Hey guys! I know it's been a really long time. I kinda left you guys in the dark without saying good bye, and for that I apologize. I hope that with it being the summer time and all I should have more time to upload my drawings! Although I already decided that I'm not going to be an art major like I thought I would be for a long while, I still want to draw as a hobby and keep it in my life as long as I can. I should have the project I've been working on for a while done today or tomorrow, so look forward to that!
I'm also doing a little self promo of my adoptable account, :icondangoadoptables: The only adoptables up there are adoptables that I purchased and decided to resell because they were barely drawn if drawn at all. But, I am also working on some adoptables to upload there. I know my past adoptables haven't been the greatest, I have been making some improvements that I'm hoping will show in my next batch of adoptables. Stay tuned! 

Also thanks for the birthday wishes! I know I'm four months late but better late than never! :) 

EDIT: Hey guys, really sorry for the delay. Things came up today and I didn't have nearly as much time to work on the drawing I promised as I thought I would. Tomorrow I promise it will be done and uploaded. :)

One more time! Finishing the trumpet and fixing other details. Really hoping I can stay on task and finish this tonight!
EDIT: Sorry friends. I'm tired beyond belief and still have a bunch of things to fix. It seems like no matter what, I find a major flaw that needs to be fixed. I have a really busy week ahead of me but I'll try to get it done soon!!

I'm so sorry, it's been way too long. x.x 
Band has been taking up a lot of my time, but I'm really going to try and focus on both tasks and find a balance between them. I've been working really hard at improving on the trumpet and spending most of my time practicing. At first, I was certain that trumpet was more important to me, but now I'm certain that I can do both. 
I've also had quite an art block over the months though. I haven't really been finishing anything. Nothing I've been drawing has been good enough to submit here, but I'm really trying to get back on track and finish this piece. 
I've set up a new years resolution to start uploading one drawing a week again, so I'm hoping I can find a schedule like that! 

Also I got a name change which was a spur of the moment decision really. But I felt that Cindershine wasn't too pleasing of a name to me. I've always loved the anime Clannad and I've always had a mini obsession with the dango family. I just loved surrounding myself with friends and family and being able to think of them as my dango family, and I want that feeling here. :icondangoplz: 
Anyways, how have you guys been? Any new years resolutions? :D

EDIT:
Honestly haven't really been getting many commissions, just a couple of private ones. I just want to let you guys know these will only be open for a week or two more, then they'll be closed. I understand my art isn't the most desirable thing so I try not to be too annoying about when I bump this though.

Headshots: 
Unshaded sketch: 1.50$/120 points
Slightly shaded with line art: 3$/240 points 
(I don't really have any examples of the sketches or the slightly shaded line art but what I mean by slightly shaded is I'll shade it but it won't be too detailed.)
Fully shaded without line art: 4.50$/360 points
Please note, this will be in my realistic style unless said otherwise. I can experiment and try a different style though if ya want! c: 

Examples: 
Sonia by Big-Dango-Family  Dog days by Big-Dango-Family

Waist ups:
Unshaded sketch: 2.50$/200 points
Slightly shaded with line art: 5.50$/440 points
Fully shaded without line art : 7.50$/600 points

Examples:
Violence solves everything by Big-Dango-Family  Isaeda (Set price) by Big-Dango-Family

Animals:
I'm not too great with animals yet but I am working on it and as time goes by I'll get a lot better, so for now the prices will be cheap.
I can try my hand with any animal but I'm mostly comfortable with felines, canines, and ponies.
Sketches: 1$/80 points
Slightly shaded line art: 1.75$/140 points
Fully shaded: 2.50$/200 points

Examples:
Honeydew by Big-Dango-Family  Forest Hike (Commission) by Big-Dango-Family  Clyde by Big-Dango-Family  wolfie by Big-Dango-Family

Please note me for details if you're interested! :> and if you decide to commission me, please have a reference available. c:

hi friends

2 min read
sorry for my couple day short period of inactivity 
my band director dropped a bomb monday
we had 2 days left of school, monday and tuesday. on monday we had school periods 1-4 and 1st hour was wind ensemble (which is the kind of advanced marching band class)
yeah but.. my band director is moving to a different state. :/ i won't reveal what state but it's soo sad 
i heard most of the kids in wind ensemble were crying 
it's so sad
he'll stay until july but commencement (which is what the wind ensemble performed in for the senior's graduation) was his last performance. 
yeah but i have a lot of mixed emotions. i'm really going to miss him and i really wanted to make him proud of me (though he already said he was proud of me before) and i really wanted to see him til the end of my senior year.
i always thought stuff like "man it's going to suck for the people that have to see him retire, thankfully he'll be here all through my high school years" 
but guess what
he's leaving so jokes on me, i'm the people that has to deal with that
but at the same time i know the marching season will still be in good hands because we still have the brass instructor and the percussion director/assistant band director 
idk i'm not in too much of a ranting mood and idk i don't have too much on the topic but it was really sad when he announced he was going to be leaving
