hey everyone, so a while ago i briefly hit $100 a month on patreon (back down now but eh) and hit a milestone which was to give away 5 free prints!
Now, one of those was claimed by a patron, no one else was interested from my patreon so the last 4 free prints will be given away to YOU GUYS! You get to pick any print from my inked fur gallery (my art only). you can see the prints on offer here: https://inkedfur.com/creator/masahikoko/
you MUST be ok with giving me your address. I will be putting the orders through myself and paying shipping myself. they will be shipped directly to you from the printers.
HOW TO ENTER:
you must be a watcher of my account.
comment on this journal with the following:
- link to the print you'd like from me
- throw me a kiss! ;P
- tell me something you like about my art!
thats it! there's no way to get extra entries, and comments from non-watchers or that don't have those three things will be ignored.
good luck everyone! and you are of course always welcome to buy prints from me even if you don't win! (that'd be great actually yanno xD)

So I need to practice drawing more muscled guys. so I thought I'd open it up and let you show me your characters and I'll pick a couple I like the most and do sketches of them.
sketches may be just sketches, or may have added colour or shading or both. it depends on how I feel.
might be SFW or NSFW. if you absolutely dont want NSFW please tell me
all muscley boys are welcome. lean muscle, bara, as long as it's visible muscle and not hyper/macro.
this is to draw muscles so I'm not looking for chubby characters.
to get free art you MUST PROVIDE THESE THINGS!:
- link me to a reference sheet of your character (ONE OR TWO IMAGES ONLY)
- tell me a little about your characters personality (two or three sentences. please don't post an essay it will be ignored, as will posts without this info)
- say notice me senpai so i know you read everything

Basically, because I've now left university, the government no longer classes me as a dependant. Meaning my dad no longer get's council tax cuts and his CT would go up from £15 a month to something like £86 a month, and having no jobe/being on the dole, he can't afford that (also yes he is looking for a job has been for over a year and no one will hire him cause he was out of work for health reasons for so long)
This means, to keep out CT cut, I now have to sign on to job seekers (the daily grind of showing the government that you're applying for any and all jobs you could possibly do skills wise so they'll give you a weekly allowance thats well below the living wage)
In regards to art, this means I can't earn too much money from art, or they take me off benefits (even if i'm earning less than they give me) and my dads TC goes right back up and he can't afford that so he'd get kicked out of his home, and both of us would then be homeless.
Which is bad because Art supplemented me for so long but it's also not making enough per picture to be a living wage (it's also too unreliable).
Basically if I earn say £50. I get to keep £5 of that, and then £45 will be taken away from the allowance they give me each week. (say I get £80 a week, they take off £45, I then get £35) and yeh it means art would replace what they're giving me but if that happens too often I get taken off benefits.
Soooo, I'm trying not to take too many paid commissions/ych's right now. This will change after I get an actual regular job/wage and I'll try to take more again. but until then, you all might be waiting a while if you've been wanting a commission from me.
Would commissioners rather:
wait and see when i randomly open for like 1 slot,
OR
Be added to a waiting list with a 20% of commission price insurance fee (non-refundable) (so you don't pull out if you can help it and have the rest of the money ready when theres a slot for you) and then I'd work down the waiting list?
if that makes any sense? if you need clarification let me know cuase I think I'm terrible at explaining it in a short, concise way.
Personal art, art for Kitten Cuffs, Patreon, and trades/collabs will be taking up most of my time now.

I've really wanted to get a toyhou.se account for a while now but you need an invite code from someone already on there right?
I don't really know anyone on there so I was wondering if anyone would be willing to help me out by giving me an invite code?
Anyone who does, I'll give you a sketch of your character as a thank you!

When I reach 4000 watchers I'll hold another give away with a chance to win free art from me!
It'll be similar to the previous one but the entry rules will be a little different~
thanks to everyone whose watched me so far! I don't individually thank people (cause then i'd get upset if i accidentally missed anyone and i'd constantly be thinking i had ahhhhh) but I super appreciate every follow, fav and comment! <3
There's also a few big plans for things lined up, some of it i'm not sure I can talk about yet (need to check) but I'm also planning to start work on a comic!
Also commissions will be opening again in June! From now on I'll be trying to increase how many I take and make it more regular, since I no longer have university to worry about.
I'll also be trying to work out a regular stream routine, but it might just stay as whenever I feel like it.
as always, if you have any questions at all about anything (from stuff about my art to gender identity stuff, advice on life or anything) feel free to ask via comments or note! love you all! -blows kisses, n winks-

Uuuughhh my productivity levels have dropped so low...
I think it's cause, what with quitting uni, and a bunch of other stuff, and coming out as trans publicly and not getting any bad reactions... the relief has rushed me all at once and the stress has left me but i've been stressed for so long by body is like "ok now thats over lets get you some rest"
so now i'm constantly tired and unable to focus and nnnnnn. -melts-
i'll make myself get back up and running with art as soon as my body doesnt feel so drained.

So, after talking with a bunch of people and my family, I've decided that I won't be finishing university.
Several reasons including the fact that it's affecting my mental health so severely, and it's making life really difficult. And I feel like I'm putting my life on hold to study on a course where i'm not learning anything. And even if I passed this year, I honestly fee like my 3rd year would be impossible for me, especially the dissertation.
So, for my health mostly, I won't be finishing uni.
This means that I'll be trying to up the amount of work I do here! and I'll be going ahead with a few projects I've been wanting to do and had been putting off cause of Uni. So look forwards to those!
If you have any questions feel free to ask here~
And remember, personal work will be posted to patreon a week before it's posted anywhere else, along with exclusive sketches and unfinished works, so please consider helping to support me a pledging to me there!

I was wondering if I should do some commission reservation slots?
as it is right now, although i finished the original list of commissions, i've got a couple of patreon pics to do and a bunch of stuff for rekzar so I wont be opening commissions yet
but i thought, for those of you who really really want a commission and want to be assured you'll get one when i open again, reservation slots might be a good idea?
It'd be like this
I take 5 commissions at a time.
when those slots are full, there will be a further 5 slots for reservations
reservations will be ensured by a 20% non-refundable deposit (20% of the full price of your commission)
when it comes to commissions opening again, or if I finish really fast and want something to do before opening again, I'll contact you first, you pay the rest of the commission price (the remaining 80%)
I do your commission then.
reservations would only be available to flat colour commissions or above.
it would be non-refundable so that people will be less likely to pull out, and in case i make a start with ref gathering ect when i have spare time.
do you think reservations are a good idea?
if yes do you think the reservation process is ok? or is there something you think would work better/be changed?
let me know!

Comment below with which you think I am~
1. ♥
An "Idol" Artist - You are an artist I look up to, get inspiration from, and sometimes I wish I had your talent~
2. ♥
An Improving Artist - Your talent is obvious, but it is not perfected. There are many things you can fix about your work, but that doesn't mean you aren't wonderful already~
3. ♥
A Compassionate, Caring Artist - You are an artist who does what they can to help other people, even if it means putting down everything you're working on to help someone in need. Your art is great, but your heart is greater~
4. ♥
A Normal Artist - You are a typical, everyday artist who wants to do their best and I have neutral feelings about you as a person~
5. ♥
"People's" Artist - You do what everyone WANTS you to do. You tend to work more on things everyone else wants than what you want to. If the community doesn't like it, neither do you~

So I might start offering comic commissions and thought I'd gauge interest before I do. It wont be until I've finished my current commission list though.
Would you prefer it to be priced:
per panel?
per page?
(max 5 panels per page)
also would be standard 1-2 characters in the comic, every character after those would be extra too.
so yeh, leave a comment let me know what you think if you'd be interested in comics from me or if you have any questions.
I haven't worked out a price yet, I will after i get some feedback.

Ahhhhh, it's been so long since I've had this much fun~
My first ever London Furs meet was wonderful!
despite getting lost on the way there (i am hopeless without google maps when it comes ot walking)
when i got there, Will was super nice and introduced me to some people, and my friend Nao came to keep me company and to be a familiar face. And I made a bunch of new friends!
I even got to play catch with some people. such a simple game is so much fun to me. I really miss doing active stuff.
After the bar closed, hung out with some other furs I didn't know, at this point being veeeeeeeeeeeeeeeery drunk (first time I don't know how long whey), and talk art stuff a lot, such lovely people~
Went to Wetherspoons with them and Nao, and we all talked and drunk more til we all had to make a move to get home.
Nao constantly kept asking me if I was gonna be ok getting home xD, silly~ getting home is eaaaasy~
so yes home now, very happy, cand super can't wait for next time!
