Hi y'all, quick PSA that I've changed my user and display name from SpringRain to Austra! Haven't changed my pfp cause it's still on theme (Austra is an oc of mine that I'm turning into a persona), just wanted to give people a heads up regardless!

An image of a huge jackboot crushing a comic artist and a bunch of comic pages. The boot is marked by the logos for MasterCard, Visa, Paypal, and Stripe. Below the image there is text which reads: Don't let Payment Processors tell YOU what you can buy! It is not a payment processor's role to decide what kind of content you can or cannot spend money on, so long as it is a legal transaction. Fight back against the unjust policies hurting artists and creators online! https://yellat.money/ https://stop-paypros.neocities.org/

If you like an author's work, the best thing you can do is buy it. The second best thing you can do is ask your local library to buy it. Or, do both!

A reminder that the median book deal for a debut author in the UK is £7000, paid over 12-18 months. (from 2022 Society of Authors report). Some of your favourite writers are struggling. societyofauthors.org/2022/12/06/a....

My Celes gouache painting from a few weeks back! It was difficult but still worth the attempt 🗡️
Celes Chere gouache that didn’t go as I’d hoped but completing it is better than nothing!

(Comm art) Finale
#myartiguess
A human version of Rarity in the panty and stocking art style, she is dark skinned and plus sized with a cute frilly pink, purple, and blue dress with white stocking and blue heels. She has on makeup with blue eyeliner, eyeshadow, and lipstick. Her hair is curled and pulled up in a ponytail with a big diamond hairtie. On her fingers you can see vitiligo spots, hinting that it may be covered by her makeup on her face. A human version of Apple Jack in the panty and stocking art style, she has light brown skin and her hair is set in 2 braids. She has her iconic hat and wears a light green button up with apple buttons. Her jeans are bell bottoms that are bleached at the bottoms and covering her boots. The sides of her jeans have tassels and her belt has a half gold apple as the buckle. She's wearing brown gloves and is covered in freckles.

Just wanted to clarify: the jam happily accepts pansexual and bisexual characters! The "het" in the name simply refers to couples that include a woman and man. 👌 Would love to see your bi cuties kissing each other for this!

I hope everyone can remember your art is more than the numbers it gets. The internet is not as kind to art as it was a decade ago. I hope everyone can keep creating even if it's just for themselves.

The only truly irreversible thing a trans child is likely to do is take their own life. "What if they do something irreversible?" actually means "theyre not allowed to make a decision!"

You cant undo or reverse any decision you make, you can simply change your mind later and handle the consequences

Been thinking about some new Mephisto outfits for pinups and whatnot for a while and finally slapped some stuff together. I think I'm partial to the lingerie one with the little chain accessory but he looks reeeally cute in the dress...
Which one do you like more hmmmm?
#oc #ocsky #envtuber
a rough sketch of mephisto showcasing an outfit. the top has a neckline that plunges down almost to his belly button and is very wide. attached to the top is a broach with 4 small decorative chains attached to it that loop around to the back. the bottom piece of the broach holds sheer black cloth that has flowered embroidery on it. it's quite long, reaching the floor and dragging a little behind him. He's also wearing a black g string type panty, and thigh high stockings that have black embroidered roses on the trim at the top. He's wearing his typical stiletto type heels, but this time a much smaller shoe closer to a pump type heel. On his wrists and ankles are simple bands (cuffs) that have D rings implying the ability to link things to them. On his upper arms are leather bands that have 3 small decorative chains attached to the back side of the accessory that connects them to an o ring stemming from his choker. This shows the exact same outfit but zoomed in a bit closer, viewing it from the back to show the accessory, drapery from the back, and the way his underwear sits in the back. Another sketch of Mephisto, this time standing with his legs close together and hands at his sides with a back and front view to show the outfit. It is a black shiny matte mermaid tail dress. The frilled ends reach just past his ankles. Black heels as always, the top of the dress has a sheer black area that covers most of the chest and extends to the neck. Attached to it is flowered embroidery and shapes that form around his chest and reaches to his shoulders a bit. Draped on his upper arms the dress has more sheer fabric attached to it. His hands have chained accessories that loop around his middle fingers and criss/cross over the back of his hands. The dress is closed in the back with zig-zag lacing that exposes a lot of his back. just below it, ther is a blue dot for where his tail would sit, and a heart-shaped ass window that also showcases part of his panties. his nips are also exposed ig. if you even care.

I follow a lot of writers and artists and some of them promote their work over and over in my feed.

It doesn't bother me one bit. No annoyance. No bad feelings towards them.

I do, however, notice. And I remember. And I recommend.

Do it. Do it a lot.

If you're an author being published by small and tiny presses, please shamelessly promote your work, however much your temperament might militate against it. I've seen many wonderful authors at this level so quickly forgotten when they die, you deserve all the readers you can get while you're alive.
