update to comm pricing (image post to follow)
Posted 9 months agoHey again, I'm updating my comm prices and expanding the scope a good bit in order to build up money, as the circumstances that were happening when I opened comms are still happening.
In addition to model edits and renders I will also open for:
From-scratch Custom rigged models such as the sneasel pirate I recently uploaded
Music (you've probably heard my audio hopefully)
Stories (like I used to do more frequently)
Maybe even drawn art if y'all like the scribbles I posted before
All Commissions are Name Your Price (within reason) instead of a fixed price point.
DM me for inquiries and we can quickly negotiate stuff. Thank you for looking at this/sharing it.

a quick update on multiple things
Posted a year agoGonna keep this brief.
1. I was affected by Hurricane Milton in that my power went out and will most likely be out for a day or two. Other than that I am fine.
2. When the power gets back on I'm gonna upload a few things that are split between original art and a last few zoroark trade arts I got that I was sitting on to let Alani 64 have its time to shine.
3. After that, I want to open up furry comms for specifically low-poly mario-64-style models like the ones I did for Alani 64, which would have appropriate mods attached to them. Prices will most likely start at 50 USD, hope there's some interest for them but if not, it is what it is.
4. I hit a major follower milestone last week! Im gonna celebrate it eventually but not now.
That's about it. Hope this update is informative.

An Update on Alani 64 (a good one)
Posted a year agoHey everyone, y'all might remember the romhack I showed off on Twitter at the start of this year, starring a character co-owned by TOBCS and Incidental getting into expansive scenarios. I went radio silent on what that was shortly afterwards, which brings us to now. Truth be told, the project was on hiatus for most of this year as I worked on important life stuff (namely graduating from college wow). But over the last month I went back to it and am currently almost done (i say semi-confidently) with the hack. I want to talk about what this entails right now to set expectations properly (not that you've been on the edge of your seat waiting for it lol)
- Alani 64 is a 7-star mario 64 romhack starring Alani the Yoshi. It's very short but shows off a furry weight-gain / inflation belly mechanic I coded.
- It's got custom music alongside the custom model of alani.
- This romhack/mod runs off of Super Mario 64 PC Coop Deluxe. Despite this, Alani 64 is a single-player experience. It can not be used with more than 1 player, and does not work online in any capacity. Even if it could, I do not want a furry expansion mod anywhere near the game's public servers. If you don't understand why, then please don't play the mod.
- this hack is short and more proof-of-concept than anything else, but I do hope you enjoy it regardless.
I'm hoping to release it somewhere in the timeframe of next weekend (so either the 28th or 29th of September.) It won't be perfect, but it will be done. Enjoy the big yoshi romhack when it arrives!

zoroark month 24' preamble
Posted a year agoHey everyone, I've been working on new things to share! In the meantime, Zoroark month fast approaches and I'm meaning to clean up some previous art and upload it to celebrate be on the lookout for that in the coming weeks.
Also, if any of y'all have any zoroark-related expansion ideas / requests, feel free to comment them in this journal's comments. I can't promise I'll get to any of them, but id love to go into this next month with some inspiration.

Where to find me if the site implodes
Posted a year agoHey y'all, if you've heard about the recent passing of this site's owner, you may have also heard rumors that the site might really start to tank due to circumstances. Not gonna say I like being on here but this place is kinda still an integral furry hub considering the crumbling of tumblr, twitter and the like.
If this site goes out you can find me for updates at my twitter:
https://x.com/shellstockley
I wish I had better/more backups (and i'll probably edit this featured journal to include them depending on when they get made) but follow that for my stuff / updates on where i'll go since i'll probably not be long for twidder either at that point.

Some Updates + Ko-fi
Posted a year agoHello again. It's been a while since I've given an update on what I've been working on. I'm gonna make things brief since I'll probably give further update in some time.
First of all, Phwoomph development is on hiatus. It wasn't an easy decision but I wasn't getting anywhere with the multiplayer code I was writing, and thus I eventually had to step back and think if what I was coding was worth it. Ultimately nobody is going to play multiplayer outside of game nights I would host; it just didn't seem like a reasonable time commitment to something compared to a single-player game. Thus, the development is on hiatus until I can figure out where to go from there in a single-player fashion.
Secondly, while that's on hiatus I'm working on a smaller game in the meantime. It's with some of the same people who worked with me on Phwoomph, and I think you'll like where it goes. I'll give a more concrete update in due time.
Finally, I just want to say I've opened up a little ko-fi that I'll link to in my footer underneath my posts. I don't expect much money being thrown at me of course but I do kinda want to see if I could possibly do something in the future that involves people dropping a dollar or two to vote on the outcome of something. Something fun that might get me some money to cover the cost of buying a furry comm, perhaps? ...probably not, but eh, hopefully a digital tip jar doesn't come off as too opportunistic.
Thanks for supporting me by the way. While I drift from project to project I hope y'all enjoy my scribbles and writings all the same.

Where I've Been
Posted a year agoHey, I haven't uploaded much these past months, though that's just due to personal stuff. I have some mostly ready art pieces that i'll upload soon, but not much in the way writing (things are complex). The game is still happening obviously, though getting online multiplayer to work with it is going exactly as slow as you'd expect. Will update y'all with more funny fox content sure enough.
Zoroark Month 2023 - Taking Requests
Posted 2 years agoYep, despite everything I'm doing I'm still gonna pump out at least a story or two for the month that focuses on my favorite fox. Can't promise anything, but if any of you have some fun ideas involving a Zoroark getting big (perhaps one of my Zoro OCS or even yours) then comment with them. I might do one or two of them sometime during September.
Btw I have a good amount of writing to upload now that the game demo is out and had its time in the spotlight. Hope you enjoy it all!

300 Watchers + a BIG announcement
Posted 2 years agoI'm made it to 300 followers on this site! Kinda crazy to think that I'm becoming prominent on here. I don't have much to give in return for this milestone unfortunately due to a combination of college finals and other commitments taking up time I might normally use for writing. I might do a special raffle in the near-future, but don't bet on it.
That isn't to say I don't have anything to show for you guys, though. Those who've been reading my journals probably know by now that I keep referring to things I'm working on and never formally announcing them. That's because the project in question was delayed heavily by long-term computer issues, but since that's fixed now I've continued work, and that's why I'm really happy to say that:
I'm creating a furry inflation FPS! That's right, my ambitious project is bearing fruit; I'm working with some other talented furries who are handling the artistic side of things while I program it all in UE5. It's coming along surprisingly well, and pretty soon I'll be setting proper visual teasers for what will be a public demo/proof-of-concept/whatever the professional way of calling a WIP is these days.
As for now, have a brief taste of the low-poly goodness that is to come:
https://media.discordapp.net/attach.....1700/image.png
This is gonna be a summer where you see me do things you wouldn't possibly expect from me, I just know it.

The hopefully final hurricane update
Posted 3 years agoWell, my internet's been reinstated at my house, which means that I can finally do computer stuff without problems. Obviously the area isn't back to normal by any means, but furry-wise I've finally able to get back and hit the ground running. I've actually written quite a bit while I was confined to the internetless realm. So in short:
1. I'm planning on releasing two bonus Zoroark Month stories sometime this week (I wanted to write them at the end of September, but you know). Both of them were requests from the request journal I made, hopefully that makes for a decent haul in total.
2. I also have some original stories that I'm editing and trying to get up soon. You might see quite a bit from me in the next week or two as a result.
3. That surprise I keep mentioning in these journals has also been obviously delayed. Not too much left to say on that besides it'll be a fun time when I'm done with it.
If things work out I'll probably start uploading my work by tomorrow. Hope you enjoy it!

Hurricane Ian Update
Posted 3 years agoHey everyone, just wanted y’all to know that as one of many affected by the recent hurricane, I will be without power for at least a few more days, which obviously puts my writing on hold for the time being. I do plan on writing at least one more belated Zoroark Month story (one that’s even going to be a request; I didn’t completely forget about those). Regardless, I still did admittedly publish less stuff than I wanted during this month, but that’s because I’ve been working on a very special surprise that I know you’ll enjoy…
Regardless, I’ll see y’all in a couple of days (hopefully).

The 200 Watchers Update + a Surprise
Posted 3 years agoI’ve hit 200 watchers on this site! Thank you to all who enjoy my content enough to follow me; it feels wonderful to hit a milestone like this and hopefully I can keep making enjoyable fatfur/inflation content for the foreseeable future. This current project of mine (Zoroark Month) has been a blast to write about, and while I haven’t written as much as I like I still think I’m putting out quite a bit of output compared to the rest of the year for me. But what’s pulling me away from writing this time? Well, you see…
I have another project in the works, something completely different from what I normally do. It’s a collaboration that I think you’ll be impressed by when it gets to the point that I can preview it. Keep an eye out for it by the end of the month, and you’ll prepare to be amazed. Consider it a coincidental 200 watcher celebration post.
Anyway, thanks again for all the support. Let’s see how I can evolve myself in the coming months.

Zoroark Month - Taking Requests
Posted 3 years agoHello everyone. To start, I just want to say thank you to anyone who donated to my friend in their time of need. While we are far from out of the woods yet on that front I will say we are in a better position than we were when I had to make the urgent post. Hopefully this isn't too much of a shift from the last journal I've made.
So, way back in 2011, The Pokemon Company designated September as Zoroark Month. While they have yet to celebrate it past that marketing stunt, I sure as hell still celebrate my favorite furry every September since.
Which brings me to this post. I'm gonna be writing as much Zoroark stuffing/inflation content as I can for the month of September, and I wanna hear your ideas as to how to properly puff up the illusion fox. Give me your Zoroark requests, no matter the gender, setting, even your zoro ocs. Any ideas are welcome, and if you're lucky I might take that inspiration and turn it into a story that'll I try and have out by the end of September.
Keep in mind that I can't guarantee if I'll actually get around to doing any of the requests. With college starting back up I might find myself up against a wall work-wise sooner than I'd like. Regardless, I'll have at least one Zoroark-related story up during September, and I'll be working to make sure that number's way higher when everything's said and done.
Have fun, and start sending those requests!

Another Urgent Need for Help
Posted 3 years agoHello everyone. My friend's previous gofundme reached its goal which is great, but that doesn't mean their financial troubles are over, unfortunately. They're currently facing some unforeseen medical problems which is going to cost quite a bit to fix. So of course we're making another gofundme for them to help with the bills.

150 Watchers Celebration Post + What I'm Working On
Posted 3 years agoAs of a few days ago I've hit 150 followers on here (Along with about 850 total favorites, to boot). It makes me all happy inside to know that so many people are interested in what I put out. Honestly, there's not much to say that I didn't already say in my 100 and 50 watchers posts. I'm a gushy guy, but I don't really need to retread my past thank-you notes. Just know that I see the responses, and they encourage me to do more stuff in return.
Speaking of more stuff in return, I decided to also make this post work as a sort of list of things I'm working on. I can't promise that any of this stuff will see the light of day, but consider this a list of things i'm getting around to in the near-future.
DajiQuest - Imagine, if you will, the transcript of a play-by-post game I recently ran/am running. That's what will be uploaded, starring the titular Daji (remember that one story i wrote about her last year?) and both an OC of mine and the OC of a friend. Will contain a lot of improvised inflation shenanigans as I attempt to write around the player's decisions.
Untitled Star Fox Expansion Story - Fay and Miyu explore a deserted space freighter. What they find will shock you (or not really, given the title of this). This is a special collaboration with SockPuppetOfSins, and dear god it'll probably be the longest thing either of us have ever uploaded.
Fox Confidential - This one I'm keeping a secret. Just know that it stars Zoroark, and it's rather vanilla in terms of naughty content.
Blueberry detective story? - Ok, this one is still just ideas i'm throwing around, rather than anything i've actually written out to any extent. But it's a decent idea! Gist of it is that I parody old Poirot short stories with a lead detective that just so happens to be a big ol' permaberry. Hilarity ensures.
My Birthday - This has nothing to do with my stories, but my b-day is tomorrow the 21st. That's right- this post has secretly led up to me farming birthday congratulations the whole time!
I got a lot planned for the future, and I hope you guys enjoy what I put out. Here's to the next 50 followers; maybe I might do something special for 200. :3

Poll Results!
Posted 4 years agoWell, the poll's concluded finally. I got about a dozen votes in, which is a nice tidy amount I feel. Thanks to everyone who voted, but with that out of the way it's time to talk about who won...
...a thing that's hard to talk about since the vote ended in a tie! Hisuian Zoroark (Puffkiss) and the Multiple (Helium, Popping) options both got the same amount of votes, with 4 for each. Given that I both really like these ideas (And also that I don't really want to set up another poll), I'm just going to declare that both of these options are winners. That's right, my goal is to write stories for both of these plots this month. I can't say too much as to how the stories will go length-wise, but hopefully it satisfies those who voted. The first story that'll be coming out will be Zoroark's one, given that the option reached 4 votes before the other one.
As for the options that lost, don't fret too much about them. There's a decent chance I might return to them in the future. Until then, I hope y'all are excited for what I got in store for you.

100 Watchers + a Poll for you!
Posted 4 years agoWell, it was pretty much inevitable after my last post- I've hit 100 watchers on this account, which may be a relatively small milestone for this website, but still is nuts for me considering it's easily been less than two years since I started writing for fun. There's not much more to say that I haven't already said about the topic, other than that I'm grateful that everybody's been enjoying what I've been doing.
On that note, however, I've been trying to decide just how to celebrate hitting triple digits. After about a minute's deliberation, I think the idea was obvious: for my next piece, I'm letting you guys vote for what I write about (from a list of options, of course- it can't be absolutely anything). The following list is set up in terms of [Character - inflation/wg method - quick plot context]; hope you guys like the options I've laid out.
Vote here: https://strawpoll.com/zzbgz5he6
(Do note that this story might take awhile. With college ramping up the workload it's obviously going to make my productivity take a hit.)
Thanks again for watching me!
Edit: Oh, I forgot to mention. The voting will be closed by the end of the month. I'm sure that's more than enough time for everyone to vote.

A whole year of StockExchange
Posted 4 years agoSo it's been just a bit over one year since I first uploaded anything to this website. Obviously I'd been writing for a few months beforehand in RP stuff, but that upload (Record Breaking) was the first time I'd ever written a full on story. Fast forward to now and I've written a bunch of wg/inflation content, and now I'm nearly at 100 watchers. Whew, it's a lot to take in (especially factoring in the realization that quite a bit of time has now passed since the pandemic started).
But besides that, thank you all for the praise and viewership you've given me over the last year. Thanks for the well over 500 favorites total, and of course the nearly 100 people watching me. Can't wait to hit that milestone proper. Here's to another year of big furry bellies; hope you enjoy what I'll be working on in the future!
(Not sure what I'll do for the milestone when I hit it. I was thinking of doing a poll for what kind of fur I should phwoomp up for it, but if any of you have any suggestions I'd be keen on hearing them.)

(Not sure what I'll do for the milestone when I hit it. I was thinking of doing a poll for what kind of fur I should phwoomp up for it, but if any of you have any suggestions I'd be keen on hearing them.)
50 Watchers Celebration Post
Posted 4 years agoHey, I did it. I hit the first 'real' milestone one could say 'matters'. Not that the fancy internet points truly matter beyond inflating my ego (heh), but as I said in my last ego-stroking post it really feels like a sign of personal growth that I've managed to get to 50 watchers on this site. I don't have much to show in terms of upcoming writing beyond "I'm definitely doing something", but I do have some ideas of where to take things from here.
For instance, I might do a strawpoll in the near-future for a list of randomly generated pokemon for you guys to choose from. Then of course, the winning option would get a short warmup piece (maybe 1000 words max) about them getting big. Maybe y'all would get to choice the kind of inflation/wg as well, I dunno. This all depends on how finals season treats me as that'll absolutely put much more pressure on me.
Another thing I'm considering is formerly opening up for art trades. It'd be an experiment to see if I can handle working on multiple, shorter (1-2k words) trades at once, one that I can't guarantee would end perfectly well. Like, if you do act on that when it happens it might take a decent time to get my end done. Rest assured, they would very much get done. Maybe if things go well it'll lead to me opening up actual commissions one day. ...We'll see if that happens anytime soon.
Ultimately, big thanks to all who've given me a follow or a favorite (over 220 at this point, damn) these past few months. A year ago today I would've never thought myself being a, y'know, writer of any real sort beyond rp, and I'm really glad that I'm starting to feel like i'm actually getting semi-competent at my hobby, and creating stuff that I and others really enjoy.

I've had a Twitter, actually.

Follow if you want to see me reblog shit occasionally and be really horny about Zoroark. Who knows, maybe i'll even start posting belly-related thoughts at some point.

25 Watchers Celebration Post
Posted 4 years agoWell, I've hit a small milestone recently. I've managed to pass 25 watchers and 50 favorites around the same time!... which is what I would've said if I made this post in an actual timely fashion. That didn't happen, and so i'm actually getting closer to 30 watchers and 70 favorites at this point. It's a relatively small milestone, sure, but still one that brings a small bit of pride to me, knowing that people actually really enjoyed the several stories I've put out.
Really, if you told the me of a year prior that i'd be achieving even relative success at this he would've been downright confused. It was only like... what, 11 months ago that I started doing some rp with other people online to practice writing. Then after a fair deal of that I've managed to actually start putting out actually work, even doing art trades. It's a wonderful feeling, and I honestly hope that I can keep this spirit up even as a new semester of uni threatens to take my productive to the grave once again.
That doesn't mean I don't have anything planned currently, mind you. I've got a few story outlines floating around that i'm slowly working on making into workable stuff. More interestingly, I've got a far-more-complete experiment that i'll be posting to Scraps in due time. It's kind of a compilation of a CYOA sorta thing I ran on a imageboard inflation thread a few times over the last few weeks. I'm pretty sure it's the first NSFW thing i'm going to upload to this account, and I think the story makes the most out of that rating.
Hopefully I can actually work through any of my damn plans in the coming weeks. Ah well, at least i'm the one setting my own quotas. :P
