Laptop Update
Posted 8 hours agoHello, everyone. I wanted to give an update regarding my laptop. As I stated previously, the laptop I used to work on art died, and apparently, the files can't be recovered. Luckily, I have previous versions of some of the WIPs on a hard drive, so I don't have to completely start over. I also got a new laptop and should be able to try and get things set up to get back to work tomorrow, Lord willing. 
So, yeah, there is a chance that there will be a hiatus if I can't get a lot of pictures done.

Laptop is Kaput
Posted 2 weeks agoSo, yeah. Pretty much what the title says. The battery for my laptop with all my art files finally died (at least that's what I think happened, it won't turn on, even when plugged in).  Honestly, the level of just how bad this news is depends on a couple of factors. 
Since the laptop is a really old model, I doubt I can get a replacement battery, and if I can't, then that means all the commissions and other pictures I have in progress are lost. However, there is a chance I can recover the hard drive and transfer the files to my new computer in which case, there is hope for my WIPS.
Though the rub is that my tablet can't connect to my current working laptop, and even if it could, I can't get the full version of SAI to work (even though I paid for it and have the files) So even if I can recover the files, I don't know how long it will be until I can get my set up back. I'm probably going to have to get another laptop and either figure out how to get SAI on it, or get and learn a whole new paint program.
I'm sure I'll figure something out, but I just wanted to post this journal to let you all know, especially those waiting for commissions, that there will likely be some delays in the completion and uploading of art.
I will try to keep you posted. Thanks for reading and understanding.

I’m At My Wits End (I Hate Technology)
Posted 5 months agoI just can’t with technology. I bought a new laptop because I’ve finally had enough with my old, slow, one, but ooops, it doesn’t have a normal HDMI port for my tablet. So I buy an adapter so I can hook it up, but I couldn’t get it to display on the tablet. So I buy a new tablet, but of course the new laptop doesn’t have that port either. 
Now I finally got the tablet to display, mission accomplished right? Wrong! Now the pressure won’t work on Sai and I can’t save for some reason. I figure it’s because I need the full version instead of the trial version (because I couldn’t transfer Sai from my old computer because screw me that’s why) Only after shelling out even more money, I get the file to upgrade to the full version. How do I use it? Oh just put it in the folder that has the Sai application. Ok, so where’s the folder? Oh, there isn’t one? It only gives you a single application when you download it from their website? Sucks for me I guess.
Sorry for the rant, but I honestly don’t know what to do. I’ve wasted so much money and spent the past 4-5 days trying to solve these stupid issues. My brother has offered to alternate use of his computer, but of course that’s not optimal. So needless to say, the commissions and other artwork are suffering delays.
I wanted to refrain from vent journals, but I’m so done right now and it sort of bled into this update on what’s happening.
If anyone has any tips or solutions, they’d be really appreciated.

Burnout
Posted 12 months agoHi, everyone. So, I've been doing a lot of thinking, and I didn't want to do this right after coming back from my previous hiatus, but...
I think I need to hold off on posting until the new year. I've just been noticing that it's becoming increasingly difficult to do art with my job, and trying to make sure I have stuff to post is giving me massive burnout. I think a lot of it might also have to do with recent events, and other things taking up mental space, but whatever the case, I think it's for the best that I give myself time to try and recover. I'll still work on art when I can, but I'll just hold off on posting until January. I have started Patreon, so supporters will be able to see everything I work on as I complete them. However, due to reasons stated above, I will be postponing exclusives in the tier rewards so as to cut down on stress. Those will come back in January as well, Lord willing.

I'm really sorry to have to start another hiatus o soon, but I hope you all understand.
Thank you.

PSA Concerning Today
Posted 12 months agoHey everyone. For those outside the US, it’s election day, and I felt like I needed to say a few words. I know probably the last thing you need is a politically charged rant, so don’t worry, this isn’t going to go there. Instead I wanted to quickly share something that I believe is more important.
No matter who you support, no matter who wins, no matter your political stance, even for those outside the US, I hope you remember this:
Matthew 5:44 “But I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you,”
Romans 12:17 “Do not repay anyone evil for evil. Be careful to do what is right in the eyes of everyone.”
And above all.
Psalms 62:8 “Trust in Him (God)at all times, you people; pour out your hearts to Him, for God is our refuge.”
Be well and God bless you all.

Going On A Hiatus
Posted a year agoHello.
I just wanted to let you all know that I will be holding off on posting for a while. My mom will be needing help in the coming future due to health reasons. Thankfully, it's nothing that serious, but it is something that will require surgery so I will have to help her with things as she recovers.
Basically, I don't know how much time I'll have to work on art these next few months, so I think I'm going to have to do a summer hiatus so that I'm not hurrying to get stuff to post each month.
However, I am thinking of starting a Patreon so people who want to see what I'm working on can see them before I post them to FA. This will only be a few dollars for easy access, but I want to add some more rewards like exclusives at a later date, or maybe start with exclusive sketches and then open up a colored exclusives tier when I get some ready.
Let me know what you think.
So yeah, I'm sorry that this is something that has to happen, but I want to make sure I can focus on taking care of my mom when she needs it. As of right now, the plan is to return to posting in September, but I'll keep you posted if things change. Thank you for understanding.

Ask My OCs: New Characters Added
Posted a year agoSo I noticed that it has been about a year since I posted my Ask My OCs journal, and, even though I'm still working on answering the previous questions, I thought I'd expand it to include more characters. I want to give the newest characters a chance to be asked questions in order to develop them, as well develop some old characters that I don't draw as often. I've added them to the previous journal here:
https://www.furaffinity.net/journal/10574820/
The new characters added will be at the bottom. You can leave any questions you have in that journal or here. Just leave the name of the character you're asking along with the question, and I will do a sketch to answer that question.
Like these: https://www.furaffinity.net/gallery.....170/Ask-My-OCs
Thanks to all of you who participate.

Happy Easter!
Posted a year agoHello everyone, I just wanted to stop by and wish you all a Happy Easter. I had something planned to put in this journal, things didn’t go a planned. But I do want to share a song from my church’s Easter service that I feel sums up what I wanted to say. I hope you will listen to it and really take in the lyrics.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6HO4Ws7IgpY
I feel that this song is in the spirit of the holiday because it is the story of those who have had their lives resurrected by Jesus’ resurrection from the dead after His death on the cross, a death that was supposed to be ours. You see, the story in the song is my own.
I’m going to make myself a little vulnerable here, but I feel that it’s necessary to celebrate Resurrection Sunday. For 21 years of my life, I lived apart from God. I was a liar, and addict, self-centered, hateful, defiant, and honestly I was on a fast track to complete depravity. But even after all that I’ve done, Jesus was there to rescue me by taking all my sin and putting it on Himself. But He didn’t come just so I could die to my old self, He rose again so I could share in a new life, a life that I’ve been living since March of 2024.
Now I know that some might read this and think that what I’m saying is either crazy or even cringe, but I don’t care. I might not know any scientific evidence to prove God’s existence, but the change from who I was then to who I am now ever since I called on the Name of Jesus is all the proof I need. I might still struggle with old habits trying to come back, and honestly, I don’t even feel like I can even right this journal because of how many mistakes I still make. But because of Jesus, I am not identified by those mistakes, I am identified as a child of God.
Wow, this turned out longer than I thought. I hope you all at least read this thing in full. I just want to end with saying that if you are feeling like your life has hit a dead end, or if you’ve done something in your life that you feel you can’t be forgiven for, this is what today is about. The story in the song can be your story. The stone’s been rolled away and you can follow Jesus out into new life.
Thank you, and Happy Easter.
If you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. (Romans 10:9-10)
Whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved” (Romans 10:13)

My Grandmother's In Heaven
Posted 2 years agoSo, I was just told that my grandmother was called home to be with the Lord. I don't want to say the word "died" because I believe that she is alive in heaven. Honestly, I don't know what to feel. I think I'm OK for the most part, I'm just glad that she's not in pain anymore because she's been in the hospital since summer of this year. There are moments when I feel like this is all just a dream or that there' been a mistake, but other than that, I think I'm doing OK.
I pretty much accepted this would happen since Thanksgiving, and I am thankful that it wasn't dragged out as I feel that that would have been the more painful scenario. I was able to visit her one last time last week, and she was able to recognize me,
 marcushunter and my sister and mom. In the end, some of my family in Pennsylvania spent her final moments with her so she didn't pass alone, so most of what I was worrying about was alleviated.
Again, I think I'm OK, just have to process things and wait to see what the funeral plans are. I don't think I'll need to take a break fro here, but if that turns out to be the case then I hope you understand.
Goodbye for now, Mama Sammie. I'll miss you, but I'll see you again one day.
John 11:25
"Jesus said to her, 'I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in me will live, even though they die.'"

Something I've Been Wanting To Try (Ask My OCs)
Posted 2 years agoSo I've noticed that I haven't been doing that much art of my OC's lately. Sure, I've posted some pictures of new characters, but not that much of old characters, and I wanted to try and develop both the old and new ones. 
Basically if any of you have a question or anything you'd like to know about an OC of mine, you can ask in in the comments. Just put the name of the character and the question, and I will do a picture of said character giving their answer. I don't know yet if it will be lineart, flat color or just a sketch, but guess I will base my decision around how many responses I get.
As for the characters available for questions:

Oh, yeah. Please keep all questions SFW. Thanks

I'm Still Alive...Just Busy
Posted 2 years agoHey everyone. Felt like I needed to stop by to post a quick update since I've been silent since Christmas. Basically, what's been going on is that I've recently started a new job that keeps me busy and limits the time I can spend on art.
In addition to the new job, I've ran out of pictures to post and with everything going on, it's been hard to get art finished in time to post each month. So what I've decided to do is go on a hiatus of sorts. I'll still be drawing whenever I get the chance, but I will be holding off on posting finished stuff so I can compile a new backlog.
I still plan to post from time to time, mainly commissions that I've gotten, as well as some writing once I get things polished up.
As for my own art, I will hold off for an for a while but I do want to post some previews of what I'm working on just to give you something during the time off.
I hope I explained things well enough. If there are any questions, let me know in the comments.
Thank you for understanding

Merry Christmas!
Posted 3 years agoHello, everyone. I just wanted to wish you all a Merry Christmas. 
I know everyone's year has been different. Some of you may have had a good year, some not so good. If I'm being honest, I'm not feeling the Christmas spirit so much this year. Nevertheless, I still want to focus on the important thing of the season since it's not what I feel but what is fact that matters. I always try to think of something new to learn from the Christmas story since it can be so easy to view it as just another tradition. But we must never forget the joy that comes from this day.
(From here I will be talking about the religious aspect of the holiday, you are welcome to keep reading, as it elaborates on the topic above. But I understand that it might not be for everybody, so if you decide to stop here, then I hope you have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year)
This day is for remembering when the God of the universe came to Earth in the form of Jesus Christ. The Holy God took on humanity and was born as a baby in a manger and was approached by shepherds and wise men who came to see Him. Think about that for a second, God made Himself approachable, as easy to be around as a little baby. I don't know about you, but I think it is so easy to forget that God is a God that anyone can come to, no matter your past, your hurt, or your circumstances. Whether you've been a believer for a long time, or a short while, if your strong in the faith or are struggling with doubt or mistakes, even if you've never been a believer or if you think you've messed up so bad that there's no hope for you. As long as you are alive, you are able to receive the gift of salvation in Jesus Christ. If He can save me (and I was pretty much a lost cause) then there is no one His mercy and love can't redeem.
So this Christmas, I hope you can have peace and joy and spend some time drawing near to God without fear. I'm sorry if I rambled a bit here, it's hard for me to keep things concise. But if you've never received the gift of the Lord Jesus and you are curious about how to do that, you can check out the following link: https://livingwaters.com/store/gosp.....n-dollar-bill/ Just scroll down to read the description. And if you have any other questions I'd be happy to talk via notes.
With that said, I wish you all a Merry Christmas and hope that your day is full of joy.
Love you all, God bless.

I'm Trying
Posted 3 years agoHey everyone. I just wanted to post an update on what's been going on regarding art as well as what's been going on commission-wise to any clients who read this. I am really sorry for the delays. It's just that the current job I have (though I'm thankful for it and love it) leaves me low on energy for the 3 hours that I get to work on art. 
My dad is also visiting from being stationed in Alaska for the next 2 weeks so I will be likely spending quite a bit of the time I have off work with him. I will be returning to work on art after the 2 weeks and will try to get these commissions done by September.
That is all, thanks for understanding.

Happy Easter Everyone! :)
Posted 3 years agoHello, everyone. I usually don't do go on here on Sundays, but I just thought I'd pop in to wish everyone a Happy Easter. I hope that whatever you do to celebrate, or even if you don't celebrate it at all, that your day is full of joy and rejuvenation. As always, I want to write a little about what the day means to me, so if you would like to continue reading then that's great. If you don't want to read on, that's also fine and I'll just leave it with wishing you a great day and a Happy Easter. :) 
So I'm willing to guess that pretty much everybody knows the story of Easter, that it represents the day the the Lord Jesus rose from the dead after being crucified. I know that I grew up hearing the story, but, even though I knew what Easter was about, it was a long time until I would know what it meant.
The theme of the day is resurrection, that life can be given to the dead, and that out of something bad, God can work it out for good. So before I talk about life, I guess I should talk about the death. Romans 3:23 says that "all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God" and Romans 6:23 elaborates by saying that "the wages of sin is death." So no matter what anybody does, how much good they do, everybody on Earth has messed up (sinned) in some capacity (because we inherited a sinful nature from Adam) and, because God is just, sin must be paid for by death.
But God is also love, and in His love and mercy, He made a way to fix things. John 3:16 says that God loved the world so much that He, God the Father, sent God the Son (Jesus) to earth as a man so that whoever believes in him will have eternal life. Romans 6:23 continues by saying that even though we, as sinners, must be punished by death, "the free gift of God is eternal life through Christ Jesus our Lord"
Jesus lived a sinless life and went willingly to the cross to suffer each and every human's (past, present, and future) death. His resurrection declares his victory over death and promises that we to can share in that resurrection by turning from our sinful selves and entering into a life with Him. This is completely free and open to anyone no matter what you have done. You only need to accept the gift.
I fully believe this, as I (and I am aware that I could be considered crazy for this) have experienced the power of Christ's resurrection. I was in a really bad state and was really rotten to sum it up (and to put it mildly) But in 2014 I turned my life to Jesus and now I am an example of 2 Corinthians 5:17 as the old me has died and I have risen into new life. That's not to say I'm perfect. I still struggle with hard-to-shake sins and my pride can sometimes carry me away. But thank God that I'm forgiven.
TLDRL: Jesus is the key to experiencing resurrection. And if you would like to know the man who can give you a resurrection, then I invite you to check out this link http://store.livingwaters.com/gospe.....racts.html?p=1 and clink on and read any one of them that catches your interest (they do a better job of sharing the Gospel in a quick and concise way that my disorganized self can lol)
And if you are a Christian, but you feel like the fire has gone out (like I tend to feel) remember that the resurrecting power that rose Christ from the dead lives in you and trust that He will have you see a victory.
Thank you all for reading and Happy Easter
Love you guys, and take care.

I Just Need To Post This (About Current Issues)
Posted 3 years agoHello, all. I don’t usually post about stuff like this, but it’s recently been put on my heart to write this journal, I’m just sorry I didn’t do it sooner. It breaks my heart to hear about what is going on in the Ukraine and to see a lot of journals by not only Ukrainians but also Russian members facing prejudice. The fact that I can’t really do anything to help has been causing me distress, though I know that is nothing compared to what they are facing.
But a few weeks ago I was in church and they played a new song that has been on my mind ever since, and I wanted to post it here because it’s all that I can really do. I don’t know if any Russian or Ukrainian users are watching me, or if any will come across this, but even if any of you are struggling with something different I invite you to check the song out. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R84PqRdZ7_Y
I feel that the sums up my prayer for the Ukrainian and Russian people who are suffering as a result of this war, as well as any of you who have a need.
Now I know that this whole situation is a heavy and even sensitive topic so if anything I’ve said comes across as offensive to those suffering, I apologize. I just wanted to spread some love and hope in the best way I know how.
Also, if any are interested, curious, or just in need of a little more hope. I’m posting a link to my church’s Youtube channel where we will be streaming the Easter Service at 10:00 am Eastern Daylight Time.
https://www.youtube.com/c/HeritageCommChurch
Again just in case you want to check it out.
One other thing, I’m going to be disabling comments on this journal (I feel it’s something I need to do in order to get over the anxiety of posting this) but if you have any need, I have a journal where you can leave a prayer request if you so choose. https://www.furaffinity.net/journal/10134136/
Love you guys, take care.

How Are You All Doing?
Posted 3 years agoHey all, I just wanted to do this journal because I know how crazy everything has been lately, and I've been pretty silent for a while so I wanted to check in and ask how everyone is doing. 
I also wanted to ask if anyone needed prayer for anything that might be going on. If you have anything you are dealing with or are anxious about or anything, I am happy to pray for you. I know some things might be sensitive or private so if you don't want to get into things you can just leave it as "unspoken" or something along those lines.
I know some of you may not have the same beliefs as I do, but I encourage you to leave anything that is of concern anyway, but only if you want to. I don't mean to pry, I just love you all and I just wanted to offer help in anyway I could.
Thank you, and take care.

Merry Christmas :)
Posted 4 years agoHello everyone. I know it is rather late, but I just wanted to wish you all a (possibly belated) Merry Christmas. 
I really wanted to write a little something more here like I do every year, but things got in the way. So I'll just say that I hope everyone's day was great and full of joy.
And remember:
The very first Christmas gift, salvation in the Lord Jesus Christ is still available, free, and eternal to anyone who wishes to receive it, no matter who you are or what you've done.
Hope you have a Happy New Year as well.
Love you all ^^

Jimfoxx.Exe Has Stopped Working
Posted 4 years agoIt's been one of those periods of time when nothing I try to draw comes out right. In fact just getting that Halloween picture took everything I had. I just feel like I'm burned out or something as I sit down to draw and I lose energy and motivation pretty quickly. So I've come to the decision that unfortunately, I will have to take a hiatus from art so that will probably mean that I will not be taking any more commissions or working on anything new for the rest of the year. I will probably be posting some stuff that I have in the backlog, but that still remains to be seen.  
That brings me to what will be happening after the New Year. It's been nice uploading every month, but it is likely that in 2022 there will be a lot less art and most likely the posting every month will be a thing of the past. There are a few reasons for this. One, I found that I've been rushing in a lot of my pictures and I want to slow down and not care about fulfilling an "upload quota" so I can focus on improving the quality of my art. The second reason is that I'm going to be focusing on writing a novel as well as some other writing that I've been wanting to work on but couldn't due to all the time spent on art. The third reason is that I need to look for a job and just figure out what God wants me to with my life as I've been feeling restless spending all my time on art and feel like I'm supposed to doing things differently.
So I guess I'll just see where things go, take things from there, and let you all know what the deal is when I know it myself.
If you have any questions or need clarification on anything you can leave them in the comments and I'll do my best to get back to you.

It's Been A While (Ask Me Anything)
Posted 4 years agoHey, all. I realize that I've been pretty silent here. I've been dealing with a lot of stuff mentally. I'm OK now, but it's kept tired in the evenings which is when I usually do my replying and stuff. I've wanted to post a journal of some kind for a while, so I'll start with this since it's been a while since I've done a Q & A.  Feel free to leave any questions you have or anything you'd like to know and I'll try to answer them before too long.
That's all for now, take care everyone.
    That's all for now, take care everyone.
One More Week Before I Start Deleting Stuff
Posted 4 years agoHey everyone, a month ago, I posted a journal giving a heads up for this, but I thought I'd give one last notice before I start removing some of my posts. For any who aren't in the know, I go into more detail here: https://www.furaffinity.net/journal/9874054/
Basically I'm going to remove some of the more lewd posts. Everything is explained in the above journal so you can check that out if you need to.
I will wait one more week and then I will start deleting them. I just wanted to give another heads up before doing it.
If you have any questions feel free to ask.

New Art Schedule
Posted 4 years agoHey everyone, I've been doing some thinking and I've decided to change how I do things for a little while. I'm posting this mostly for me as well since I feel like I have to have it down somewhere in order to make it a reality. I've been feeling in a rut and it's been pretty draining and I've been burning out halfway through drawing sessions. So I'm changing my schedule to make some room for other things that I want to try doing because right now I feel like I can't spend all day drawing all the time. 
So for now, here is how things are going to go. I'm thinking of having two schedules and alternating between them weekly (Let's call them schedules A and B) and they will be as follows:
A
Monday & Tuesday: 2:00pm - 6:00pm
Wednesday: 10:30am- 6:00pm
Thursday: 10:30am - 2:30pm
Friday: 10:30am - 6:00pm
B
Monday & Tuesday: 2:00pm - 6:00pm
Wednesday: 10:30am - 2:30pm
Thursday: 10:30am - 6:00pm
Friday: 10:30am - 2:30pm
I'm going to try this for a few months and see how it goes. I just think that this is the best thing for me right now. I don't know how this will affect productivity but if it does then I'll let you all know. I will also give notice if I have to take a hiatus.
Thank you

I Felt Like I Needed To Share This
Posted 4 years agoI don’t really post serious/political stuff here but I came across this video a while back and it’s been sitting in my brain and I felt like I needed to share it. I’ve just been so troubled by this current cancel culture and feel as though there is a real lack of genuine love and forgiveness in the world today, so when I found this video which addresses this better than I ever could I was moved to pass it around. 
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=zibGUNm0Arc
I will say upfront that it is from a Christian perspective, but I feel that this can be good advice regardless of beliefs. I’m just trying to bring some forgiveness and love back into all of this.
Note: I will be disabling comments due to the fact that it makes sharing this easier as, this way, I won’t worry about whether or not I will get any this (which admittedly is a dumb thing to worry about, but that’s why I’m doing it)
Take care everyone <3

Making Some Changes
Posted 4 years agoHello everyone. I've been doing A LOT of thinking about some things and I figured that I will just post this journal before I put it off any longer. As I said in a previous journal, I haven't been feeling all that great about how I am currently going about things here on FA so now, after thinking about what the changes will be, I think I am as ready as I possibly can be to let you know of what will be happening.
1. First, the easiest thing to say. I will most likely be posting less frequently within the months to come. There are multiple reasons for this. 1. After a good period of being productive, I am finding it taking longer to finish a picture and I feel that I'm beginning to get into one of those phases where it is difficult to get anything to look right (I don't know why this happens, but it does). And so, to keep me from stressing out about it, this is part of the reason I will be slowing things down, to allow myself breaks if need be. 2. My days might be getting busier. I am currently waiting on a job I applied for so if that goes well then I'll have that to devote time to. And even if it doesn't go through, I still think there will be other things that will be taking up my time so I'll need to limit time spent on art. 3. I just want to do other things. When I first joined FA, art was a hobby, but it has now become something of an unhealthy obsession so I think I need to limit time spent on art to get out of this mind set. I also have a few writing projects among other things that I want to work on and with all this time spent drawing that's been put on the backburner.
2. Since I'm on the topic of uploading, I'll move on to the next change. I'd be lying if I said I 100% wanted to do this but I feel like I need to. I'm going cut down on the sexualized stuff. I just don't feel comfortable doing it as it isn't something I, as a Christian, should be doing. So I'm sorry, but there will be a severe lack of stuff of the "lewd" nature in the future. It's hard to explain exactly what I will continue doing and what I will stop doing, but for now: I will no longer be doing ahegao stuff, its just too hard to separate the face from what the "implied act" is. Future pinups will no longer have lewd poses (sexualized spreading or emphasis on "certain body parts" It's hard to accurately describe what the exactly the line I'm drawing is so I guess future uploads will do the explaining.
3. Lastly, I have decided that I will be deleting some of the pictures in my gallery, particularly pictures that fit into the categories stated above. I didn't want to just spring this out of the blue so this will be happening at least in some capacity at the end of June.
Please understand that these changes are what I feel is best for me. If you have any questions then feel free to ask in the comments.
Thank you.

I Need Suggestions For Female Characters :3
Posted 4 years agoI've noticed that lately my gallery has been leaning heavily on the male side and I want to practice drawing females. The problem is that for some reason I am having a lot of trouble thinking of ideas with female characters. So if any of you have any suggestions of any anthro girl characters from media that you'd like me to try and draw, feel free to leave them in the comments and I will see about drawing some of them. 
Anthros are preferred, but will try working with ferals too. Also as a disclaimer, these aren't requests so please understand if I choose not to draw a suggested character.
Thank you.
