Artists are an ever evolving sort, who will exist no matter what. Artists are incredible in all sorts of forms. We will always find ways to share expressions, and so here's some other places to watch Hally! Hopefully things go well for those impacted by the changes, and will always wish the best for folks.

Good time to go through the gallery and decide what you all want to keep! No ticket response yet, but wanna be safe and give you all a fair heads up.

Twitter - Probably the most occupied aside from here on FA.

https://twitter.com/Xilrayne

Itaku - Going to be the big one for Hally probably. Pretty nice site!! Lotsa catchup.

https://itaku.ee/profile/xilrayne

Hally has other sites too, all under the name Xilrayne because yeah that's just easier. Weasyl, e621, SoFurry, IB, and even FurryNetwork. We will still keep posting here for whatever, but pokemon content may get swiped on over to the others, so keep an eye out!

Have a beautiful day, and take good care of one another!

Really just making this to yammer happily about how neat they are and you don't worry about it in the least LOL.

Been going through and enjoying things never got to and this world is gonna get fucking turned into a Lisa Frank painting with the amount of pretty colors Hally's gonna smack on everything.

LIKE... LOOK. OKAY. JUST EXCITED TO DO THINGS AND DRAW STUFF HALLY LIKES THEY'RE LIKE 90% SKETCHES HALLY'S TOO NERVOUS TO POST MOST THE TIME BUT THEY'RE FUN.

It's good to take time for yourself and enjoy the things you like, or never really got to even if you wanted to, do it while you can, do it for you. Nobody else <3 Just spoil yourself a little bit.

Buy Unicorn Pajamas and stickers. Be happy!! <33 Share some love!!

YEP. Hally's going, if y'all wanna see or meet Hally at any point - please ask before touching or giving a hug or anything, haha. Hally is very touch sensitive, so don't feel offended if Hally refuses!


It'll be ridiculously easy to spot Hally, Hally's going to be wearing Berry's hat the whole convention! (Unless it gets to sweaty) but yeah!!

No new badge this year, don't have the time to create and get it all printed. But we'll see, Hally might be able to speed one out? Probably not, haha. Just keep an eye out for giant otter badges too.


See you all there!!

Yeah so, gonna upload like... 50 images this weekend, if all things go well. So prepare yourselves for that, because there's gonna be a lot, and probably gonna take most the day to do it LOL. Hally has to put this out, that way actually feel obligated to upload a buncha stuff, it'll be a ton of stuff from last year but uh, gonna try and catch up a bit.

There will still be some slight edits on this, but Hally's finished picking the main ones, sending out responses and making sure of certain changes! But overall this is the list for now!

Allllllrighty, this is going to be interesting! So Hally's kind of hit... A biiit of a burnout, so going to try something new to both help Hally's self on this stuff and hopefully make it more interesting for people too! Hally is going to be trying to do some themed in stream commissions, here's the fun part! They're not all going to be colored sketches, Hally wants to do more lined work, so Hally, during next week and all through the streams will be holding a raffle to see who gets the slot for that day for a Valentines Day Commission for up to two people! This can go all the way to simple shading, and as low as colored sketch!


But aside from themes, that's only for one week, so what about normal commissions? Well, not to worry there. Those are now OPEN! Hally will be deciding them after the theme week! So if you're around during the day then hop into a stream and see about grabbing one to be done that day, or post a comment or send a note with what you want of a commission and Hally will pick and choose the ones Hally likes, that Hally thinks will be fun and good to work on!!

Looking forward to seeing what everyone has to offer, thanks for your patience, and here's hoping work gooooes smooth~<3!!

First off, Hally wants to thank everyone for their many notes and ideas! There's a whole bunch to choose from and Hally was so hard pressed, that Hally went up from the original eight Hally was going to take to grab the other ones that Hally just HAD to draw too~<3 This list is not in any particular order, and for those accepted: Hally will be finishing the sketch first, waiting for approval, and taking money only after it is approved.

This means you need to hold onto your money, Hally will be working on these steadily and trying to mingle in some stream fun things for people too! Hally looks forward to this! Here's the list!

 Ghost_Forger FINISHED
 Azil31 COMPLETED

 CherryBlueBerry COMPLETED

LithiumArragua ON INKBUNNY sketched, awaiting approval

Chirmaya ON INKBUNNY COMPLETED

 PinkButterfree COMPLETED

 Ryodramon FINISHED

 Neonvapor COMPLETED

 Pseudofaux COMPLETED

TheLustyStallion ON INKBUNNY SKETCHED

Leafff ON INKBUNNY COMPLETED

Shafdog ON INKBUNNY

Four more than planned, but Hally had to take some of these super cute ideas~<3

So Hally will definitely be busy with these, haha! For those who regularly attend Hally's streams you'll likely see them being worked on, and if you're there while starting up you can see it sketched, confirm it, and have it finished that day!

Thanks a bunch guys!! And Happy Holidays!!!

Hffffffffffff there's so many good one's it's killing Hally Hally loves so many of these!!! You guys have had an amazing turn out, Hally is going to mull these over today, there's a lot to pick and don't want to take toooo many but there's so many good ones and ???? UGH, HALLY LOVES THEM!!!!!!!


Hally will be selecting and finalizing the choices tomorrow! Hally really has to pick and choose these now, haha. Just based on what would be the most interesting, the most fun?? But there's so much cute stuff, and so many lewd things too. You guys SPOIL HALLY WITH GOOD IDEAS.


See you tomorrow~<3

Soon is now.

Prices are HERE http://www.furaffinity.net/view/24627785/

At least for the bigger pieces, and as per usual, they'll be taken a bit ahead of time. If you want to commission Hally, look at the piece you want, the level of detail and HOLD ONTO THAT MONEY. Hally will not accept payment until the sketch is completed and approved and ready to be continued to completion! So! Without further ado, let's get some people starting out with some ideas!!


Hally will take the ideas, and select them after a couple days or a week has passed! That gives EVERYBODY plenty of time to get their ideas in! You can choose to put one in through a note, or through the comments below! And when the time is up and Hally has selected them, Hally will announce those who were selected.

This is not first come first serve! Hally will draw what seems fun, and what Hally thinks will get the most for you done as well!



Hally is also offering Experimental Colored Sketches, which basically mean Hally is going to be practicing basic cellshading on them, they will be five dollars cheaper!



Let's hear what you all have got~<3


Hally will be deciding on the commissions come the new month, you guys got time to decide on your stuff~

SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOON!!!!!!!!!







HALLY IS A BIG DUMB AND ACCIDENTALLY REMOVED THE OLD JOURNAL IN HALLY'S HASTE TO FINISH WRITING EVERYTHING

So because Hally's a big dumb, Hally is going to note the people who's details Hally lost and grab what Hally can, thanks for the understanding!!!


Alright! It's the 4th! Labor Day, WHOA!!! And Hally is going to finalize the details with those Hally has chosen to take the commission of! Those who haven't provided the full details Hally needs, or refs, will have to be taken off if they don't have any! SO FAR IT SEEMS GOOD THOUGH!!

The following have been accepted, and it is in no particular order what so ever.

QuinQuasar on Inkbunny COMPLETED

 Lemonynade COMPLETED

 Azil31 COMPLETED

 Ichiinu COMPLETED

 MegaNovaV1 COMPLETED

 Jonathan0322 COMPLETED

 Ghost_Forger COMPLETED

 Blackdragon1800 COMPLETED


Thank you all so much for responding, and if you didn't get in this round, don't worry! Hally plans on doing these more often and trying to do them as often as possible! Will finalize details and make sure all the refs and ideas are in place!

Thanks again!

_{Hally is so embarrassed, aaaaaaaa!! What a dumb fumble akjslgjalg, sorrrrryyy!!! Hasty, hasty, hasty.}


AWESOME, thank you all for the wonderful support~<3 Will be opening this up again once one more major picture is finished, and hope to see more wonderful ideas then!!!

Hally's bad at keeping these things up LOL! The move is completed! Hally wanted to go ahead and give you guys a couple updates!~ Hally is now doing art as a job FULL TIME~! It means Hally's drawing as much as Hally can every single day, with scheduled breaks and everything. It'll take some time to adjust, but it also means Hally will be trying to stream as much as possible too! So it won't hurt to check it out to see if it's up, because it might be! The times it usually won't be up is any time past Friday 7pm Eastern Time until Saturday 3pm Eastern Time. Because Friday is game night with the roomy and oh god it lasts too long.

Usually the streams tend to start around 1 or 2pm Eastern on most days.

On to other news! The new place is great, if not a bit expensive, but it is a house! A wonderful place much closer to Anthrocon! This means Hally will be going every single year most likely, and some surrounding cons around Virginia Beach too! As long as the travel is under 10 hours at least, ahaha.

Other things to make note of is Hally's plan to create a very nice and fancy thing, of which there simply isn't enough of! And yes, it's being kept vague! As mentioned in the Spotted Topaz upload, Hally is planning something Pokemon themed! A couple people are aware of what Hally's planning to create and it will be nice! Hoping to be able to create multiple things similar to it in the future too as well as for other themes and creatures~!

Thiiiink that's about it, right now? That should be it! Hope you all are having an excellent day!

Yep! That's right! Hally is starting the full prep for Hally's move! If everything is done in extremely good time and all looking perfect and ready Hally will likely finish one or two more commissions before the move! Hally will be on a short break after moving to settle in and try and get situated and create a much better work space than what Hally has to be better for Hally's posture and wrist!

This is good! Hally is so excited! Hally will be moving to Virginia Beach, VA! From Oklahoma! Here's hoping it all goes smooth! Gonna be driving a big truck and towing a car for a big 20 hour drive, really nervous! But Hally's looking forward to the new home!

This meaaaans... Hally will likely be going to more cons in the future! Since a lot of them are around that area, Hally will be able to better work on Hally's art! This is all going to be wonderful! Not just that, the area Hally is moving into is going to be so much safer than Hally's current living situation! Infinitely so!

The move is on the 10th! The truck will be gotten then and Hally will be starting on Hally's way! <3

Hoping to start back full commission work on the 15th!

Oh boy! This is exciting! This is going to be fun to announce! Hally has begun artwork at full force, full time! Hally focuses on timing out Hally's work per week and making an average of the income earned according to time spent! What's this mean!?

It means it is genuinely being treated as a job, proper stretches, breaks, and hours of work all for your enjoyment! This also means Hally's commissions are getting done exponentially faster than normal, and that Hally will be streaming almost every single day.

Hally has set Saturday and Sunday as 'days off' as Hally will be involved in a Pathfinder (Dungeons and Dragons on supercrack) campaign that is ENTIRELY TOO FUN. If you guys have interest, Hally can stream that but mostly what you get is us giggling and saying stupid jokes. Or making perverted jokes about pokemon, hue.

As for what this does for Hally's commissions?? It means the list is going to get bigger! This will no longer be a hobby, and the prices have been updated in order to better suit the time Hally spends per art to be able to make a living wage! Hopefully as time goes on, Hally will get even faster and once that happens, Hally might drop the prices a teensy bit for some small things. Or offer more simplified things for the extra speed in the future! Who's to say!? Anywho! Hally's bad at updating the commission list on the profile, going to go do that now.

Hally will update the list tomorrow! But wow, just wanted to thank you guys for how quickly and HOW MANY people responded! Hally is really blown away, and got a huge list to look through already! Wow, you guys! This means a whole lot! Hally is genuinely surprised!

Waaaaaaaaah~<33333333333

FN IS SOME GOOD SHIT MMHM,

https://beta.furrynetwork.com/hally/ Hally should have made it Xilrayne, woops v.v

ALSO COMMISSIONS ARE OPEN! Hally's first batch is going to be a bit picky on adding to the list, getting used to it all, y'know? Going to start with five! It will not be first come first serve this time! Next time!

What Hally will NOT draw is rape, scat, gore, vomit. The usuals there, yeah? If you're not sure! Ask!

1.  marrionette Sketch

2. Anonymous (Reference Sheet)

3.

4.

5.

Hally's going to do it. Hally's opening them! It won't be official until tomorrow or two weeks, depending! But Hally needs to start making money doing something Hally loves, after something that occurred at work Hally will no longer be working there.

Hally will be doing art full time. Hally will create a schedule, and figure out an exact way to handle all this as well as work on a pricing sheet.

LET'S GO!

More specifically, Hally is trying to learn all the jimjams and Hally knows zero shits about animation, it's fun though! Hally's done a couple little test things! Hally however has a big gripe with this program Hally's using, it has autoline correction! It's Harmony, and Hally would very much so like to know how to turn it off. It makes drawing impossible for Hally sense Hally tends to use short and quick strokes most the time, it just fucks them up! ; ^;

Hally also appreciates any advice or help Hally can get, been busy with this and spending a lot of time trying to handle it all xD Hally's tried a couple different programs so far TVpaint and Harmony are the nicest, but only on the trial of both. Which means NO SAVING AAAAAAAAAAAAAA

https://gyazo.com/00ea2155302ab7887a1b03870b2e60fc There's one thing Hally did

EDIT:

OKAY HALLY FIGURED OUT THE SKETCH THING? Hally doesn't know how to do vectors or anything like that, this is flat out new starting. Hally desperately would love all the help Hally can get, anything will be nice! <3 Thanks so much!

https://www.patreon.com/Xilrayne

Hally needed to make one eventually, haha! And don't worry you guys! Hally won't be like... Limiting what you guys get to see, you'll all get to see it at the same time! NO PAYWALL FOR YOU, FRIENDS.

http://hallyartsies.tumblr.com/

YEP THIS IS AN ART TUMBLR, it's BRAND new but really hoping to get it going, going to take a bit to get every single bit of art over there and it will be a slow and grueling process, but hopefully it will be some sort of inspiration! There will be absolutely all kinds of stuff over here and feel free to ask any questions! Quite excited to start it all up, and really hope it gets to working nicely~!

Haha, Hally's one of the weird ones, maybe! Don't know! But if you're afraid to comment (like Hally sometimes is on other people, hahaaaa no room to speak!) Don't be! Hally's super friendly, sure there's some rules for commenting but they're all basic common sense, for most places anyway.

Just don't go RP'ing in Hally's comments to like the fullest or anything like that, Hally loves to hear what you think, if you enjoyed the art! All that! So glad to hear about it, and do so love to converse! Just not one for notes, those bug Hally xD And usually tend to forget about notes, haha, WOOPSIES.

Hally is still learning and still practicing new stuff ALL the time! It's good, and broadens horizons and all that stuff, blahblah! Love for all, also it's late at the time of the posting of this journal so sleep shall soon cometh!

Also good morning

Good afternoon

Good evening

Good night!

If FA could actually work LOLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL HALLY'S FUNNY HAHAHAHA no seriously.

On a better side note! Hally has been playing WoW a lot with friends, and really love the pandaren! Might end up drawing Hally's monk or something D: HYPER HERM PANDAS ALL BIG AND CHUBBY WOOP WOOP BACK UP DAT AS TOO FAT~!

Weh! Been trying nonstop for like a week! And chances are Hally will STILL draw something today, but usually do things as soon as waking up, right now? Stayed up way too late playing WoW and cat woke Hally up because he was hungry, so cat's got food and likely just going to do stupid stuff with friends on more video games today!

Still a pretty fabulous crabulous chance of art today though, might just be a sketch, but it could very well be art. HALLY CAN'T STOP DRAWING JETS.

So do appreciate the new watches and do so hope will be able to keep you all coming! Hope to keep uploading things you all like, and will at least try to keep FA updated like IB is, haha xD! Tend to upload to IB first, right now just uploading a couple of older stuff and might take a bit doing so! Hopefully you don't mind all the jets either, they're fun to draw and will likely draw and commission a couple more things of them (depending if Hally can find an artist that is to Hally's taste who draws them, might be ratbat someday, haha!)

Anywho! Thanks a bunch to you all <3! You've all been wonderfully friendly~! Hope it stays so! Thankies thankies~!

Also, if any of the art ends up on e621 or any place like that, please make the artist as Xilrayne, don't really like using Maikasuke as a artist name, mainly use IB and the name there is Xilrayne too, yes. Thanks~<3
