Entering this as the likes/dislikes seem like a fun challenge for me. I love designing characters but it's nice sometimes to make them to someone else's preferences. Can't wait to see the other entries, too!

I don't have much time lately to keep all my galleries updated, especially this one it would seem... so here are links to the three places I am most active:

-Furaffinity- (Updated most often, some nsfw)
-Facebook- (Updated least often, mostly adopts, finished art or commission openings)
-Twitter- (Mostly rambling and retweets, but also plenty of recent art, adopts, commission openings etc)

I'll still update here when I can, mostly with my favorite pieces! Also I may be changing my name here, we'll see.

Hey, so it's been since July 2015 that I updated with a journal here, and my last post was July of this year. Time flies! Especially since I mainly post my art to FurAffinity and Twitter these days.

Anyway, the past year has been something. It's been a shit year as a whole, but personal life-wise, most everything has been wonderful. Still so happy with my Nick, the most beautiful person I know <3 We got married on Halloween this year on our 5th anniversary. My parents moved into an amazing new house, and we moved into a bigger house as well. I reconnected with old friends, made new ones, made a lot of art and Nick and I went from pescatarian to fully vegan! This was not an easy choice; just a couple years ago if you asked if I could live without eggs, cheese or a big red steak I'd have never imagined it. But for completely ethical reasons, we decided to go 100% cruelty-free, or as close as people can get to it nowadays, and I'm never going back. I'm just ashamed it took me this long. :c

Hmm, what else... some art of mine will be appearing in AyCee's new candy gore art book, GummyGuts! I can't wait to get the books in the mail  

I'm gonna try to post more art here soon! I know I keep saying that and forgetting, though. lol

Thank you all so much, I rarely post here the past few years but I'm trying to pick it back up :3 I mainly post to FA these days (Vera) and my Tumblr (slime-mold). But I've been here for over a decade and plan on continuing to keep this at least somewhat active! Thanks to those of you who have kept me on your watch lists, and especially thanks to those who are kind enough to comment, it gives purpose to sharing my art <3 *slimy hugs for everyone*

I want to test everyone's interest/activity in a bigger project involving my species, the Langurhali! Comment here (WITH the info mentioned below) if you WILL finish your end of the trade by June 1st! Sign-ups close MAY 5th! I'll add you to the list, mix up the names and set pairs up to do art trades with each other. The theme will be BY THE WATER! In your comment, please INCLUDE a reference or two for your Langurhali (you may include more than one Langurhali, if you have them, as options! It's fun to be surprised!), and what kind of water they'd most likely be seen by... a river, ocean, pond, swamp, stream, waterfall, spring? They could be IN the water as well, if they are aquatic. They could be drinking from the water, looking at the water, fishing from it, etc.! There's a little bit of every kind of geographical zone found on Earth within Willora, so the possibilities are practically endless. Yes, this does mean including a background, hopefully that won't put anyone off!

I'll throw my name into the hat as well and share my details, just to give an example of how your comment should look -
Vera (swamp or beach [think Everglades]) - v-e-r-a.deviantart.com/art/Ver…
Conjuka (stream or pond) - blattaphile.deviantart.com/art…

I'm thinking of making a video showing names being pulled out of a hat, but I have an interesting idea for it x3 we'll see if it works lol
