When this post is 1 hour old, I will randomly select 1 requested commission from the replies and draw it for free (Value: $30-100).

I am planning to up my game, so this is both meant as a test of my own skills and a way to show off my wares :3

Afterwards, I will post the drawing in 3 different stages, and ask about the approximate value of the commission... as a way to update my price list.

Cheers, fuzzy hugs and all that!

Counting from the top, that's user: Pseudoboss11

Raffle is now closed.

His description is as follows:

I still don't have a visual ref. Im planning on getting one next month, when I get some money.

I'm feeling particularly lazy, so I'm just going to copy-paste this from another site.

Race: Dragon Gender: male Age:23 Height/weight: 6'2", 150lbs (sans tail and wings) Profession: engineer/leader Appearance: a blue dragon who is lean and quick. He is toned like a martial artist, not like a body builder. The scales on his back are large and navy blue. They fade into small, light blue scales on the sides of his torso. In lieu of hair, he has a pair of horns that curve slightly inwards. They terminate about 3 inches above the top of his head. His wings are quite large, going from just below his horns to calf height. His sensory regions (eyes, mouth and paw pads are the SFW bits) are a particularly vibrant shade of blue. They seem to glow (and in some settings, they can.) Like all dragons, his coloration changes slightly depending on his mood or situation, but the same general pattern is always there. Over time (months to years) dragon scales can completely change hue.

Clothing: depending on the situation, he can get away with total nudity, business suit, or any other clothing, he typically dresses well and confidently. Personality: he is focused and driven, while not a genius, he is able to throw himself at any task and has unsurpassed mental will and stamina. When he is focused on a goal, there is no stopping him. This can give him a commanding aura that some read as intimidating or angry.

That does sound a bit complicated. So good luck to me, I guess :3

I was at the Arizona Diamondbacks v Pittsburgh Pirates baseball game with friends and family today and saw two fursuiters (one appeared to be a rainbow wolf). I have no clue if they are in this group or known at all, but as a new fur, I wanted to say how cool it was to see people out in public and so open with this part of them, to them and all of you who do this I admire, respect, and am a bit jealous of your bravery

Back in the day, E.T. Bryan and E.W. Bryan created Gremlin Trouble, a black & white anime-inspired comic book series about a hapless storm fairy turned into a puffy-tailed gremlin by a bolt of lightning — and the adventures that came next. That only begins to scratch the surface of how crazy this fantasy/adventure/j-pop story became. Well now, that same team have returned on line with Gremlin Princess: “Digit, a young Gremlin Princess and her pushy fairy best friend Appleblossom are enrolled in Miss Stahlbacken’s Academy for Young Entities, a harsh discipline school for fairy delinquents. There, sadistic magic using overseers rule, technology is banned, and escape is impossible. Hilarity ensues.” Makes much more sense, yes? See what you can figure out by visiting the Anti-Ballistic Pixelations web site.

hey every fur, I've been really bummed out lately. I've been trying to muster up the energy to hang out with people but i just can't. I want to be more connected with the furs in my area but they're all Rave extremists and they all do very elicit drugs. While i don't care if people have their hobbies, they themselves are much to overwhelming for me and make me very uncomfortable. I was wondering if there are any furs near me who wouldn't mind just getting coffee, going hiking on the dunes behind my house or just watching movies and annoying my cat.

Dear Papa Bear,

I'm a 21 year old male and I have this friend I spend a lot of time with and we have fun together playing games and stuff. We spend so much time together I started to develop feelings for him to the point that I fell for him, let's call him Barry. But when I told Barry about my feelings for him, He told me he likes me like a best friend but he doesn't like me like that and that my feelings for him would fade over time. But they haven't and we've been doing some sexual stuff like sexting and roleplaying online, on some occasions, we kinda he physical on webcam, showing off to one another. I don't know what to do and I feel so confused, I was hoping that maybe you could clear things up and help me out.

Hi, Lucas,

Naturally you're confused because Barry is sending you mixed signals. If he really doesn't think of you in "that way," then why is he sexting with you and showing off on cam? Either Barry is not being honest with his own feelings and he really does want you in a more loving way or he is being very cruel to you by teasing you like this and he should stop it.

What you need to do is get a straight answer from him, as in, "Barry, if you just want to be friends, then no more sexting and camming, period. But if you want to continue, then be honest with me and say you want a more intimate relationship. You can pick one or the other, not both."

Let me know how it goes. Good luck!

Papabear

Dear Papabear,

Thank you for you advice last week, it really helped me out with Barry, but I have another problem, we manage to find some common ground, we decided to be friends (best friends) but we limited our actions to RPing with on another through phone and computer. When he knew I wouldn't give up my feelings for him, he told me that he doesn't mind if I love him like that, it makes me feel horrible thinking that I may have forced my feelings onto him when I told him that I loved him and made me think I screwed things up for us, I thought I may have went too far when I told him I loved him one night just to see if I would get a responds from him, but nothing..... What should I do....?

Hugs and kisses

Hi, Lucas,

Did you ever see Disney's Aladdin in which Genie tells Aladdin he can grant all kinds of wishes, but one he can't do is make someone fall in love with you? Same thing: you can't make him fall in love with you. It's up to you if you want to stay friends or not. If you feel tortured that you love him and he doesn't love you, it might be too awkward to continue the relationship, but if you feel you can live with it, then do so.

You told him your honest feelings. No more you can do. One hope: people do change over time, and he might change his feelings later on, but there are no guarantees.

Sorry I can't give you anything more enlightening than this. Hugs.

Papabear

Dear Papa Bear

Remember me? You helped my out before with Barry in the past. I'm so grateful for the advice you gave me last time and ever since then I manage to tell him my true feelings for him and he responded positively to them and feels the same way about me. But I wonder about us being intimate. I want us to be, but the only intimacy we really get is when we role play together online and every time I try to bring it up he either says no and/or says he might as well get offline or too shy about it.

Every time I bring up that the closest thing we get to sex is role playing. He tries to say it's our special little thing or tries to get rid of it all together, which doesn't work and ends up with us role playing again. I just want to show him how much I love him and how much he means to me. I guess that makes me some kind of pervert for thinking like that.... So please, Papa Bear, what can I do to show him how much he means to me without scaring him off or ruining what we have.

Thank you for you time.

Hi, Lan (or Lucas, as it used to be),

The following assumes you are able to meet Barry in person and I’m not wasting my time giving you advice on how to have virtual sex online because, to be brutally frankly, that’s just stupid.

I’m assuming Barry is about the same age as you, yes? It’s possible he’s still a virgin. If so, he might just be having some anxiety about a first-time experience. For instance, he might be nervous that he’ll disappoint you in bed because of his inexperience. Even if he isn’t a virgin, he could be relatively inexperienced and still nervous about it. Role playing online is always safer, and you can pretend you’re much more adept—and endowed—which would be another issue if he feels he might be physically disappointing to you. And another possibility is that he might have been with girls and this would be his first homoerotic experience, so, in addition to the nervousness about sex, there could also be the nervousness about doing something that most of society considers taboo.

Two keys for this lock: 1) never force someone to have sex, of course; if they don’t want to, then it is wrong to try to cajole or push the idea on them; 2) you don’t have to leap into bed and shoot the arrow into the target, so to speak. Start with cuddling and kissing. If that feels comfortable, move to heavy petting. As they say, work your way slowly around the bases and don’t try for a home run the first time at bat. As you do so, remember, you don’t have to steal bases and work your way home in one inning. Take several days, even weeks, or months. Since he is shy or inexperienced or uncomfortable or all three, this could take time, so be patient.

It’s okay, too, to occasionally take a step back. Say you move into second base, but he gets nervous again and you have to withdraw to first for a while. That’s okay. If you say you are doing this as an expression of love, then make love to him. There’s a big difference between making love to a partner and having sex. People who want sex are going for the climax of the play without enjoying Acts I through V. When you make love to someone, it is not just anatomical. It is about looking into the other person’s eyes, touching them softly in intimate ways on all parts of the body, kissing them tenderly. When done correctly, the entire experience is highly enjoyable and you almost don’t want the climax to come because you don’t want the lovemaking to stop. But, when that does happen, remember to continue the lovemaking. Make sure, of course, that your partner has had an orgasm; don’t be selfish. Once you have both had that rush, it is time for the afterglow. Hold each other, kiss, rub, sigh, talk softly to each other.

A good lover knows that foreplay is a big part of lovemaking; a stupendous lover knows that afterplay is equally important.

So, do not push Barry to have “sex.” Don’t even set a date in which you inform him you intend to be intimate with him. Instead, just have a date, and try to get intimate with him slowly. Don’t put pressure on him. Hopefully, he will enjoy it, and if he appears nervous, don’t get frustrated. Back off a little. It’s like fishing, in a way. When you feel that nibble, you play the fish before you snag him on the hook. That’s a little gauche for a metaphor, but you get it.

Finally, if this has all been about virtual sex and not real sex, please do us both a favor and get yourself a boyfriend who can be with you in the real world.

Good luck! Wishing you love,

Papabear
