If I owe you art... (Get in here) updated

[=10]
Alright...
i wasn't going to get into this. but things are taking longer than they should.

you all get the short, blunt story.
I've been diagnosed with both a thyroid issue and a blood pressure issue, which are combating each other. the thyroid issue is causing my cells to not want to take in things like salt and sugar, and in turn are not putting out energy like they should. some days, not putting out much energy at all, making me basically bed ridden. the blood pressure issue acts something like altitude sickness, causing my pressure to drop drastically while doing something as simple as sitting. in a recent test I took, it took less than 6 minutes of me standing, and less than 1 minute of me standing perfectly upright to blackout. the test was meant to last 45 minutes.

the point is, i feel like absolute garbage. the few things I'm putting out these days don't feel like they're my best work, and they're few and far between. None the less, I still love doing them. Art is my role in life. i hope you can all have patience with me, and know that I -definitely- am not giving up on -any- projects i've been given. If you would like to withdraw your request due to the time it may take, I understand. Just let me know.

thank you for reading and,
please,
no 'get well soon's. xD

I think the Fates just take that as a cue to make things a little worse.
*hugs for all*



First word: Sick. Second word: Hospital.
Those are the answers I'm giving for the long waits.
But we aren't going to talk about/dwell on that.



This was mentioned some time ago on headshots I uploaded, though it was discrete. I'm working on getting all my debts cleared and put away. So if I owe you anything at all, please, email me at Madeofrib@live.com or post here. This also goes for those of you who requested chibis from me, but didn't actually have the process started yet. Just let me know if you would still like one or not, and I'll get to work.

Can't draw your deer's human face? [accepting requests still]


Let me try.
Just quick pencil sketches to warm up for homework. They're for free, so if they don't capture what likeness you have in mind, I'm sorry but I won't be redoing them.

Deer with generally deer faces can also be offered. Just give me a link to your deer, and a description (however vague you want) of what you think their face should look like. Please refrain from giving me a picture of a person and saying "they look exactly like this". That. Is not what I would like. Nope.
I'll pick whoever I think I can complete, male or female, adult or young, it doesn't matter.


Update


I need some more of these. Several suggestions below have been drawn already, though are unscanned...when I do, it'll be with better quality than the last round.

I'm looking for some diversity. This includes fawns, I'd also like more masculine faces (male or female), or any scars/abnormal features. At the moment I'm working on drawing the head from different angles and refining my drawings. So there's a potential for epic headshots, inked or lightly water colored...

Here's hoping people are still interested.



done-
aaron mai chanti

^ Got a new scanner for Christmas. These are gonna get re-scanned and others will look better.

Community, assemble!


I need everyone who can think of one to list me a RANDOM pelt/mask/antler combination. I don't want something that is common- just string a few together for me. You'll see why soon enough.

Sets that exclude a pelt or mask or have default antlers are okay (even encouraged) too.
