Does some good work, give 'em a looksee. S'the same guy who does hyper dragonball z, the mugen thing? iunno.
Apologies I haven't been very active, dealing with some.. really asinine drama right now. Hopefully Balthazar's work will tide everyone over.

Artist Goals and Price Dilemmas.
Posted 9 years agoSO I POSTED A THING IN MY SCRAPS THAT I'M STILL A LITTLE SHAKY ABOUT, but whatever. I felt like I should go over what I ultimately want to do just to help reassure myself I'm on the right path.
I've always wanted to just, do really cool stuff with animation work. And I'm still doing that -- I'm hoping to start working on a preview, or possible YCH thing, for what I wanna do. It'll just be goofy stick figures, but it'll get the point across and I'll see what you all think of it.
That being said, Let's talk about animating. Holy SHIT animation takes a lot of time. I've been working with a friend of mine to gauge how much time goes into animating, and keeping a notepad handy with all the recorded information (Like it takes me an hour and twenty minutes to do a 6 frame walk cycle for a normal sized/proportioned character. I did not know that.)
Long story short, the idea is to break it into an hourly rate, and stop myself from under-pricing ALL THE THINGS. And it's a lot more expensive than I thought it'd be. I need to finish this project before I think about taking an animation commission again, but the huge price is kind of an issue. I'm not sure if I should like, auction off a slot? Ask to be paid hourly in chunks (With records and timestamps n'stuff)? Just keep doing what I've been doing and lump it all into one huge payment? Iunno! S'why i'm asking you all. Which do you think would work better for something like this?

Posted 9 years agoThat is certainly an intelligent subject.
Just a quick status update in the fact that I am still here. I spend more time on Twitter than I do on FA, but I'm still trying to keep it updated/relevant.
https://twitter.com/Lurfleman
if anyone wanted a follow.
One thing I'm bad about is not posting Stream advertisements here. I need to get back into the habit of doing that. I haven't had many opportunities TO stream, but most of the time I'd just throw a small mention on twitter and deal with it.
Wish there was an easier way to update multiple sites like that.

Still alive!
Posted 10 years agoI've been dealing with some depression guff and haven't really been up for doing a lot of fetish content. But I wanted to say that I'm still here. Trying to put some time towards a project-thing, which I've been posting small updates on Twitter about.
The keyword here is small. I don't really believe they warrant a proper submission just yet. Once I have them fleshed out to that point, than I'll look into submitting the assets for it. If not the full project, if I ever finish it.
Until I'm emotionally stable enough to actually do work and requests for people, I'm not going to be using Patreon. the page will still be active, for when that happens, but I'm not actually charging anyone. We'll just have to see how I feel about it once everything gets nice and settled.

Regarding commissions and patreon.
Posted 10 years agoI can't.
I recall telling some people that I was thinking about doing commissions, since I'm in no condition to do monthly content for Patreon.. and I can't. Like I would not feel right taking peoples money when I -KNOW- I cannot deliver art in a timely manner right now.
Patreon has been changed to a per-post sort of charging system for when/if I DO end up doing... ANYTHING, but I don't see that happening anytime soon. My folks are helping me out with the big bills right now, and I'm going to be talking with them about trying to take steps to stop feeling so crummy.
I still have some stills I owe people too, so I'll try and chip away at that.

I have a plan! Kind of...
Posted 10 years agoOk, so. I'm... pretty much miserable lately. My everything hurts and I really don't see me keeping up with monthly updates.
Assuming things do not change by the end of this month (Before Patreon charges again), I will try changing Patreon. Aaaaagain. After speaking with some followers on the matter, I'ma try to change it from a monthly payment schedule to a "per upload" thing? If only to use it as an impromptu way to handle commissions.
Assuming this happens, I'll only be charging patreon followers when/if I feel up to doing art. I wont be charging for every individual upload, more of just.. a batch of uploads. It's difficult for me to put into words at this moment in time, but--
Basically I would post a message, saying "I'm collecting for Batch #X" or something along those lines, charge for that and get the information I need from whatever commissions or requests or rewards are up, than actually work on the things.
Once I have all of "the things" worked on, I'll do one big upload of them -- much like I've been doing with the stills requests -- with separate uploads for animation work, neither of which I will charge for.
Than I'll collect on the next batch and so on.
This way I'm not charging you guys per month for basically doing nothing and feeling miserable. ;x which I'm told is fine, we all have rough spots? But it doesn't stop me from feeling terrible about it.
I still owe some other people stills and the like. I haven't forgotten about you, Just trying to get around to working on it.
I wouldn't mind ya'lls thoughts on the matter, while I try and straighten things out.

Trying to fix inactivity.
Posted 10 years agoI'm terribly sorry for the lack of content as of late. My mother is determined to move out of her house by this month, and as such we've pretty much been running ourselves ragged. By the time I have.. well... any free time, I'm just too unmotivated to do anything but collapse in a heap.
On top of some other issues and drama, it's just not great. Grandparents continue to hound me, My sister is still a demanding cunt, and the 3DS I tried to send my roommate to help with his stress and depression in Job Corps was stolen out of it's package. Fun.
In addition, it's becoming readily apparent that the pipe dream of drifting off and doing my own thing is really really stupid. So whenever this whole thing blows over, I'll try to go back to actively doing requests, and possibly proper animation commissions.

Scheduling and Family conflicts.
Posted 10 years agoSo I've not been doing so hot with the whole being productive thing. I imagine a good chunk of that is my own fault, despite still living with my parents and helping them out.
So I'm working to try and set up a Schedule of "Work X amount of hours Monday - Friday", and I'm going to see how that works.
I'm trying out "Free Alarm Clock" for this, which should hopefully help me get my shit together for a change. I was planning to use it today, but apparently this was "Clean out the room your in so we can paint it and drive all of our trash halfway across the state to the next city" day and no one told me.
Really irritating when I have a bunch of days of being lethargic and blurgh, and then when I want to work this happens. Arararararara-- IRREGARDLESS, Hopefully this will work out.
Unfortunately I'm not all that familiar with Alarm/Scheduling programs, This Free Alarm Clock thing seems good for what i have in mind, but if anyone can suggest a better program for Windows to use with this stuff, by all means let me know.

A friend of mine did a thing!
It is a squish thing that you can make animations with on your Ipad/Iphone/I-whatever!
Give it a look see if you have one of those thingamabopperdoodles.

Depressing Realtalk Contd.
Posted 10 years agoSo we had that talk. Kind of. When i got to my sister's place she still seemed messed up, so I didn't bother talking there. When I got back to moms, she called us and we laid into her.
She still doesn't remember jack about yesterday. ;x at all. I flat out told her she's psychotic, almost killed us all and needs to stop. She's sticking with this story that it's a "bad reaction" to the new meds, and was an accident she didn't intend. Unfortunately it's the same spiel that we've heard time and time again from her, screaming that no one believes her or that we all hate her and don't love her anymore.
That's ultimately besides the point though. I'm going to write her an eviction notice. It'll be lenient, so she'll have time to figure out what the hell she's doing, but still. She actually came up with the idea, because she's under the impression that it'll help her get on disability faster. It wont, because she's not disabled and she's not willing to do what needs to be done to actually GET disability, so... ;x either way.

Depressing realtalk (Drug Woes)
Posted 10 years agoHOKAI, I didn't want to do this, but I feel like it might help strengthen my resolve somewhat to go over current events. Yesterday was bad. Like... ok. Let me take it from the top.
Those of you who have listened to me ramble inanely on stream have probably heard about my drug addict sister, in one way or another. Well we had another episode with her yesterday. I talked about it a little on Twitter, but I feel like I need to go into greater detail -- and remind myself what I need to do.
SO at the moment, My grandmother's car is in the shop, and I'm driving my mother around due to her health issues. So we pick up my Grandma to bring her to pick her car up, and then we pick up my sister because she needs to talk with someone about getting financial aid for an upcoming surgery to remove some faulty equipment from her back (shattered it jumping off a bridge -- a different story). My sister had only just recently gotten Muscle Relaxers and some Painkiller Patches of sorts to alleviate some of her supposed problems with the whole, broken back powdered feet thing rebuilt with bones from her thigh thing. All of which cost a grand total of at least 320$ which she had to borrow from friends, because our family has since stopped paying for this stuff.
The REAL reason she paid so much money to go to pain management and get them, was to sell them off in some stupid ploy to make more money? But that didn't happen. She's driving, because she's pushy and we're in a hurry so we're not up for arguing, and she seems fine at first. Than she starts swerving off the road, spacing out at the wheel, riding excessively close to the cars in front of us, it's a nightmare. We split up so that i can help Gram get her car and some affairs in order, while my sister takes mom to take care of a doctors visit, and I pray Mom lives through the trip.
Meet back up at Granny's place later. Mom's since taken the wheel away from my sister (thank god), and we go to drop her off at her place. Mom wants My sister to come with us to her house, because she is -SO- messed up at this point, we're concerned we might have to bring her to the emergency room. Sister protests, and I know if we do that, she'll steal all of my mom's prescriptions, and we'll have to take mom to the emergency room again. So I loan my Sister my phone -- because during her drug induced stupor, she lost the new phone we just bought for her -- which I'll pick up later today, so we can call and check on her. Mom also takes away the meds she just got (what's left of them at least), and we head back to the car to leave.
Whereupon we hear my sister slap the shit out of her dog hard enough for us to hear through the house, by the car in the driveway. So we take the Dog with us too. (Which is why I'm up so late typing this out). On the way back, it's revealed she's taken 60 (out of 90) of the muscle relaxers in the past 5 days, lathered herself with at least 4 of the painkiller patches (out of 10 - with each 1 patch supposedly lasting half a week) - , and obtained some other drugs from her boyfriend, whom we had assumed was mostly clean.
So I'm going back there today to pick up my phone ( and maybe drop off the Dog and Meds, though I'll try to talk mom into hanging onto those ), and have a little chat with her. It's my house she's living in -- I'm staying with Mom to help her out, but I'm still paying the bills on it. If I see her fucked up on -ANYTHING-, I'm kicking her onto the street and filing a restraining order. If -ANYONE- besides her or myself is in that house, I'm calling the police to remove them.
Thinking about it... I shouldn't even be that nice. Just, kick her out onto the street now. ;x I'll talk it over with mom tomorrow, but yeah.
Apologies for just kind of dumping this here. Going over it to post might help me stick with the decision. Hardest part about these sort of family drug problems -- you really want them to do well and get better, because they're family... But they'll just use and abuse everyone and everything they can in the long run ;x

LET'S HAVE A JOURNAL, IT'S BEEN A WHILE. (Patreon/Life)
Posted 10 years ago~ Patreon updates ~
Well time's up for me to change my reward tiers!... and there's no way I can do what I want. Not on the main patreon site anyway.
So I'm going to remove the 20$ Reward for a bit. I still intend to follow through with what I've been saying and do some animations for 20$+ followers, but there's just no way for me to really say that without it sounding like a raffle, or turning it into a commission, neither of which I am prepared to do.
SO FOR THE MOMENT, there wont be any official reward there. I'M STILL PLANNING TO DO STUFF, i just.. can't figure out what the hell I can put on the patreon site.
Still working on the stills for July. Got a few knocked out during the last stream, hoping to do some others offline. While this -is- the last day I will officially be setting time aside to do stills, some people joined the party late, and I'd feel bad pulling the rug out from under then. I'll be sending you guys a note or message on the 15'th to help explain how that'll work.
Thank ya'll again for the support. <3 I actually would not be living anywhere near as comfortably as I am now, if not for your help. And with all the family drama that's been going on... to say it's been a life saver is underselling it.
Speaking of which --
~ Family Update ~
Mom's condition has kind of stabilized. She still can't walk, and I've been living with her for the past few weeks to drive her around and help move furniture when I can, to help them move. Her husband got a job out of state, but he'll be back within 2 weeks, and then I'll be back at my place again. (woo)
My sister is still a batshit insane CuckooLucklander, but there's more and more evidence of my mother and grandparents being crazy with each passing day. Just.. no where near as maliciously so as my sister.
I'm juggling the idea of just, getting out of dodge to live comfortably? But I really don't think i could live with that, with my mom still unable to walk and my grandparents bordering on 90 and being senile.
iunno. BEST to just, wait and see how that plays out.

Posted 10 years agoStraems over! Went better than expected. I wont be able to stream for the next two days, but we'll see after that!
IS THERE ANYTHING ELSE I NEED TO UPLOAD?!
Posted 10 years agoI make it sound like I uploaded a lot. But I really didn't.
POINT IS THERE. BLARGH.
THE FIFTEENTH HAS COME AND GONE, SO FEEL FREE TO THROW PATREON REQUESTS AT ME FOR JULY -- BEAR IN MIND, however, that this will be the last month I will be ACTIVELY doing patreon requests.
Barring one or two exceptions because they came late to the party and I'm terrible about wanting to include everyone in these things.
This will be replaced by ANIMATIONS, one animation a month -- for patrons -- is my goal there. Ontop of my other personal works. The day will remain the same, since I LIKE THE NUMBER FIFTEEN FOR THIS
PATREON MILESTONE. WE HIT IT. and I BOUGHT A COMPUTER, apparently, so I have NO EXCUSE not to do something. I'm going to stick with my original idea -- WHAT sort of flash animation would you guys want to see? Something Fetish related, something Action related, something Goofy? Give me a General idea -- the keyword is general. Depending on which sort of idea gets the most backing, I'll try and come up with something to accommodate it -- and some of the comments and ideas related to it.
I'll still be working on my own dumb stuff on the side, but yeah, TELL ME WHAT YOU WANNA SEE, and I will see what I can do.

PATREON MILESTONE. WE HIT IT. and I BOUGHT A COMPUTER, apparently, so I have NO EXCUSE not to do something. I'm going to stick with my original idea -- WHAT sort of flash animation would you guys want to see? Something Fetish related, something Action related, something Goofy? Give me a General idea -- the keyword is general. Depending on which sort of idea gets the most backing, I'll try and come up with something to accommodate it -- and some of the comments and ideas related to it.
I'll still be working on my own dumb stuff on the side, but yeah, TELL ME WHAT YOU WANNA SEE, and I will see what I can do.
Eyeeaaargh!
Posted 10 years agoNew computer! New Caster program! Trying to stream!
--STREAM'S DONE--

EDIT: Gotta make sure with the requestees that it looks good to them, but yeah, so far so good! Just one more patreon thing to do.

Apologies are all I'm made of.
Posted 10 years agoI'm.. honestly really bummed out. Like the new computer is here, and it's awesome, but having to spend -so- much time with my mother helping them move and watching her in case she has a stroke or something, really puts a damper on my work.
I'm still hoping to finish the patreon stills for last month before the 15'th, and do the stills for this month -- which will be the last month I'll actively be taking stills requests as a part of the patreon thing, save for a few examples -- but yeah. This is.. a huge steaming pile of bummer.
If I end up helping them REBUILD the house they're planning on moving into, I might just deactivate patreon altogether. It's not fair having you guys support me if I can't actually do any art. ;x But that's at least a year or two down the line. (I hope.)
I'm really sorry for the delay, and I'll hopefully have something -- ANYTHING -- done that I can put up soon'ish. Hoping to stream tomorrow.

Well, roomates off to job corps.
Posted 10 years agoIt's... kind of just hitting me that he'll be gone for a good few years. Breaks notwithstanding.
He hugged me g'bye at the Airport. And I kind of didn't hug back. In my head, I like to imagine I put on a show of being emotionally strong, but I'd be lying if I said I didn't regret that, and that it doesn't upset me at the moment.
That's.. really all. I'm doing some physical labor today, and hopefully tomorrow I'll be able to get some work done. I wish I had more to show, but things have just been hectic. That's a really stupid excuse that doesn't hold any water, but it's all I got.

What the hell is sleep? and can you eat it?
Posted 10 years agoOK SO I HAVEN'T SLEPT. I wanted to do a big journal detailing what all is HAPPENING this month, since I wanted to change some things around, BUT NO SLEEP DIDN'T WANT TO HAPPEN.
I hate you too, sleepy part of brain.
I -WILL- be going over stuff soon, I just have to set aside the time to actually type it out. Maybe tomorrow after I've died and risen again.
Two bits of good news before I fight the good fight of "desperately trying to fall asleep at a decent time."
A: Roomate's going to Job corps. Everyone give 'em a round of applause. Those of you unfamiliar with it, Job Corps is basically a type of specialty skill-training.... -thing-, which he will be spending a few years at learning how to computer. My folks are helping him get set up for that, and he leaves on the 7'th to do that. He'll be back during winter/summer breaks until the program is over, meaning I will still have plenty of opportunities to delightfully antagonize him.
B: I cannot thank you guys enough. The Patreon thing went exceedingly well, and having hit a milestone, and getting a break from the power company (ontop of some other stuff), I'm hoping to trade in my toaster for an actual computer. Nothing huge or fancy, just something on sale/refurbished, but even that would be a huge quality of life improvement from what I have now. My current rig can barely handle Skype and Firefox at the same time (95% of my physical memory being used on that atm), so something I can actually .. like.. .-do- things in would be amazing.
Assuming it doesn't shatter into a million pieces mid transit, because it's nothing but porcelain filled with my tears.
I want to talk more about the milestone and what all I'm doing this month and AAAHHH but I'm not so good with the typey things when I'm about to collapse, so I'll try and do that after some sleep. Love ya'll, hope everythings going well for you.

A JOURNAL I SHOULD HAVE MADE A WHILE AGO
Posted 10 years agoOk it's like 5AM and I should have gotten some sleep earlier but EYEEEAAARRRGH MILESTONES
The fact the Patreon page is up to 300$ is amazing in and of itself. The fact it went even FURTHER and bumped us up to a milestone is.. well, I really don't have words for it. I can certainly say I wasn't expecting it, and I'm not entirely sure what I'll do for it, but the fact we've hit it at all is just.. legitimately mind blowing.
Patreon is still kind of a dream-come-true scenario for me. The fact I'm getting by at all, let alone this well, thanks to you guys is something I cannot say 'thank you' enough for. I wish I was more emotionally stable, so I could have more to show for it, but such is life I guess. All I can really do is try to work towards stuff and hope it eventually takes.
The Milestone in question is a little vauge. Once I'm more prepared for it I'll set aside another journal for how to throw things at me relating to it. Still, thank you all. It means a lot to know this sort of thing, with patreon, is.. something that can happen, let alone something that -is- happening. I hope you all have a wonderful week.
I'll see if I can't stream sometime soon, hopefully tomorrow -- though since I'm posting this at 6AM, it'll probably be later in the day.

I'M HOME, AAAHHH
Posted 10 years agoAnd I've discovered that Skeletor is my spirit animal.

On actual news, I'm home! Hooray! No idea for how long, but I'm hoping to stream either Saturday or Monday. I think we have plans on Sunday to do something with the grandparents? But who knows. I'd be up for doing something today, but we're a mite exhausted from moving furniture from one corner of the state to the other. (Ok not litterally, but it's still a long ass drive.)
I love ya'll! Have a happy fathers day, a good weekend, etc etc, if I happen to miss ya.
