So yeah, my art kinda sucks right now.
General | Posted 8 years agoHey guys! Hope you all are well. So I've not been really happy with my art which has gotten me a little down lately, it just kinda sucks for me personally. My art feels stiff and lifeless, and it is just lacking overall. This is not good at all since I wanna draw toony stuff and cartoons are suppose to have a somewhat "punch" factor to it, something my art doesn't currently have.
I've been looking for ways to improve my art and I believe I have a plan, I'm going to draw a few quick pics with a focus on these things:
* Lines of action
* Perspective
* Expressions
By practicing to draw these elements, I am hoping that it will help me draw better toony art. So fingers-crossed that this works.
Any male kangarooes wanna volunteer for a pic? (CLOSED)
General | Posted 8 years agoHeya all! As the title says I am quickly looking for a male kangaroo to volunteer this pic I am currently drawing right now. The pic is close to completion so it will be done before I go to bed tonight, it just needs to be colored. I was going to use a generic kangaroo character but thought that I may as well offer the slot up for you guys in case you already had a suitable character that would fit the role. :)
I can't send a link to the draft, but it's of a teenage male kangaroo who has been put back into diapers (cloth) due to bed-wetting and is not happy about it. So if you fit the criteria and are interested then let me know ASAP with a ref! I will most likely pick the first comment who's character will fit in the already drawn line-art. :)

Commissions will be closed for the entirety of April
General | Posted 8 years agoHey guys, a Happy Easter to you all! As the title says, I will be closing commissions for the entirety of April. I feel my art has been a little "sloppy" lately and not been at the standard that I'd like it to be, so I am not happy offering commissions from this moment on-wards. To correct this, I'd like to take some time to practice drawing in my own time to hopefully improve myself by creating personal pieces and by drawing some of your guy's suggestions from my "suggestion box." I will do a little experimenting but I don't plan on changing my general art style so any changes will most likely be minimal, again the main reason for this break will be to practice. I should be open for commissions again in May when I feel more happy with my art, but I do apologize for any inconvenience this may of cause. :)
Thank you so much for the suggestions thus far!
General | Posted 8 years agoHey guys, I apologize for not answering back to all of you, but I do appreciate all the toony ideas you all have suggested so far! I will admit that their has been a couple of ideas that has tickled my fancy and I will probably get on to drawing them in the next couple of weeks or so, so keep an eye out for that! If you want to suggest an idea of own or make another suggestion entirely (there is no limit to the number of ideas you can suggest) then that would be wonderful, go here if you are interested: https://www.furaffinity.net/journal/8673094/
Again, thank you guys! :)
SUGGESTION BOX! Your chance to get free art!!! ***OPEN***
General | Posted 8 years agoHey furs! As I've stated in my last journal, I want to explore more toony ideas within my art that incorporates themes such as cartoony antics, cartoony effects, cartoony physics, comical situations or any other category that fits the general theme of these types of ideas (hopefully you get the idea). Because of this, I thought it would be a great idea to have a "suggestion box" where you can comment a "toony" idea for a pic (babyfur, non-babyfur, petplay or other) below for me to draw, and if I happen to like your idea then I will draw it for you with your character! So it's a win-win if you are after an opportunity for free art!
This journal will stay open for a fair while so there is no rush, I will only close it when I feel I have enough ideas or in a situation where I no longer want/can to draw anymore ideas for the time-being.
I am open to new ideas, so feel free to go creative or suggest things I have never drawn before! You can state more than one idea if you wish. Also, If you have any questions then free feel to ask me and I'll answer them the best as I can. :)

"Toony" - The Future Direction With My Art
General | Posted 8 years agoHey guys! So I've talked about this a bit on Twitter recently, but I am from this point forward declaring myself more or less a permanent "toon" artist with an emphasis on babyfur content, I know very few of you will be surprised by this but I thought it would be worth announcing regardless. So what does this mean exactly? Well, I have become very fascinated with the types of cartoony effects, physics, scenarios,etc, that were once seen prominently in older cartoons I had watched and adored heavily as a kid. Because of this, I really want to explore and re-create them in my art, even ideas that I have would have never considered before that falls under the "toon" umbrella (even weird ones). Basically, all is fair game to me! So expect a whole new range of toony-stuff to be posted up on this account in the near-future.
Now, I don't plan on changing my art style but I will make tweaks to it every now and again to allow for it to be more "expressive" so it can be exaggerated without looking too "stiff" (especially with facial expressions).
So I hope you guys like the cartoonish classic cloth diapers, cartoony physics, cartoony effects, etc... Cause that will be making up the majority of my art, so I apologize if you were hoping I'd go back to creating more "realistic" art similar to the stuff I used to post up before I started sinking my teeth into this toony-stuff. :)
So it's a nay for a "mature" art account... Heres why.
General | Posted 8 years agoSo first off I'd like to thank everyone who commented on my last journal, it really did help me a lot and has allowed me to come with a decision for whether or not a should create a "mature" account for my more "mature" art. So I have decided against it, why? I was thinking hard about what art I was actually gonna post up that would be considered "mature" and to be honest, most of the stuff I want to draw would be considered "mature" in a "weird cartoony" way rather than than in a sexual or violence kind of way (If that makes any sense). I have no intent to draw porn, extreme violence, gore, exposed scat, vore, or the many other "extreme" fetishes out there, I just plan on drawing more master/pet stuff with an emphasis on pet play, diapers and cartoonish effects, physics, etc. Because of this, I don't feel my future art will be considered "extreme" enough to warrant it's own account as I don't see it affecting/disrupting you guys who currently watch me and have their SFW-filters off, heck I don't think I will really ever use the "adult' tag to give you an idea of how "mature" the art I plan on posting up will actually be.
Now, combine this with the fact that it's a pain to manage two accounts (and the confusion it can cause) means I don't see it as worth it in my eyes. If I was gonna post up some very "fucked-up" stuff then yes I would do so, but for now I believe my art is a little too much on the tame side to warrant a separate account. :)
Different account for mature art, Yay or nay?
General | Posted 8 years agoSo guys, I need your thoughts on this as I am really undecided on this matter. Should I create an additional account here for my mature/adult art instead of posting it here? I ask this as I have just abandoned my Classiccubs account and I feel making another account this early may come off as kind of "douche" so I don't know. If I were to create another account it will be an easy name to recognize it's still me (Like "DiegesisX or something). So this where I'd like your thoughts, I am undecided currently so feel free to express your opinions freely and honestly as you want. :)

Okay, I'm gonna stop being lazy with shading....
General | Posted 8 years agoSo my recent pictures haven't had any shading, and that has been mainly been due to me wanting to practice around with my new art style to get a feel for how I should be going about it without having to "waste time" shading everything as well. But now, I feel I've finally got a hang of my new style so the next pictures you will be seeing from me will have shading in them. So yeah... :P

Apologizes for the art dump, and an explanation....
General | Posted 8 years agoHey guys, sorry for flooding your inbox with my art. The reason why you are seeing all this art from my ClassicCubs account being posted here is because ClassicCubs is no more. It was a neat experiment having two different art accounts while it lasted but it didn't quite click with me as it felt pointless having two accounts to post art when in reality one account is enough. So from now on, all my art will be posted here and I will continue forward under the username "Diegesis." :)
Merry Christmas!
General | Posted 8 years agoMerry Christmas all! I hope you all have a wonderful day with your family and friends. Best wishes from this border collie during this wonderful time of year. :)

Invitation to RP? - Warning: MATURE JOURNAL...
General | Posted 8 years agoHey guys, I have placed a mature warning because of type of content that may be involved with discussion and I don't want any furs who prefer to keep things "SFW" to be exposed to anything they may not be comfortable with. Now... I'm still gonna try and write this journal in such a way that it doesn't come as 'creepy' but I'll let you guys be the judge of that.
I have recently had some RPs with a fur over the past month that I had greatly enjoyed. So much so that it has kinda made me interested in some light RPing again and I may be interested in starting up some new RPs with new furs to see how well it goes (Please be mature about it though, I don't want anyone throwing a tantrum in the case that I decide that we are not that compatible) .
So the point of this journal is that it's an invitation for you to offer if you want to be able to RP with me. Before you do however, please read the remainder of this journal to know what I may require/expect from you so you know what you are getting yourself into.
I enjoy the dominance role, I have always had a dominant personality so that's what I am seeking here (I may be willing to do power-struggle if you prefer that kind of thing). So what kind of fur am I looking for to RP with? Well I am kinda looking for someone who could be "my" puppy or cub, HOWEVER!.... There could be some mature(ish) things could be involved in the RP, so don't expect it to be an innocent babyfur RP experience. I am also looking for someone who enjoys being a feral or a bi-pedal who enjoys feral play, and yes... Diapers will be involved heavily.
Those are some of things I'm looking for... There are a few things that could be considered "strange" for most, but I won't disclose them here for the time being. That will be discussed in private with any furs who may be interested in this offer (if any), and things will be worked out from there. Despite how strange these things may be, they are important to me and could determine whether or not I enjoy the RP as a whole.
However, this isn't all about me. I want these RPs to be about you as well, so because of this I am willing to be much more open than usual to the idea of more mature content and more ideas that could be considered mature. Of course I still have limits on what I find acceptable to RP but I am willing to be more lenient than usual. In other words, If you are willing to do the bizarre things I like and do them well, then I will be more willing to the bizarre things you may like and do them to the best of my ability within our RP.
So that's all I need to explain about this for now, if you are interested then please note me and we can discuss things in private there. Be warned though, I may be fussy. :P

FREE RAFFLE!
General | Posted 8 years agoHey guys! I am hosting a raffle on my other account
ClassicCubs , if you're interested in it then click on this link to check it out! ----> https://www.furaffinity.net/view/24804811/ :)NEW ART ACCOUNT!
General | Posted 8 years agoHey guys! Just posting to state I've created a new account for my art. This account will be my more "professional" account and will be the account where I will be posting my cartoonish-style pictures from now on. My current "Diegesis" account will be my experimental art account and will continue to be the place where I will post any commissions, trades and gift art that I have received from other folks.
My new account is
ClassicCubs , it'll most likely be just a modest account but I look forward to having a lot of fun with it as I now have a place to post the type of art I enjoy drawing the most. I hope you all will check it out! Thanks for reading! :)Plans for a second account...
General | Posted 8 years agoHey guys!
So I have plans to set-up a second account on here. Why? Well I want to create a 'professional' account that is solely dedicated for my art so that I can advertise for trades or commissions more easily without having to worry about it being 'cluttered' up by all my experimental art I may decide to draw and art I've received by other people. If I do make this second account, then this account will still remain as my "do whatever I feel like" personal account where I can post up all types of art and whatever random stuff I feel like doing or drawing, I will also post up any art I receive from people as I always enjoy showing them off. :)
I should have this second account up soon if I decide to make it, but I am not 100% sure yet. Do you have any thoughts or opinions on this? Then please comment and let me know if you think this is a good idea or if it's unnecessary. :)
My travel plans for this summer...
General | Posted 9 years agoHey guys, I hope you all are doing well! It's been a little while since I've written my last journal so I thought I'd give you all a little update about what's been going on with me lately.
So after a long time of waiting and careful planning, I've finally been able to confirm my travel plans for visiting the USA and Canada during this summer season. On June 26th I'll be flying to Ohio in the USA for just over 2 weeks before heading across the border over to Canada on July 12th. I'm super excited for this trip as this will be the first time that I'll be visiting another country, so hopefully there will a lot of fun times ahead on this trip.
Also, don't expect that much art from me over this summer season as this trip will be taking up the majority of my time, but I'll still try my best to get some art done.
Simple poll about my art/animations (Need help from y'all!)
General | Posted 9 years agoSo animations... People here seem to like them and so far I've gotten more compliments for my animated icons than all my other art combined. Because of this, I wanna do a poll so I can see what you guys would like to see from me and I'd very much appreciate it if you would vote as it'll help me out a lot!
So the poll question is this: Would you like to see more animations or more drawings from me?
By picking animations, you'll not only see more animated icons from me but also see more animations in general (such as flash animations). I'll also be drawing more pictures in an animation-like style (An example of this here: https://www.furaffinity.net/view/22973144/ ) and I may also be willing to give custom icons a shot depending on how good I get at creating these animations. However, picking this option means I'll be dedicating less time to creating drawings like the ones I've been doing over the last couple of weeks.
By picking drawings, you'll see more of the same type of drawings I've been doing over the last couple of weeks but a bit more frequently at the cost of seeing less animations.
So yeah, simply pick whatever option you'd like to see from me and comment with your choice below. You can provide a reasoning for your choice if you want, but it's not necessary (although it'll be appreciated nonetheless). Personally, I will get enjoyment out of either option so you don't have to worry about picking the 'wrong' option. Just pick honest and you'll help me lots.
