Unfortunately, as I've messed around with her character design, she doesn't really feel like HER anymore if I drop the fire mane, lizard-ness, or hooves. There's a project I have very early in the pipeline that I'd like to do with her, but I'd like to make sure I don't get sued first. We'll see!

Some more old design art while I ramble.

It already didn't help that my favorite color combination turned out to be strikingly close to a palette in TFH already, and their final DLC character's name turned out to be Baihe. Same chinese character, too! Shihe - Stone River vs. Baihe - White River.

I never used Twitter and never will, the character limit being one of the big reasons. Getting myself to make a bluesky was an intense psychological exercise. I have a deep-seated hate for how social media took over the internet and then immediately enforced low quality engagement. :(

Old socials/sites for a primer:

Tumblr (Defunct since forever): www.tumblr.com/testostepone...

Rarely-updated Derpibooru tag: derpibooru.org/search?q=art...

Discord server will be up and running soon. Probably. And Commissions soon too!

So hi, I'm Testostepone, and I draw a variety of stuff, quite a bit of it NSFW. Follow if you want to see human/anthro/furry/pony(furry)/other art. Follow if you like shitposts. And if you want to see me eventually struggle at game dev, follow for that too.

More to come as I figure this site out!

Sometimes my stuff gets uploaded to derpibooru by myself or others, but mostly that's where I've been for the better part of half a decade. With me leaving my industry job though, it's time to start properly putting myself back out there. I intended to be up and running a lot sooner but, Life.

I tried for a while to find another place to exist but most sites had some barrier from letting me post my full body of work, and the ones that didn't were the ones notorious for content I don't want to be associated with, which killed all momentum. I've been floating around on Discord ever since.

Anyway so I guess this serves as a proper introduction post or something, I dunno. Some people might remember me from ye olde Tumblr days, most people who already know me and my art are going to know from my participation in Discord communities, which ramped up after Tumblr's NSFW ban.

Oh I see I click a plus and then I can do more posts. Why do they do this? Why not just let people do one long post if I can do it all in the same window, like dude seriously has the average attention span gotten so short that people just tune out if they see more than one paragraph of text?
