Deviation Actions
Guys, seems one of my oldest Fairy Tail pictures just went down for the count, assailed by the policy of dA. (Do any of you even remember how that one looked like at all? I mean, just a naked Juvia on a sea floor, badly drawn too mind you)
And weirdly, I'm unsure if I should laugh instead of feeling even slightly ashamed of it all.
You see, my "Deep in the blue" was removed by dA approximately an hour ago or so, because; A member of staff has reviewed a report concerning this deviation and has determined that the character(s) depicted in a nude, erotic or sexually compromising situation are established as being under the age of 18 in their original context.
Okay, let's do this pointedly. For one, I am not making any excuses for myself. Yes, I drew Juvia Lockser naked - I happen to be very fond of the human body, and enjoy drawing it - and yes, I know it's stated she's a 17 year old fictional character. (For those who're wide-eyed and confused, just look up Fairy Tail)
So that might be an issue for any of you. Not for me, but it's not up to me to decide.
I don't scream at casual nudes. The naked body is as natural as breathing the air, and what is better to use for art than something perfectly 'natural'?
I'm against child porn, not casual nudes.
What makes this look a tad bit humorous to me, is that the character in the picture I made is not a minor. By my country's law, that age's set to 16. And Juvia's 17. I know that differs around the globe, but hey I worked by my constitution's laws, and you can never please every last person.
Either way, that's not the main point. The main point is that it all feels a little hypocritical. On this website, where you needn't even put in a search tag before you find art that I can only deem to be akin to child porn, you choose to target me instead. You take down a picture that despite its nakedness, is all-over rather harmless in comparison.
And I feel the need to say as much. No, I'm not out to whine and cry and demand my picture be restored again. What I want, is for the dA admins to really wake up and smell the smoke, because there are worse "artists" out there for grabs. There are much worse pictures out there, which aims only to be sexual, with no care for anything else. We see stuff that goes against the policy all the time. I've seen it - we've all seen it. Fictional twelve-year old anime girls completely nude with their legs spread. Badly taken camera photos of some user's genitalia in order to get attention. 'Banned fluids' going fricking everywhere in photos as well as drawings.
But I want the line of appropriate to be drawn more prominently. Something less half-hearted. Less contradictive.
That is what I want.

The Eclipse Hiatus
Hi, hello, so yes, it'll be May soon - who woulda thunk, with the way this year's been going...
Ahem anyway, with may comes the dreaded change; Eclipse. Alas, as it stands, I won't be here for that. I'm sorry but I cannot with the change of layout. It just doesn't work the way it is.
Not pulling the profile or the arts down, no worries about that, but there won't be any new works making the rounds. And no presence either, until the time comes where the devs return to their senses and makes this menace of a web "upgrade" more agreeable. :|
Until then, catch me on tumblr; https://onedivinemisfit.tumblr.com/ -- or on pillowfort, same name, sa

About herbs
Good people, just indulge me for a moment. I don't often do this sort of thing, but you could say that sometimes even I get a bit shaken up. But I just gotta ask, and you people have to confirm this little thing for me, okay?
Please tell me you don't believe the Erins about their herbal medicine in Warriors. Please.
I know most of my watchers seem to see the Erins for what they are (charlatans when it comes to cats, to say the least) but I only exist in one corner of the fandom. Like, I know my page/art/opinions doesn't really appeal to the hardcore canon-lovers of this fandom. And a good majority are young kids too, too-young yet to be pro
Cough cough
Nothing big, just here to drop you this little tidbit for ya: Warriors Shipping PSA made by yours truly, my little sweetheart~
Since I made the Firestar family tree, I've noticed an increase in comments regarding the series' inbreeding and cases of incest, which ships are this and that etc. and just... let me put it this way;
You have four -separate- populations, that strive to stay as separate as possible. This has been the case for like, nearly a century, with little no none gene pool input or output.
Trust me at this point, there doesn't exist a SINGLE cat in either of the four - five - clans that ISN'T in any way related to the rest of

Honestly, that's ridiculous.
Also, Andie MacDowell said this:
“I think the human body is beautiful, and I don't really have a huge problem in dealing with it, but it's the context, the environment and what I feel about it that that makes the difference for me.”
Argh, wish nudity wasn't taboo. :/
