Hello! So, you might have noticed a lot of noncommission art the past week.

I needed to recharge from a bit of drama plus I got sick.

I will be working on coms again either tonight or tomorrow. Though, for the next month I will only work on coms on my day off due to my job not scheduling to account for the holidays. Retail, amiright?

Of course, if I haven't started your art yet, I will message you when I do. I like doing my owed work in the order it was ordered(or won in the case of raffle art)

This means my normal turnaround time is taking a hit.

Things like raffles will end on schedule. And I will probably post Moorn'tal raffles whenever I need to mentally recharge because drawing the silly things is really relaxing.

So, I had decided to spin-off my open species world into an idea I had but just wouldn't actually fit it.

https://toyhou.se/~world/129910.miri-village

The focus is on exploration and worldbuilding, with the focus species being aliens that crashlanded in a search for a new home.

For an idea of what they look like, here's a couple that, while not all involved in the ARPG, are some of my favorite examples of them.

Miri is in what I would call a beta state. It's not finished per say, but the mechanics are best ironed out by using them. There is a character slot system, but slots are earned with the ARPG's currencies only and only apply to characters being used in the ARPG. Due to the species being open, you can make as many beans as you want but only a certain number can be considered active in the ARPG at a single time.

So, I feel like doing a talksprite-type art. So, have a free raffle!
The prize: 1 talksprite art with one character and a background that may include up to 3 additional characters.

Examples under spoiler.

To enter:

Simply comment on this bulletin

Additional tickets:

Make a bulletin advertising this(+1)
Tag up to 3 people(+1 per. Please make sure they're okay with being tagged beforehand)
Suggest how much I should price these(+1)
Infodump about your favorite OC (+3. Keep it SFW.)

I will be giving numbers for this raffle and using a random number generator to pick the winner.

This raffle ends on October 30th.

I realised a few weeks ago that setting OCs to auth-only doesn't hide their art in my art tab.

I have a lot of images, so some characters in my trades might of had their art hidden. If you find a trade character with hidden art, do not be afraid to let me know so I can unhide the art.

The only characters I am keeping that are publicly visible and have unhidden art should be NPCs for Starship Yena. I might have still hid images on those, so just let me know because it would have been accidental.

So, I've been thinking of posting  DTA/WTA on the 1st. However, I am at a loss of what species to do.

So, I guess toss me some suggestions.

I figured I would finally write this out. Mostly to make it easier when people are offering designs for my trades.

I do not have preferred designers.

Will look at:

Humanoids

Anthros

Ferals

Fantasy and sci-fi

Frilly clothing(Suits or dresses, I don't care)

Blues

Rabbit themes

UNICORNS 

Simpler designs

Jewelry 

Spots!

Stripes!

Space themes!

Bug themes! (Especially roaches and termites!)

Hyenas! (Love me some good yeens)

Soft designs

Monsters!

Design elements I don't like:

Overuse of the blur/smudge tool(I like gradients...just not as the whole design)

Spiders/spider themes

Cyclopes

Busy designs

Will not look at designs from the following:

Literally anyone that have pedophile/zoophile/grooming allegations

Aermerea's owners

Any closed species

Dottiepaws (if you know, you know)

I wanna do some silly doodles. Style might vary, but they'll be more or less short little things.

No, they won't all be frogs. Unless you want a frog. I'm not gonna stop you if you want a frog.

Some recent doodly examples:

I will be rolling results for this raffle in a few hours: https://toyhou.se/23003141.raffle

And this raffle is ongoing till next week: https://toyhou.se/23091805.raffle

So, I want to develop lore for all my dragons but need to gather juice.

Here's the dergs:

https://www1.flightrising.com/lair/677029
https://www1.flightrising.com/den/677029

The only thing I ask is nothing NSFW.

I do plan on eventually giving them human forms/drawn refs, so I might eventually upload those to TH(But only the drawn stuff, because I feel weird about uploading site assets to TH)

Placements in my lair are not set in stone. They may move around as I add lore.

Also, I am working on unlocking my hibernal den completely so as to store them while I work on them. I'd be happy to trade unneeded materials.

My records of what I need: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/12R5cTQ7_5J6yEjOgKaf7rGF4qNS9stik2DlfLo8jlGw/edit?usp=sharing

I can screenshot what I have later.

I've been on the fence. Initially I wasn't gonna do art fight. But there's just no good alternative, so here I am!
