OK so I rarely ever get time to be on devArt anymore. And since dA doesn't have an acceptable mobile app that makes uploading really simple all my new stuff gets added to www.wolfes-art.tumblr.com

Why tumblr? Because it's just easier. I get to upload my stuff without all the freaking hassle of fighting with my scanner for proper color balance, then jumping through all the damn steps that dA has. It's an annoyance. Plus I do a lot of traditional crafts nowadays that I actually HAVE to take pictures of and I can upload them straight to tumblr from my phone.

Every once in a blue moon I pop on over to check out notifications from a select few artists and then the rest go unchecked. So it's not like I won't be deleting this account or anything. All my old work will remain up for viewing but no new stuff will be added. I work 6 days a week plus I have dogs, cats, my mom, and housework to to take care of full time so I'm nearly always busy and having a tumblr specifically for my art is just way easier to manage.


Take care, and sorry for the inactivity!

P.S. I'm currently doing a giveaway on my tumblr for those who follow me. I make dream catchers now and there are 3 prizes. First prize is fully custom but of course ya gotta be in it to win is so feel free to follow me if you're the tumblring type. I remember I first set up tumblr when I heard that two of my fave dA artists were switching over because I couldn't bear to /not/ see updates from them.

Hey, everyone!
Due to some pretty suck-ish circumstances I have left this account to gather dust and I felt like you should all know why!!!

When I returned from my first year at college I found out that we had to move (Me, mom, and our pets got out of the state just before Superstorm Sandy devastated our neighborhood though that left both my older siblings and our dad to endure it; that's a story for never because nothing really happened). Anyway, we moved down to a tiny historic town in New Jersey and got set up. It's been quite some time since then, I've yet to return to college due to circumstances that require me to remain at home to care for my mom and our many pets since she is not physically capable of handling them alone, our only computer is in near constant use by my mom who is taking online college courses (and about to get her associates, so hooray for her!!) meaning I have little to no access to the computer or scanner.

Unable to afford a laptop I am left with very very few chances to get online via computer. Which lead me to the necessity of a smartphone! Mostly because my old pantech fell out of my pocket in the rain and I didn't know until about 15 minutes later and by then my durable baby was gone. Much tears. Very sad.

Well, with the newfound freedom of anywhere internet access and mobile apps I of course became engrossed with the tumblr account I had made several months prior. And lo, armed with a 12.6 megapixel phone camera and mobile tumblr app did I create an art blog!! Such convenient. Wow. Very excite.

I'm still adding stuff since I was just posting to my main Tumblr blog (sammiwolfe.tumblr.com) for a while there but there is a lot of stuff there that never made it onto my devArt gallery.

So those with tumblr accounts come one, come all, and follow me over at www.wolfes-art.tumblr.com !!! I do giveaways from time to time when I hit milestone followers (I do a 50 follower and 100 follower; next is at 200) and would love for my dA friends to join me there. I really miss you guys, especially Redfox! Speaking of which, I'm heavily into bone collecting these days and I'd like to say it's all because of you, friend. We bone-collecting tumblr users even formed a little community called "Vulture Culture" and you can even find us on facebook! It's magnificent and I bet you'd love the art some of my friends do with bones!

What's that, you ask? That is a link to a really awesome leather raffle being held by The Screaming North. One of my tumblr followers reblogged it and I was like "woah that's amazing work let me follow this person and WOAH LOOK A GIVEAWAY RAFFLE"

Seriously guys. I don't really post on dA anymore but I wanted to share this here plus it sort of gives me an extra entry in the raffle. Shameless advertising here but hey, I really need a new arrow quiver and can't actually afford one right now so maybe I'll get lucky. (my apologies but I am extremely active on tumblr which is Sammiwolfe because I get almost no time to ever be on the computer anymore since I don't actually own my own computer or laptop. I miss my dA friends and have not forgotten about you, I promise!!!! )

So when I heard that is considering opening up commissions I immediately tried to sign up for PayPal, only to discover that I had, in fact, already made an account. (Yay me for forgetting)

So now I've just made sure that my bank and whatnot is connected to my PayPal in preparation of her final announcement of when she'll start taking commissions, prices, etc.

Guys I am like so stoked. Red's art is fantastic and I can't wait. As long as the price of the commission + price of shipping all the way to Ohio isn't some insane amount then you can bet your ass that I'll be all over that opportunity.

IN OTHER NEWS

I think I still have a few more things that I never got around to posting here on devArt and I'm super sorry for the delay. I also apologize for my lack of activity (see my tumblr page if you want crazy activity).

Recently I figured out the trick to using this new scanner so now I'm considering doing some re-scans of recent uploads (excluding Kenny's birthday image, as that was the first scan using the new settings and is the best quality it can possibly be at the moment) so if I do I'll be sure to keep editing this journal to let you know which ones have been re-scanned and edited.

I haven't been doing a whole lot of drawing lately, but I have been writing. On Tumblr I came across this "Ridiculously Detailed Headcanon Meme" thing sammiwolfe.tumblr.com/post/454… and have been slowly but surely writing out all of the answers for each of my characters [human versions only]. So far I've answered the 49 question meme for Deuce, Rune, Spade, Tyvern, and Mila in that order with more to follow. I really only work on the questions at night, so completely finishing them may take a while. These answers may eventually be posted to my Tumblr sammiwolfe.tumblr.com/ but don't get your hopes up because just writing the answers out is tiring. Instead I may do more of an "inbox me a question number and character name and I'll answer it" type thing so that my followers can just get the answers they want without having to read through EVERY SINGLE ANSWER, especially since some of the answers are suitable for more than one question depending upon the character and stuff like that. *jazz hands*


On a somewhat similar note I plan on submitting some information for you guys in regards to how the human versions of my characters interact as well as how they are related and some inter-personal relationships. I say the HUMAN versions because due to the dual-universe storylines going on in the worlds of my characters there are many differences between the original wolf versions and the later-created human versions. Age and "magical powers" seems to be the biggest differences as well as inter-personal friendships, seeing as how in the human version there's a lot more freedom to add side-characters whereas in the wolf version adding new characters often takes hours upon hours of planning, detailing, and mapping based on the limited range we have to work with.

But anywhoodle, yes, I plan on uploading a more-or-less in-depth look at how the characters are related to each other, how they all live together, and some inter-personal relationship ties that are very important vs characters who may only appear in one universe rather than both universes (such as Spade's sister; in the wolf version he is the only living relative, but in the human version both he and his sister survived the bloodbath).  

Though more likely than not it'll mainly be a bunch of mini family trees including whole names and indications of names that were changed (such as by marriage or other reasoning).

That's all for this update for now, guys!

Feel free to swing by my Tumblr ask box I DO HAVE ANON QUESTIONS ENABLED FOR NON-TUMBLR USERS and request answers to the headcanon meme. If you do so PLEASE word it in THIS format:  "number(s) (whichever) of the Headcanon Meme, (character name/names)" If you want different questions for different characters instead of having all of the selected characters answer all the same questions listed don't hesitate to specify~

The little character relations chart/charts may or may not get uploaded some point within the next two weeks. Idk. It depends on how I feel, if I have the time to do it, and whether or not I deem it understandable to anyone outside of either me or co-creator

I forgot to mention that I now actively use my TUMBLR account.
If you feel like following me for my randomocity please feel free to give a follow to sammiwolfe.tumblr.com/   (note: usually 98% SFW, but some NSFW material does occasionally get posted. It's just very rare when I do post NSFW stuff.)

If you send me a message in my ask box saying who you are here on dA I'll be sure to check ya out.

Awooo~
