You fellas can call me Superslick.
I'm into art, and I'll be showcasing most of my crap here. You have yourselves a good look, and if you'd like to, watch/fave/comment away! Those make my day. 8D

First of all; thanks for all the nice comments guys!
Secondly; I'm sorry about the occasional vanishings - or at this point, should I rather call them occasional resurfacings? I'd like to thank all the wonderful people who're always very patient and unbelievably nice to me about it - I know it's annoying, so you guys rock.
I tend to keep pretty vague about my personal life, let alone about my person at all - but I feel I probably oughta explain some things about it. ^^;
Where I'm currently living is not the country I was raised in, annnd it's a little tough communicating with the locals. I moved here with family - and the move wasn't exactly something I was given too much say in.
Due to domestic issues, my stress was constantly set at unhealthy levels, eventually beginning to have adverse effects on my physical health, alongside my mental health. Stomach ulcers, skin conditions, weakened immune system, headaches, and (most catastrophically!) an increase in weight gain, which I'm working to get back under my control - at the very least, those were the main offenders.
The very first time I "vanished" was during this time. High levels of stress coming from just about everywhere was a bit of a heavy load on my mind and I just shut down. Didn't talk to most close friends, barely went online, and in general just shutting myself off from everyone and everything. It was a huge inconvenience to a few people, and I was (and still am!) very sorry for that. I think I was suffering a full blown anxiety attack and mental breakdown, though, and there was little choice but to give myself a lot of space and some room to breathe. A furry artist going nuts - who'da thunk it? :P
So, my family left, leaving me alone in the country. While it was a struggle to keep on my feet, I've kept managing to. My second AWOL period happened while I was on my own for the first time and struggling to keep my shit together. I recall it happened for a much shorter time than the first. I was still a bit fragile, but adjusting.
Basically, the pattern was that when things stress me out to a certain extent, and certain responsibilities or commitments or events crush my psyche sufficiently, I shut down for a while. It sounds lousy and weak, but I was in a bad place, and it wrecked my mind, and the going is slow. For the record, in case anyone misinterprets, the majority of these things are in my day to day, not online. Frequently, the AWOL periods happen when I get sick (lowered immune system, see above), find it hard to keep up with my responsibilities, things pile up, and shit becomes a domino reaction made of suck and fuckery.
I'm doing better now, thankfully. The more time that passes since my family left, the more I find my tolerance threshold growing. My periods of absence, when they occur, are getting briefer as well. I suppose that last time, I was a touch too optimistic about staying. My bad, guys!
TL;DR, I go AWOL when I have psychotic breakdowns or anxiety attacks. So, I hope this clears some things up!
So, I recently took care of some heavy financial burdens that have been REALLY stressing me out, and I'm caught up on art, too. Got one left to finish, but this one's a really busy piece that I've had to start over a few times. I think I'm going to dabble in 3D rendering again, as it's technology-laden and rather detailed. Also have a wonderful partner here to help me out with the day-to-day. Overall, I'd say things are going great. Despite doing a bit roughly financially (after having taken care of the above-stated business) I have this strange feeling of freedom that I haven't felt in a number of years.
I think I'll definitely be streaming soon, too. I think some live contact with people who speak my language might help me out with some lingering issues with anxiety. It'd certainly help out on the boredom/loneliness front! :)
Also, I've been reviewing my prices, and fixed some glaring problems with my commission rates. You can find the new list HERE. So if any of you guys are curious about whether or not I'm open - yes, I am. Feel free to drop me a message - you'll be helping me make my rent! :)
Thanks for reading, guys! Hope you all have been doing great while I was out.
