It's here!
Everything is so great!
So hyped~~~

@Purpsy: I'd never heard of offlinetv before, but after a quick google search I discovered that's who I've been seeing a lot of. Lol.
I watch a lot of Markiplier, Jacksepticeye, Game Grumps and their friends and affiliates.

@Totalanimefan: Same. I was anticipating it starting on the 28th or 29th. I just want more Halloween items so badly. D;
That and the new order is 12 things and it's so much and I'm still finishing up the last order... I'm worried I won't have enough time for an event.
It is a little stressful, but I love all of them and I just want them to be happy.

@MoodyBats: You right.
Hobbies that are cheap even end up costing an arm and a leg in the long run.
Are you getting a lot of commissions?

@Purpsy: Aw man, yas~
I just want to watch all the peeps playing among us, but I'm so far behind on Unus Annus and there are only 14 days left.

Sorry for the late responses. This week has been hectic with the weather and our dryer breaking and getting a huge order and finally setting up my etsy shop. :vanora_cry:


@Totalanimefan: I'll probably do that this next week. :]
I keep hoping that a halloween event will start, but I'm beginning to give up hope.
Eh... I don't really have anyone to vent to, so I'm trying to figure out how to deal with everything.
Like, I've always been the person that people feel comfortable talking to, so I keep getting to hear everyone's thoughts and trying to help them deal with it all, and I know that it's weighing them down so I don't want to make things worse by talking about how it's all affecting me, as well. =/

@MoodyBats: 100% me with crocheting, right now. Lol.
Back before I learned how to crochet all I had was the internet and drawing. Now I crochet a lot and barely draw.
It definitely takes it's toll on your skill level. :vanora_sweat:

@xvz: Dude, right? Like, I never really thought about it before I learned, but when I saw something crocheted or knitted I just assumed that it was too difficult and I could never make something so neat.
I've been crocheting for about seven years now and I can only read written patterns. Charts are just so scary that my brain refuses to figure it out. D;
I don't have pictures of any of them, beyond what is on the first page of the thread. But I'll be taking pictures sometime next week, after I finish everything for the pokemon order.

@PhotogenicPhish: Same. Just, everything. Same. Lol.

@MoodyBats: That's fair.
I got a book of prompts to help me draw more. I did like three and then forgot about it. D;
It's so easy to fall out of the practice of drawing when I get obsessed with a different hobby.

@Totalanimefan: Oh. That's neat. How much is it??
There's been a lot of drama with my boyfriend's family, so I was spending a lot of time talking to his younger sister and helping her understand everything and making sure she doesn't take anything the wrong way and understands that we've taken her and her brother in because we love them and want the best for them.

@xvz: You're perfectly fine.
I hope you enjoy your crochet adventures! It's so much fun to discover new things to make~~~
I both use other people's patterns and come up with things on my own.
The person that's been ordering most of the items sends me pictures of what they want and then I've found the exact pattern.
However, the hats that they ordered were made by someone who didn't share or sell the pattern. So I used the base hat pattern that I came up with when I first got into making hats, then found different patterns online for plushies and used them to make parts that matched the pictures that they had sent me.

@Count Trashula: It feels like a vicious cycle, at some point. Lol.
I've now been checking constantly to see if there's been a post about a Halloween event. D;

@Lilypoo: FEEEEELS
All those happy brain chemicals.

@MoodyBats: That's actually really smart.
I always let myself down by missing a day or two, then shaming myself for it to the point that I just don't continue.
So doing something more chilled and laid back sounds brilliant.

@MoodyBats: I've never heard of pinktober before.
What prompts did you use?
:o

@MoodyBats: That's fair.
Ah. So are you doing inktober this year?
I've heard there's a lot of drama around it, rn. :c

@Totalanimefan: That's true. I really need to get into it again.
I've been paying for the Nintendo subscription so I can visit my friends, and I haven't touched the switch since July. D;

@Vozzy: I'm currently having a similar problem, whenever I do a puzzle.
I've cleared cache and tried different puzzles, but I always get the same pop up, telling me "You've already earned 0 Confetti today!"
And when I leave the page my Voltz total hasn't changed.

@Totalanimefan: Right. I'm still in shock. Lol.
I just love cuddly kitties. They make me so happy.
Not much, really. Hopefully going to finish most of the projects I'm currently working on.
Hbu??

@MoodyBats: That's fair.
Can't say I know anything about the genre, but as long as you enjoy it that's what matters. :]
That's fair.
Are you in school for art or do subscription boxes?

@Totalanimefan: Thank you~
The commissions I'm working on are going to be earning me around $410
They are the best little family. The fight quite a bit, but they're almost always cuddling with each other. It's precious.
Awwwww, that's so precious. Cobalt is such a lucky baby to have been rescued by someone that cares so much. <3

@MoodyBats: What sort of music to you like to listen to when you draw?
And that's fair.
What's got you so upset with arting, rn?

@Totalanimefan: I learned how to crochet back in like 2012 or 2013 by watching youtube videos.
Though back then I struggled to make a lot of things. Over the years I've just practiced and learned more stitches. That and my slight obsession with making sure things look correct, I'm making these things for someone who already knows how to crochet.
I love my babies so much. Opal and Sugilite are actually Sapphire and Pearl's parents. Sapphire was their first born and Pearl was their last born. Wish I could have kept all five of their kittens, though. D;
I wish we could just get them to stop getting older. Sugi is the oldest at five, and I know it's not old. But eventually she will be old, and I can't handle that knowledge. ;c
Cobalt sounds so adorable and sweet~ He deserves all the snuggles.

@MoodyBats: I mean, that's fair. Whatever you enjoy doing is always worth your time. :]
Do you listen to music or anything while you draw?
I find that drawing without any auditory stimulation makes me not want to continue for long.

@MoodyBats: Like your own personal experience in art, or studying artists?

@Totalanimefan: Thank you. >w<
That one was really good. I had to figure out how to make it with little help.
The first cat there isn't actually mine, anymore. She was my old roommates and now she lives with her ex, which is who has been ordering most of these items.
The second cat is my Opal. I also have a Tortioushell named Sugilite, an orange tabby named Sapphire, and a tuxedo named Pearl. <3
Cobalt is such a cute name. :]

A lot of these are from when they were works in process.
And the Baby Yoda got bigger eyes after I took that pic.
But these are the most recent ones I've finished.
