Since I’m coming to terms about leaving Tumblr.

I want to make sure this info is easy for people to find:
Please ask me for permission before posting my art anywhere, okay?

And don’t edit my works, don’t write text on it, don’t use it out of context without my permission.
Thank you :3

I’m not posting my recent works here on my tumblr anymore, at least for now.

hello, I’ve not updated this place in a long while, but I’ve been updating my blogger again. Truth is I just… don’t like tumblr much. The reason that makes me not want to leave is that this is the only way to follow some artists I like.

But I can’t get used to it. The reblogging is stil confusing, hard to follow and I still find it weird. The lack of a commenting system (yes you can install Disqus but it doesn’t replace the reblogs etc, so it looks confusing on the page) doesn’t make sense to me. The looking through tags thing is not something that really interests me.

The culture of taking someone’s pictures and sharing them without asking for permission, it bothers me. I’ve found my art being posted around even though people could have clicked on the link to my own tumblr and reblog my pictures from there. I was not asked for permission even though I have messages up on my DA and blogger asking people to ask me for permission before using my pics. Yes I know this isn’t exclusive to tumblr, but the mentality of sharing anything virally here concerns me, specially when there are tumblrs that add text on top of your picture and etc with no permission (like art confession tumblrs). This is not okay to me.

The way it’s dominated by fandom (yup, I don’t like fandom *gasp*), british actors, and social justice warriors just makes me feel umcorfortable here, out of touch. The constant stream of random posts… I try to follow only artists but still get tons of things I’m not interested in looking at and there’s no way to filter it from the dashboard. The self-righteousness, the policing of others and of everything. When I think of this place, it is not a place I want to belong to. I’d call it overrated, overhyped. No offense intended but I’m sure some people will be offended if they read this. Sorry.


I guess I was and still am taken by the way everyone is on tumblr nowadays. Kind of like how everyone is on facebook, but tumblr is for the cool hip quirky people. So I joined too, I liked the custom themes I found, but lately I’ve been pondering about posting only fanart here or not posting at all anymore. I’m not leaving completely because of the blogs I follow and I’m still not sure about this.
Only a small handful of people follow me but I felt like I should write this anyway in the rare case anyone wanders in here.

I have a similar feeling here to what made me leave Tegaki as well, like… irreconcilable differences.

If anyone wants to see my latest artsys things please check my DA (Spielodia) and my blogspot (CadeaBorracha) for now.
Also, doesn’t hurt to say again, ask me for permission if you’re going to post my art okay? That would be super fine from you and you’d make me happy. I have share buttons up everywhere but it doesn’t mean I don’t want to be asked for permission. Ideally, you ask me for permission, I (most likely) give it to you, you then use the share button to repost it easily with a link to me automatically.

It is not that I don’t want people to share my work, I really do, but I want to have some kind of control over it, that’s why having permission first is important.

re-reblogging again cause my art :P
and cause I couldn’t make text work the first time (or the second. Or the third). I hate tumblr.

BECAUSE IT’S STILL SHAKARIAN SUNDAY ON THE WEST COAST

Finally decided to scan something… sketches made a week ago, ball-point pen and pencils. Got a new monitor today :)
Here’s the full post

I was going to post this as the start of my Tanya spam on my sketchblog but I am still not sure on the policy of posting sketches that aren’t my own on there. I’ve done it before because I like going, “hey look at my characters! You’ll see them on this blog a lot!” But it seems a little deceiving.

My friend drew this for me. I think it was an art trade but either way it is beautiful.

<3 well, I’m really flattered you posted it. Though zomg I drew bad.

Reblogging my own art again XD I found it cause I had noticed russian people using my fanarts all over some forums before, and decided to look for my deviantart name on google again. Lol. Why didn’t anyone just reblog it from the tumblr address I put on the pic I don’t know. Here’s where I posted it: http://elciled.tumblr.com/post/10514210763/i-swear-i-will-stop-this-im-just-trying-to

Does it get any mushier by Spielodia

Equally as obsessed with Femshep X Garrus as I am Snape and Lily. Oh the fangirling.

Kissu by Spielodia

All these Garrus/Femshep fanarts are amazing <3  I don’t think I’ve found one yet that I don’t like :3  Sexy kissing!

I know I say no reblogs, but this is my own art… I’m so happy to accidentally find someone liked it enough to post it here and then people reblogged it T_T (was browsing some GarrusxShep tags) I knew turians could kiss (TONGUESlol).

Feels so awkward posting (even looking at) my er, sexy times arts XD but I’ve been obsessing about these two since ME2 came out… it died down a little after I got sorta mad at fandom.

With ME3 I might have inspiration to finally draw those fanarts I’ve always wanted to, even if it means I have to head-canon like 60% of this game because I just don’t like a lot of things about it. I hate angst.

And god my anatomy and proportion, light source on this… everything needs to get better (I kinda liked the sketch better).

(no she’s not asian, lol)

Just a christmas “reindeer” (very loosely.. I found out during this that xmas reindeers are much closer to a deer) for a publication back in december that didn’t happen

Character by http://seppukuaddict.deviantart.com/

More old tegaki stuff

try for a job…

In times of terrible art-blocks, messy but likeable sketches are kings…?

Just a pretty old Tegaki pic of my Neverwinter Nights character Tinde Signe, a “playful” elf lady ranger who carried a one handed sword bigger than her in Hordes of The Underdark (and who happens to look very androgynous here)

I’ve noticed sometimes I get too lazy to write a link/watermark thing to my pics but SOMEHOW… I think I don’t need to worry about art theft much.

Oh and thank you celestialmayhem, I did sketch with pencil before hand, it doesn’t go well with markers but if you do it lightly it’s not a problem :) (wish I knew if there was a way to reply on this site)

First time using markers, so many mistakes but me ish happeh.

Tumblr is being CA-RAZY, telling me I have 10 notes and stuff and when I look I have like 3 actually, then I look again I have 0. WHAT. A lot of the people who do leave notes/likes etc, when I go look at their pages they are EMPTY and some even use THE SAME PHOTO, I think fake users are fake?

Anyway, JIVES THANK YOU FOR STILL EXISTING TvT and I hope you don’t hate me if I don’t follow your tumblr but I’m trying to keep my dash art only, however I could make a different account to follow everyone I like, the reblogging thing on tumblr confuses me still and everyone blogs/reblogs so many gifs/memes/stuff I am overwhelmed

PS sketch of Iselae, my main Dalish Elf from DAO (old art here) done after freelance work, for no reason (to get out of art block). It helped a bit I guess.

I’m becoming friends with Photoshop for the first time really, after editing my tablet settings with the help of this thread: http://www.polycount.com/forum/showthread.php?t=77043

This is silly but I think I’m gonna tag my PCs (playable characters) as fanart AND original, I don’t think they fit with just fanart…

Working on stuff… messy

not sure of tag

Just wanted to thank Ettudis (should I call her that?), the theme creator for answering my endless questions about tumblr/code. <3 So there’s a bunch of stuff I still don’t like and I prefer blogger, but I’ll be posting more stuff here.

Tumblr still resizes SOME of my images but not all of them, I don’t get that. Anyway, annoying.

I swear I will stop this. I’m just trying to finish the ME2 meme since FOREVER and I’m in the middle of a really bad art block thing (I’m completely unsatisfied, I don’t know which way I wanna draw, my OCs are in limbo, etc).

There’s just two more panels with them for the meme >_> I promise I’ll draw something not Mass Effect soon.

To get out of this blurgh art block I need to draw to please myself again. I feel like I’m worrying too much about what other people will think, and comparing myself too much to other people. It’s confusing me and fucking up my self esteem. I need to stop looking at so much art all the time and stop “thinking” about the art process for a little bit. I feel like I don’t know my own art anymore, like I’m doing it all wrong and I don’t recognize anything and nothing feels like “me”, but has it ever õ_O
