So after a month and a bit of being spottily absent from the commissioning game (apologies again to the artists I've been neglecting due to my emotional distraction!) I feel like I'm getting 'back to reality' now, and with life slowing down after a hectic Christmas I can finally get my ducks back in a row.

My detour was down the fact that I went to Oslo to see an old obsession of mine perform live. It was a shameless indulgence in nostalgia, and my mind for a while achieved what I thought to be impossible: a dual hyper-fixation at once. I was both simultaneously basking in the glow of my epic experience in Oslo AND still thinking about my story, but not with enough concentration for me to keep my feet on the ground long enough to put work into communicating about/planning/posting my commissions, clearly.

But as mentioned in a previous post, this Norwegian comedy duo was my entire life - I can't stress that enough. I literally lived for these two men, to the point where one of them (❤️ Steinjo ❤️) 'found me' online and got me involved with their work, and subsequently kept in touch with me for the decade to follow. So when I went to see them live in November, the prospect of meeting them wasn't an impossibility - and, apparently for me, it was an inevitability. XD

That's happy me in the middle, Erlend on the left and Steinjo on the right. They both hugged me (yeah, they both know me mate :P) and were just as sweet and kind as I could have anticipated. They both seemed so grateful for my support and the fact that I flew all the way over from merry old England just to see them live. But of course, I would have regretted it forever if I hadn't. So, so grateful to have met them, and now I have memories to treasure forever. So of course, I was in no fit state to concentrate on much from that point to this.

But as I said, reality has settled in again now, so I'm planning on actually posting the 3 completed commissions I haven't managed to debut yet, not to mention maybe getting some more under way? I've also gone back to my world building after a 2 month break, which is super super fun. I have my heavily modded Skyrim to thank for easing the transition back to my story. God, I fucking love that game.

Here's my Skyrim Brienne and Jaime on a date in Dead Man's Drink. So fun.

I've spent so much money on this hyperfixation over the years it's actually quite funny. Sometimes I have a freak out moment and think 'Christ wouldn't it have been better to save that money for a rainy day blah blah' and then it quickly disappears. What's the point of life if you can't feed your soul? And it isn't over. XD

I'm just so thrilled with this sketch. It's even better than I could have imagined - @elaiz is so, so talented. I especially love how she draws animals - that horse is just stunning. She goes way above and beyond what a 'simple sketch' warrants and I am forever grateful.

And only through the power of AI can we get the tender romance these two characters could have had. Even if only for a moment. Instead we got nothing.

Big kudos to the person who made this - it makes me sigh wistfully 5eva.

I”ll stay with you

Completely breathtaking. I was so damn excited when Natalia told me she wanted to make her own version (or versions as it turned out!) of my commission, with her own canon influenced spin. And just look at the result - absolutely incredible. It took me 84 years to realise these were meant to be viewed in sequence, and the subsequent effect is just magnificent. I couldn't be more in love with Natalia's art. I'm also glad the fandom are enjoying it too - how could they not?

Because I love this scene so much, I decided to whip up some alternative versions including text! Thank you again so much @klfoxartcommissioner for commissioning this piece and encouraging me to play around with the composition a bit!

And now I offer this to you all 🤲

I'm half tempted to rewatch GoT - I have them all on DVD, and I think it has the potential of inspiring me a lot more than any other third party content. But then I think about suffering through *JxC 4va!* and Larry the Villain and unlucky in love Brienne and I'm not sure if the inspiration will balance out the discomfort. I suppose I could fast forward through all the JB scenes (I mean, the fact that the JB scenes only make up about 2 seconds of the entire show will be quite helpful in this regard...) - I don't know. I think I'm still too bitter. PAHA!

I think I'll watch HOTD first. Get my feet wet with that.

My world building bag of tricks and what's been keeping me occupied during my commissioning hiatus.

[And yes, I dabble in AI, which I know is considered the highest level of taboo, especially among artists, but like a lot of topics I'm on the fence about it myself. I understand why artists are concerned over it and I certainly don't like how it's taking up space in the art world, but anybody who directly attacks someone for using it is completely out of order in my opinion. Artists attacking people who use it is like me attacking someone who uses Amazon (pretty much everyone) because online shopping is damaging the retail industry. And as much as vocal artists and other social justice warriors might urge us all to boycott it, it's a behemoth of a movement, and like other ugly things that shouldn't exist, like eating meat, Amazon, Tik Tok etc. it's not going away. It's part of the structure of our world now, which is tragic, but apparently inevitable. So yes, I use it for my own private entertainment. ChatGPT is especially wild - there's no question that space robot can't answer!]

It's looking like I'll have to abstain for 1 more month before I can get back on the commissioning wagon, but I can see a clearing up ahead. The satisfaction I feel over finally getting myself out of debt is definitely worth going without gorgeous art for. But I'll very much look forward to getting back on the wagon as soon as I'm in the black. ❤️ But for now though, the cheap and cheerful world building continues. 😜

No disrespect to the people who reblog the art of course, but I just find it amusing.

I’m not a fan of Game of Thrones.

I’m not a fan of A Song of Ice and Fire.

But of course I have had to actively engage with the material over the years to establish my own story, not to mention the amazing fan creations (which I myself CAN say I’m a fan of, even if I don’t always agree with the author��s interpretation, which is 80 - 100% of the time 😂)

So I am grateful for the source material for introducing the characters (I mean, for their potential if nothing else.) But I’m not a fan. It’s a weird contradiction. There was a Tumblr post describing the ‘foeart/foefiction’ concept which I absolutely love. Need to find it and reblog it if I haven’t already.

This is one of the activities I'll be using to distract myself from the commission cravings. Currently exploring this with my JxB Sims which is fun. Watching them do the 'Seductive Dance' is particularly funny.

I was hoping to sneak in a teeny weeny commission this month but I've ploughed through my money sadly. Need to stay strong. I can at least dedicate time to making plans and lining up enquirers.

[klfoxartcommtext]

After an expensive couple of months I finally have to put my money where my mouth is and take a break from commissioning until I get out of debt. It's not fair to be constantly going back to the 'bank of Mum' to bail me out. It's risky, and unfair, and it's all because I enjoy commissioning work so much. But I need to be strong and hold off for a month or two - I've talked about it before, but it's becoming imperative now. If I just get my disposable income back to the level it was last year I can resume without going into the red. I just got greedy for a while, and commissioning isn't cheap of course.

Talk is cheap and actions mean more, but I'm hoping to be able to start again in September. But I really need to bite the bullet despite all my plans.
