had a lot of fun while I was there!!

while I didn't go to EF, I partied hard enough to make my brain fall out with my friends.
Ate lots of good food including some brilliant Ramen in Dusseldorf, and all you can eat Sushi in Dortmund.
Went to Kabuki Night in Bochum (then spent the next day being far too hung over to move xD)
Went to the Zoo n saw Dolphins and stuff!! and got licked by a baby goat.

anyway, I now have a cold which is makin my head feel mega fuzzy, but i'm gonna be getting back to work on commissions as soon as I've finished eating dinner!

im still away fron home till the 22nd but i reached 600 followers in insta so decided to do a give away to celebrate
(I'll be doing a give away here on fa when i reach 5000 watchers)

So I'm going on holiday from 9th to 22nd this month.

That means any unfinished artwork will not be worked on while I'm away.
I'm not sure if I'm taking my laptop but even if I do, it's too old to reliably run any art programs and I'll be too busy with friends so wont be able to work on it anyway.

I'm still happy to accept commission orders, but please be aware that they probably wont be processed until i return.
http://masacomms.weebly.com/order.html

Any new commission orders will be added to the end of my queue and I'll be working on any unfinished stuff before I work on anything new (coms are worked on in order of payment)

with business stuff outta the way,

I'll be going to Germany, but no I'm not going to Eurofurence. (i couldn't organise anything for it. maybe next year)
I'm going to visit some friends around Dortmund.
Not really sure what we'll be doing besides going to a beach con, and a jrock club night.
but it's been 2 years since i went to Germany and since I saw these friends ;w; I've missed them a lot!
If you're interested in keeping up with any photos I take while on holiday, you can check them out on my instagram! https://www.instagram.com/monsterkei/

Hope anyone going EF has fun! And how those not going have a good time too doin whatever you're doing.

just a small FYI, I've altered my signature slightly. It still said Masahiko, but since Masa isn't my sona anymore, or a name I'll respond to, I've been meaning to change it to say Keihiko for a while.

It's a small difference but i just thought i'd give people a heads up in case they notice it

old and new sigs side by side:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/31cow64po.....hange.png?dl=0

There wont be another one until October, so try and grab it while you can!!

current bid is at $135
I'm open to consider autobuy offers if you note me with it.

Always read an artists ToS (where available) COMPLETELY before commissioning them.

These are the terms you're agreeing to and are legally bound by when an artist accepts your commission.

And if it says payment is due within 24 hours of the invoice being sent, you need to pay within that 24 hours unless something has been worked out BEFORE you placed the order.

If you don't have money to pay right then and there (for artists who require payment upfront at least) then don't commission them unless you've talked to them first and they've accepted you paying at a later date!

- Of bones I've broken: i've broken a few toes before.

I hate summer. it makes my skin feel puffy and my eyes sore and I have trouble regulating my body temp at the best of times so summer is hell.
Cause if i'm cold i can always pile on blankets. but if i'm hot, once i'm naked in a cold bath it's not like i can take my skin off to cool down D<

It's gonna be 35c here today. england usually doesnt get above 28c. plus it's gonna be like 95% humidity or something stupid.

(and before you go LOL USA GETS HOTTER DON'T COMPLAIN, I have never lived in the USA, so my body is not acclimatized to anything other than usual UK temps and it's bein kinda dickish always pointing that out lol.)

35c is how hot it was when I went Tokyo in 2011... it was hell! No wonder ppl in japan shower every day. if you're going out in that temp all summer, sweat rolling down your back, ya need to wash every day.

...on a side note I miss ofuro. was nice having a sit down shower before a nice soak in a super deep bath every day. aaaaa.

As title says, What Kinda YCH's do you wanna see from me?

themes, poses, number of characters, ect.

right now thinking of doing maybe one or two painted BG coms. though not until I've posted the example I did yesterday (which will be in a week cause it patreon only content until then)

Hopped on the bandwagon for i am indeed a curious cat.

so...

do the thing...

https://curiouscat.me/612195291

YOOO my friend cou has this adorable liger femboy adopt up for grabs! go check it out!!!

http://www.furaffinity.net/view/20405421/

if anyone wants to buy me anything from my steam wishlist i'll draw you art in return (up to value of what you bought)

though please TELL ME before buying me anything.

http://steamcommunity.com/id/trashbambi/wishlist

also feel free to add me as a friend but be aware that i rarely, if ever, reply to messages on there.

(since a few of them are below any of my commission prices, you'll get at least a sketch.)

From InkedFur: "The staff of InkedFur are heartbroken over the events last weekend in Orlando. Sangie working with the staff decided to host a fundraiser to raise money for Equality Florida.

Of all the prints that are purchased below over the next week, half of the proceeds will either go to Equality Florida’s gofundme or directly to the organization to help benefit the victims of the Pulse shooting. The artists will still get their share of the profits.

All the images below have been selected from our staff and creators that we feel appropriately represent all facets of the LGBTQI+ spectrum, with some pieces directly drawn to vent out the heartache of this tragedy.

Please place your purchases before Friday, June 24th, which is when the fundraiser will end at 11:59 PM CST.

Thank you for your support."

I have three prints available in this selection.
http://inkedfur.com/print/cafe-date/
http://inkedfur.com/print/afternoon-nap/
http://inkedfur.com/print/good-kitty-2/

You can also browse the other prints included in this fundraiser here: http://inkedfur.com/pulse/

My heart goes out to all those directly affected by the event and i hope we can raise enough money to even make a tiny difference for them. and also to the rest of the LGBTQI+ community who are emotionally affected by this horrible reminder that we could be killed just for existing, because some people cant just accept us and move on.

I hope you consider supporting this fundraiser by purchasing a print or two! And everyone who does, be it my prints or someone elses, thank you for doing so.

and thank you to all my new watchers! I hope you enjoy my art! (i'm most active on FN: https://beta.furrynetwork.com/keihiko/ )

Time for my first ever furry con! Well, I'll be leaving in a couple of hours, gottha take a bath n get dressed first. Will be arriving bout 1:30!
(I've been to hotel based anime cons before loads of times tho)

Feels weird to be going to a con and not having to lug a huge suitcase with me. Usually I have to take my cosplays too xD
if you're going, feel free to say hi if ya see me!


When I get back, I have 3 sketch coms to finish, and then I'll be opening normal commissions, and badge commissions for terrarium badges!
as usual, slots will be released first to patreons, then my mailing list (free! sign up here, you'll only be emailed when commissions slots are open: http://weebly.us12.list-manage1.com.....;id=0126437850 ), then to FN watchers, then to everywhere else!

Basically, I'm moving over to FN as my main gallery.

all art will be posted there as and when it's completed.
FA will be updated once a week at MOST. (Aiming for Thursdays to be my FA update day.)

I'll check here for messages and comments and stuff, but I strongly advise you go watch me on FN!

FurryNetwork: https://beta.furrynetwork.com/keihiko/

as for commissions announcements, as usual it'll be patrons first, then the mailing list, then furry network. If there are any slots left over after a week, i'll post the remainder here. But if you want a commission it's best to either sign up for my mailing list (here) or follow me on FN!

Got home about two hours ago after around 22 hours travelling. needless to say i'm super tired cause i never sleep well on longhaul flights. And still super tired after two weeks of walking around Tokyo havin fun~

for those of you who wanted to check out my holiday snaps, they're mostly up on my instagram! https://www.instagram.com/monsterkei/
I felt it was easier to post them there as i went instead of making a folder somewhere.

As for what I'm doing now, I'm going to rest up for a day or two, hope someone on the flights hasn't given me some kinda illness, and rest my back (cause hot damn all my bags were only just under weight allowance oops n that killed my back, plus airline seats are evil)

I'll then be going right to work on the commissions I didn't manage to finish before I left.
So the Daki YCH, waywardlaycan's badge, and my friends commission will be finished ASAP.
It'll be about a week max.

THEN I WILL BE OPENING COMMISSIONS. Ya. Mainly, terrarium badge commissions.
I WILL BE DOING A LIMITED NUMBER OF COLLECT AT CONFUZZLED BADGES! So if you are going to confuzzled and want a badge by me for it, then that's your best bet. I don't have a table or anything, but I'll organise with people a time and place to collect the badges. (I wont take cash on collection for them tho you still have to pay via paypal before I'll draw it)

If you would like to be informed of my commissions opening via email, a full 24 hours before they're open to the general public, please sign up for my mailing list here: http://weebly.us12.list-manage1.com.....;id=0126437850
and an email will be sent as soon as I can!

ALSO COMING SOON:
I have a bunch of ideas for little keychains and stickers and stuff, They will be of my characters (as commissions for them could bee a lil too pricey for most peoples taste i think due to manufacturing costs), so if you wanna have a say in which of my characters I make keychain and sticker designs of, please vote here: http://www.strawpoll.me/10171859

I've come back with a head full of ideas, so look forwards to those!

as I mentioned in my last journal, I'm about to go to Japan for two weeks!

I'll be flying out there on monday, but i'm staying in a hotel near the airport tonight so I wont have reliable internet from the moment i leave home really. (in england mainly because it'll be on my phone, which doesnt like FA, and in Japan I'll only have my phone and the hotel wifi since my phone is locked to 3 and i'd need to unlock it to use a japanese internet sim)

anyway, so yeh, I wont be on FA much if at all for two weeks from today!

if you need me for anything, i'm most easily reachable via tweet KEIHIKO_GALAXY
or if you leave a comment or note, I'll get back to you as soon as I return to the UK!

Also if there's anyone who wants me to link them to my holiday photos when i get back, leave a comment here! ^o^

see you all in two weeks~~~

First of all is:

Sometimes i get people in stream, (and i dont know if they're regular followers or if they just come for the streams) who repeatedly call me 'she', especially when my mic is on and you can hear my voice.

I would just like to remind people that I'm a guy and to please only refer to me with he/him/his pronouns. thank you.

of course I will excuse and initial confusion, but if I correct you (or someone else corrects you because I'm terrible at noticing things when i'm drawing), please don't make a big deal out of it going "OMG I AM SO SORRY I DIDNT KNOW BLABLABLA PLEASE FORGIVE ME I JUST THOUGHT BLABLABLA" like, really, just say "oh sorry" make the change to the correct pronouns and MOVE ON.

If anyone is corrected but then constantly, repeatedly calls me she/her/hers without trying to correct themselves, or who make excuses as to why they wont change, I WILL be blocking you on everything I can find you on. because of the high likelihood that people who do this are anti-trans or just general dickheads.

this goes for any site you talk to me on, not just streams. I'm a guy, please treat me as such.

SECONDLY:::

I am about to go on holiday to Japan for two weeks.
While I'm there I wont have reliable access to the internet, and even if I do, the likelihood of me coming onto FA is VERY LOW.
I will respond to any comments/notes when I get back.
so please keep this in mind and don't spam me asking why i haven't replied.

I'll be trying to take a lot more pics this time around, but i wont be posting many, if any, here. If you'd like to see any pics I take, please leave a comment about it and I'll link you to the FB album when I get back!

If you have any questions before I go (I'll be leaving on the 24th) ask em quick!

got questions about ANYTHING?
art? general life stuff? trans issues? w/e you want

Ask em here and I'll answer.

nothing is off limits to ask but i reserve the right to not answer any questions that make my too uncomfortable (such as giving my home address and stuff)
