I haven't posted on DA in years! You can follow me instead on Twitter and FB, the links are in my bio. I post new works on those sites regularly.


I also have a shop where I'm selling some of my designs, currently only as stickers and notebooks. If you're interested, check it out here! https://sunandstardesigns.com/

I'm 'Star' in the shop and co-own the business with my sister. :)


This will probably be my last journal on DA, so take care, everyone, and hope to see you elsewhere!

The KupoCon fanworks contest is now over and we've selected the winners, who shall be revealed soon. :)

On a personal front I've been busy illustrating, sculpting, and shopping for Christmas. Today I just got a PS4 Slim delivered that I ordered online from the Black Friday sales. AAAAAH YAAAAY :heart: Got a couple games with it too that I'll try out later.
I'm so excited for FFXV to come out :la: AAAAH. But I think I'm going to wait for Christmas to see if anyone buys it for me for a gift. .__. I'm so very tempted to buy it sooner... but if someone gets it for me for Christmas then I don't have to buy it myself :dummy:

In the meantime I've got a busy schedule and two other games to keep me company. :D Also doing a Secret Santa and buying gifts for people this year. Don't have time to make anything really.


Right, time to get back to working on commissions!

Heya everyone,

Have you heard of KupoCon yet, the Final Fantasy fan gathering taking place in Newark and London next year?

KupoCon has launched a fanworks contest in advance of their events with the aim of celebrating all the talented creators out there. You can find all the details at their announcement page on their forum.

You can enter a writing or art category, or both, using the prompts provided. Cash prizes, merchandise, and bonus goods awaits all who enter. Everyone who enters will have their work displayed as well as the chance to spread awareness of their other works, if they wish. Point is, there's a lot of goodies involved for simply entering, and even more if you place in the top three of either category!

You don't even have to be going to enter! Updated note: You don't have to be registered on the forums, either!
Deadline is Oct 31, so start plotting and planning and show the judges what you have to offer! :la:

As a bonus for DeviantArt users, everyone who enters and puts in the name "DeviantArt" when submitting an entry (just include this fact anywhere in the submission email/form), will go into a separate draw to win 5,000 points for their DA account or a ticket to either the Newark or London event. Don't forget to comment below to help gauge interest so we know whether to offer extra point bundles as bonuses.
Updated note:
With the exclusive Deviant Art prize, you don't have to place in the top 3 to have a chance at the bonuses; they're simply bonuses and will only be raffled among those from Deviant Art.

Also, I'm one of the judges for the fanart category. So don't be shy, come on and enter! I hope to see a lot of entries! :love:

If you have any questions go right ahead and ask! :)

It's about time I wrote something different here. :rofl:

An update on the children's book I'm illustrating: It's coming along fairly quickly now and getting close to being finished! I had problems with procrastination last year and the beginning of this year, largely due to not having any deadlines for this book to be finished. When I don't have a deadline, I tend to procrastinate. >.< I'm slowly getting better at not doing that. I've also set myself my own personal deadline (the beginning of July) to finish this book.

On the clay front: I've gotten several commissions since my last journal post (as seen by my gallery); not super frequent but coming in here and there. I'm really a bit giddy to have gotten several commissions from online now. :blush: And international orders as well! I hope by the end of the year the commissions are more frequent; that would be awesome. :love:

Those are basically the two things I'm doing right now. Clay commissions and spending most of my drawing time on the children's book. I can't wait to finish the book; it's looking really good and getting me all excited. :la:

Anyways, that's all for now. Keeping it 'short and sweet'. :giggle:

Lately, I've been catching up with my sculpting commissions at last. :happybounce:  Yay! :XD: I only have a few mini charms to sculpt and a realistic small rattlesnake, so I feel relieved to have pretty much caught up. One of the mini charms is for a lovely person in the UK; it's my first international commission! :blush:
Mini charms are usually pretty quick to make, but due to the potentially fragile nature of the clay, I've been spending more time working on the armatures to make them more durable. I'm getting better at it; I want to ensure that each charm, keychain, and sculpture I create is as durable as it can be, even if it takes me twice the amount of time to make, it's worth it. I want my creations to be durable! And I want people to be satisfied with them too. Of course, no matter how much wire and foil is inside a sculpture, the clay could still chip if dropped or banged on hard surfaces, but that's a natural risk that I can't fix.

Meanwhile, I'm still at work on illustrating the children's book. I'm on the 5th page, and there's going to be about 15 pages overall I believe (too lazy to check right now). I'm hoping to finish it up within the next few months. After this page, I've been able to have all the rest except for the last one sketched out and panned with the author, so starting on the 6th page things should go quite a lot faster! Half the time is getting the sketches to align with the author's vision, because we contact each other by email; so when I do a sketch, I have to send it to her and wait for her reply before continuing with it.
In one case, I finished the 4th page, and after she looked at it, she wanted a major change in the layout, which added a lot more time to it. The change made the illustration look a lot better and I'm super happy with it, but it does take time to do this.
This is my first book illustrating project, and it's very exciting and promising. I feel that once it's all finished, it'll help get my name out there a lot, and by having some experience like this under my belt, more people will be inclined to commission/hire me for big projects like this. :love:

Anyway, that's all so far! :D I'm thinking it's about time for a good cup of evening coffee, and then time to get back to sketching!
