AAAAACCCCCKKKKKKKKKKKKK

I'm officially actually going to put it on my calendar, with a warning and everything :V

AGHHHHHH HOW COULD I MISS IT--

Yep, it's my birthday! And I'll be turning 18, and entering into a new section of life <:3
And I guess I'm kicking off this new start with a trip to Disney World with my family ^^
I can't wait for it, it'll be exciting :3
We leave the day after my birthday, so I won't really be on much at all for a week, just so everyone knows <: )
So yeah x3

Yes, it's in the plural. I decided to actually randomly determine two requests instead of one <:3

But yeah, here we go!
The winners of the requests aaaaaaaare:

 coolboy21

and

 DanielHeroX2.0!

Congrats to you two! And a big thanks for those who participated this time around!
Don't worry if you weren't picked, I'll be opening requests again eventually, just make sure to keep your eyes peeled in the future :)

While I'm still in school, it's basically over for me, so I'm gonna go ahead and open up the first request for my last high school Summer break!! :3

CLOSED

RULES:
-Basically, comment below what you want your request to be!
-Make sure to be decently detailed and include character refs!
-For this request, I'll take a random one most likely sometime tomorrow! Before then, I'll make sure to tell you if your request will be ok to be entered or not! If I deny your initial idea, you can keep giving an idea until I say that idea would be fine with me ^^
-As a heads up, I DON'T do NSFW, and drawing female characters is not exactly my forte.

Happy requesting! May luck be with you when it comes time to randomly choose :3

WOOT! Just wanted to commemorate reaching this many watchers!
I don't have any special pic ready for this, but I promise I will for 200! :D

Thanks for your support everyone! I'm glad you've all supported me and my art, and I'll make sure to keep providing art for you all to view~ ^w^
Thanks again~!

Just wanted to say, I'm still working on those two requests! Both the NITW one and the regular request!
The end of school has just been a little taxing, but now, nothing is going on at all, so hopefully I can finish them both soon (the regular request is practically done, just need to look it over and edit, then post <:3).
Also, whoa! 1 watcher away from 150 watchers!! Thank you all so much for your support~! <3

UPDATE: Oops, should've closed this sooner, my B >w<
But yeah, I've already chosen the requestee and are currently working on the piece, so stay tuned for that sometime in the future ^^

I'm actually making some NITW styled pieces right now, so since i'm in the mood... I might do a request of sorts for a random person also in the NITW style ^w^

IMPORTANT: Comment below a character you want drawn in the NITW style :)
But please, I want it to be an ORIGINAL character, so do not suggest a game, TV show, etc character such as Bowser, Crash Bandicoot, etc. <:3
(However, Pokémon sonas and etc are allowed ^^/ )
Also, comment below what you want their body type to be (which really just includes regular and fat XD)

I won't announce however who I'll be picking, since I'm not 100% if I'll ever get to this (though I feel I just might ;3 )
So go ahead! Comment below, people~ =P

 MonicaMarshmallow ^^

Congrats ^^
Since life is weird right now, I don't know when it'll be finished exactly, but expect it to be done ^w^

I've been feeling kinda down lately, and I feel like working on a fatty art for someone out will help cheer me up <:3

So yeah, if you want a request, simply comment it below or note your idea to me, I'll pick ONE that I find the most creative and interesting to me after I feel I've been asked a decent amount of requests or after enough time has passed <:3

It's  COMICANDBLUE-FIRUKO's birthday tomorrow, so please go ahead and wish him an early birthday, or wait until tomorrow to tell him :3

Looking at the 131 watchers I now have, I have a lot to be thankful for. I always try and say "thank you" to you all through each of my pieces and their descriptions, but I just wanted to give a BIG thanks to you all, for all you have done for me here!
So, THANK YOU, for supporting me through your watches and favs, it means so much to me! X3
I'll do my best to keep creating my art well into the far off future and beyond~! :D
Once again, thank you everyone <:3

I dunno, I just feel like I'm not talking enough with you guys...

And sometimes it's kinda important that I get out what's happening in my life on here, I just gotta REMEMBER to. >w<

Just wanted to get that out there, haha.
Just a silly thing to exit with, but who else is honestly SUPER excited for The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild to drop on the 3rd next month? :3

PLEASE read if you want to know about what's been happening recently in my life, and what changes I'll be making here on FA (something like that <:3)

LIFE UPDATES
So yeah... Remember how I said a while ago my Grandmother wasn't doing well? Well... Soon, she's going to pass away. She's basically on her deathbed right now... The treatments didn't work, and another surgery would most likely kill her. So, my parents and my uncle decided to take the better route, and just let her rest, chance it, and see if she would get better. As we know now, she hasn't, but I guess it can't be helped... At least she'll die a peaceful death at her home, around family. ;c
In other news, my work on here may slow down again, as I'm going to need to focus time into a comic project I'm doing for my AP art class. I have until the end April, so I should get it done, but I'll do my best to get out some other art as well. I'll probably post more sketches, and even the "pages" of the comic on here ^^;

"ART" UPDATES
Basically, remember how I made up that "Next Request" system? Well, I'm trashing that idea. I've made too many different ways of getting other requests into a queue, to try and relieve stress, but it only makes stress. I'm tired of constantly rethinking ideas for my request system, so from now on, I'm going to make it much simpler: I'll either straight up ask for requests and pick one I like, or I'll do a request raffle, depending on my mood. Hope you all understand >w<
Also, with the Comic thing going on in my life, I think requests will be rare for a while. Any works I post, I want to be from my ideas, or just pics that I want to draw <:3
However, I guess if I feel up to it, if I'm in the mood, I might still ask for a request, dunno! >^<
RPF is still in the works btw! I never really want to end the series, hopefully in a few months I can do those faster~ <x3
In other small news, I'll eventually get around to posting a New Years pic (shhhhh I'm thinking of it as "not late", it's still the new year >//w//< ), which include some of my characters, and a small update to two of them <://3

I know I did~ ;D

Just to get it out of the way, I would like to say thanks to those who asked for a gift from me in my Fatty Christmas event, it really meant a lot~! <x3
And also, I WILL BE DOING A THIRD GIFT, two seems too small for me. So for those who haven't gotten a gift, you can perhaps expect to get one sometime after Christmas. I'm sorry if you don't get one, I just don't/didn't have the time to make gifts for everyone >w<

And with the life stuff, I just wanted to bring up my Grandmother. She's been having a bad time these last few months, as she's had to get through cancers and tumors, and now she's had to get through some strokes she's had in the past week. Tomorrow, we're gonna visit her again in her rehab center with a special Christmas vista <:3
But yeah, I don't what else the future has in store for her, so please, hope and pray with us that she gets better ówò

"Well, with Christmas closing in, I thought it'd be a good idea to participate and get some folks into the Holiday spirits~!
Basically, ask me for something you want! I'll make sure to get your requests to the Big Yoshi himself! ;3
*cough cough*Me, so don't sweat it*cough*
I won't be able to get gifts for everyone, but whether you get one from me or not, I still wanna wish you all a Merry Christmas! Or Happy Holidays! Or neither! <:3"

HOW THIS'LL WORK:
This is a fatty Christmas we have here! Basically, all you fatties and the like, ask for a gift in the comments if you want, for yourself or one of your characters! The gift can be almost anything, and make sure you give me a ref so I can quickly access it :3
I suppose I'll keep this open until the end of Christmas day, so you'll have plenty of time to ask! But the sooner, the better <:3
Most likely I'll be choosing people randomly, BUT if I like your requested gift and character enough, I think I'll be sure to do them :)
I WON'T be announcing who gets a gift beforehand, it will be a surprise ;3
Considering I don't want to take forever, I'll either keep the pics as a traditional sketch with dark lines, or I'll just digitally outline them. You'll all just have to wait and see for my decision on that ^^;
I also won't have a limit to how many I do! I'll just go until Christmas is over x3
... Which means it's possible I might post one AFTER Christmas, sorry if that happens haha ^^;

Anyway, I think that's everything! So please, go ahead and ask for something, and I'll let you know if it's good!
I hope I can do something with this, as I want to do something for a holiday since I missed Thanksgiving this year >//w//<
Let's hope I can do good or at least decent on this! Let's all have a Merry Christmas! ^^/

Considering I missed doing a Thanksgiving pic or event, and because I want to make more for you all, I'm planning a simple Christmas event in my head for my Christmas Break ^^
I'm think about just calling it "A Fatty Christmas", and with it I'll be giving relatively simple requests to some people :3
(For my current requestees, I have not forgotten your requests, they will be done eventually! The Christmas requests would take priority over yours for all of CHRISTMAS break until they were done <:3)

However, I still need decide how much work I'd put into the requests, how many I'd want done, and if I even can do the event.
So stay tuned about this, most likely I'll announce, or announce that I'm not doing it, a day or two before my Cristmas Break in two weeks! ^w^;

And the winner, with final votes of 7, is...

PYROAR~!

Asking because I finished the game recently, and I LOVED IT <3
It had its flaws, but overall, I think it was a great Paper Mario game ^^

And as a fun fact: Somehow, I managed to end the game with a Max Paint Capacity of 420 X'D
I just find that funny, especially since I was looking forward to getting to that amount for the whole game :^)

... That I accidentally misspelled "Halloween" on my Halloween picture? <://3
Whoops... Sorry about that <XD
I'll try to fix it up today <://3

Just saying, I'm hyped for it :D
For those who don't know and have heard of the planned Nintendo NX console... Basically, Nintendo Switch IS the NX, and it looks amazing :D
Go and search up the trailer for it on Youtube (if you haven't already) to see what the console is about x3

It's time for another R.P.F. journal ^^
This time around a few things have changed on my end. I posted an update about it a while ago, but I will include the changes below with everything else :3

Whether you know what's going on or don't, here's an explanation to what this series of mine is:
As you can probably see, there is a long list of pokemon below. It is a randomly generated list of pokemon that will all eventually be fatten up!
The pokemon names that are crossed out mean that that pokemon has already been fattened up, and that you can already find the pics for the fattened pokemon in my gallery.
Now, to go more in-depth with the process and etc.! How are the pokemon picked for each subsequent R.P.F.? Simple: I randomly choose two of the available pokemon from the list, then draw them, line them digitally, and when they're both done, I'll post them relatively close to each other. After that - THIS IS IMPORTANT - I will put up a journal where you can vote on your favorite of the 2 fat pokemon images.
There will be links to the images, and the images will have links to the journal.
THEN, after a few days have passed, I will start to color (a.k.a. finish) the image with the most votes! SO, make sure to vote for your favorite so that it can be completed!
Some time after the voted image is complete, I will post another journal for R.P.F. that will announce the two new pokemon to be fattened up.
To see the current pokemon that will be fattened, just scroll a little farther down!

As a side-note and update, I will also be including a section in the description of every image giving a basic description of any challenges I faced while making the image, since I view R.P.F. as a kind of personal challenge, since not all pokemon are easy to fatten up. So please, take a look at that section if you want to see the silly things I have trouble with <x3

Anyway,
the two random new pokemon to be fattened up this time:
Azelf
AND
Pyroar

Hope you will enjoy their new fattened selves~!

Here is the current status of the list:
Slowbro
Pyroar
Leafeon
Pawniard
Makuhita
Flygon
Krookodile
Mewtwo
Purrloin
Crobat
Blitzle
Typhlosion
Kecleon
Abra
Donphan
Poochyena
Jirachi
Bouffalant
Absol
Seisimitoad
Dewott
Azelf
Gabite
Vigoroth Noivern


The list above, and the two fattened Pokemon, were decided at wheeldecide.com ^^

This time of the year is my "super busy time", where I have marching band to do most weekdays and most weekends >w<
So yeah, art may come out slower than usual. HOWEVER, it's also because I'm working on multiple pieces at the same time! So, I'll give you a general idea of what those pieces are~ :D

1) A short, 3-panel TFWG comic that I've been working on for a long time (a.k.a. I've been putting it off and want to finish it ^^)

2) A pic of one of my favorite Undertale characters~ ;3

3) And a pic to celebrate something that has happened recently!! X3

So, keep an eye out for those! It may be a bit before I finish them, so I might post some sketches to fill in the gaps. <:3

Remember how UT had its first anniversary some days ago?
Well, this video was released on that day, and I just listened to it yesterday, and I must say... ITS SO GOOD! A 30 minute medley of the UT soundtrack, that also comes with great art to look at...! X3

Basically, if you're a Undrtale fan... Watch and listen to it!! :D
You know something like this good when it actually makes you cry towards the end <;3
