DA, more like DeAd 
You know, cuz people be leaving DA, and Eclipse sucks. Yes.

ANYHOW
Most of you prob already know that I'm not a fan of DA's newest update, Eclipse. I just really dislike Eclipse, and still stand by the fact it's an attempt to make a less professional ArtStation.

I will try and stay on here a little, but most likely I'll be becoming very inactive here.

For now tho, I will be making Twitter my new main site: 
twitter.com/luraharenose

These are also all the other sites I'm on. Idk how active I'll be on these, but still:
www.furaffinity.net/user/lurah…
toyhou.se/LittleLightFromDark
ko-fi.com/littlelightfromdark
artfight.net/~LittleLightFromD…
www.artstation.com/littlelight… (More for Portfolio and less for social)
picarto.tv/LuraHarenose (I rarely stream anymore, but still)
www.youtube.com/channel/UC-S1o… (Also rarely make speedpaints, but STILL)

If any of my mutuals here use any of the above mentioned social medias then feel free to let me know and I'll be sure to follow you! I really wanna avoid loosing too many of the connections I've made through DA.


Also if you are against Eclipse being forced upon everyone (just like I am) then here is a petition: chng.it/cBD4fpLWtL
And here is a journal about us as users having to make our statement clear:
The Sound Of Silence - DA StatementSo Eclipse is Coming
SEE MY LATEST JOURNAL ON THIS HERE:

I'd like to organize a proactive event to show DA the possible results of a permanent Eclipse change-over. Instead of deactivating your accounts for good, or indefinitely boycotting the site, I'd like to make a Statement of Silence for those Users against Eclipse. Starting May 1st, I will not be active on Deviantart. I will not submit new deviations, journals or even visit the site for 3 Days time. From 12:00AM CST May 1st to 12:00am May 4th. (3 days) I ask all other Users who wish to keep old Deviantart to join me in this statement of silence. 
Not Only Is Eclipse Difficult to Navigate, It is so close to Plagiarism it isnt funny. How they aren't in a Lawsuit with Artstation is beyond me!
Look at these site comparisons!

I am starting to run out of cartoons to watch, so I wanna know if any of you can recommend some new cartoons?

So far I've watched:
Adventure Time
Steven Universe (+Future)
Generator Rex
Teen Titans
Avatar (Last Airbender +Legend of Korra)
Gravity Falls
Dragons: Riders of Berk
Star VS the Forces of Evil
Invader Zim
OK: KO Let's Be Heros!
Ultimate Spiderman (2012)
The Spectacular Spiderman (2008)
Marvel's Spiderman (2017)
Harley Quinn
The Owl House

There might be a few more, but these are ones I've already watched and that I've really enjoyed.
I'm also willing to try some animes, but I prefer ones that are very story/character focused (Beastars for example!)

So, it's this time of year once again. This year just seemed to fly by.
Okay, so recap of what happened in my life in 2018. This is mostly for myself, but everybody is free to read this!

This year was kinda.. special. Lots of ups and downs, things seem to be going better and better, but at the same time my mental health has seen better days. Some of the stuff that's happened this year, I have started getting prober help and have these past 6 months been meeting up with a psychologist at a regular basis. Idk how much I've gotten from it so far, but one thing is for sure, I've gotten better at expressing my emotions, and I've gotten better at explaining what's going on in my head. I've also kinda gotten more confident with myself this past year?? 

Earlier this year I started dealing with some suicidal thoughts again, after years of them being gone, but I think that's mostly gone now? I finally feel like I have a goal to work towards, and my future doesn't seem completely hopeless anymore.
Still together with Ryu (Sudden-Paws) and she has really been there a lot for me this year, and tbh she really helped me get through it. Can't wait for another year with her by my side <3

School is stressful as hell, but the teachers are really helping me, and I'm still really grateful I get to go to this school. 
Art-wise I (once again) decided to throw everything I knew into a bit and go for a new artstyle this year. During spring-time this year, I really started disliking my art, and even more I disliked doing it, but I now feel a lot better about my art, and I def don't regret starting to paint! I also lost my first drawing tablet this year, may it rest in peace, and am currently waiting for my new one to arrive! (First one with a screen, whoo!)

Overall there is a lot I look forward to in the new year! I will be getting a new tablet in january (hopefully, haha), graduate in summer, and hopefully start working towards becoming a concept artist! I'll most likely also be tested next year, to see if I have a diagnose (And if so I'll be able to work towards overall better mental health!) and hopefully I'll get to meet my lovely GF irl in this upcoming year!

Anyhow, I hope you all have a great New Year, and see ya all in 2019 <3
I love you all and thank you for sticking with me through this year!

Happy New Year <3

As the title says I recently got this character in a trade, however, the previous owner can't remember who the artist/designer was!
So if any of you recognize this gal, the artstyle or anything else, let me know! 

I've tried to reverse image search this (which didn't work), and there is no watermark/signature on this either, so I've had no luck this far.

I got them from @/Th-ana

Once again, it's time for a Request Stream!

Same rules apply as usual!

You NEED to be in the stream to request a drawing!
They will mainly be sketches. Nothing too big or detailed. I choose if it's fullbody, headshot, halfbody, icon etc.
One and only one request per person, per stream! (If you got a request before, you can get one again, but please keep in mind some haven't gotten art of me yet)
First come, first serve! I will only be taking one request at a time, Meaning whoever is the fastest to post a ref gets the request.
Only post refs when I ask to! I will ask once the previous request is done and sent!
Only post refs in the stream chat over Picarto! Do NOT post refsheets here.

Anyways, that's it. Have fun guys! c:
