Hello May 🐝 | Etsy, Art status, delays
Posted 12 days agoI can't believe how fast time flies recently, phew!
April has been a bit hectic. Not only the rapid weather changes made me rather sicklish, but a bunch of chronic pains have really flared up, making it difficult to focus on anything, or even sit out whole day in my workplace chair. On a good note one of the doctors finally managed to push some connection strings and in 3rd week of May I got a date with a speciallist to hopefully get a diagnose. It's connected with my "female parts" and recently more often than not I wish I could just pluck out my uterus without consequences.
Art status
I finished the artwork for , and art for is almost done.
I am currently laying foundations for illustration for as well as speedpaints for , and .
I will be gone on a close friends wedding from 8th to 13th May. When i come back I have the doctor visits, hope they won't interefere too much with work tho.
By the end of May I want the speedpaints to be finished , and the illustration either finished or in final stage.
As for people who were scheduled for May and June, things will move by one month again. BUT! At the end of May I will look back on what stage everything and how my health stands, and then decide if queue goes as originally planned or if I will move around some projects. I will send respective emails and keep everyone updated!
Etsy shenanigans
As you probably noticed, I finally have finallized setting up my Etsy shop! (here a small reminder there is a -20% launch sale ending tommorrow)
Those more observant may have noticed that the shop account was established already....in 2022. Figuring out all the laws around selling (packaging waste tax my beloved) and finding time to actually set up the listings was a very very long adventure for me, and I'm really happy it reached the finish! Now I can slowly polish the whole thing, make more better photos and slowly start adding more products.
BIG THANK YOU to first 6 folks who bought something from me :D Packages are dispatched and hopefully they reach you asap!
And that's it for now, see you in next journal!

[[NEWS]]
Considering I always fail to make my openings in the same time intervals, I would like to try a bit different approach than my peers and test a new way:
Introducing the waiting list
From now on any person whose project got accepted but did not fit into the “nearest future” queue will be put on the waiting list. The moment I’m done with the initial queue, the waiting list people will have priority.
- Waiting list, queue and all progress can be followed on my Trello page: https://trello.com/b/o10MtNzM/anoro.....sions-and-more
- You don’t have to wait forever for my “opening window” - just shoot me an email if you are interested in the project and I will give you an initial quote and start estimate. You can join the waiting list anytime, and I’ll do my best to give you an estimate of the waiting time.
- Waiting list is basically queue that is not paid yet. You don’t have to pay anything to “reserve” a slot in the list. Once I’m getting close to finish current batch I will contact you and make interest check if you would still like the slot.
Embracing that I’m a slug
It’s not really a revelation, but more of loud thinking of sorts. Whenever I say I’m ready to take a new project on and don’t sprout a sketch in a week I get extremely anxious. And the anxiety makes me take even more time to draw something because I’m stressed xD I have realised, that I can’t always provide a sketch immediately because that’s just how my workflow goes. I usually make bigger artworks. Some pieces need a longer planning time (aka pondering the orb, how do I approach it? What assets should I use for the 3D sketch? etc.) And the more planning is made, the smoother process is later. Sometimes I’ll have an idea immediately, sometimes I need to go touch the grass to get inspiration/ problem-solve a certain piece. Thus for my own sanity I would like to state that even if I don’t sprout a rough thumbnail from my sleeve right after payment is done, I am indeed working on the piece. Sometimes I’m pondering the next project while rendering another one xD I’d say please give me around a month for the initial “sketching”.
My turnaround times usually span between 1-3 months, up to 5-6 months in most extreme cases (eg. going to a con and catching corona and being sick for 2 months in the meantime). I am slow but I’m working on it. I wish I could be quicker, but I can’t jump over my physical capabilities, especially with my ADHD like attention span. I also do not have any agents or anyone who can take over my job for me - and amount of work my partner can help me with is very limited. I do 90% of things alone. Talking, planning, printing, drawing, painting, management, posting on social media, PR, figuring out tax laws, planning conventions, preparing the shop, etc. etc. and I still need to have a life inbetween all this - take care of the house, pets, cook myself a meal.
So yeah, I work slowly but steadily. I’M SORRY I’M A SLUG (just needed to say it out loud >< )
(btw please don’t be scared to write to me and ask how things go, I’m a very contactable person. 👀 )
And that is also why I’m introducing the waiting list. Sometimes the projects get prolonged not even because I take long time, but sometimes clients themselves reply only after 2 weeks and then my whole queue moves around and I need to add this to planning too. With every piece having different delivery time I need to juggle the projects and I feel like a waiting list will make things more easier for me, than the pompous “openings”. I will of course announce comms from time to time but that's it, you can just send me an email, seriously. Poke me anytime. I will announce an “opening” whenever my list gets thin.
Reminder that I post my WIPS publicly now!
I do post the WIPs regularly now on my Telegram art channel and Discord server, links below:
Telegram Channel: https://t.me/artbyanoroth
Discord Community: https://discord.gg/anoroth-fishtank
(it's very active, so don't be surprised if multiple people suddenly say hello to you)
I also stream regularly on Picarto: https://picarto.tv/Anoroth with my friends!
NordicFuzzCon is coming soon!
I will be dealing at RedIzak's table in Dealer's Den at this years NFC! Come meet me 21-25 February 2024 in Malmö, Sweden :D I will have new neck pillows, more big playmats and also some smaller sized mousepads due to popular demand. Also a new "Nugget" sticker bundle 👀 There will be also the regular prints and a few limited canvases in their Creative Expose! Don't be shy and say hi :D

Hello 2024! Changes, no more paywall, comm opening date
Posted 4 months agoHello in 2024 everyone!
2023 has been full of challenges, and 2024 will have even more of them.
CHANGES and PLANS
- No more paywall, I have closed my Patreon page!
Why, you ask? I am not fond of how Patreon works as a page, and it's recent redesign made it even worse. I am also not happy how corporate it has become. As the oldest of my Patrons know well, the amount of time and content I could create for Patty has really shrunk overtime. I limited it to a minimal tier, but I don't want to keep posting or supporting this website anymore. I would like to free my wips from the paywall too.
If you'd like to support feesh with a tip, my Ko-Fi is always open: https://ko-fi.com/anoroth
-If not Patreon,then what?
If I ever decide to open a subscription-based page again, I will rather do it on my Ko-FI . Would be cool to open up some physical item tiers, or a monthly Patron voted fanart which would be a mini-print as well. I got ideas and plans, but first I need to rest and take my time to prepare them.
-WIPS will be now public, and uploaded regularly on my Telegram Channel and Discord Community! Also social media from time to time
Like in title :D Be sure to join to be up to date:
Telegram Channel: https://t.me/artbyanoroth
Discord Community: https://discord.gg/anoroth-fishtank (warning! it's very active, so don't be suprised if multiple people suddenly say hello to you heheh)
-What about the hi-res files?
I know there are big file enjoyers out there who will be sad to see them gone. I think I'll either make separate art packs for one-time purchase on Kofi, or a general one-time donation page. I'm not sure about it which way to do it yet, we will see!
-Ano, where the fuck is Etsy
I'm so sorry I keep postponing it, but whenever launch date is moved I still keep nibbling on topics surrounding it. ;w; The tax laws, carton licenses and whatnot have really been keeping me awake at night. All beurocracy things should be behind me though and now I'm just waiting for the items to add there.
I definitely want to launch the shop in 2024.
Current plan is:
January: NordicFuzzCon preparations, ordering the goods and making new designs,
February: selling in DD at NFC,
March: using the earned money at the con for new products, finalise and launch the shop
-New years resolution: focus on reducing stress levels and recovering health, while continuing to develop both art and merch
Being a one-man-army has not been easy for me. I am very happy that I managed to expand my booth offer so much in 2023, but I've been stressing over literally everything SO MUCH, it has taken a toll on my physical health. I might have gluten intolerance triggered by stress and I can def tell you it's not fun : D
WHEN COMM OPENING
1st February 2024!
WILL ANYTHING CHANGE FOR COMMS?
Only the opening rules. Considering how random dates my comm openings have, I would like to reinvent how I do those and introduce a waiting list. Meaning, you can sign up for a comm from me basically anytime. Send me your idea and I'll tell you if I can do it and put you on the list. The waiting list queue will be public on my Trello. People who are on the list will be the first ones to be asked if they want the next slot once I finish something.
I will update my "algorithm" and rules accordingly and make a separate journal about it, because I'm still figuring things out!
And that's it for now, See you around on streams and in future uploads!

End of the year update + xmas break
Posted 5 months agoTommorrow (17th December) I'm leaving for an xmas break! I haven't visited my motherland - Poland - in many months and all family is starved of my presence. I'll have a bit crazy roadtrip where I'll visit each part of family for 3-4 days and I'll be back after New Years Eve, in January!
I have crunched like crazy to finish off as much as I can before I leave. The collaboration with deviantedcreature is basically done, crit is just adding some final polish on characters and it will be ready to publish ^^ I got 2 illustrations in making for McFan and for Wehf, both are in rendering phase and will be finished once I return. Dragoniade refsheet has been followed to Mir for linearting and will also be finalised in January. The big server group art project has been planned completely and all 23 characters have been arranged in Blender and piece is ready to be continued. PHEW, that one was sure A LOT of work!!
Many peeps keep asking me when next commission opening will be, I'll give more information in January, but most likely end of January/February! I will have to plan out how much time before i give exact dates.
One thing for sure I would love to make more artworks with some fun interactions, might start making YCHs along some pretty landscapes. This year I managed to unlock myself from a years long art block connected with sketchbooks and traditional art and I'm really excited to make some random doodles in sketchbook again. Also finally got back to personal art and doodling long forgotten OCs.
2024 will be a very busy year for me, one which I would love to fill with more convention presence as a dealer. I already have some new product ideas I'd love to make and hopefully I can bring everything to action.
Hope you all have good holidays and a good rest and may 2024 bring you only good things!! See you in January!

Yes to DD table at NordicFuzzCon after all!
Posted 5 months agoLike in title, I will be in the NordicFuzzCon 2024 Dealer's Den after all! My bro red-izak will share his double table with me Thank you again AAA
Since I'll be +1 on Izak's table due to how NFC is organised this year the additional dealer's won't be on the official map, because the first one is already in print. But I'll be there :3 Will post the map and such where to find me as soon as it's public!

No DD table at NordicFuzzCon
Posted 6 months agoSadly I did not get the DD table.
Will have to think on my attendance because the costs are very high for me
EDIT: I might actually try to grab an Artist Alley table and squueze in there. The AA tables are incredibly tiny, but I'm a fighter not a quitter.
Table setup idea: https://x.com/anoroth_art/status/17.....554142608?s=20
xD yolo

I'm coming to NordicFuzzCon 2024!
Posted 7 months agoI managed to snag a room and reg for NFC 2024 in Malmö, Sweden !! :D Now all that’s left is a Dealer’s Den application, keep fingers crossed!
Covid is gone
Posted 7 months agoI recovered!!!! :D Feels so good to finally be ok.
Work on commissions will resume tommorrow!
As a reminder:
- I will finish the queue I have first.
- Work might be a tad slower due to post-covid struggles, please bear with me!
- The commission opening is moved to when I'm done, hopefully November.
- When November comes I'll either open comms or try my hand in some autumn/winter themed YCHs! I'll keep you updated!

AUTUMN UPDATES | Covid defeated but im still sick
Posted 8 months agoHello folks! Sorry for being silent and off social media but the covid really wrecked me good.
I was corona'd for 2 weeks straight. Now since few days my tests are finally negative, but the symptomes are not completely gone ;/ While kinda recovered, I'm still dealing with some leftover runny nose, cough and the dreadful throbbing headpain. The pain is in the sinus area so I suspect it's all connected, going to doctor tommorrow and hopefully he helps me get out of it, because simply "laying it out" doesn't work anymore. The headpain is most annoying because sometimes I just sit with a cold pack on my forehead and can't do anything : D Even the light outside hurts me in the brain, and if I lean forward/down I get dizzy.
I'm generally craving to get back to work especially that everything is piling up, but can't do when my brain is committing seppuku. I'm giving myself a few more days and I hope I can get back to the game once the sinus head pains are sorted out. Overall I'm still going through the whole infection better than last time but man I wish I was one of the lucky guys who go through it like a slight cold!
But yeah, coming to the updates on important matters:
-> I will be slowly coming back to workand go through my queue first.
-> There was supposed to be a commission opening this month, due to obvious reasons it will be moved to when I'm done with the current queue. Hopefully I can open in November, or maybe make some winter YCHs for the occasion!
-> My Discord Server community came out with an initiative to commission me for a big server artwork. I have taken the challenge but still waiting to get 100% healthy and operative to sort out what how and when. Need all the strength for such a huge piece xD If I do start making it it will of course influence the amount of time I have for new projects, that's why I'm not giving any exact dates for the opening.
-> The Etsy shop: I will do my best to add what I have in stock as listings for October, so the shop is finally up and running. Due to obvious reasons I didn't get a chance to order new stock. I think I'll make a preorder via google forms once I have the designs ready and once I have a list of what people want I'll make the order in bulk. It will contain the IRL photos of the items of course so if you missed out on something I had at EF or it was out of stock, it will be there! I'll keep you updated!
Hope you peeps are healthy and hopefully see you soon on streams!

-> I will be slowly coming back to workand go through my queue first.
-> There was supposed to be a commission opening this month, due to obvious reasons it will be moved to when I'm done with the current queue. Hopefully I can open in November, or maybe make some winter YCHs for the occasion!
-> My Discord Server community came out with an initiative to commission me for a big server artwork. I have taken the challenge but still waiting to get 100% healthy and operative to sort out what how and when. Need all the strength for such a huge piece xD If I do start making it it will of course influence the amount of time I have for new projects, that's why I'm not giving any exact dates for the opening.
-> The Etsy shop: I will do my best to add what I have in stock as listings for October, so the shop is finally up and running. Due to obvious reasons I didn't get a chance to order new stock. I think I'll make a preorder via google forms once I have the designs ready and once I have a list of what people want I'll make the order in bulk. It will contain the IRL photos of the items of course so if you missed out on something I had at EF or it was out of stock, it will be there! I'll keep you updated!
Hope you peeps are healthy and hopefully see you soon on streams!
Back from EF ✨ CCH rocks, corona socks
Posted 8 months agoI am back from EF and I had a blast!!! I loved meeting and talking with all the peeps :D Big THANK YOU to everyone who came to my booth be it for a chat or bought the goods. I'm so happy you like my art 😭
Thanks to you raiding my booth and adopting all the epic mousepads and cute pillows I can finally buy a new tablet and a proper ergonomic chair. I can't wait to art on the new thing. The old Wacom Intuos Pro L is so used up it started cutting out the lines in random places while I make a stroke. Wacom quality dropped so low over the years it's insane. The new one coming in mail is Huion Kamvas Pro 24 (4k) model ^^ Excited!!!!!
I slept short, partied long, talked about life in the kitchen even longer... and really recharged my social batteries. New EF venue is amazing. CCH >>> long long nothing >>> Estrel. Seriously. The area is beautiful, lot's of great food nearby, many BNBs and hotels, very tolerant and curious locals. The CCH workers were great too xD You won't miss Estrel once you see the EF in CCH.
Big shoutout to the volunteers organising the whole event, you are true MVP.
Sadly while being weakened from overwork and not sleeping properly someone sold me a corona infection :'D I hope I can recover from it swiftly, sorry for any further delays in commissions q-q Will get back to work as soon as I can.
And just like promised at the con itself, my Etsy is basically ready to go live. All I need to do is restock after EF (and I need to order a lot! thanks again!!). If you missed the con or the design you wanted was sold out, in October 2023 it should be available to order! Might make a neck-pillow YCH too, we shall see 👀 If there is anything you'd like to get as a print or merch feel free to poke me!
So yeah, I'm going back to bed xD Hope I didn't pass the viruses to anyone ><

If not Twitter, then what? [let's discuss social media!]
Posted a year agoI have been trying to stay away from all the doomposting about how Twitter is dying for 2345678 time, but man one can really tell reach got completely cut since recent updates. I do enjoy Twitter as a platform in general but since you know who started playing with it all went to garbage. I don't feel like paying a subscription to have a dying website die a little less on me xD Kinda sucks because I felt like I finally started to build some following there :(
So, with the current degradation of social media, where do you think one should start posting?
Should I update Instagram more often now and try to play into it's algorithms?
Do you think some other platform is better? Where do folks sit and scroll now?
Or maybe we all should just wait it out?
What's your opinion folks?
