intend to draw some art that is “canon” to the story, but most of my art output will be non-canon and continue to be subject to my whims and flights of fancy. As for when you can expect to see these, I intend to start writing properly next year; I do not know when I will have anything ready for release.

Now for all the fun lore bits! (That I happen to feel like dropping).
- Elizabeth’s home country is called Seracaelain. It is the main setting of the story. It is a democratic republic with a president.
- The capital city is Mossgrove. It is divided into many districts, based primarily on the geography and use of each area. In addition to typical city districts, such a downtown and residential area, there are also lake, forest, underground, and sky districts for Pokemon who find themselves more at home in these environments.
In the “present,” Vera works at the Lucky Star, a lesbian bar. The owner and bouncer saved her from a precarious situation shortly after she was employed, and the staff have become a second family of sorts to her. This will be the subject of a paralogue.
- Elizabeth and Vera live in an apartment complex, Park Heights. As previously mentioned, she has neighbors; Theresa is one of them, but there is also Marvin, a Dragonite IRS agent. Their landlady is Katherine, a Delcatty.
- Down the road from Elizabeth’s apartment complex, closer to the divide between the residential district and downtown, lie a pocket of small businesses. One of these is a bakery, which was one of the first places Elizabeth visited when she moved to her apartment. She is friends with both of the owners. There is also a coffee shop, known for its latte art.
- Elizabeth works for the Bureau of Protection and Investigation (BPI). This is a “retcon” of sorts for my early lore, where I used to refer to this organization by what it was based on, the FBI. I made the decision a while ago to separate my setting from being based on the real world, thus the organization name change. This also means Lillian and William’s current reference sheet is outdated; I will update it to include the proper text on their jackets when it is convenient.
- There are a lot more individuals I haven’t gotten to introduce yet that work in different sections of the BPI, including individuals that don’t take actively to the field, including the science team responsible for the research and advancements of the BPI. The science team will likely see at least one paralogue to themselves, if not several.
- Character relationships will evolve over the course of the work; there may be some emergent romances beyond Elizabeth and Vera.
- I have plans for several canonical integrations of characters that belong to other artists, as evidenced by the current integration of Lucille, Sylvie, Garnet, and Mila in their ref sheets and assorted arts. In fact, if you are familiar with IncidentalSnail’s work, a significant chunk of future characters may provide familiar echoes to you, though they will be substantially different from their incarnations there. For clarity, these characters exist in the main canon and will be used in the main story, and do not qualify a story section for xenologue status.
- There is a veritable rogue’s gallery of antagonists that will be featured, including the central antagonistic group that takes the form of a cult.

And that’s about everything I feel like sharing for now! Thanks for reading :)

thanks for being interested in my art :3

Felt like making a bit of a status update on my personal situation

I got a new job, I have my comprehensive exam for my graduate studies coming up, and a lot of other busy stuff coming up. I've got one more *big* piece in the pipeline that I'll release about ten days from now, but after that I'm going dark for a bit. Expect my art to start re-emerging past the 20th of November, if not during December. Additionally, December will (probably) be when I open comms again! I've had more people talk to me and show interest in that sort of thing, so I think I'll try my hand at two slots, especially since my comprehensive exam prep will be over. Latest I'll open them will be January, which is probably for the best since that's when my other job tends to slow down and leave me with more free time for that sort of thing with reduced hours.

Thanks for hanging around and enjoying my art :)

It my birthday! :3c

Birthday's on the 15th... first one I'll be on here for :D
