My friend Piter commissioned some in-depth character design and refsheet work and I was happy to oblige.

It took a tad longer than I'd have probably liked but here he is, both little and large(ish)!

Honestly I love working on Procyon and their ilk; I do kinda cheat by lumping in Red Pandas along with them, but they are technically closer related to them than Giant Pandas! A zookeeper said as much to me.

A while back, I made this little gift for my good friend Piter; inspired by a conversation in a group chat we share.

I like Gravity Falls, so the combination of factors made this a fun idea to work on.

And guess what - this is a brand new YCH slot too! In an effort to revive the YCH commissioning system I set up years ago, I've now added the option for public slots that everybody can order! Some will still be reserved to patrons, especially when on discount or discontinued, but this way, everybody gets to have a turn.

Go grab it now!

Here's a boatload of art inspired or brought on by my interactions with folks over on Twitter!

First up, some giftart: Starting with Bubbles who surprised me with this super sassy looking shortstack version of me! I genuinely think I look like a primary school teacher of some kind, which I really love. I decided to draw them looking as excited as they seemed to be while giving out all that fun art to folks.

Later on, I made another thing for Cody Omega as a reward for reaching an important milestone.

Next came the memes.

During the massive FurAffinity content policy update fiasco, my friend Seecret was putting in a lot of time and effort into figuring out just how deep the rabbithole of awful decision-making really went. So I decided to honor his service informing us of the extent of the management's ineptitude throughout the entire process with some giftart based off of an old timey war propaganda poster. It was a fun exercise to get it to match as closely as possible, while updating it to the vibe I was going for.

After I saw the Barbie mugshot drawover trend spreading I knew I had to get a piece of it with my two three bunny menaces. Just look at them; Choco and Choco know they're getting out by lunchtime.

Some direct Twitter references involving yours truly; the first inspired by how I was deliberately ignoring a backlog of notifications that I knew were mostly positive and affirming, to save them for when I needed a vibe boost.

The second was based on a quote I found going around, which I thought was particularly funny in my context. Seems a very appropriate thing for a bunnygirl to say.

And finally some more rough-sketched memes, this time in the form of direct redraws of others.

The first is a furry redraw of a couple of photos of foxes in cars with a similar look.

The second is a redraw of how Pikachu looks while riding your shoulder in one of the recent Pokémon remakes, kinda perched and staring off into the distance. I've unfortunately misplaced the screenshot so you'll have to take my word for it.

The first quarter of this year wasn't ideal for art, but once I'd clawed my way back out of the depths of my depression, the floodgates effectively opened.

What followed was a massive spate of giftart and assorted sketches to folks who'd been in my periphery or involved in my process of recovery. Here's a few of the smaller, impromptu doodles from my sketchpad that weren't part of any larger illustration projects.

We'll start with the innocent stuff first, getting kinkier as we go down the list.

To start with, an assortment of little gift busts made for some friends who participated in a mini stream I hosted on my Discord server when I first dusted off my tablet and stylus, as well as a friend who'd been supporting me through the rough period and making me the occasional piece of giftart which would always cheer me up tremendously.

In order, we have; Nozomi, Tiff, ScottishRaptor, Serykins, TigerJames, BlazingPelt, Fiona, and Guba.

Continuing with the little bits of character giftart, these two were for a couple of sweet goofballs who happened to find a way into my Telegram group chat before it was even meant to be accessible to the public.

The left was for Yama of a dragon character from one of his game design projects, and the right is of JesseFerret.

Next we have some Twitter related shenanigans.

The left drawing is my rendition of a really cute, minimalist game character made and showcased on Twitter by @SweatersJPG. When I saw the tiny 7x7 bunny sprite zooming about in the dual halfpipe skatepark, I was enamored. I'm still quite pleased with how it turned out, too.

The right is fairly self explanatory, made as a little gift of thanks to Sammy for their kind words of support on a particularly challenging day.

Last but not least; some kinkier hijinks involving June aka Bellwetter getting softly hypnotized with gentle touches on the left, and on the right, Kaycee making a big stink the way she knows best.

Way back even before my hiatus, Dayton and I were discussing the possibility of making a trade or a collab of some kind together. When I started to gain a bit of a foothold again with making art, I got back in touch with them to discuss specifics and we agreed to mix up a bunch of things we were both into.

We threw together diapers and TF along with some implied hypno/magic shenanigans which I'm well known for. Here's Chocolate having her way with Dayton and "encouraging" him to shift from his typical raccoon form to something a little scalier.

He'll be handling the colours of this piece and I'm super excited to see how much better it'll look once it's done.

Mark has settled nicely after being thrust straight into his new life. Thankfully for him, at least one of his new caretakers is more than happy to do a good job of it.

Not sure if there'll be another followup to this one, since it's a happy spot to end the sequence on.
