Commission delays, etc
Posted 9 years agoDidn't expect to get this far behind on my com list, but it seems I have. :x I fell into a bit of a depression after we had to put one of the family dogs to sleep the day after my birthday. (it was cancer) And actually watching the procedure with his head in my lap was a bit more traumatizing than I expected.
I'm still getting stuff done it's just been slow. I do plan to try and stream some progress soon too, so if you want to catch that you can sub on my Picarto https://picarto.tv/Satsukii
I probably won't advertise here for my streams as I still get a bit stage fright. :x But come join me if ya see the notification.
Just a reminder to any of my commissioners you can always poke me via note to see what's up/get progress.

health update
Posted 9 years agoThank you all so much for the comments on my last journal - I'm doing a ton better now. My stay at the hospital lasted about 5 days, and all the procedures they had to do were quite unpleasant. (IV antibiotics and fluids round the clock, as well as magnesium. Morpheme every 2 hours, a blood test at 4am every night, and a shot right in my gut every morning) But I am no longer in pain, thank gods. I have a new diet plan I need to follow to prevent any more attacks, so I hope this never happens again.
Anyone else out there that is suffering with diverticulosis/diverticulitis... I truly feel for you. <3
I should be able to start getting back to work in small increments! Thank you guys so much for being patient.

In the hospital
Posted 9 years agoI've been in the hospital since Thursday morning, I came in with severe stomach pains and they diagnosed me with diverticulitis. They plan to keep me until Tuesday:/ they have fluids and antibiotics round the clock thru an iv. It sucks. :((
Just a heads up in case any of you were trying to get ahold of me! I'll be back to working hopefully soon after I get better. If you need to contact me for any reason my email is desidraws at gmail. I'm on mobile when I can tolerate it! :)
Thanks for understanding! ❤️❤️

Update
Posted 10 years agoHey! I live, I promise. I've been battling a really bad depression/low point, which is quite unusual for me because I'm pretty good about keeping myself in high spirits. And I just don't know what to do/how to deal with it? haha.
So i'm hugely sorry for being a huge sack of shit, to all my clients (stuff is getting done still, promise! communication is just shitty on my end).

Posted 10 years agoI kinda wanted to try a poke-pinup folio, but I don't want to do ALL THE POKEMON. /that's a lot/

Ofc I'm going to do my favorites; Arcanine, Ninetails, uh.. Nidoking. but I'd like to know just generally, what'd people wanna see!
Also do you like versions; adult/non adult? opinions!

cintiq screen problems?
Posted 10 years agoturned my tablet on this morning and I noticed when I zoom out, I still see the picture sort of burned into the screen. it then fades away. only for it to happen again when I zoom in + out again.
tablet is a 2011 Cintiq 21ux. i don't leave the screen on unless I'm actually working - so I'm really unsure of what it could be. And I had no luck with my google searches. :'( (or maybe I just suck at google-fu)
I'm curious if anybody knows anybody who may have had this problem, or may know what's wrong with it? I turned it off after I saw what was going on and I don't really want to turn it back on, maybe unless to try and fix it.

Paypal help - /fixed!
Posted 11 years agoI just noticed through Paypals new website when I go to request money, I have no option to select it as Goods or Services. The latest batch of commissions I’ve had people pay for I have paypal asking me to print shipping labels for which I know is a HUGE NO-NO when you have nothing to ship for it.
I cannot figure out how I use to do this before they updated their site. And if I recall correctly I had the same issue when using their invoice system which is why I navigated away from that. (unless they changed it, in which case I didn't see an option for it there either so maybe I'm just very blind) x_x;
Also I'm not entirely sure about what to do with the shipping label thing--do I print them out in order to not get flagged? I'm just kind of at a loss and I don't want my account to get fucked over. :I If anyone else has had any experience with this I'd love insight.

Tablet still being a jerk
Posted 11 years agoStill fighting with my tablet, the pen is just randomly not wanting to recognize SAI. I'm doing a few different workarounds but they're a huge pain in the ass. I just can't figure out what caused it to happen in the first place.
Part of me wants to just reformat my drive and start over. I've uninstalled/reinstalled my tablet. Updated the drivers. Same with SAI. Done everything I could find on the Wacom forums and google searches. So I'm just at a huge loss and chalk it up to a computer whatthefuckup.
When I do my workaround it fixes my problem for a day or two, and then when I turn my tablet on the pen just doesn't work in SAI, but is just fine in everything else.
Sorry for being late on my owed commissions, as soon as my tablet is done being a huge cock I'll get them done. ;A;

commission spots open <specials in journal>
Posted 11 years agoSince my tablet is now cooperating I can move forward, finally. Unfortunately I'm late on a bill and I need to start getting money together for my trip to see
the beginning of next month! (fans self)
My usual commissions are open, just a couple spots but as usual by quote only - so please shoot me a note on those! And by usual I mean it doesn't have to be following the rules below.
---The specials (cheaper flatrate-commissions) I'll be opening this time are---
Thigh-up Pinups. Sexy pinups, what more to ask. [ $65 ] [ 2 SPOTS ]
-Give me a maturity rating (G to Adult)
-One character per picture
-These will be colored in a style similar to this!
Delicious roughs. Because I can't call them sketches. [ $35 Per character ]
-Give me a general idea of what you want, not exact
-Here is an example of one
You can comment here to claim a spot or note me, which ever is fine! I understand if people like to keep things private.
I require a REF/Picture of your character(s) and your paypal address (email) so I can send you the invoice! Any additional info feel free to jot it down!

Tablet pen not recognizing sai?
Posted 11 years agoIt's starting to get kind of frustrating - I'll turn my tablet on (Cintiq 21UX) and the pen will act like it's dead when SAI is open. But if I close sai it works just fine (in photoshop or just clicking around on the screen)
My extremely frustrating workaround has been to uninstall sai, restart my computer, install a trial period of sai, and then delete the trial period (not uninstall, just delete the folder) and replace it with a backup copy of my own. And this seems to have my pen recognize sai again - for a short period.
I would like to mention that when I did get my tablet a few years ago it really did not want to work with sai and I don't remember how, but I had to pretty much fight with it to get pressure to work. Unfortunately with SAi/my tablet being a jackass it's been really hard to get work done. So I was curious if anybody else had this problem, or if anybody may know what's going on?
Yes I've tried turning it off and on again. ;x;

Posted 11 years agoHey guys, been doin my best to draw, though, it's been hurting like heck. But I have some pretty good-ish news!
I had my follow up appointment yesterday and after some more poking and prodding my doctor decided surgery was the final step to take in fixing my hand/wrist. It's supposed to be a pretty simple procedure, I'll be in and out in one day and recovery is less than a few weeks. I'm waiting on the call to schedule my surgery so I should know how soon I'll be back to working by then! :'D
I'm pretty excited for this to be over and to get back into the groove of working. Not to mention making money again ;w; Also just as I logged on tonight I hit 11k watchers, holy shit you guys thank you all so much! Fucking wow!

still alive, i promise
Posted 11 years agoit's been awhile, so sorry, ugh x_x
i got my cast cut off last week, my doc did some physical tests on my wrists and some xrays too. he determined that some tendon did not heal right (the one on your inner wrist right under where your thumb bends) to where one of the bones broke, and i lost all range of motion in my thumb. quite painful too, but whatever lol
he stuck a needle directly into my joint to relieve some pain and also inject something, i forget exactly what. but it's been a week today and i'm able to move my thumb again (yay back to being a primate!) but not as much as i'd like without some unreal pain.
i did get the okay to pick my pen up and give drawing a go, which i did. and i'm going to hopefully be back into easy working next week. i go back for evaluation again in a few weeks to make sure they don't need to take further action, so hopefully i'll be okay from here! :'D
thanks so much for sticking with me through this bullshit, especially my wonderful commissioners who had ordered stuff right before i broke my wrist ;w; i definitely want to do something extra for y'all for being so amazing <3
