This just keeps happening and I'm sorry. I really am. I've been trying my best to keep up with my page and post and interact with people, but there's always something going on. Only a few people here really know what's been going on, but I feel like I'm ready to give an explanation for my constant absence. I'm not sure if many people really even noticed, but I'm sure one or two people out there have.


At the end of October, right before Halloween, my grandfather was taken to the hospital via ambulance because he had a 105 temperature. Turns out, he went septic and to make a long fucking story short, he ended up losing his right leg. He had a artifical artery in that leg, and it clotted so badly due to the infection, that his leg pretty much lost most of it's blood flow and essentially died.


Doctors tried to salvage it, but there wasn't anything they could do, and they had no choice but to remove his leg. My grandma and I have been taking care of him while his wound heals, and they're going to put a shrinker over his stub and he's going to be able to get fitted for a prosthetic, within the next few months.


No one I've ever known has gone through something like this before, and he struggles every day and it's painful to watch. At this point in time, he's able to cook and get around in his wheelchair, but there's still a lot of things he wishes he could do. The sepsis itself was already scary enough, he was extremely close to dying, and he may have to adapt to a new life now, but we're extremely thankful he's still with us months later.


My depression was already at an all-time high, but this has made things worse. I feel horrible talking about how it's effected me because he's had it infinitely worse than I, but it's been the reason why I haven't really done much. I'm totally burnt out. I have no creativity left as of now. I've been going back to therapy and working through things and sometimes I get that split second of feeling of normality. I guess that's a good sign.


We'll see what the next few months bring. Hopefully things will be better than they are now.

Hello homies uwu just a reminder my commissions are open! I recently bought a new car, and I'm hoping to make some extra money to go towards it! I feel kinda strapped for inspiration, I've been making adoptables and stuff on my other account, but that's kinda it. I really wanna post more stuff here, and it'd be cool to feature other people's ideas.


Bring me you're OC's, or your favorite characters, I'll be happy to draw them ;u;


What I will draw:

-Any humanoids; Gems, demons, mermaid and mermen, furries, Sonic characters, even.

-OC's or canon characters from any series

-NSFW; for the most part anything, except for really specific fetishes. No scat, no inflation, no feeder stuff, etc. You have to show proof of age for NSFW art! A photo of any kind of government issued ID with your DOB will do. You can crop or black out any other information you don't want me seeing.

-Groups of as many characters as you want. There's no limit, but fees do apply!


Wait time:

3-7 days. I'll be sure to send progress sketches, just to make sure everything looks okay to you!


Queue:

Currently empty 👁️👄👁️


Prices and options:


Custom Character Sheets:

Each character sheet comes with a full body shot and a portrait of your character. It MUST be an OC or your own redesign of a canon character. These can range from you giving me a general idea of what you want the character to look like, or if you have a image of the character and want me to work off of that. I can also redesign old OC's

I do apologies for some of these options not having any examples. I don't post sketches or lineart on DA very often :c I can maybe try to dig up something I've posted on tumblr if anyone is curious. Just let me know!

10 whole ass years on this site. That's almost 100 :0 I now qualify for a veteran's discount. I doubt any of my original followers from like 2010-2011 are seeing this, but it's certainly been a ride, I've had a lot of fun, and I've been apart of an unholy amount of fanbases.


2010-2011 had Sonic and Transformers

2012-2015 had My Little Pony, Dr.Who and like 500 sub fandoms. This was the golden age, here on my page :v

2016-2020 has been Steven Universe, Transformers AGAIN, and a few other things here and there.


It's kinda sad I don't post anymore. I've been kinda burnt out the past year with drawing, but I'm getting back in the swing of things with my new tablet and all. I'm getting inspiration to draw, again!


It's been fun, here. This site has been an escape from the real world for many years, now. I've made so many friends and nothing has been cooler than getting to step out my own bubble to see what's going on in everyone else's world. You can tell a lot about a person based on what they draw and what their front page looks like, even.


So yeah. A decade has passed, and we've seen a lot. Here's to another, I guess :'D
