Now this journal is not going to be my standard journal. Whereas I normally point out something intriguing about the art or written world around us, scrap it. I'm doing exactly what the 'Krabby' side says, and certainly she is the most peeved.
For the last few months I have noticed an alarming spike in requests. Evidentally I have basically forgotten most of the ones I am suppose to do, and still really trying to forget the ones I can remember, because why? They suck. The requests I have finished are simply because they're about the only things that I have deemed 'challenging' and postable to my demo website. When you are layed off from work, and leave to another country for months, then come back with an aging demo reel, it is not a place any aspiring artist wants to be. It also means I had absolutely no time to finish anything that some people have been pressing me to finish, like say my comics or more importantly, Mewblade's last novel. That's right. Requests means things that should be done do not get done. It also results in one of my egos literally eating herself alive in a corner while the naive one (Vaporeon) and the deducing, logical one (Lugia) look on.
I've had requests lined up since about March from varying sources, and for spite, I am naming names, and some people are not going to like it.
First of all, Mewtwo's Ambassador. She had a birthday, actually, might have been even longer ago and I have offered her a request (a very rare thing on my part) of which she hasn't taken. I am starting to become so infuriated by the "I love you, I can't possibly ask you of something" nature that I think she is the only person I will actually shove an art piece down her throat out of the 'goodness of my heart'. So she is technically slot number one on my request list, also deemed the 'when I have time, or an idea I will do something for her immediately' person.
ThePiachu always gets something around his birthday, it's practically the rule. Late June and early July are slotted as time to do pictures for him, and if anyone has to ask why he gets any special attention goes along the lines of what one would do to make their beloved happy. Yes, I am a pathetic slave to love. (Got PS4 Pro and a giant tablet out of it. Total pay-off.)
Marc-The-One came in with his request, right on the heels of EternalDarknesss' mega, high res, poster size 'three girls in a handbasket' picture thing. This was also right around when I left my job and was planning to ditch the country. Great timing guys... I tried to do EternalDarknesss' finding his worthy of my effort since his I get to see the three pictures on giant posters and they look ultra cool. Too bad I also got sick and couldn't finish them. I did Marc's as a filler and posted it since his was also a worthy challenge. Finally, something that wasn't Pokemon and something I could do without a much needed PC.
Actually, ElementalHeroShadow2 asked me of something when I didn't have a PC, the most dreaded and heinous of all requests I have yet to receive... a 3D model (which I am currently stuck working on, and swearing at my UV Texture Map as I always do on models). As if I can model that without a computer and over 2000 dollars worth of software and equipment. Anyone who wants one, forget it. The only reason he gets one is because the hours he put into the stuff I have seen from him is about the same if I did a model. The most frustrating thing ever to do.
During the time I was away from my beloved Canada I get MewtwoStuckBack doing two requests, one for himself and one for MMM-AJ. Yes, I will do one for AJ. Love the guy, he commented nicely and he has a set of characters I haven't finished. Now as for M2SB's character... uh... do I really want to draw one of the only Mewtwos (outside of Nekogami's pink thing) that is more recognized in the mainstream furry porn than normal media? Hmm...
Speaking of porn, how about Anthan. He asked once, just once and I nearly killed him. I almost would draw something for him as long as it was so wrong and disgusting that no one would ever look at his characters the same again. How about it, a spite request? (Want to do the same to Mewtwo64, actually. I have a thing against fettish artists who do not know how to read my writing despite being a English speaking resident of an English speaking country. Ignorant twats.)
I've had a few other floating requests lying around and I can't actually remember who they're from. Those who asked, fess up please so I can figure out if it's even possible for me to consider drawing you anything before Christmas. Also give me a break down of what it is.
I normally do not do a lot of requests, and try to restrict them exclusively to certain people. For those who are insulted by how extremely volatile I am, let's go along the lines that at times I really, absolutely, despise people. Does not mean I hate everyone all the time. Generally I love people, and I love doing requests, but for anyone who has to do work for someone else and it taking longer than your own personal work, then you can understand the frustration. Part of this is also to highlight the fact I have simply forgotten some people already in the slew of long, and detail oriented requests. So please, those who have asked, please remind me once more. And actually give me an idea of what it is so I know what to prepare myself for. I'd like to have more of a game plan so I can clear this all out and get to the stuff you're all use to seeing.







This is the first time I've looked at your gallery. It's quite impressive and beautiful. Keep up the good work ^__^

Should I draw the Mewfii with armor or the one with the gold rings and bracelets?
I think you already answered this...DX

The gold rings and bracelets makes her look like she belongs in a harem.

2. the women in a Muslim household, including the mother, sisters, wives, concubines, daughters, entertainers, and servants.
3. Animal Behavior. a social group of females, as elephant seals, accompanied or followed by one fertile male who denies other males access to the group.
4. Facetious or Offensive. a group of women associated in any way with one man or household: Father joked that he had a harem of five daughters.
Or if you want a more blunt and modern translation... it's a guys' collection of girls, used only for his sexual favor. Sort of like polygamy.
