Oh hi 8'D

I haven't been on lately due to severe depression and life issues.

I am just on now to say that I forgot what my password to Tumblr is and the email I used for here..

I am only logged in on my phone and MUST reset it so I won't be logged in anymore.

If I can't get back on here for whatever reason, you can find me by the name Krystami on facebook or @krystame on twitter. (I have other sites I am on, just not as active.)

I am not planning on leaving and hope I can get back in T.T cause I used all my main names I like on here and would rather not have to start from a bare account again.

Reason why I haven't posted in awhile. (Please involve no one please..)

I’m so sorry I haven’t been online, my life has been terrible lately and just a ton of bad.

I really hate to mention this *here* but I haven’t posted anything.

I am in a bad relationship, my computer and tablet gets threatened to be broken, I get physically harmed because my tics due to tourettes cause me to “warrant” it…

I have no motivation or will or anything and have been trying.

It has been horrid.

I am scared that he could see this right now.

Hopefully though…hopefully that will change soon, or I can endure long enough until the time comes where I won’t be this way.

Please trust me I just want out of this relationship with no involvement of others.. That is all but I am EXTREMELY dependant on someone, idk…

Please don’t make me afraid to post I am just letting it known why I haven’t posted in ages.

Please forgive me. I have a plan finally, after years of dealing with this…and it is possible, please believe me.

Important information for Content Creators on Tumblr

okay i know ive posted alot about this just now, but now that ive got it more or less figured out I’m gonna make a better post here and include the tags relevent to my interactions in it to ensure no one else in my fandoms/communities are blindsided like i was. 

I encourage you to make your own, or to just recopy this, tagging the fandoms and communities important to you!

CONTENT CREATORS: TUMBLR IS HIDING YOUR POSTS!

If you make a post with external links, your post will be hidden from searches. If you make a post and link to your redbubble, no one can search for your post. If you make art and link it to your deviantart or artstation, no one can search for you post. If you make any post and just throw on a “hey here is where you find me!” no one can search that post. If you want to recommend a fic or a youtube video, no one can search your post, if you… hell you get the idea. Tumblr has completely shut down content creators on this hellsite and its fucking infuriating.

Edit:  I have just confirmed that the post type “Link” also does not show up in the tags. Thats right, there is an ENTIRE TYPE OF TUMBLR POST that cannot be searched. G-FUCKING-G TUMBLR.

WHAT TO DO?

It shuts down posts with external links, so at first i assumed internal links would be fine. and they are. if you make a page on your tumblr blog called like /links or something you can certainly link to that. But in that way you run into an issue, tumblr mobile is a piece of shit and cant load tumblr pages, and itll just take you back to the mainblog any time you try.

The best solution ive found so far is put all your relevent links in your blog description like so:

and then in every content post, call tumblr out for being a piece of shit and direct them to the links in your blog description.

Edit: In the top right hand side of photo posts you can click on it and include a single link as “source” that should work if you have one link neccessary. though if you need more you are still SOL.

CONTENT CREATOR SUPPORTERS

It is important now more than ever on this hellsite that you try to support your artist and content creators, reblog as much as possible, look to find them on websites off this piece of shit, and generally do your best to spread the word and support them, since tumblr itself is trying to silence them! 

forth and probably my last entry for Minxs Cintiq Contest. (I started it second though) this time for Uno. hand drew the Uno logo as well this time rather than vectoring the Uno logo in this time. not much else to say about this one besides I wanted to draw it the most?

Third entry for Minxs Cintiq contest. this time Throne of Lies, I tried looking into the game the best I could and I got this sorta feel from it, I couldn’t find out more but cant wait to see it. I really enjoyed making this one the most out of all the ones I managed to finish. ouo

second contest entry for Minxs current Cintiq contest. Virtues Last Reward, Minx/Sigma and I tried to put the rest of them in, something to like about each character to some extent which I find rare for me. I found myself to really enjoy the Zero Escape games. —- Once I am able to get on a computer I will edit this with the finished version (I uploaded the one I saved right before I finished, minor details but still glaring to me)

PLEASE HELP ME, Im about to be homeless within a few days.

We were not able to pay rent as well as struggling with food,utilities, etc.

Not only that the landlord wants to take us to court.

I have been trying to hard to get work, commissions, etc. With no luck, now that time has come and I am going to lose everything.

We were already struggling with saving money for a place to live because our lease was up at the end of this month.

We had to not pay rent to pay car insurance, save for next place and food.

It is horrible we are gonna lose our cats too and I dont want them killed.

I am doing commissions, taking donations (my email is krystami.neochondria@gmail.com) i will do ANYTHING commissions wise I just need money so badly..i dont care the amount really as long as I can get money fast i would do invoice but invoices stay in limbo until I can afford to pay off debt to get an official bank or credit card. So payment would have to be gifted.

I dont know what to do anymore please help me. Sculpture eise they are all for sale but you have to give me the shipping to pay (it is better just all then one) The only ones I have left are the lapis plaque, amethyst, pearl and garnet, I have others in progress and am willing to do commissions for sculpts too

What type of art do people want to see? (I guess from me) (Edit: this was not meant to be a rambling vent post but turned into one.) I just dont know how to get out there on any website. I feel like a ghost who talks to everyone but nobody hears or sees me. I want to just give up, give up on everything not just art anymore. Or maybe I have that backwards, I always wanted to give up on everything but art. I see no point, it is my only skill and positive trait yet it isnt good enough. I am literally a starving artist. I cant get work. I cant do anything. This isnt a tumblr thing, there is obviously something wrong with me if I have been trying for over a decade and still havent gotten anywhere. I swear i spend more time and have more time that 97%of people. But i waste it all on art that gets me nowhere, not financially or socially. And no art doesnt help me for me, not anymore,my goal since a child was to become a paid artist. Imagine a kid who spent their whole life, extracurricular activities, anything possible in anyway their whole life trying to become a doctor, cook, athlete...and just it getting ripped from under them. I fake reality you thought would come true but you dont qualify and instead of being on the team or something you end up being an unpaid volunteer as a waterboy or something like that, or expected to cater for free, for "exposure" it feels like shit and it is. I already given up, im just a zombie with no purpose who just goes off of what feels most natural and intuitive.

Still trying to get commissions...details through here but ill repost if need be. Just message me if you have questions. https://m.facebook.com/groups/769385609752270?view=permalink&id=1607275062629983

Titlecard submission for Minxs current Cintiq art contest. I wish I could have put more time into it but the game is pretty much ended and my phone and net is being turned off in 15 minutes haha. Still satisfying, I found myself to really love this game and series. I hope to put a better description when I can.

I haven’t done this in a few years but I finally have a sort of price list together, I’m just doing bust-shots for now, but If you are looking for anything else, please ask, I don’t mind discussing it. c:

(this is just where you get the digital files, no physical copy.)

I will draw: people, armor, robo/mechs, anthro, creatures. Payment required before I start, through paypal, (I send invoice first) any questions, just ask.

I won’t draw: ask for now.

I desperately need money, I can’t afford food (I have celiac disease), barely bills and rent as well as financial abuse from our roommate(my dad), I cannot work, I also cannot get ssi and such so stuck in an awkward place. My husband and I are forced to move in a month and a half but have no money saved and am going to lose most of my things and my cats, my husband is so stressed because of my dad and my lack of work that he is threatening to break the lease because we have no food or money for food, he doesn’t get paid until next thursday, I am unable to leave the house by myself without having severe breakdowns and he always gets off too late to do anything else himself. (I am literally stuck in this situation with no other options I’M capable of doing. But I have always planned on selling my art, I just need to do what I can right now) I’ll make a better price list eventually that is more than jist bustshots, I just want to be able to do as much as I can in a timely matter for both sides while testing the waters after all these years If that makes sense.

Thank you so much if you read this.

(Posting so much later then intended)

Birthday gift for my mom tomorrow. Rarely draw traditionally but it is nice to do once in awhile.

Tumblr glitched and somehow posted one photoset four times on mobile and kept saying it was having trouble? Weird but I deleted the other ones.

Messy work in progress, sudden inspiration came from nowhere. I have no clue where I'm going with this exactly but I haven't done something like this in awhile and need a more relaxed piece to work on. :D Cry and at least five sup guys hopefully. If I had to say anything, sitting on a cliff while the sun rises in some sorta place, looking over something possibly, like a town or idk.

I have been forgetting to upload this but here it is finally. This took a few months but it is complete c: Creating a lot of bubbled gems is physically painful and mentally exhausting I found out. I added some close ups as well. I needed to draw her, and my first time drawing Blue Pearl as well. (I love blue/pink/purple color schemes so much.)

Here are wips of a few things I’m working on, forgot to post.

Titlecard for Minx, Minx as Mae. :D Night in the Woods is such a great game, haven't felt so relatable to a character or game in general since probably The Cat Lady. The art is so nice in the game as well, down to the the smallest details, animations, music and the writing.

Finally got around to posting :D

Anyways here is some shots I saved of my work process, I plan on posting one for each picture I made.

This one in particular was quite fun and relaxing to create. I put the “Minx” backwards though (forgot I was working flipped.)

I plan on maybe uploading a higher resolution version on DA and stuff.

I also took a wonky phone video of me drawing, I might or might not post.

Last submission I made. Is there a no logo thing? I didn't have the slightest idea until I initially submitted, I didn't see it in the initial rules of the contest (I read over it multiple times and am scared I overlooked it.) and I was posting extremely last minute to where I started panicking because Tumblr was erroring like crazy I was worrying I wasn't going to make it.

(My reasons for being so late is because I have literally used every minute I could to work on these and I was putting as much as I could into all of these submissions.) I thought it would be odd if the titlecards had nothing pointing out which game they were supposed to be from. I seen earlier submissions with them so I thought nothing of it either.

I have never submitted anything on Tumblr ever, I actually had to find out where it was.

I hope this is okay, I vectored the "uno" and "cards against humanity" I honestly couldn't hand draw those in time either (I did want to but time was getting low.)

I really apologize if anything possibly breaks the rules for the contest or rules in general.

Submission 4, last entry I finished.

This is for Uno maybe took fiveish hours?

I kept thinking of this sorta scene while watching Minx play Uno, I love how vibrant that game is.

I am highly interested in the paid position as well, 24 years old, US.

(I just realized, I’m not sure if I forgot to tag my last submission.)

This was super fun to work on didnt stress me out haha, backgrounds are the most relaxing things to work on.

Submission 1 (I tried posting this multiple times but had an uploading error, I was trying for a few hours. I didn’t want to take any chances, so I apologize if this went through more than this post.)

Anyways, this is for Friday the 13th the game. c:

I thought it was funny one of the characters had a similar coloring style to Minx, so I put her in that outfit (I didn’t really think through the pose with the skirt.)

This took around 30? hours, I didn’t keep track but I have been working on this nonstop since I found out about the contest.

I am highly interested in the paid position, am 24, live in the US.

I am a fulltime freelance artist but haven’t had much luck in general.

This one took the longest out of all of them to make, because of those cards for one, rendering so many rectangles really hurts the hands I gotta say....

I also will most likely post like process pics of these since I've learned to start doing that recently...after years..8'D (due to computer issues taking away hours of work to full images or just bad luck in general haha)

Submission 3 (I was barely able to upload due to tumblr errors, was stressing horribly. and am not sure if those errored submissions went through)

For Cards Against Humanity, this took around 30? hours, lost track but have been working on since I found out about the contest.

Cards annoy me now haha, it killed my hand. Still not as rendered as I wanted but I’m content.

Whenever I see these card games I always think of it in like some floaty dimension. :D

Also “Cards Against Humanity” sounds like the ability to destroy humanity with weaponized magic cards so that kept popping in my head.

I am highly interested in the paid position, 24 years old, US, Colorado, freelance artist.

Submission 2 (I really, really hope these post, I have been trying for a few hours with no luck, unless Tumblr just shows errors when it sends? If so I’m really sorry for the submission spam. )

Last minute for all of these posting wise.

An transparent angry Minx, not much else to say about it, maybe took 5ish hours, I didnt really keep track.

I am highly interested in the paid position, am 24, US.

Whoops....okay, sleep deprivation isn't the best time to work on things. I accidentally submitted a picture with text backwards 8D I have a habit of working on things flipped and forgot I was working on it flipped when I drew some text....haha.... But then again I have a few shirts that have backwards text so I can read it when I look in the mirror 8'D (Trying to justify mistakes.) I also forgot to put my signature, but er. ....idk. Just a reminder that sleep deprivation does cause mistakes even without machinery haha...

I just realized I never posted this, I drew this awhile back but for some reason never posted it really anywhere.

I just post my art besides occasional reblogs like this, I don’t post super often, I work on art constantly but it just takes me ages to do.

I draw and sculpt, I can’t really say what my art is theme, style, genre, etc. wise, I’ve never really had anyone tell me.

REBLOG IF YOU’RE AN ART BLOG & ILL CHECK YOU OUT

( YOUR OWN ART, SPECIFICALLY )

So, I’ve made a post like this in the past but I forgot to be more specific.

What I’m not looking for is a blog full with random posts and your art occasionally popping up, or with a tag only. I’m looking for blogs that’s dedicated to your art only, because I want to support more artists out there, especially here on tumblr.

This was for a group on FB called the “Monthly Creativity Challenge!” I love designing creatures and stuff outside of people, I just never do, so this was a nice a change.

It is hard to explain exactly what I was thinking when making this.

A menacing yet possibly gentle creature(could still destroy you in an instant) i kept thinking of many things in my head that kept going to other ideas, one being a spider I used to feed ants as a child.

It likes to be in deeper waters and can stay underwater indefinitely, but it’s species adapted to hosting creatures that have also adapted to living/traveling inside part of it’s body that actually need oxygen. (I don't know how long this took to make, a few hours?)
