My page doll is by @SootyChinchilla!
Update: I have selected who to go with for this round, but I am eyeing multiple of the comments here for later pieces when I save up some more >=]
Hello!! Idk if this will reach people but thought it was worth a shot.
I'm interested in buying an icon of my fursona instead of drawing it this year for pride month, and am keeping an eye open for anyone that does anthro art and would be open right now or within that time span. Trying to take care of it now so I'm not rushing anyone, but also so that I can have it for the whole month instead of part of it, ideally.
Here's the toyhouse page for the character!
You can also see them on Sheezy but their actual proper references are not on here.
You're more than welcome to post on the behalf of friends as well! If you have a link to your/whoever's commission information all in one spot that would be super duper helpful. My main caveat is I'd rather not commission people under 18 years old. (The piece will obviously be sfw though.)
The idea I want is not specific. I don't have a particular pose in mind or anything, just something that incorporates my fursona with one of their flags (probably agender, but if you have a way to also include asexual and/or more flags I'd be all ears!) The vibe of the piece should be joyful, but that's all I got. I'm even more interested if you have examples where the colors are included in a more creative way than just having it flatly in the background, but ultimately that would be fine too. And it has to be within a square canvas (and hopefully framed so that circle icons don't cut out anything highly important.)
Anyway, if you have examples of bunny/hare characters, I'm more likely to be looking closely 👀 But if not you're still free to comment.
If anyone responds and I don't pick you this go around please have no hard feelings as I can only buy one thing at the moment...I would pay all of you for art if I could. But also! I am always looking for people to potentially commission when I can afford to, so I may very well still add you to my bookmarks for a future piece :)
Just letting folks know in case anyone would be interested that I've opted to make a sketchy side page like many others have done, as sometimes I have a scribble I'd love to post but I do really prefer my main gallery to be colorful and more....finished looking, which stops me from uploading some things.
May not see a lot of use? I keep most of my sketches to myself, but at least when the desire is there I have a place for it.
I hear we're trying to make journal memes a thing again??? 👀
I used to fill those out allllll the time I am SO down with that. I got this one from here!!
1: Have you ever smoked, drank, or do anything bad behind your family?
Nah. I'm pretty uhhh....what's the word....I've never been interested in that sort of thing. Probably for the best for me tbh
2: What's a dream vacation to you?
Cabin by a lake!! And it's fall!!
3: Ever broken a bone?
Nope! I grew up being the most timid little creature. I was afraid of getting scrapes, let alone breaking anything. And as an adult the opportunity doesn't present itself as much for me, haha. Never say never though.
4: If you were to bake or cook anything in the world without it being a hassle, what would it be?
Ohhhh goshhh like as just a one off thing or a power I will have anytime I want that item? Part of me wants to say pumpkin roll, but only if it's a forever power. And even then I feel I should be more practical and pick a dinner dish of some kind. Maybe chicken casserole or a nice breaded pasta or something?? I'd have to look up a recipe for something really fancy and delicious because my favorite meals are all just mild inconveniences. I don't like cooking in general ;_;
5: What was your first word as a baby?
Probably mom? I think
6: Ever lost something you loved?
Oh yea. Plany of times. If we're limiting it to objects, in recent memories I lost an enamel pin off my bag at an airport :( There's been other things...probably bigger things....but I forget particulars. A scarf I lost in school that nobody ever returned to the lost and found. One of my favorite DS games...etc.
7: Did you ever get sick from covid?
Not to my knowledge. I have not had any illness that seemed remotely like covid yet, but I fear it's only a matter of time even with my precautions. I'll keep trying not to though.
8: And lastly, be honest on this one, did you expect sheezy to come out of it's grave? Or just assumed it to be long gone?
I don't remember the dev ever saying he planned to bring it back when he shelved it, which is understandable because it's scary and hard to get people's hopes up, and then they'll probably bother you about it all the time until it happens which can be aggravating when you need time away to think and plan. So no. I fully expected I would never be writing here again. When the site died I ran straight to buzzly like most others, and when that mostly died I ran back to twitter yet again like many others. And then when that site got worse I opted to only use tumblr as my main again 😭 I never left tumblr but I was split between it and twitter as there truly felt like no other options!
I have a bsky now too but I'm eh about it because it's literally twitter 2. I check it some but it was never going to be home. None of those sites were. All this to say that this year has started off in one of the best possible ways it could have!!!!!! I'm SO excited to be back and I hope we can keep this place around for a while this time =)
SHEEZY I MISSED YOUUUUUU
I am soooo happy to be back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'll be working on uploading works from where I left off til I get caught up! I'll be happy to meet more of you and I genuinely think this site will increase my art motivation. I'll be working hard to redo my page as well, I still like the color scheme but I really want to make a better header and maybe a new tiling bg.
I no longer use Buzzly or Twitter or Deviantart........so my options for sites have uh. Decreased since Sheezy going offline :') Whatever happens this time though I am so happy to be back and I am going to make the most of it!! See you around :3
I forgot to mention (and also put it on my profile page) but I specifically signed up for buzzly.art because I never stop having hope that I can escape using twitter as my main place I guess
here is my page
There's nothing there right now since customization is a whole ordeal to go through, and I don't feel like dropping all my pieces there until my page looks nice, but I will start soon and try to use the site since it's the next best thing I've seen
I want to make it clear that I don't think poorly of it so far or anything. I'm loving the filter systems and categories, and it shows good promise. I would've signed up for it a bit ago, but I had already gotten on here and didn't feel like balancing 2 new things at once. Figured I'd check it out later if I felt up to it, but probably wouldn't need it anytime soon. Oops
Anyway, it seems decent aside from making me learn how to do basic customization writing myself, and being in beta so a lot of features aren't in yet. If you're also taking the gamble, I'll probably follow back (unless you only/mostly do explicit content, or specific fandom stuff that I just am not interested in myself. Doesn't seem fair to anyone to follow people whose art I just won't end up interacting with)
I hope this one lasts a while at least. and I hope it doesn't sound like I'm throwing shade at sheezy, because I respect the decisions and understand how impossible being a solo dev would be. just very sad to see it go and worried about what it means for any sites like it in the future. won't stop me from signing up and putting my time into them though, because dammit the internet just wont feel like home until we can find somewhere like that again
