Told you so.

It’s been a long time since I’ve sat down and drawn a dragon like this. I’m used to quadrupedal dragons with lizard noses and short, thick necks, but this guy was a lot of fun. Also, wattles are silly and I love them.

Net Neutrality has been Repealed.

As predicted, all three men voted to dismantle the protections. Please go to their twitters and call them gopher fuckers.

You may panic, but be smart. There are plenty of lawsuits waiting in the wings. Net Neutrality repeals have failed twice before when taken to court. However- do not bank on it, there is always a chance for this slimy shit to slither right through.

What you should do right now is call Congress and tell them what you think.

If we are quick enough we can force them into using the CRA- the Congressional Review Act. You can tell them you want that. 

We have 60 days to do this.

Here’s a link with some info.

You’ll see a script on your screen, or you can say something like this:

I support Title II net neutrality, and I urge you to use the Congressional Review Act to pass a “resolution of disapproval” reversing the FCC’s December vote to repeal the Open Internet Order.”

You also need to call your Senators and Representatives, especially if they received money from any telecom companies (Verizon, Comcast, AT&T and so on). Give. Them. Hell.

You can also Text “BATTLE” to 384-387 to use a simple chat-bot to send a message to your lawmakers.

Text “RESIST” to 50409 for ResistBot.

Here is a page from the ACLU with instructions.

If you are outside of the US, consider donating to these organizations- they will continue the fight for the free internet.

REMEMBER. THE BATTLE ISN’T OVER UNTIL YOU GIVE UP.

NEVER TIRE, NEVER STOP WATCHING.

ITS HERE

FINALLY I can drop the news :’D For the past 6 months all of my work has been shrouded in mystery, but now I can finally show what I’ve been working on for so long! I found a publisher for my Garden Dragon book and we’ve been working like crazy to expand it to a solid 80-pages long children’s book! You can now order it ONLINE by following the LINK HERE!

Ok so what is this book all about? I created a world in which tiny dragons camouflage themselves as flowers in your garden! Every garden dragon species has a specific plant that they grow and inhabit. Because of this, they are dependent on the pollination of their plants by bees, which is why these dragons have sworn to protect them from any harm. This book is meant to let children’s imagination run wild and make them eager to explore the nature around them. It teaches just how valuable bees are for our planet and what you can do to give them a helping hand.

So does this mean…? Im a full-time author and illustrator now :D Right now we’re working on getting this book translated so you’ll be able to order it in ENGLISH in spring 2018! All of my german followers can now already order the book on hamburgparadies.de

I am so excited to finally be able to share these news with all of you.  I still cant believe I’ve actually published my own book and now we’re working on turning it into a franchise! More things are to come in the future and from now on I’ll be able to keep you guys updated. Thank you for all the support and patience during these past 6 months in which I had to remain silent!

Time to cast the #kitsune. More #behindthescenes. If you want a step by step tutorial on the process, let me know. I could make one in the future. #mythicalbeasts4life #mythicalbeast #artdoll #mythicalcreatures #Mythicalbeasts #fantasybeasts #fantasycreatures #softsculpture #fantasysculpture #posableartdoll #artisttoy #handmadedoll #polymerclay #arttoy #stuffedtoy #stuffedanimal #handmadecreations #doll #etsy #fauxfur

Some #behindthescenes of pictures. This is my #workspace for casting and molding pieces. Kind of a mess, but gets the job done. #mythicalbeasts4life #mythicalbeast #artdoll #mythicalcreatures #Mythicalbeasts #fantasybeasts #fantasycreatures #softsculpture #fantasysculpture #posableartdoll #artisttoy #handmadedoll #polymerclay #arttoy #stuffedtoy #stuffedanimal #handmadecreations #doll #etsy #fauxfur

new breed- actual water dragons! :D

so i kinda went through every new breed suggestion i could find, but none were quite to my liking… so i made my own! these guys are from the water flight, and i tried to make them as aquatic as i could considering apparel restrictions. ive taken to calling them gulpers for now C:

gulpers are from the murky waters on the border between the tangled wood and the sea of a thousand currents. the poor water visibility there makes sight hunting difficult, and so they use their barbs to sense vibrations in the water instead. they are ambush predators, waiting hidden in the silt with only their feelers exposed for prey to pass by.

gulpers arent picky eaters either! they’ll try to eat anything they can fit in their mouths. the expandable pouch on their throats allows them to swallow a large amount of water- this can be used to make a vacuum that draws in food. this pouch can also be used to hold excess water which can be discharged with great pressure as a defense mechanism.

behaviorally, gulpers are patient dragons whose hunting tactics often cause other breeds to see them as lazy gluttons. in reality, while gulpers can sit around all day waiting for food to swim into their mouths, they are capable of being surprisingly agile if need arises. they strike with extreme speed and precision, and will defend their territory fiercely, though they would much rather avoid conflict if possible.

anyway, thats my take on a possible water breed for now! :D there are lots of good ideas for aquatic dragons (whales, plesiosaurs, mosasaurs, sea turtles… etc) and i hope to draw more varieties later. i just hope fr does introduce some kind of aquatic species in the future! ovo
