Doodle Dump: just a bunch of sketches I made the last few months of my wolf gal, Shiloh! And maybe a lil cameo of Nyru lol

I never feel as if I draw her face consistently, so I’m trying to get better at that. Been a busy summer full of projects but, I’ll try and share more soon!

Finished pencil commission from a few months ago featuring @eddiesantiago.bsky.social’s Razor and my gryphon girl, Rebel!

Compared to the last drawing, this one is a bit more somber as these two friends share a quiet moment of support for one another during tough times. <3

Support NovaEden Art with wild soul. Perfectly messed up in this ever so sophisticated world.

Their DA account is now “NovaEden” but they primarily post over on Ko-fi now!

Soooo glad you’re okay and they were able to do the procedure sooner! Rest well!

What a wild freakin’ ride to follow but glad you finally made it home safe! 👏

I guess I can’t say it would be awesome to see my girl in your style hahaha ;) Thanks for the chance! 🩵

Finished pagedoll commissions for the month of April! I loved making all of these and appreciate the support 🩵

Most were YCH slots offered on DA/FA, but I tried out a few customs as well. Gonna try out some furry/anthro poses next, so stay tuned my fellow furbies! lol 👏

Thank you and I’m glad you feel that way! 🩵

I’m going to experiment with a simpler/less-rendered version to see if I can find more of a balance between both price and time spent. I’m thinking maybe a cel-shaded style or something…? 🤔 Could be fun to try out a new style, if nothing else!

Gosh right?? I used to charge $25 back in the day so I remember haha

And thank you for the compliment and feedback! 🩵 I think you’re right that developing a cheaper + simpler/less-rendered version of my badges would be the best thing to try out. Someone mentioned $35-$60 range so that seems fair! 👏

I’m struggling with pricing mainly because I know how tough things are right now and art is a luxury. I’d like to keep my prices as low as possible to appeal to tighter budgets but also not sell myself short…? I suppose I could explore smaller/cheaper traditional art options. 🤔

Is $115 + shipping too much for a traditional con badge these days?

I’d like to open for a couple of slots soon but I had to raise my prices just a bit to try and cover the time they take me to make. It’s about 6-7 hours each 🫠 if I could work faster I would hnnggg

Thoughts?

Man thank you so much for posting that, as I’d been hoping to grab something like this for the longest time! 🙌 And your setup inspired me so much and I’m about to go nuts in here trying to capture that same energy haha

AHHHHH they sold me all their remaining displays too!! 🤩

My traditional art game is about to become entirely too powerful lol I just got home so it’s time to reorganize my entire desk and get these new additions cleaned up and ready to be given fresh purpose! 💪

WIP: soooo many new pagedoll babies that are ready to be cleaned up and shaded! 👏

WIP: MAD 😡

Korra had her spring grooming session + a bath on Friday and….yeaaah this is why she needs a professional every 3 or so months because WOW 🙀

Second pic is just after the groomer left. She looks so much better now and you can tell she feels lighter/better, too! 🩵

Pose 2 has been claimed!

1, 4, and 5 remain 🩵

Pose 3 has been claimed!

Pose 2 is pending while 1, 4, and 5 are still available 🩵

You are too kind and good to me — thank you for the shout out! 🩵

Recently received this sample from Zap! Creatives of a keychain prototype for my Shiloh charm 🩵 the colors came out a bit too saturated but the quality of the charm itself is great (I like the double layers).

Now to see how it holds up over time!

Art by the awesome @heychikinan.bsky.social 👏

My fella and I spent five days in Costa Rica last week for a friend’s wedding and had a blast! 🌴

I’ve never been to a place where all the local flora/fauna was completely different. Toucans flying around, wild monkeys, hiking in rainforests, tapir crossing signs…it was WILD and I loved it 💚

I would order so many Mews 😭😭 absolutely adorable!

All that laminator drama aside, the badge is finished, laminated, and has been mailed off to @jamsthecat.bsky.social as of today! 👏

Love the way this one turned out 🩵🎶

I bought a new laminator as a precaution but in the end, I think it was my laminate sheets being too old? So my old machine still works 😮‍💨

Lesson learned: refresh laminate sheet stock and also run it thru the laminator 2-3 times if it looks cloudy or the seal line isn’t crisp!

After running it through, it did not fully seal along the edges like it normally would. It looked very cloudy and when bent, it crinkled and pulled away from the art.

So in a panic I cut the artwork back out and was able to go back over it a bit to touch up some areas.

I’ve had my laminator for 19 years and this last weekend was the first time it did not perform as expected and scared the crap out of me 🥲

Long story short, I was able to recover the artwork and believe the issue was with the laminate pouches and not the laminator itself? 🤔

WIP: all together now! 👏😻

I’ll be cutting/assembling everything for @jamsthecat.bsky.social’s badge tonight!

I love seeing the progression of these badges through all my different creation stages. I don’t think I’ll ever get tired of making con badges for the fandom 🩵
