Nor's Bulletins
Updates + Poll!
What do you want to see from me?
Hey there!! Gonna word this sorta like a newsletter partially because I just think newsletters are fun. Essentially, I graduated from college this winter and I've admittedly been knocked out for most of January getting sick / dealing with the holidays / just recovering my energy in general; college was definitely a long/tiring time for me but I'm itching to get back into more art related things, especially since I don't have college competing for my time!
I've got a few personal and more public projects on the backburner that I hope to actually work on and get done to some degree; I'm not entirely sure you guys would be interested in them but hopefully you might come to check them out if I do work up the energy to publish them! I've also got a lot of little designs/ideas I'll be chipping at as well. Since these don't require as much time/energy, I'll be more likely to get these out even if they aren't as requested, but hey! Who knows.
I'm also going to try and be more.. Loose with my art this year? Post more and work on sharing more instead of trying to perfect everything to the point of not being happy with things, if that makes sense. If I do succeed at that, you can check things out on my tumblr! I know that you all see my things I post here too eventually, but if that's something you'd like to see, check me out there too!
Anyways, mostly writing this to ask for feedback now that I've got some more time; can't guarantee my energy'll be here enough to go wild but I'll be doing my best! I've included a poll below, but what do you want to see from me? If you've got any feedback/or just want to answer more than one answer, please let me know in the comments! I really appreciate it! (And if you're unfamiliar with my art examples/commission prices/etc. You can check out my site for both! Quite a bit of it is outdated in my opinion which is what I'm hoping to work more on this year)
Additionally, I've also got a guy I'll be dropping sometime soon:
And this more simple angelicat guy who I've been sitting on the fence about keeping or putting up for offers, and I might be doing the latter:
I couldn't help but scratch the design itch I had (it was bad enough that I did quite a lot of them on my phone, the angelic cat is 100% phone orz). Look out for them if you're interested!
Anyways, thanks so much for reading all or some of this, and happy (belated.) New Years (and lunar new year's!)!

The procedure was perfect, and they would be immortal after- that is what they were promised, and in a way, they were right. It was experimental, repeating the processes that were that ancient- and yet, they fully believed. Everything was perfect.
They couldn't have foreseen when acidic conditions surrounded part of their body, turning parts of their wrappings charred and foul, as if a flame had rushed through them- and when they awoke once again just to find their body turned acrid with a foul stench, they had known it had gone
Wrong.

A (literal) bastard, positioned to be next in line for the house in spite of their lineage due to their parent's loophole of the rules; much to the chagrin of their many, many half siblings who have vied for the seat for years. In truth, they never wanted the seat- in their perfect world, they're playing with the flock of crows that follows them everywhere, sitting in the meadows and towers of their city.
...But when push comes to shove, especially when defending themself against the many schemes of their siblings, they're far from gentle.
Thanks so much for looking!! Happy Halloween from all of us!!
Halloween.. :^)c
Thank you all so much for the support on my charity design, I cannot state how much I appreciate everything!! The design got up to $130, so I've sent $65 to each charity! If you'd like to donate to them, they're the Center for Reproductive Rights and In Our Own Voice, or consider donating to your local reproductive right orgs!
Reproductive rights are human rights!
Hey there- it's been a while since I've uh. Posted! That's primarily because college has kicked back into full throttle, but I wanted to do this a lot earlier (this was originally planned to be around the new years but. Oops.) Anyways though, as a design artist who also likes having empirical data, to start off the year, I've made a little design survey. It's a medium sized, but I've been feeling awkwardly stagnant/I'd really like to know what's working and what's not to start off the year, especially since I want to maximize what time I do have when I have the energy to draw. All that good stuff.
...As a little bonus for anyone who fills out the survey, I've made a little guy for raffle for anyone who fills it out:
I hope you like them- they're a little simple but I had fun designing them regardless. While the form will stay open indefinitely, the raffle will end on Febuary, 21st, 11:59 PM EST. While I may be asleep by then, all forms made past that will not count (sorry about that). Anyways, the link to the survey itself is below:
Thank you so much for reading this, regardless if you fill out the survey (and if you did, THANk you so much), and thank you for sticking around! I know I've been a little inactive but this will help me a lot, and hopefully I can get back into a good stride (I do have some finished and unposted things, so hopefully I get the energy sometime soon).
2/22 Edit: Raffle has been drawn: grats to @archstar!
The survey itself will be open indefinitely, but yeah!! Thank you so much to everyone who gave me feedback, it really, really helps me- thank you so much!
Hi there! I Know I did this without much warning, but I've been thinking about it for quite a while and thought that sooner is a better time than later. I've moved all of my codes to my side/code account, Coturnix in order to keep my notifications here on my main more neat as I actively use TH as a design storage, not a code account. Keeping my coding and design work on separate accounts should keep things organized. As I don't want to rename this account/the code account as I enjoy the username Nor but can't erase all the previous versions of my code linking to Nor, I'll continue to link all codes to Nor and instead have my code account always linked on my profile as a compromise/solution. If it ends up being too confusing, I may rename this account Coturnix (and rename the code account to Nor), but here's hoping.
I hope all of this causes no issues for anyone, but if you were subscribed solely for codes and don't want to see anything here anyways, please feel free to unsub and resub to that account instead, and if you're staying along for the ride here in spite of that- thank you! I really appreciate it. /:^)
Thank you for reading!
Large design backlog (+ a question!)
Thoughts?
(Third and probably final edit; they're all up!! Thank you so much for the input, and sorry about the sudden flood of things in your inboxes! I hope they lived up to expectations! /:^)
Hey there! First of all, thank you for looking at this in the first place! Second, I'm not feeling 100% right now (I've got a cold) so apologies if any of this is poorly worded; but as the title says, I've got a pretty large backlog!... /:^) When talking to some friends of mine, I realized I have a large-ish amount of completely finished to almost fully finished one-off designs that are unposted/just sitting in my files- I really like designing, so I've got a bad habit of finishing/designing things without actually.. Posting them. You can see them here (in preview form), sorted by level of quality:
To amend it, I'm gonna try to start actually posting them, but I'd like to know in what amount/frequency of posting would be better for you guys! I've put a poll in this bulletin, but if you have any other input, I'd really appreciate it!
Thank you so much for reading!
(Edit! I'll probably be posting these guys in around.. 1-2 hours today if I don't fall asleep! Thank you all for the input, legit! :'^0 Hope you like the designs)
Hey there!! I'm really happy to announce that the designs that me and my absolutely amazing pal Cheremtasy are up and open for offers! :''^D She did the lines, and I did the colouring! These fellas are some of the last designs that I was able to do before my hand got busted, so they're essentially my last designs of the year until my hand heals up- hope you like them!
(you can also see their individual profiles here to see them in higher quality:)
