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.

[klfoxartcommtext]

So it's a relief to be able to have paid for the bulk of this now and in one go, so I can free up any subsequent money for commissions. I am skint this month as a result of course, but I'm hoping to sneak in just one new commission...

[klfoxartcommtext]

So an absurdist Norwegian comedy duo I was completely and utterly obsessed with for many years announced that they are playing their first ever live show in November this year in Oslo. Although I haven't been actively fangirling over them for 5+ years, I loved them so fucking much that I felt I just...had to go! I initially decided against it after much painful deliberation. My hyperfixation has moved on of course, with my JxB AU story being the main focus of my life currently. I had the ticket sales open at the launch time - and due to going to a relative's wedding this month in a different part of the country I was beyond skint - so I was completely torn. I thought about how much money I'd have to shell out for it over the next few months (and I don't have much to spend to begin with) and all the commissions I could purchase with the money instead - and I backed off. Decided not to. I'd moved on - they made me manic - I didn't want to be like that anymore, they were in my past etc. etc.

Cut to 3 days later and I hadn't been able to stop thinking about them. My subconscious was bugging me with it and I was dreaming about the show nightly - part of me was hoping the show would sell out and take the decision out of my hands. I looked back at their website - and indeed, the gig sold out in less than 2 days. But - they added a special extra gig the day after! 😭 Clearly the universe (and my heart) was trying to tell me something (LOL) - so I caved. Completely caved - bought a ticket with money I didn't have.

Just to give some additional context, because I do enjoy talking about it - I was such a huge fan of these guys that one of them actually 'discovered' me and got in contact with me. He added me as a friend on FB (he is literally made of sunshine fyi. Part of the reason for said obsession ofc) and saw how much fangirl content I was posting about them on my personal FB. Not only was he not creeped out (or if he was he hid it very well) he eventually asked me if I'd like to post content on their official social media sites. Being that they were my complete existence and his interactions with me were literally adding years to my life, I of course accepted. Went ahead and posted on their sites for about 3 years, loving every motherfucking second. I made fanvideos for them for their Birthdays which they both responded so incredibly to. Although I loved the one who contacted me, the other member - well, he was my super special pash. Completely and utterly delicious - and even though he didn't nearly interact with me as much as his wonderful comedy partner, he did eventually add me on FB himself and would wish me Happy Birthday/Happy Christmas etc. - completely lush. Not only were they aware of me but they apparently 'talked about me a lot' - fuck offfff and when I first went to Oslo on my 'pilgrimage' as I called it (it wasn't to try and stalk them or anything. I just wanted to visit all the places they'd filmed their skits) - my main contact between them (who was following me on all my social medias) literally 'tracked' my movements via Instagram, liking all my posts as I was posting them, and messaged me saying he wished he could be there to show me around. These guys are legitimately famous in Norway, and also around the world through some viral videos. They're actors and composers in their own right - just amazing, amazing guys. Completely and thoroughly lovely. I obsessively collected every bit of work and merch I could get my hands on from them, both physically and digitally - amassing a huge collection including a lot of crafty creations and fan merch I made myself (don't pity me please, I had so much fun. I was living my best life) - got a tattoo dedicated to them - yeah, huge fan. Eventually I ran out of fan fuel and 'moved on' - didn't really follow them for many years, changed my social media accounts for various reasons, started a new phase. Didn't stop my main contact tracking me down on my new Instagram and following me there though. LMAO!

So long story short, I have to do this. I have to be in the same room as them - watch them perform their songs - it'll be incredible. I'm not banking on meeting them, but if I did, it would of course be insane. Again though, just seeing them live will be more than enough.

I worked out that this 3 day trip will knock me back around £500. I've been working overtime this month so I'm hoping I can pay for most things this month and still be able to start new commissions soon, as I have so many plans still. My Mum's Bday is next month as well, so I think July will be pretty brassic for me. I'm holding out hope that I can commission at least 1 new piece next month, but I'll literally have to see how things work out. I don't want this trip to stop me from commissioning new works over the next 5 months, and if I'm thrifty it won't. Especially from August on, I should be back on track will full(ish) force.
