Alright, so I'm now working on getting all those posted WIPs finished and inked.

I did ask recently about suggestions for other pieces I could try, and one suggested I could branch out from woodlanders.

If I were to do something like more mythical creatures, what's the general concensus: feral (walking on all fours) or walking upright? Right now, I'm contemplating griffin (and if that idea is popular enough, I could also try one of my originals that's somewhat similar); more dragons (especially the really slender variety); and unicorn.

Or should I try both upright and feral?

Dang... never gotten over 30 favs in 24 hours, especially not to an incomplete sketch... and not only that, but in my personal search term for looking for all things pregfur, my post actually is not only one of the first things to pop up, it's the very first!

...I'm not sure how to feel about that, other than grateful for all the support I've gotten from everyone here, especially with my lack of posting activity.

I have other WIPs, but I think I'll post every other day or so with what I have; in the meantime, are there particular species you guys would like me to depict in impending Motherhood? I cannot guarantee speed (especially for ones I haven't done before), but I will try for consistency, if circumstances allow.

Thanks again for your support!

Gahh, my favorite season here on FA, taking me completely by surprise this year...

If only I wasn't working on one of my most massive projects, amid daily demands... but... maybe I can try to conjure something...

Apologies, I've seen all these wonderful and encouraging shouts, and have zero idea how to respond to them...

Thank you all for you kind words! I'm not dead, just in a spot where my art supplies are a tad inaccessible. Hopefully that should change around August.

So unfortunately I don't really have much to post for Mayternity this year. Got one piece that hasn't been posted yet, but that'll probably be it.

One day, I hope to try for doing commissions, but I have limits on what I am willing to do. My primary restriction is time, my second is my need for perfection (I'm all too aware of imperfections in my existing art); even in the event I do open up, I might not be open to drawing everything for others that I have drawn for myself. Pregnancy is always a subject I am good for, so long as it's not disrespectful. Labor, I'm really iffy unless I know the person. Things that some might feel are related to what I do, such as fat or vore, totally off the table. Any commission I might do for others has to be sfw.

Being that I have a hard time saying no, and am not confrontational by nature is another limitation. It's probably the primary reason I haven't opened up commissions, because I do hear horror stories from other artists, and don't know that I can tell someone that I'm not okay with something, even if I've already made it a rule. Plus, I have an extremely hard time asking for payment, because I don't know how to really guage the worth of my pieces.

What I may end up doing, if Furs are up for it, is for me to direct message specific individuals to let them know I'm open. Bear in mind, I don't intend to make such individuals feel obligated to get art from me, my intent is to let them know they are among those I feel comfortable enough doing artwork for. Primarily, for those who have commented, favorited, and shouted to me, and they tend to commission sfw pieces from others they commission.

Thoughts?

Things have been rather hectic.

It's a combination of having half done pieces that just need finished, and needing inspiration for new pieces, along with low energy of late...

Am contemplating taking existing pieces and making improved versions. Thoughts?

So, Google is no help, but I'm wondering, what are the functions of "shouts"?

Are they a good thing?

Within the last week, I have finally realized that furries are my people. Tracking down FA and starting the creation of my profile is among the first steps of me mingling with them. It is my hope that I may make a positive impact among those within my social circle. As yet, I have found no other social circle that I feel I belong in; even Star trek is full of far too many crazy people, and not the kind that I can have easy discussions with.
