I don't like how quiet my profile's been while I keep working on irl things, so with FWA in two weeks...how about a quick journal meme?
━ ━ ━ ━ ━ ━ ━ ━ ━ ━ ━ ━ ━ ━ ━ ━ ━ ━
Where are you staying?
I'll be at an outside hotel coming in but by Friday I'll be in the main hotel, the Marriott :3

What day are you getting there?
Wednesday night, albeit SUPER late ;;;

Who will you be rooming with?
My second room is full of friendos I met over Music City Furs, a Telegram group for furries in TN. No FA profiles for them here because I don't know their @'s on this site yet.

Who will you hang out with during the convention?
My Twitter/Barq mutuals and YOU, hopefully!

What is the best way to find you?
Either here or on Twitter (@flanderpelt). I don't really like using my Telegram for small talk >_>;;

Are there any panels you will be attending?
Opening Ceremonies (if I'm not still stuck at pre-reg), Fursona Pins Trading Panel, BIPOC Potluck, Scragster Group Photo (it isn't an official event BUT I heard it's in the works!!!), Fursuit games, Moonlight Festival, and probably a lot more that I'm just not remembering.

Are you hosting any panels?
Not this year, sorry!

What do you look like?
I don't like posting pics of myself out of suit for personal safety reasons—just look for Pippi sticking out of my backpack.

Will you be suiting?
Hell yeah

What is your gender/pronouns?
I'm a guy but my sona is not, so please use they/them if you see me running around as Flanny ;w;

How tall are you?
5'8"/172cm!

Are you mated/in a relationship?
Nope lol, love is dead

Can I talk to you?
Please do!! I'm a silent suiter though so if you wanna really talk about stuff, you might want to catch me at a party or somewhere else where I'm not suiting (*coughcoughtherhythmgamemachinescoughcough*)

Can I touch you?
High-fives are okay, but ask before you tackle me into a big hug! Snugs are reserved for close friends and the like. Also I might wear something kinda ~frisky~ for the Moonlight Festival on Friday so don't be dumb or weird around me unless I imply that it's fine.

Can I buy you drinks?
Only if we're at the Moonlight Festival and you can't think of any other way to break the ice. I haven't actually gone drinking in public yet (turned legal during the first half of COVID) so in terms of what drinks I like outside of my house, idk yet! Definitely nothing hard though lol

Can I hug or snuggle with you?
Yes to hugs, just ask first! Snugs are for private meetups only.

How long are you going?
Late Wednesday night to Monday! I will actually still be in Atlanta after the con for a bit (until 5/11) since I have family down there and it's Mother's Day and all that.

Will you be going to parties?
Lmao ofc??? Whenever they come up, just throw me an invite and I'm sold :)

Will you be performing in your fursuit?
I'm always in-character when fursuiting, so uh. Yes

If I see you, how should I get your attention?
Yell my name or tap me on the shoulder; PLEASE don't grab me by my backpack or by my plush!

Can I take your picture?
Sure! Just let me know you're taking it so I don't end up looking really weird in it fdjhgkfln

What's your goal(s) for the con this year?
I guess aside from celebrating my birthday on that Sunday (5/8), just embrace who I really am and go full-on furry mode for the first time in my life!!! I was way too shy to talk to anyone when I attended my first furcon (MFM) and I am NOT making that same mistake this time around. Oh—and also flex hard af on the pop'n machine, too <3
━ ━ ━ ━ ━ ━ ━ ━ ━ ━ ━ ━ ━ ━ ━ ━ ━ ━
So, uh...if you're also going and want to meet up, comment or send me a note!
(ps: happy weed day :9)

Haven't written in a while, huh?

My health is still pretty bad, but little by little I'm pushing through— and by pushing through, I mean I (re)made my Trello page! My hope is that this will give you guys more transparency when it comes to how efficient I've been working lately.

You can view it here: https://trello.com/b/KGQCP4b4/commission-queue

The raffle winner will (FINALLY) be drawn tomorrow, by the way; I wanna use today to catch up on that last commission, sorry! ; w ;

Hey y'all, just wanted to give an update since it's been a bit since the raffle ended. A wave of depression just hit me out of nowhere these past few days and it's been a struggle just to get out of bed in the morning ;; so if I'm really slow with pulling the winner/responding to notes, that's why. I scheduled an appointment next week to see if I can get out of this sooner but until then, expect little (if any) posts from me for the time being...

Honestly I think it's because the 1-year anniversary of my dog dying is coming up but I'm also not a medical expert so. Who knows ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I've been slow these past couple of weeks with checking social media and completely missed the fact that I passed the 50-mile mark ;_; But thank you so much!

A lot of people are coming in from the art raffle I'm holding right now and it's really exciting!! Hi everyone!!! :D

Hey n'yall,

I just wanted to let my watchers know that I'm running a HUGE sale on my Etsy store right now to celebrate Valentine's Day AND the release of the new Pippi buttons.
Starting today, if you buy at least two (2) different items from me (one for you, one for that ~special someone~), you'll get 30% off! This is the biggest discount I've offered to date, so take advantage of it!

ALSO! Because I know not a lot of people will read this, I'll let you in on a secret.... Pippi is now CONFIRMED to soon be a part of the Paradox Pins family! There's no set date as to when their pins will be available, but I'll post a preorder page onto here as soon as I know when to expect them. The wait time right now is eight (8) months from acceptance (give or take), so don't expect to see anything until Q4 of 2022.


But yep, that's all for now!

I just posted my commission prices for my digital artwork this year, so this journal entry basically explains what to expect with each option:

B/W SKETCHES: $35 (+$20 for an additional character)
- Sketches are done in grayscale coloring without any shading. The price is the same for half and full-body commissions.
- No groups! I only do B/W sketches for 1-2 characters at a time.
- I only do NSFW art in this style (commissioner and character(s) must be 18+)


FULL-COLOR: $75 (+$30 for every other character, up to 2)
- These are more cleaned up, in full color, and include shading!
- Up to three (3) characters per commission piece.
- Backgrounds are subject to an additional charge, but usually start at $50 for a scene.

CHARACTER PORTRAITS: $50 (+$10 charge for heavily detailed designs; ask if unsure!)
- Same quality as my colored sketches, but without the background. Think of it like concept art! Perfect for toyhouse profiles and website graphics.
- You will receive two (2) versions; one with a white border effect and one without.
- My adoptables are given to clients in this format! So if you're curious about any examples of what to expect, you can check out the designs over here.

Writing this little entry to remind everyone that there's just a little over 24 hours left! :0

Hey n'yall,

Just wanted to ping my watchers to remind them of my Art Raffle happening on Twitter right now. So far only 3 people have entered, which is... very few. But it is only day 2 since I've posted it, so plenty of time to still enter if you haven't already!

And about my fursuit... well, the fur swatches of the colors I need for my second suit are taking a lot longer to arrive in the mail and it's starting to look like they won't be done until HowlFest. Which is fine! Because now this gives me time to redo a few of Flan's parts (mainly the bodysuit and the feet, I don't know how I did this, but.. at some point I grew an inch and now the skin of my legs shows every time I put them on. Sooo $120 later, here I am redoing the whole thing. :'/ But hey! At least I can make it roomy enough to fit in the ice vest I got for Christmas last year!).

Right now his torso's done, arms sewn in and already it looks (and feels) SO much better than my first run. I'll take pictures of the before and after once it's complete, so you can see what I mean!

- (P.S: ...Did you know that I run a Twitter and Instagram for my Pippi plush? Well now you do; go follow them! >:D)

Another small victory! Even if most of you were probably just lurking around my fursuit pics lmao (/lh), it still feels good knowing that my exposure in the community is starting to grow; thanks everyone!! >:D

Yeah I know it's cringe that I'm making a big deal out of a small number but still, 20 watchers is 20 watchers. That's enough to fill a classroom-ish, so thank you!

I've already gotten SO much more positive vibes/feedback from this community in the first month of interacting than I did in the entire seven (7) years that I was in my old one, which really says something about the group I used to hang around with tbh. So figured I'd say a quick little "thanks" <3

Hey n'yall,

Friendly reminder that my Etsy store's sale ends after January 1st! That's in three (3) days! All the C grade pins have been sold, but I still have a few event exclusive pins in stock (including a Kickstarter exclusive!), should you wanna take a look.

(All pins are 10% off, and orders over $35 get free shipping <3)

Hey n'yall,

So after spending my entire weekend taking pictures of 40+ Fursona Pins, I'm happy to announce that I've reopened my Etsy, DRACOPHOBIA! Everything's 10% off until New Year's; after that, I'll be opening a section for my leftover adoptables on there, too. But I knew that spending two all-nighters setting up would take a toll on me, so that's why commissions have been kinda quiet last week. Wanted time to rest up and all that.

So I'll be returning to work on them tomorrow!

1) PAYMENT METHOD: Only Square and Paypal are accepted for online commissions. For those uncomfortable sharing their IRL name, I also accept CashApp. Cash is accepted only at cons, and that’s only if I’m tabling.

2) PRICES: My prices (and any extra charges) are non-negotiable; this includes YCH commissions. I will only start work on your commission AFTER you have paid the initial invoice in full; no splitting/payment plans (except for large sticker orders).

3) EDITS/ADJUSTMENTS: Please be as clear and concise as possible when giving me details on your commission! Edits are free of charge during the initial sketch; I also don't charge for minor edits (ex: wrong color) but if the fix requires drastic changes (or even a do-over), then get ready to pay a separate fee. Communication is important!

4) ON NSFW CONTENT: Art commissions that contain adult/mature content will not be publicly posted under my public alias. You will have to contact me personally for such requests, I do not publicly advertise those on here.

"Adult content" in this case includes, but is not limited to: gore/violence, nudity, sexual scenes, and references to alcohol/drugs (including cannabis/weed).

5) OTHER LIMITS: Commissions that involve heavy detail (individual scales, mecha, etc.) will not be accepted. I also do not do commissions that involve controversial topics, like current events or politics (both sides).

6) NON-FURRY COMMISSIONS: I am VERY comfortable and open to doing paid work that involves humans and quadruped animals! No extra charge for these (unless they're an add-on to another commission).

7) REFUNDS: Please only contact me for this if you've paid me and I have NOT started your commission after seven (7) business days. If I have already started, then the transaction is final. NOTE: I might reach out to you and offer a refund earlier than this, if a sudden emergency comes up on my end.

8) COPYRIGHT: You (the commissioner) are allowed to repost the commission and use it in social media, as long as credit is given somewhere on your page. Unless you purchased commercial rights (see next paragraph), you CANNOT use my work for any kind of personal profit, like reselling it as stickers and prints, without my written consent. You CAN, however, distribute transparent commissions as freebies (think of free stickers at a dealer's table!), so long as you yourself are not making any profit.

9) ADOPTABLES AND BUSINESS: Adoptables don't need permission to be used for personal projects, like a fursuit or plushie for yourself, but if you plan to use them for profit with your business (ex: as a premade fursuit to sell at a con), then you must purchase commercial rights! The cost will always be 300% of the original price (Ex: something that cost $20 would cost another $60 to use for a product or promotion). This fee is non-refundable and separate from what you initially paid.

10) EXCEPTIONS TO COMMERCIAL RIGHTS: You (the commissioner) are not allowed, under any circumstance, to use my artwork to create and/or modify non-fungible tokens. Using my commission(s) for profits associated with non fungible tokens or any form of cryptocurrency is strictly prohibited. You also cannot use my work in any way to train artificial intelligence programs (also known as AI). This will not change even after purchasing commercial rights. Clients who are found breaking this rule after receiving a commission from me will be blacklisted from working with me in the future.


These TOS Rules are subject to change; check on them BEFORE sending a request to me- always!!
