As vital as my blood.

Feel free to poke and prod at me and my OC's and
I'll do my best to respond to you in a timely manner.
--------------------------------------
Out of my love of Furry, I am a fan of Star Trek, Hetalia, Supernatural, Sherlock, Avengers, Teen Wolf, Doctor Who, Homestuck, Merlin, Torchwood, Sentinel, Avatar, LotR, and a few others I can't recall. My art style is usually stuck somewhere between realism and anime or just completely off the chart cartoon. I'm mostly here to learn and to be criticized, but I'm not against a friend or two if they can stand all my crazy (that's actually not a joke).
I prefer Art Trades or Commissions. If I'm feeling like it, I'll do a request, but don't get your hopes up. If you would like to visit and/or follow my tumblr blog, then the link is right below.
It was nice of you to come by and read this and I hope you have enjoyed your stay~β₯

No problem! Your artwork is amazing and it really gave me a better understanding on how depth and angle work in art c:

Dear Recipient,
It has come to my attention that you have been viciously trying to murder my favorite button. The assassination failed and the button survived for others to use it still.
Thank you for trying anyway, the annoying little button had it coming! And you have faved some of my photos by doing so! That's even more awesome! Proceed to trying to smash my +Watch button to pieces if you want to receive more Fursuit/Animal photography! I try to upload regularly!
Thank you again for being all awesome and amazing and faving my stuff and such!Β
Sincerely,
-Reinout

Hey there Maple, long time no see huh? X3 I haven't been around on Da in forever, you probably don't even remember me XD I see you're doing more Furry art, it's looking really good, seems you've been doing a lot of music inspired art as well, pretty awesome ^w^ So how have you been in general as of late? Anything fun been happening? :3 Β

Hey there, I still remember you. And yeah, I've more or less switched to furries for the time being, haha. I've been good, living semi on my own now with a roommate and working a retail job that I enjoy. Other than that, not much is all that new. I've been getting into the cosplay thing and playing a lot of Furcadia and Dragon Age, when I'm not asleep. How have you been?

Khorogh In reply to Maple-Blood [2015-01-07 09:19:27 +0000 UTC]
Yaay, hehe been gone so long I doubted anyone around still remembered me You're doing very lovely art with it, is there any special reason why you've switched more from Pony related stuff to furry? Do you find the latter more interesting to draw or are you simply a bit spent with ponies?Β
Sounds neat, is your roommate nice? Still living at home and doing my studies myself, this is my last semester and then it'll be off to work (well, hopefully at least haha) and more hopefully I can get my own place soon after. There hasn't been all that much going on in my life either, I was spending 6 weeks at an internship prior to Christmas, part of my studies and I'll be doing it again but for 9 weeks now in spring, getting some good work practice.u
So what have you been cosplaying? It sure seems fun, but I've never been to any form of convention or such myself, have you? Never heard of Furcadia, what's that? And with Dragon Age you mean the new one, Inquisition? I just started that myself the other day, seems very promising~Β

I'm pretty good at remembering who I talk to, haha. Well, at least if they're interesting. And, I made the switch from pony to furre because I was never actually a fan of My Little Pony. I was a fan of the MLP fandom and a lot of my friends were in it, plus I've always loved horses. When my friends eventually left the fandom, I wandered off into my love of furre, and since I had more of a passion for it, I switched the whole account to it, basically. I still will draw the odd pony, but it won't be something I frequent anymore. I'll probably anthro-ize all my old OC's eventually. I already have a sketch for Entwine~
My roommate is wonderful~ We disagree on a lot, but we've been best friends since highschool, so I'm just ecstatic about living with her now. How are your studies going? I've always been bad at academics, so if I can get a job, you shouldn't have a problem either, and having a place of my own is daunting a lot of the time, but I really like it. I imagine you'll probably enjoy it too. What are you interning?
The last cosplay I did was from Homestuck, and I intend to do Poison Ivy, Ymir from AOT, and a few others in the coming years. I've been to a few conventions, I love them. A lot of people say they're full of drama, but I haven't come across any in the last three years I've been to one. Furcadia is an online interactive chat, kind of like a really two-bit version of WoW and the like. You're basically a furre and you go around roleplaying or chatting with other people. [here's a link to the site] and, I haven't played anything but Origins when it comes to Dragon Age. I have Awakening installed in my PC, but I love the first one so much, I just keep playing it.

Yay I'm interesting~ Hahaha Β
I see, I'm quite the same when it comes to the fandom, I had seen a lot of it through random sites and decided one day to just go ahead and actually look up some episodes, I came across a few steaming sites that were kinda ok, but one called "The Brony Network" got me hooked, the community was really great and a few of them are now my best friends. That's when I started with the pixel ponies just as a thing of my own, since a few did other things, like art, pony music videos and what not, so wanted something fun to try too. I really did love the episodes, but when the community on the BN site started to kinda split up and brought in a lot of new people my interest for the pony things waned, I didn't even watch the latest season until they had all aired, and me and a friend streamed all the episodes in one day instead, still great fun but I just couldn't quite bring myself to catch it every Saturday just because. I've too been more interested in furry when it comes to character designs, got a character of my own too, a Ram which I quite enjoy. (Well I don't have anything drawn of him but the idea is there heh).Β Which character was Entwine? I really liked the cougar you made, Erable, she's very pretty~Β
Ahhh cool, it's nice you can live together with such a close friend, and yeah I'm sure disagreements are bound to occur but I guess that's just part of sharing with another person X3 My studies have actually been going really well, it's great to know I'm finally about to end my studies, I've been very back and forth between different things for a while now, not sure what to do and I kinda just did different courses to try out things and just get by you know? But this feels exactly what I want to work with, so I feel this study will set me on a good path from here on. I'm studying to become an Electrical Project Engineer (Yeah ain't that a mouthful hah) basically I'm working in a program called CAD (dunno if you've heard of it) and I draw the electrcal plans for a building, were sockets, light switches, lights, fire alarms and all that kind of stuff goes and what to pick etc, it's very fun, and that's what I interned on, worked at a company called Sweco, they're a very big company all over the world, so that was neat for a first try, oping to be there again now for my third and last internship in a few months, but not sure if they got room for me again...
I am really looking forward to live on my own, technically I have been doing it a little bit, my mother (whom I live with) live in a very small city...or "village" I'd almost call it but my father had a place in a bigger city and he's rarely ever home there so I stayed there for the weeks when I was doing the internship, basically 6 weeks straight, plus I've been there from time to time on longer periods so I'm Β quite well used to managing on my own, but still, quite the big difference to actually own a place of my own, managing bills and all that Β
Ooh so you're a Homestuck fan too huh? Awesome~ So have you been excited that the comic is finally updating again? I can't wait to see the end resolution of what's gonna happen! I kinda jumped on it at a bad time, a few friends had often told me about it, and I decided to just sit down and read it at one point so I just blasted through all the chapters in a few days, but that was kinda right before he went on his long break, so now I had to wait for the updates, just my luck Β
I'd love to visit a convention at some time, I know there are a few close to where I live but I don't have a drivers license just yet (hopefully getting one this summer if all goes to plan) so it's been a bit iffy getting out to them, so I'll just try them out once I get a car~ And the link didn't work but I checked it out, it seems pretty neat, I think I'll sign up and give it a whirl some day this week, try it out ^w^Β
Origins was really cool, you should definitely give Inquisition a go too, I'm still really, really early on in the game so I shouldn't say too much if it's good or not, but I'm enjoying it and most of all the combat, characters and general feel of it seems great~ What kind of characters do you usually go for in Origins? A Human Shield/One hand warrior was usually my to go guy and the one I finished my first round with.Β
Also sorry for an extremely long post, just kinda fun chatting haha X3

I usually go for an Elf, a female Dalish Rouge or a male Mage are my two favorite choices. But sometimes I also like the noble story too. Rouge or Mage is my preference, however. I do intend to go through all the games, I'm just really slow about playing them, I take my time, so it can take me months or even a year to get through any RPG. Furcadia is awesome. I really enjoy it. I started playing back when I was nine and have gone back to it on and off in the years since.
And, yeah, I'm into Homestuck~ I've only just made it past Cascade, however. Like I said, I tend to take things slow. Thus, I'm not too phased about the comic updating again. I know it'll take me a long time to finish it, so it'll probably be done before I am. I'm more looking forward to this game that's being made for it, or, at least I hear a game is being made. Which is ironic, and I'm pretty sure Hussie's doing it on purpose, haha. Also, you could probably bus to conventions too, or go with friends who are heading to it as well. I'm never getting a car (if I can help it) and I intend to go to some of the cons in the U.S., so that's the only real option for me, and it doesn't sound like a bad one.
I actually know someone who had a very similar job to the one you're describing. She worked for BC Hydro, one of the largest if not the actual largest power companies in Canada, I believe. It wasn't the job she intended to get, her schooling was for something different, but she had that job for a while before she moved into the field she'd actually wanted. It sounds like a rather difficult field, at least to me. It's good that your studies are going so well.
I've lived a lot 'on my own' as well, being the only one there. So I'm pretty self-sufficient as well, but actually having a place of your own is quite different. I mostly find the amount of responsibility being put on me is what's really overwhelming. Mainly because my roommate has no idea how to live without her family. That being said, I'm doing a really good job so far at holding everything together, and I credit that to all the years I did spend on my own. So, you should have a pretty good head start as well.
As for your Ram, you should totally draw them! I'd be interested to see. And, yeah, Erable is pretty cool. I quite enjoy her. My favourite is probably Soti, though. My dragon. I'm also having a lot of fun with my new Jackalope as well.

I'm usually the reverse, once I really get into an rpg I tend to stick with it until I fully complete it in one go, if I wait too long between playing I get kinda lost in the story or such and more often than not just restart it entirely It's one reason why I haven't played the Mass Effect 3 campaign yet even though I own the game, kinda waiting for a moment were I can play it through completely. Inquisition is the first rpg I play in a while, but that was mostly just to try it and I really enjoyed it, so gonna stick to that for a bit. My friend is playing a Rogue too, they're pretty fun~ What kind of specialization did you go, like daggers or bows etc?
Furcadia seems interesting, maybe we could play sometime and you could show me how it works and all that? ^w^
Oh wow, Cascade, yeah you've got quite a bit left to go hehe~ Man I loved the music they played during that cutscene, probably my all time favorite music from Homestuck, it was so good! Remember playing it several times over and over. I'm also quite interested in the game, though I haven't seen too much just what it's about really, but anything Homestuck related I'm sure is bound to be very interesting at the least. I'm the same when it comes to webcomics as I'm with games, once I find one I like I kinda just burn through it rather quickly, it's always so sad when you reach the end of a really good comic or manga T^TΒ
Well it's really damn expensive to use the commute here, and the cons are generally really far away so it's quite costly, I could probably save up for it over time sure but, it's another issue that I don't really have any local friends who'd be interested in cons, so going there alone seems a bit boring...I've got more friends in the US that'd be into such stuff, so my hopes are to one day soon go to visit them, and hopefully take a trip around in USA to different places after I've gotten my drivers license, a roadtrip basically.Β
Cool, sounds like she landed a good job then? I'm so hoping I find one soon after I quit my studies, otherwise I'm gonna have to get some other means of making money :/Β
Hehe, nice you're managing to keep it together~ I have a friend who lives with a lot of other people in the same house, and a lot of them are quite the slobs, he hates that but he don't have the funds to get his own place. (Or I suppose he'd rather take the sloppy roommates over having no spending money after rents etc). Even now during my times with living at home I've basically always been the one taking care of a lot of things, grocery shopping, errands, cleaning, washing, dishes and the whole bang, all I really need to learn better is how to cook, I can do it but the results are kinda...un-presentable hahaha Β
I'd love to, aside the fact I can't draw worth squat >.<" Like seriously, I draw like a 5 year old, hell that'd be insulting to the 5 year old haha. I did have a person I chatted with a while ago offering to do it for me, but then that person just kinda...vanished, so eh, I'll probably commission one sometime when I can. Soti looks certainly very cool though I admit I actually thought it was of an equine race, given the hoofed feet. A Jackalope is certainly not one I've seen often, it's the one named Kanni right? What gender is it supposed to be? Seeing as it has both male and female parts. Β
