I'm doing art tonight!
h'okay. So tonight! (And tomorrow), I have two art projects to finish. One is a found art sculpture, and the other is simply painting a bas relief I've done. This is simple enough, but often I get tired of the monotony and wander off to play video games because I've "done enough of that for now".
NOW! I have decided that for every thirty minutes of work I do, instead of pissing off and playing Ratchet & Clank, I'm going to do sketches! It'll flesh out my sketchbook, give me practice, and break up the monotony of gluing together hundreds of pieces of cans.
What I would like to do is, every 30-45 minutes of work I do, I'll come here (and the other places I'm posting this) and pick one or two things to doodle. If you could do me a solid and post your ideas for new shizzazzle to scribble down, I'd appreciate it (and you get free silly sketches too!).
YES! I will do your 'sona! Camera shots for now, scans later upon request.
Edit3: Done with YT4LYFE and DefineCoincidental! It's already been an hour, so maeEast has been moved to the next round. Next round is final for tonight. Gotta get some sleep after that! :P
Edit4: maeEast here, Shadowviper12 in favors. Posting those and then bedtime. Also removing edits as I go because it'll get long.
Tomorrow I start with eph798 because fuck yes Batman.

The Mane Six in the Spotlight
On the hooves of releasing the wildly successful My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic comic book tie-in series (which sold hundreds of thousands of copies while it was still in pre-order!) IDW have announced a new My Little Pony Micro-Series. Each of these six full-color issues while feature one of the “Mane Six” characters from the series in their own showcase adventure. First up is Twilight Sparkle — ably assisted by her dragon friend Spike, of course. “Twilight Sparkle becomes enthralled in a literary masterpiece. Dismayed to hear the series never continued, Twilight goes on a quest to hunt down the reclusive author, Jade Singer. The first issue was written and illustrated by Thom Zahler. Look for it in February, or pre-order it (before everyone else does!) at Mail Order Comics.

Furries Should Be One Big Family
The furry community means a lot to me. It always has growing up, even when I didn't know what it was called or who I was. The furry community has helped me more than once, and in more than one way. It means a lot to me, and I don't know what I would do without it. Without it, I think, I would go back to that endless loop of being "Oh yeah, I'm legit 100% alien attention whore with no life pretending to be something I'm not." To my new, real me. Expressive, and who I [am] really deep down.
Not only have I found myself, but so has my mate, and I've made many friends, more than I would in school or in other places. People who are more understanding, and accepting, who try to listen to you and you can listen to them.
Yes, there is a bad side to the community where people earn us the bad looks and thoughts, but if you look past all of those sick popufurs, there's people in here, like Papa Bear, who care and stop to help not only you, but others in need of help, no matter what.
Regardless of how many people who come and try to argue, push you down, you have other fellow furries who will help you back up, will drop everything to try to help. And you would do the same for them. Not only me, but other people I know try to help the newcomers, the ones who need help figuring what it's really like to be a furry and who to be friends with when it comes to the big overview.
The importance of it all, if you don't have to be in the closet, you don't have to hide who you are. All simply you have to do is be yourself. And you have people who are here and will support you. And will as long as you do to them. People are kind here, where people give out free art, and show people new things, help them in this long and winding road of life.
We do not choose who we are, but we choose to show it or not. And here, in the Furry Community, you can do that and not be judged. And when you are here, you can brush those unaccepting people away, because you know you have people here that stand side to side with you.
You learn new things every day, and you can come and help cheer people up when they're down in the dumps. Just being nice gives them a smile, where they can express how they feel, blow off the steam when they need the feel to rant, and people will take their time to stop, and out themselves in your shoes, and smell the flowers. They listen when you try to explain, and everyone works as a family.
We are all one big family.
One Big happy family.
