Public Discord server
General | Posted 8 years agoI've been asked about a public Discord server, so why not. This server is open to anyone who wants to join, whether they're a fan of my art or not.
There's no overall point, purpose, or theme to the server. There are a few channels that should be self explanatory, but here's a quick run down.
welcome: just for welcome messages. A bot will welcome you and display the rules.
chatter: main channel for discussions. Talk about whatever you want.
tatsumaki: a channel specifically for interacting with Tatsumaki (nicknamed Monokuma on my server)
art exchange/NSFW: share art. Please keep nudity, excessive violence, etc to the NSFW channel.
link spam: for posting links/URLs of cool stuff you found
shutterbug: post pictures of whatever. SFW only please.
stream/commissions: channels for me to announce streams and commission availability.
The commission channel can be posted in, but please do not have general conversations there. Any discussion should be strictly about my commissions, questions for me about them, etc.
If you'd like to be mentioned on Discord whenever I stream or open for commissions, let me know! I have the roles "stream" and "commissions". Ask for whichever one you want and I'll assign it to you. When I start streaming, I'll mention "@stream" and everyone with that role will be notified via Discord. Same for commissions.
If anyone knows how to allow users to assign self roles using Tatsumaki, please let me know. I can't figure it out. :B
Anywho, here's the link. Be nice.

Looking for Pokemon Blue original box
General | Posted 8 years agoI collect boxed Pokémon games. I need Blue the most right now. Anyone have one in good condition? Will trade for art.
Wtf happened to Ajna?
General | Posted 8 years agoSelf discovery and the crushing reality of unmanaged mental illness.
With the gentle urging of my favorite of my sons therapists, I sought out mental health treatment many months ago, after a long stint of being useless and not knowing why, which was preceded by an entire lifetime of being somewhat useless but managing to scrape by out of sheer willpower or necessity. 2017 just didn't work out that way for me though, so I finally got the courage to ask a mental health professional why.
Therapy hasn't been very helpful for me overall, but I finally have answers, which itself has been a tremendous help. I learned that my son is autistic a little while back. He was REALLY behind at 1 year old, so we started services, but that was too young to know for sure. Fast forward in time, and it got more and more obvious that he's on the spectrum. The apple didn't fall far from the autism tree, because earlier this year I found out that good ol' Momma Tee is autistic AF and this new found information, along with 3 additional diagnoses I received, makes my entire life make sense.
So there's that. I had a hard time coping with life in general, then I had to go and have a baby, and then my dad passed away in a very sad and painful manner, and then my son turned out to be extra freaking difficult to take care of and I just crashed. 2016 was hard and I couldn't do it anymore when 2017 came around.
So, I didn't. I didn't do anything, except the bare minimum for my son. For months. His main therapist, who I love and trust so much, grew concerned and gently suggested I look into my own health for once, and so I did. And now I know so much more about myself. Ever since, I've been on a journey to learn as much as I can about myself and how to make things work for me. This has come at the expense of my friendships and my connection to you guys, here. I can't apologize enough to those I owe art and money to, and those who've tried to keep in contact with me but have failed. I really suck in general, but especially this year. I'm sorry.
So, what now? Well, as I posted recently, my cat of 16 years just recently passed, in a very painful and sad manner as well, and I'm still recovering. I'm better now than when it first happened, but it's on my mind every day. With that, Christmas marks 2 years since my dad has passed. December is full of emotions for me, but I'm trying my hardest to get my life in order. Come January, I am sucking it up and getting it done. No more excuses.
Once I have cleared myself from everything I owe, I will NOT be returning to commissions in the foreseeable future. I simply cannot commit to any sort of time constraints right now, and I can't allow myself to keep stringing people along. It's unprofessional and not someone I want to be. I'm not saying I quit art forever (especially not personal art), but I am not promising that commissions will be available any time soon. I need to focus on myself, my family, and my goals in life for awhile longer.
So, I suppose the gist so far is that I have been broken for a very, very long time, and never knew why. I finally shut down completely and that lead to me finally knowing why I suck so much. Now I see the world so much more clearly, but it will take time to repair myself. Commissions do not fit into my vision of self healing. Art is my hobby and must remain as such for the time being.
I feel like this is unnecessarily long, so I'm going to wrap it up. Here are a few other things that have happened lately, for anyone interested:
1. I drew something (gasp) recently and it was actually pretty dang cute. I'll upload it. I have not drawn much at all in like... 8 months. So, I was surprised to see I can still do it.
2. I decorated the house for Christmas this year. I've never decorated for holidays in the past, save for maybe a tree or stockings or something very small. This year, I Christmas'd the heck out of the kitchen, dining and living rooms. It's a nice mood boost.
3. For a brief moment in time, I was financially well off, so I decided to treat myself. I bought an F2 Savannah kitten and he's the most darling little thing ever. I got him shortly before Dorito passed away, which did not dull the pain of losing her at all, but in the time since she's been gone, it's been nice to have a cat's love still. He's the perfect little kitty.
4. Another treat I bought for myself is a brand new tablet. It's really nice, but I was hoping it'd incentivize me to draw more often. It has not. BUT, I'm going to force myself to draw more often come January, and it'll certainly make that easier than the janky set up I had before.
5. I'm not as financially as well off as I originally thought, so no more fancy gifts for myself. Instead, I'm actually looking to cut down on my massive Pokemon collection, which is very time consuming. I kind of needed to prune it out anyway, so this is a good time to do so.
That's it. I'm done info dumping my personal life to mostly strangers. Enjoy. I'm going to go work on sorting things I owe to people now. Good night and happy holidays~
Oh, I forgot. A fellow artist has a cat that needs medical attention and could really use the help. Please consider contributing a few bucks toward her surgery! If not, a signal boost can help, too. Thanks!

ATTN: Those I owe money/art to
General | Posted 8 years agoI am financially able to pay back everyone that I owe. I promised by the end of October, but I was unable to meet that goal. I apologize. Between my son's therapy appointments, helping my husband meet his own end of month goals (which we missed there, as well), and running my cats back and forth to the vet, I just haven't had the chance to sit down and sort out what I owe to who. I have it all in a spreadsheet, but the most time consuming part is verifying the paypal email of everyone, so that I don't send the money to an abandoned account.
You can help me out by sending me a PM with your current paypal email address. I'll send funds to those who contact me, and once things have settled down for me, I'll individually contact the remaining people and get their funds sent out as well. That will absolutely be before the end of this month. Even if things down get any less hectic for me, which they should, I'll make the time.
Not sure if you are one of these people? Check here: http://www.furaffinity.net/journal/7869628/
I'm also extending this offer to those I owe art to. If you want a refund for your incomplete/in progress/unstarted commission, I'll refund 100% of the amount you paid, regardless of how much work I've accomplished thus far.
Thank you for your patience and understanding!

Absence
General | Posted 8 years agoFor those who haven't noticed, I have not been around much lately, not just FA but the internet in general. I have been focusing on my mental health and personal life. I didn't say anything at first because I didn't think it would last this long, but alas, here we are. I plan to have everyone I owe money to paid back by the beginning of October, and art ASAP. Once my plate is completely clear, I'll be taking an indefinite leave of absence. During this time, commissions will be closed completely.
I appreciate your understanding during this time. <3

Ways to support me! (Patreon and Picarto!)
General | Posted 9 years agoHi all! Just posting a quick journal to say that I have reopened my Patreon account. It still requires some polishing, but it's functional for the time being. I've simplified it a lot so it should go a lot more smoothly this time. It's basically a tip jar, but I've added a couple small incentives, as follows:
$2: Tip jar! For anyone who wants to throw a couple bucks my way for the heck of it.
$5: Access to high res files! I'll be posting multiple images a month that will all be higher res than FA gets.
$10: Access to my private Discord server, where you'll receive instant notifications of streams, advanced notice of free in-stream raffles, and advanced notification of commission slot openings, before they're made available to the public! A Patreon Bot will automatically invite you to the server, so please connect your Discord account to your Patreon account to get invited!
Nothing is changing with my FA gallery! I will continue to post as usual. Patreon is only intended to be an additional (small) source of income, mainly tips, with a small incentive of high res, which I normally don't post anyway! You will continue to see my art, as usual, for free, here on FA!
I've also allowed people to subscribe to my Picarto channel (Note, the squad is multi-streaming as of me posting this journal, lol). Subscriptions are $5, half of which goes to me, and half of which goes to Picarto. This does not come with any special perks, but it's a great alternative to the tip jar for those who want to also support Picarto! To subscribe, just fnid the "subscribe" button below my stream video and follow the prompts.
I'm now upgraded to a Premium account on Picarto, which gives me access to rolling raffles in stream. I plan on putting this to the test by doing a freebie stream every now and then in the near future.
Annnd, that's it. Thanks for reading! :>

Quick sketch commissions - OPEN
General | Posted 9 years agoI have not had enough money coming in because I have not had many chances to stream lately. I'm trying to change this, but in the mean time, I need a little bit of cash to cover upcoming bills.
These will be messy, uncolored, fullbody sketches for $15. They will not be done in stream. Sometimes I can only be at my computer for very short periods of time. I do not have any examples at the moment.
I will need a reference of the character, personality, and any keywords you want to inspire me with. Like "elegant", "flexible", "Team Rocket Grunt cosplay" etc
TLDR: I will selectively pick some characters to sketch for $15 each. Not everyone will get picked, but I'll do my best.
Long version:
These are not first come, first served. I'll read through the comments, pick the one that inspire me in the moment, draw the sketch, ask for payment, and finally, send the sketch to the buyer. If I skip over you, there's always a chance that I'll come back to you! Maybe I was just in the mood for something cute, or fluffy, or cool at the moment. Doing it this way allows me to put my best efforts into the sketch.
If you decide that you no longer want a sketch, please hide your comment asap. I will hide comments of commissions I've finished to keep the journal tidy. Not everyone who comments is guaranteed a sketch, but I will try to get to everyone eventually! However, if demands manages to outweigh my supply, then I will have to put an end to it eventually.

Post a ref
General | Posted 9 years agoEverything I draw right now looks like complete garbage and it's really stressing me out. I don't want to do crappy work for my commissions, so I end up resketching everything over and over and over and still it looks like garbage.
So, I want to try doodling some freebies. Maybe they'll look like trash and nothing comes of it, or maybe it'll get me back into the groove.
Post refs and ideas below. Feel free to be very vague or very descriptive of what you want drawn. Honestly, a little direction would probably help me out right now.
Have at it. It's not first come, first served. I'll be picking characters/ideas that interest me at this very moment.
EDIT: Thanks, but that's enough lol

General update
General | Posted 9 years agoAwhile back, I took loans from people on FA to help my mom buy land. I waaaay missed my promised due date to pay everyone back within 6 months, and I'm super duper sorry. There are lots of reasons, but I don't want to get into them all because I want to keep this brief. Cutting to the end of the story, I've been having dental debt (from some very necessary dental procedures I had done over a year ago) looming over my shoulder for a long time. $600 was going toward that debt alone every month, and that has been tough on me.
I recently broke down and decided to start selling things from my Pokemon and game collection, and wow, has that been helping. Once a bank transfer goes through next week, I'll have enough money to pay off the entire owed balance of my dental loan and finally put a stop to that $600/month payment. I'll also have enough to cover my school loan payments for this next month. So, finally, I'm financially set. From here on out, the money I am getting from commissions will be going to pay back the loans that were used to help my mom buy the land. As originally promised, I'm paying people back before doing art for the loans. I'll also try to find a way to make up for breaking my promise on the time frame for anyone who I've upset.
So yeah. If you see me taking more and more commissions, please know that they're all going toward paying you guys back! Just having that extra $600 a month alone is going to help so much, so I'll being making lots of progress soon. Thank you for your patience and understanding~
If you're interested in getting art from me, I'm considering doing in stream PWYW commissions again. Those are awesome because I don't have a queue, and you guys get your art instantly. If you like that, please let me know! If you want a different kind of commission, I'm all ears.

Where is Ajna?
General | Posted 9 years agoIt's a very boring and fairly simple answer. I had a commission that took an extra long amount of time, which pushed my other commissions aside, and made me want to take a few days break. I've also been incredibly depressed. Unrelated to the commission. I cycle through that every now and then. I'm almost done though, don't worry. And finally, my son requires a lot of attention. I've been trying to get him out of the house almost every single day lately to keep him busy and happy. It's very tiring. All that combined has lead to a stall in productivity here. I'm sorry! I miss you too. I miss streaming and making progress and such. :< I have one or two things that I'll be submitting very soon, so hang in there. <3
Potential art trade in the near future?
General | Posted 9 years agoAfter I finish a few commissions, I'd like to do an art trade. However, I'm looking for someone who can draw human males, preferably in an anime-like style. It's fanart. If you meet this criteria, please link some examples of your work below (strong preference for examples that show how you draw humans and males ;P)! You may also suggest other artists who fit the criteria who may do trades. It's okay if they're not currently accepting, I can ask them later, if I ever work up the courage lol.
I'm thinking refined colored sketch, or lines and flat color. Something simple but neat and colored.

No limit on sketches per person.

Shipment will be in a large rigid envelope to minimize any chance of damage during mailing. It's not going to be folded in a cheap white envelope. Tracking is included. Wont be shipped until I get home.
I'll also be scanning them with a scanner for a clear image, not sending you a phone camera picture like the examples. I just couldn't find my scanner cable.
It wont be first come, first served. I'll pick the ones that are easiest or the most interesting first. If I have more time, I'll keep doing sketches as long as there's demand, until I come home.
If you're interested, please leave a comment with the following. If you want more than one sketch, please leave separate comments per sketch.
Ref:

General | Posted 9 years agoHigh res art zip file for $5
General | Posted 9 years agoI've gathered a little over 100 files into one folder that is available for purchase. The file includes high res versions of art I've posted to FA (most of the high res stuff should be about 2500-3000 px on the largest size, a lot are also about 1500-1600 px on the largest size). Also included are some collabs, some sketches, wips, and scrapped images that have either never been seen, only been seen in my streams, or were deleted from FA shortly after posting for one reason or another.
With your purchase, you can also request up to 3 additional high res copies of drawings from my gallery here on FA. If I have a high res version available of the requested images, I'll send them along as well.
Here is exactly what you'll be getting, in addition to the 3 requests: https://www.dropbox.com/s/8tpdcu4zr.....50.38.png?dl=0
If you are interested, please send a note (titled "Art Pack" please) with the following information:
1. Email address to send the files to
2. LINKS to files from my gallery that you'd like included as extras. You can include up to 10 links, but please note, I'm only going to give you 3 of them. The 10 link limit is just in case there are no high res versions of some of the ones you requested. (PWYW commissions DO NOT have a high res version, sorry! They're drawn at the size they're posted at, usually)
3. Your Paypal email address, so I can verify that you've paid
I'll give you payment instructions once the note is received. You can also email me at SRStudiosArt[at]gmail.com as opposed to a note. Hopefully the $5 price tag is alright. I don't know what to price things like this at, but I figured if there are only 5 images you appreciate in the entire collection, $1 per image isn't so bad, and I'd think there would be at -least- 5 images you'd like. Hopefully. :')
NOTE: This pack is free to anyone who has ever pledged to me on Patreon. I sent a message on Patreon with more information, but if you did not receive it, just note me here and we'll talk!

POLL: High res art
General | Posted 9 years ago1. When you commission an artist, do you expect a high res version of the art, or is the FA size acceptable?
2. What pixel size do you consider to be the typical "high res" size?
3. What's the smallest size you'll accept as "high res" for my quality of art?
Thank you in advance :)

ISO: Modded 3DS with capture card.
General | Posted 9 years agoI'm looking for a decently priced 3DS with capture card, in good, working condition. The newer model the DS, the better. I don't think I want a KatsuKitty card, though. XL is a plus.
If you've got one for sale, please let me know how much, who modded it, general condition etc. You can PM me, comment here, or email me at SRStudiosArt@gmail.com. Email is preferred.
Depending on the price, I may need to do a payment plan or I can offer full or partial payment in commissions. We can discuss all that to find something that works for both of us.
While you're here, check out my adopt auction: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/19765477/

Update about the loans / my mom
General | Posted 9 years agoSorry for the lack of updates. Things have been changing a lot and when I thought about updating, something else would change again. Now it's settled and I feel comfortable updating. Basically, the deal didn't go through and the seller sold the land to someone else, but that's a good thing because my mom found an even better plot of land, bigger, with more features. And the seller is willing to do owner financing if she does a large down payment, which I think we may be able to manage. She didn't give me an exact number of what she has in the bank, but we'll see. She's booked a flight to check out the land/town on April 27th. If everything checks out, she's going to move forward with the purchase. I'm going to start working towards paying people back in May, so expect more PWYW streams to come. Thanks <3
Looking for Animal Crossing Coin Purses; Curly Rosie Peanut
General | Posted 9 years agoI've got another Japanese trinket topic for you guys because you're awesome and sometimes are able to come through for me! I've got an acquaintance on Facebook who lives in Italy and is a hardcore Animal Crossing collector. Sometimes she wants items from sellers that don't ship to Italy, so I'll be her middleman and send the items to her myself. She's been hunting for some coin purses for years with no luck, so I'm wondering if anyone here can help?
She's looking for these specific coin purses, of-

Peanut: https://flic.kr/p/3Bpx4g
Stitches: https://flic.kr/p/3BtTdC
We can buy them from you, or if you know of someone selling them, please do share the link! Thanks in advance. ^_^ She's a serious buyer and wont waste your time. If you have what she's looking for and it's in good condition, she's very, very likely to buy.

Commission opp: Aeris + your female character; Make offers!
General | Posted 9 years agoMy character Aeris: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/19188536/
Quality of drawing (as far as lines, shading etc): http://www.furaffinity.net/view/19527739/
I want to draw a picture of Aeris with a female character. I'd prefer to do something sweet and tender. It can be (very) friendly, it can be sexy, or it can be adult in nature. I don't care, as long as the interaction is loving and sweet in some way.
If you've got a lady and you're interested, please leave a comment with your ref (can offer multiple characters too), how much you'd like to pay for the drawing, and an idea of what they'd be doing. You can also leave the idea up to me.
I'll pick an idea or two later. :) Payment via Paypal and is done upfront. I wont show any WIPs, either.
