Happy Holidays, everyone! It's the most wonderful (and busiest) time of the year, so I thought it would be worthwhile to let you all in on my current status, potential plans, and some huge 'life-changing' events coming soon.

First, the big future news - I got an offer to continue working for Disney part-time as part of their custodial staff, starting in late January!

I'm super excited to continue working for the big cheese, having loved my previous time here with the college program, but one big downside that as it's only part-time, the foreseeable future is going to be very tight financially. There's two possibilities for the future:

- I may have to get a second part-time job to supplement my income, which will likely mean that I won't have much time to devote to furry art or commissions.

- Alternatively, I may experiment with using art commissions as a supplemental job in and of itself, which would mean expect a lot more commission openings or ychs available.

I'm not yet sure which route I plan on taking yet, but I'll update here again once I have it all figured out.

In the meantime, my Christmas season is a busy one!

In preparation for the new offer, I'm out and about looking for a car, a second job, and a place to rent in the Orlando area. Between that, the hectic holiday season in the parks, and a few secretive other art projects I have planned, there hasn't been much time for furry arting. I have a few ychs I've been hoping to release for the Christmas season to help soften the blow of my very large list of upcoming expenses, but they're behind schedule and with how busy I am I'm not sure if I'll be able to finish them in time for Christmas. Do be on the lookout for potential rubber reindeer recruitment, though ;3

Sorry for my lack of activity everywhere so far, but thank you all so much for sticking around and enjoying my work and happy holidays! I'll post another update once I get a better Idea of what on earth I'll be doing. Feel free to ask if you have any questions!

Howdy howdy, y'all!

So it's a new year, and a lot of new things are happening over here, the biggest one being: I'll be joining the Disney college internship program! For the next several months, I'll be living, learning, and working in Florida at the Disney parks themselves as a proper Disney drone!

This is an amazing opportunity and something I really want to make the most of - so I have to say I'll be going mostly inactive here and online for most of the program, as I'm not sure if I'll have the time to juggle both my furry art and the internship itself.

I don't think I'll be completely gone as I still have projects to upload, and Disney can get very expensive very fast so I may open up for the occasional commission/ych - but I'd like to put the majority of my focus on the program itself, at least until I'm confident enough to manage both.

Y'all have been absolutely amazing to me so far, and I'm so happy to have you all here! Feel free to ask me anything if you have any questions. Thank you all so much for everything!

Howdy, y'all! Due to the rather controversial situation happening with furaffinity right now, I'd like to make an update highlighting my plans going forwards. While I don't plan on leaving furaffinity behind, at least not yet, I will be putting more effort into updating, maintaining, and being more active in some of my accounts on other platforms for those who'd prefer to interact there.

If you're looking to leave, here's the other places where you can connect with me and my work:

Howdy, y’all!

It’ll be graduation time from college in the next few weeks, a both nerve-wracking and exciting time. Since preparing for graduation and finishing my final exams is my biggest priority at the moment, it’s why I haven’t been super active at creating art stuff as of late. Hopefully once school is over I’ll be able to ramp up production again (especially since I’ll be needing the money), but until then don’t expect a lot of activity.

I really appreciate y’all!

Howdy, y’all!

Sorry for the lack of posts so far!
things are heating up here in school, it’s getting to be crunch time for job applying and some big assignments are coming up. So, I’ll most likely be largely inactive for around a week more, as I put my focus onto school and real life. Thank y’all so much for understanding and being patient with me!

Howdy, y'all!

So this year looks to be a wild one - it'll be my last semester in college before graduation! Since I'm majoring in graphic design, that means I'll be producing a lot of art - unfortunately, most of it would be works not exactly suited to post here, and conversely furry art isn't exactly something you'd want to share on a "mainstream" portfolio.

So that means I'll most likely be slowing down furry art by a lot for the next few months, as my priority will be creating the best portfolio I can and seeking a proper design job.

With that said, I don't plan to shutter up my furry content entirely, as commissions are really helpful as much-needed extra income - and I need an outlet for my kinky rubber fetish desires somewhere!

I also have a backlog of art that does need to be uploaded, so hopefully that'll provide some semblance of activity for at least a little while.

So while I'll try to be active and make stuff and take commissions when I can, school and sfw, family-friendly art comes first.

If you'd like to keep more up-to-date with me and my sfw content, follow me on my sfw account here, I would really appreciate it! https://twitter.com/NoahHar39065271

I'll also post most of my sfw content in my server, which you could join here: https://discord.gg/9NcK6wyh3M

Thank you all so much for being patient with me and enjoying the art I make! Y'all are the absolute best, and here's to a new and better year ~

Howdy, Y'all!

I have a quick question for everyone: Would y'all want me to post my non-furry graphic design, ux design, and school art on here, or would y'all rather keep it to furry content, and post it on a separate account?

I'm debating on whether or not I should upload my non-furry work on here, and I'd love to hear y'all's thoughts!

Howdy, everyone! It's finally time to give an update one what I've been doing so far, what I have planned ahead, and my plan for the massive, unfinished how parks ych I decided to undertake.

Starting with the latter first, with much sorrow I'll be officially canceling the rest of the ych slots.

I deeply, deeply apologize to anyone who reserved a slot, but for me the writing is on the wall: given how long it took for me to work on just the first few sheets, there's no chance I'll be able to complete them within a reasonable timeframe - especially given that it's already been a year. I completely overestimated my ability when I first created them, and made far more promises than I could reasonably keep. It's my fault, and I'm sorry.

If you've paid me beforehand for a slot, let me know via discord so we can arrange a refund!

Once the school year resumes, I plan on putting most of my focus onto my graphic design and non-furry creative work, building a portfolio and trying to land an internship. Thus, I'll be greatly limiting my furry art output, though I'm still debating as to the precise extent.

Until then, though, I'd like to focus on commissions and tf art for what remains of the summer! I'm also considering remaining open for more generic commissions, one that could be used to boost a portfolio.

Thank you all for being patient and so supportive of what I create!

Howdy, y’all! This is a short update, but I’ll be on a family trip to the beach this week, so I won’t be very active during this time. Thanks for understanding!

Howdy, y'all!

So things have been pretty busy over here. Art is scarce because I'm putting in most of my free time focus on trying to score an internship, as well as working on my resume and academic goals. There's some art progress, but it's been a bit slow. I apologize for not being very active on here, though I still engage with my discord server if you want to hop on in! https://discord.gg/fmmzrWDZEC

Howdy, y'all!

So to (hopefully) help balance making art with school, I'm going to be trying out a new, experimental commissions que of mine - the commissions wish list!

The basic gist is:

- write your idea and fill out the information, using the form template here: https://forms.gle/4ko25WjpK7KuXPxV9

- when there's time available, I'll choose an idea to work on! (a confirmation notice can be sent via twitter or discord before commission starts if requested).

- art is completed, payment is shared

And that's it!

Now, this IS a brand-new idea I'm trying, so it's highly likely there's bound to be a few bugs. Please dm me here, discord, or twitter if you have any questions, comments, complaints, or suggestions for improvement!

Please also dm me if you want your form taken off the list - it will be assumed you want, and will pay for, an idea once it's sent until I receive any requests to remove inquiries.

Feel free to also dm me if you'd rather submit your idea through a dm than a form - I'll keep your idea in mind (this may have a chance of getting lost, though).

So if you have a commission idea you'd like me to draw, feel free to fill out the form anytime! This form will be up the entire school semester, so no deadlines or due dates here.

I may also be adding some new commission options soon - sketch pages, adopts, and more - so be on the lookout for those!

Thank you all for being so, so patient with me during this past year, I appreciate it so so much!!!


*disclaimers:

- these requests are for PAID art, not free art requests. Anyone who fills out a form will be expected to pay for the art upon
completion.
- filling out a form is not a guarantee that your commission request will be selected or drawn. It is not first come first serve, I will be choosing which commissions will be done.

Happy new year, everyone!

I would like to give a massive thank you to everyone for being such a wonderful group to draw art for! It's been a bit of a rough year, especially in the past few months, with struggling to balance schoolwork with art - but I hope that with a bit of better management and prep this coming year will run a lot more smoothly, now that I have a better idea with what to expect.

Christmas break will soon be drawing to an end, which means it's back to school. Until then, though, I hope to try and get as much art done as I can!

Sadly, though - fleshy, non-rubber bodies like mine are susceptible to disease: I've caught covid, so not much has been done the past few days. While it's gotten better, there's still a sore throat to contend with ... which is a huge pain. What I would give for a tough, immune latex body right now ... hopefully I can fully recover in time to do some art before heading back!

With all that said, I would like to give a massive thanks again to everyone for sticking around during this time. I can't tell you how much I really, truly appreciate your patience and friendliness, and it's really humbling to see so many people invested in what I create. Though I can be admittedly pretty shy, I still genuinely appreciate every interaction!

So, here's to another year of gooey transformative fun with everyone - and be sure to stay safe and healthy! (Or remove any risk entirely, by converting your body to latex today)

Howdy, everyone!

I apologize for being inactive for so long, this past college semester was way more demanding and stressful than I initially planned. Now it's Christmas break, which means I can finally focus most of my energy into art again!

For the How parks ych:

I've been debating with myself on what to do with the massive how parks series I began at the beginning of the school year. To put it simply, I may have bitten off more than I can chew.

I'm not sure if I have enough time to finish this project over Christmas break - and if I'm unable to do so, assuming that next semester is as busy as this one, then I may not get time to work on it again until summer next year.

I'm also worried about burnout from working on only the ych idea during Christmas break - especially if it means being unable to do anything for the holidays. There's also being closed for commissions until the ych is done - I'm hesitant with being unable to take any commissions until next summer - that's a very long time.

So with all that being said, there's 3 possibilities:

- Canceling it outright:

I'd finish the ones in progress and who already paid, but cancel the rest. If this happens, I may redesign the ych and offer them one by one, taking lessons from here and spreading them out over time for a more manageable project.


- Spreading them out:

If you're willing to wait, I could spread out the ych sheets between commissions and other art, and between Christmas and Summer break.

- Trimming them down:

I've promised a lot of extras on a lot of the ychs (for example, all the additional sketches/scenes here https://www.furaffinity.net/view/43089263/), which add a ton of time on every project. The buyer and I could renegotiate and trim down a slot with extras to a more manageable level, in exchange for a reduced final cost.

If you've bought a slot, dm me here, twitter, or on discord and let me know which option you'd prefer - or if you have another idea on what you'd like to do, feel free to let me know!

With all that said, I really, deeply apologize for any trouble I've caused or am causing regarding this ych. I've always had a tendency to be impulsive and promise more than I should, and while usually it's been manageable, This time I think I've finally dug a deeper hole than I can get out of - I may have to just admit defeat on this one. It's my fault, and I'm sorry.

I have definitely learned some lessons from this:

- don't do more than one ych page at a time
- don't start a massive project right before school starts

I do plan on finishing any of the ych pages currently in progress, and anyone who's already paid for theirs. Feel free to remind me if you've done so!

I am also still fully planning on building and developing the theme of How parks. Feel free to ask for themed art commissions if you're interested in one!

One more caveat I would like to add is that this is largely speculative - I won't be working at a job this break, so doing art is going to be my main source of income during this time. It will be hard to say anything definitive until I can get a better idea of how much art I'll actually be able to do reasonably over the course of break, while balancing mental health and time with family.

With that being said, I'm sorry for failing your trust. I hope to do better in the future.

Let me know if you have any questions or concerns in the comments section, or dm me! I hope to get in touch with everyone who's bought a slot, and release a more concrete plan for Christmas within a few days.

Thank you so, so much for understanding, and merry Christmas!

Howdy!

I’ll be visiting family during thanksgiving break, so I’ll be largely inactive during this time. Thanks a lot for understanding, and y’all have a wonderful thanksgiving!

Howdy y'all!

So I've been a lot less active than I'd like to be. This college semester was way busier than I originally thought, leaving a lot less time to actually draw. It's been hard balancing time for art, especially now with multiple huge and urgent projects coming up.

I deeply apologize to everyone for being so inactive, especially those waiting for the ych of mine. I do plan on finishing those in the future, but I may not be able to make significant progress on them until this Christmas break, after school is over.

If you have any concerns or questions about it, feel free to message me here or on discord. I want to get some art up here as soon as I can, once I can actually get some free time again.

Thank you all so much for your patience!

Howdy, y'all!

So I've started my third year in college. Of course, this means I'll have to be devoting a big amount of my time towards schoolwork, and I'll be posting less frequently than normal.

Thanks a ton for your patience and continued interest in what I do!

Howdy, y'all!

So it's the 13th and I've arrived in college, which means the auction is now over! I'll be getting in contact with the winners, and hopefully I can get started on them with these free days before classes start!

I'm really super happy to see y'all's enthusiasm for this idea, and am looking forwards to fleshing it out even more.

If you've won, feel free to get in touch with me through either discord (preferred), twitter, or here!

Howdy, y'all!

So I'm doing a ych auction to celebrate the opening of How Parks!

https://www.furaffinity.net/view/43149183/

I plan on making this a consistent theme, as well as experiment with worldbuilding and long-term plot development.

Feel free to check it out, and thanks a ton for your interest!

Howdy y’all!

So I have two art updates:

First, my laptop is having some trouble with the internet connection, which until i’m able to fix it means I’m not able to post anything at the moment. Sorry about the delay!

The second update is that some new auto repairs that need to be done have come up, which means I’ll need to be prioritizing commissions over artfight this month (though hopefully I can still at least put out a few sketches or such)

Thanks for understanding, and I once again apologize for the delay!

https://picarto.tv/how2101

I'll be arting for a while this time around, so come on down and join! I'd love to have you!

Howdy! Just wanted to say, I’ll be on vacation for a week so don’t expect much from me for now. Thanks for understanding!

Howdy y’all!

First I wanted to say I got a new job for the summer! While it’s definitely awesome earring some steady money, this means I won’t be able to draw as much.

The second update is I’m taking a family trip to Gatlinburg for 4 days! So expect even less material for the upcoming week.

Thank you all for your support and enjoyment!

Howdy, y'all!

I've just about wrapped my school assignments (for this year) and art projects, so it's finally time to launch another round of commissions! I have a few open days before the start of my new summer job at target (yay), so hopefully I can squeeze a lot of art in!

I'll be opening 5 commission slots of any type(except comic)! they'll be open for 24 hours.

This is NOT first come first serve, I'll be choosing from the available options!

Dm me on here, twitter, or discord if you're interested in a slot or have any questions!
