Valid choice, I'd give it a solid 7/10

That's so valid tho, at my uni we have a t-rex skull out in our ACLC building, just sitting on the ground for people to look at and touch lmao. We also have a massive turtle skeleton in our museum which I find so cool

Yeah, I'm apart of the college of Ag so kids used to go up to it and rub it's nose for good luck before football games, can't let our team lose ;)

Yeah, it's really weird and kind of embarrassing so I have no idea why I told you XD

Yeah I went to sleep under a coffee table that same night.

It's definitely cool! Though, at heart I'm still more of a geology and paleontology person. Give me my rocks and fossils holy fuck - some of those come to uni with my LOL.

Also that's pretty cute! Moose as big as hell, god damn.

Haha, fair enough.

Oh, huh. I guess I have that piece of lore now, that's fair enough. I'm pretty sure someone was telling me they did the same thing recently, so you're not alone!

Lmao, too shit faced? XD

That's awesome, I mean technically mine are at my home too, gotta love college. It 100% is an art and a beautiful thing, honoring the animal that gave its life too. At my college we have a moose head that's fallen into disarray, well-loved though, it's considered to be a good luck charm.

Lmao, am I proud of it? No, do I need references and facts for things? Yeah, kinda XD

Yeah, this has bothered me since I was little so (No one outside of my family knows this XD) I still use kids toothpaste because it's sadly the only one I can stand. I wish they made other flavors, but mint is pretty much it unless you go hunting on amazon

Sounds good, have fun!

I was absolutely trollied, I did not feel it one bit.

That'd be super cool! :0 I have a few skulls and a few other miscellaneous bones - though I've not expanded my collection in a while as well,, I've been at uni and the skulls stay at home haha.
Preservation and taxidermy is definitely an art form.

Yeah, I'm not about that LMAO

Oh, hm, that's interesting. Have you ever tried non mint flavoured/scented tooth paste-?

And sure, I'm pretty busy today, but at the end of the day let me know if you still need a hand haha, I'm sure you'll probably figure something out in the meantime!

XD That's great, must've sucked in the moment though XD

I have some bones I extracted from owl pellets in a bag in my room that I'd love to turn into art. I think that's so cool, death and stuff like that can be really beautiful if you look at it in the right way :3

That's fair, I'm probably on a few watch lists XD

It's not so much the brushing part but the smell and spitting out part, I find it disgusting. I also can't stand the smell of mint

Fair, anything helps at this point XD

There's a video of me getting slapped in the face on youtube somewhere 😭 full force. God knows what else is out there

Haha, I can understand that!

See, I find a lot of it interesting. I'm all for vulture culture, preserving skulls, all that. I've got collected roadkill buried in my garden 'n all, the skulls are cooking.

Though, when it comes to looking for references online, I prefer to be more careful with what I'm looking up.

Brushing their teeth-? That'd a new one haha.

Hm, I see. I could show you what I'd do, but I can't say it'd be 100% accurate haha.

XD Now I wish I could find those because that sounds hilarious XD Luckily there's no videos of my dumbass out there...as far as I'm aware XD

I wish I didn't, but alas my dumbass brain does it anyways ;-; XD

See, I'm the kid who always wanted to bring in roadkill to dissect it and would watch an open-heart surgery while eating a steak, like I swear unless it's puke or someone brushing their teeth, I have a gut of steel XD

I tried looking at zombies but it wasn't quite right, see what I'm trying to do is make it look like that design I've been showing you, I'm trying to make it look like it's starting to rot and decay. But zombies are usually pretty far gone where the flesh is peeling off of the bones vs just beginning to eat away at things

Luckily I was always too drunk to be embarrassed but there are some funny videos of me out there, absolutely trashed speaking in an *awful* French accent, lamenting that I forgot how I usually spoke 😭

Haha, apparently it's not too uncommon! Some people are just more susceptible to accents than others. I don't get it whilst watching shows, but I do when travelling to other countries/speaking to my friends.

Haha, yeah, I guess it can be called squeamish. I like to be sensible about what I expose myself to online. I feel no desire to know how to accurately draw degraded human flesh - an artistic estimation works just fine for me!
Could always try looking at zombie designs too - they'll probably be handy here.

Kryuk,

Watching "Hell's Kitchen" is always a nightmare. Especially because an American English accent is the only accent I can mimic without a trace of a Russian accent. So a British accent sounds like a donkey that was born in Siberia desperately trying to fit into Great Britan

I've noticed my adopts and many others haven't been selling like normal. People also haven't been advertising art shops or anything like that. Let's discuss.

Being here for a long, long, long while, I've seen the art community rise/fall/etc.

I think as of right now, the main problem with the community "dying" is the prices. Artists want to be paid what they deserve, and they need it, but the problem is newer players have troubles getting mush/apples/etc. and can't/don't want to spend what they have.

As well as the contests, I hardly see them get more than 5 entries at this point. Either artists are tired or they just don't know what to do.

You just gave me a justifyable reason to lower my art shop prices. ^^'

Yeah I've noticed this too i just got back from a haitus and i would say my art improved a lot but my art now isn't selling as much as my mediocre art before even though the prices are kinda similar
-
on a slightly similar note i feel like the economy of wp has changed a lot too, like before I left apples were typically valued at around 1000 mush but now they go for like 500 and i think this could contribute to the art price thing too because if we have "inflation" then artists will charge higher which is only fair and new players who cant get their hands on 20+ apples easily just dont have the chance to buy art, and it seems to me like a lot of the older more known players are moving away from the site a bit so that would also lower the demand for art
-
thanks for coming to my ted talk

Absolutely, like Futon said there's been an enormous inflation on here. Also the fact that many artists left a couple of years ago and the art community never really took root like that again :c I remember very well what is was like back then

This is great to bring up again and again! As it stands, the art market on wolfplay fluctuates, a lot, and always will!

Some artists will just get too busy and have to drop doing art on here for their own reasonings and sometimes when they come back, the inflation and pricing standard may have dropped and may now, not be worth their time.

Artists always have to change and adapt, but if prices are pushed too far low for the amount of work they do its hard to really build anything up.

As of now, the community is trying to still build back up the economy after long time players have slowed logging in, or have left after all this time. Its still very broken from what it used to be, especially in the boosts and defects breeding and sale side of things.

Another problem is that some rules, changes and the handling of these topics will often chase many artists away, scare them off, or discourage them entirely, while others may allow for more artists freedom, theres so much regulation on content posting (i.e The fandom rule)

Its just a bit discouraging when you can't share art you've done of some of your favorite things, or even talk about the things that inspire you, which can and will make you withdraw from posting on here entirely! This gives artists a lot of drive and inpiration and just not being able to mention these things is a little disheartening. (speaking from experience :,D)

One big one I know made many people drop and opt out of doing commissions or adopts was this;


While I understand it was reminded and is a rule to reinforce and protect commissioners, it removes the artists protection and they now have to take extra precautions to get their payments without out art being taken and them getting ghosted and blocked when its time for payment.

I know many people who this has unfortunately happened to and they often get upset and put off from doing art on the site D:

While there are a lot of steps to try and balance both Artist and Buyer protection, it can be entirely difficult to do and handle. Sometimes a step can tried to be taken, and your put two steps behind.
