Who's your favorite OC?

(I'm sure you get asked this a lot.)

I do not get asked this a lot actually!

This girl, Little Coyote:

I created her waaay back in high school and used to RP with her a lot with my friends.

She’s kind of a single minded coyote that always was hungry and wanted to eat the other animals around. She was also pretty dumb though, so you could trick her pretty easily.

@buttonscrew is a secret blog of mine that has an actual story featuring her- not just an RP chat that we created. But it’s on indefinite hiatus so I wouldn’t follow it.

(Also remember the newest posts are on the top so I’d scroll down to the bottom of you want to read it in order)

Just wanted to clear this thing up

Friendly reminder that if I haven’t answered your ask the same day, it means either: 

I want to treasure that ask forever

I dont feel up to social interaction

I didnt have time, and ended up forgetting about it

What it does NOT mean:

I dont like getting asks

You’re bothering me by sending asks

SAME APPLIES FOR UNANSWERED TAG GAMES!

#true #also may be saving it for a bigger thing that takes a while

[splungecoyote]

Aww thanks!

[splungecoyote]

A skittish ‘mon

Hey, Drifloon. Have you ever wanted to go out into the world and go traveling with a Pokémon Trainer?

(Thanks for the ask, @weloudfollower !)

Queued up a few of these to post daily until the 1st!

A Mew is a Legendary Pokémon, a Psychic-type.

(Continued from this ask. Thanks for the ask, @weloudfollower !)

True for most of my blogs (can't promise anything about San Franciscolt After Dark)

reblog this if your blog is a safe space on april fools and won’t have any jumpers, screamers, or anything scary or anxiety inducing

TMI Tuesday: 22, 23, and 24

22. When is your prime time to work on your art?

Usually at night when I get home from work, or in the afternoons on my days off (which are typically Thurs-Fri). Since my work schedule is pretty sporadic and/or dab smack in the middle of the day, I often don't have quite enough energy to wind down and also draw when I get home, though.

23. Do you listen to music or watch shows while you work? If so, what’s your favourite?

Audiobooks and podcasts, actually! For Podcasts, I like The Adventure Zone, and We Have Concerns is pretty great too. I just started listening to Fools Gold Sands and I'm enjoy those antics.

As far as audiobooks go, really like The Wandering Inn series by Pirateaba. Sadly only available on Audible, but the narrator Andrea Parsneau is fantastic at voices! I rarely think "this is a female author doing a male's voice" and just get drawn into all the lore and characters lives so easily! XD

I'm currently listening to Nautical Noobs by Ryan Rimmel- also from an Audible only series- and wasn't sure I like it but i'm six books into the Noobtown series and don't seem to plan on stopping. ^^;

When I want something shorter, I will often listen to Reddit stories on youtube. Mark Narrations, RSlash, Hellfreezer, Markee, and Crispy's Tavern are my go-tos for that.

24. How do you deal with artblock?

Avoidance!

Heh, when I don't wanna draw something, it's often because I actually want to draw something else. Because I have so many ideas of what I want to do, sometimes focusing on one thing can be hard. I'll often try because I either want to please others or want to stay relevant, but if I don't allow time to do what I want I burn out pretty quickly.

Rewarding good behavior seems to get the best work out of me!

As far as having an idea about what I want to draw and not being able to think of how to detail it- I'll often search the internet for something similar and pick and choose what to use.

Like, with this scene in Wild Children:

I knew I wanted a stove in the picture because I wanted a hot pot to be the source of danger for Echo here! But despite Heartisty's wonderful help, the kitchen reference I had from her didn't have a stove.

(Discord poofed away those things on the counter and I didn't forget to draw them! Yeah, that's the story I'm going with!)

But yeah, I wanted a kitchen that was similar to mlp canon, so I looked up mlp kitchens and eventually found this one:

So I took colors from the fridge, sketched out what I imagined the stove would look like facing towards the camera and winged it! I think I did a decent job- although the counters still look not quite in perspective to me.

#tmi tuesday #ask game #i may not read physical books much #but I still love to listen to them!

17 and 18

17. What inspires you?

Lots of things! Mostly when I’m trying new things like tv shows, books, music, etc, my mind will often be like, this reminds me of this character! Ooo, that’s a good way to explain magic, but how would it fit into my story? Sometimes just showering clears my mind and ideas pop in.

18. Do you have any larger projects you’d like to pursue? Like comics, shortfilm, a series etc?

Oh, I have a ton of ideas around humans and magic stuff that I’d love to make comics of. Definitely some of it has bled into my MLP:FIM ask blogs, but it’s always been something I’ve hoped to have time to work on but never managed it. 😅

More people are interested in my server than I thought, so here’s an invite link: (will expire two days after the poll ends) https://discord.gg/FRebkgrS

Did you ever think of making a Discord server to talk to people about your AUs outside of Tumblr? or do you think the two might compete and possibly deteriorate the other?

Uhhh… I do have a Discord server that I set up for my fans/friends. But that server is very small and inactive most of the time because I’m so bad at being social- which is why I barely promote it. 😅 So I’m not sure running another one would be within my capabilities. 🤷‍♀️

But I would be open to adding a channel to said server for Lore talk if people were interested. I don’t think the two would compete because likely I would answer questions over there and then repost them on Tumblr with illustrations later. Since the reason I’m slow to answer in the first place is I like to draw things to go with the posts.

Sometimes too, I have overall ideas that I haven’t quite formulated into a readable prose that questions help with that. So perhaps the Discord would be more discussion based as opposed to the narrative format I have on tumblr.

But let me poll the interest here…
