Would anyone be interested in an affordable plushie?

Hello everyone!!
I have decided to move most of my store over to ACGGOODS as it provides more freedom to me as an artist (and I have been having major issues with customer service…. I don’t see ACGGOODS having any options for shirts though so I will be keeping my Artiststore up purely for that), one of those freedoms is making a custom plush animal, since everything I’ve made IS viva piñata and I’d personally be so extremely happy to have an affordable plush available, would anyone be interested?

I’d need quite a few people to buy it and I’m not so sure how the process really works, I’d likely pick a 15 cm plush size to keep it affordable. This is really an interest gauging post before I put any real time or effort into it.

My current piñata options are:
Pretztail (most likely option)
Bunnycomb
Raisant
Horsetastio
Fudgehog
Ponocky

No whirlm because I have different plans for whirlm, let me know who you’d want to see the most or if you have any other piñatas to suggest, I’m trying to keep the shapes and the patterns relatively simple as this’ll likely be my first time working with woocry

Thank you guys!

My VP Tierlist

Based on experiences, how much I like the design, my friends opinions on some (because I started to appreciate the ones they love), and just how much of a blorbo they are

In no particular order, I like the sours design but some of them have some annoying gimmicks, like the profitable

Lmk what you guys think!

Not diagnosed nor do I think I have it but I have nowhere else to ask, please help!

Hello everyone!

I never used to pick my skin before, until I started college, the stress got to me and I’ve started making it a habit to pick the skin on my ears till it flakes off (even if it bleeds or hurts a lot). My friends have suggested a picky pad, but I’m certain it won’t work because it has to simulate the flaking skin thing, do you guys have any suggestions? I’ve tried sequin

Thank you!

Adopted cat in may, why do I already want another one?

Hello friends! Here is my best friend Trix

I have been surrounded by cats all my life but I’ve never really paid much attention or had much attachment to any of them before my beautiful baby boy here, I’d die for him I think. He makes me want to get another cat (which I will not be doing until my partner moves in) so what I’ve been doing is looking at adoption pages and just looking at the adoptable kitties and going “oh! I think this one would be a nice match for our household!”

I think I have kitty fever lol

Merch/Shop WIPs!!

It’s been a while since I’ve talked about my shop and since the semester is coming to an end I want to share what I’ve been working on shop wise!

So the first image is the sour version of the mallowolf shirt, I’ll be making it available in Pink and Navy, and will be adding a pink variant to the normal Mallowolf shirts too!

The second image is a concept for an Anti AI hard enamel pin! This is the first concept, my next concept will be more interesting. I’ve wanted an Anti AI pin like this for a while so it just made sense!

Third image is going to be a mini standee collection with all the piñatas you can trap in the pinarctic and dessert desert, the first one drawn is the sweetle! Basically the square will be one of the traps Langston sells (the wooden one to the green one) and then you’ll get a small acrylic piece of the piñatas perferred food and then the piñata itself! So it’ll be like you’re trapping the piñata and the trap hasn’t gone off yet! Hoping to do a resident and a non resident version just to be true to game! Not too sure about different trap variants though.

The last image isn’t viva piñata themed but once the marketplace adds a search option I want to release these cute fish keychains! I currently have the pale chub and the sunfish, I did make a Dolly Varden but I did not enjoy it, I think I’ll redraw these guys smaller and more chibi

If you have any suggestions about what you’d like to see in my shop LMK!! I am also working on wave 2 of the acrylic pins

Som really awesome news is that due to all the support I’ve gotten on my shop, the POD provider decided to put my shop on the front page of the website! Isn’t that so cool? I’m so happy!!! I have to make some new art pieces for this but it’s very very cool

Here is my shop if you’d like to check it out: https://candycorn.artiststore.com

And also my recently released minecraft texture pack too: https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/texture-packs/candys-pinata-paradise

Minecraft Texture Pack Beta Release

Hello everyone!! I have finally released the beta version of my texture pack for minecraft after a year or so of working on it, it’s currently in its beta so it’s not totally complete yet but it’s getting there! I decided to release it early even though some things have unfinished textures and no new textures at all because I have been getting a little impatient about releasing! And I’ve already done like 152 textures :3

I hope you guys enjoy it! I only have one version up, being the 1.21 versions but you can try it with any version and tell me what happens! I haven’t tested it out on other versions. If you want to use it on versions that isn’t specifically 1.21.7 you’ll have to manually download the texture pack and just apply it like usual

Have fun everyone! Feel free to show me pictures of you using it in your minecraft world aswell!! I love seeing it

The dawgs

I’d label each mallowolf to what original wolf variant it takes over but I’m away from my computer and lazy

Got around 152+ textures done so far 😎 everytime I work on this is one step closer to getting this released as a beta version

Will be making a sour only variant, a sweet only variant and a both variant, incase people just want to play with only sour wolves or only sweet wolves… otherwise we have the original texture pack

Help, Is this a good deal?

Hello all! I need RAM for college and so I was hoping to buy some today. Here is the option on FB marketplace I’m looking at buying today, I have messaged them asking if it works and such. I currently have 8GB and my college major works with A LOT of 3D so definitely not ideal so I’m trying to upgrade to the 32 GB to have all my bases covered

This 2x16 GB looks to be 175 dollars and a vengeance LPX but they also have a 150 dollar G Skill 2x16 gb on their page and I’m trying to figure out why the G skill is 25 dollars less, maybe G skill is worse?

The 2x16 GB ram sticks is (Vengeance):
DDR4 16GB 3200MHz
CL16-18-18-36
1.36V

The 2x16 GB ram sticks is (G skill):
DDR4 16GB 3200
CL16-18-18-38
1.35V

My current Ram stick of 8 gb is (T-force/Teamgroup):
8GB DDR4 3200
CL 16-20-20-40
1.35V

My PC build is:
Processor: 11th gen intel(R) core(TM) i5-11600KF @ 3.90GHz
Graphics Card: Nvidia GeForce RTX 3060 (12GB)
Ram: 8GB
Not sure how to get the rest of the specs if needed

Completely new to PCs and I don’t look at parts, I use my PC for gaming and 3D/2D art and that’s it, if it runs slow I don’t mind. Had my second 8GB stick crap out a few months ago, no idea how to get the warranty

Loosely VP Inspired Pokémon Sona + Two WIP Standees

Viva piñata has infected every facet of my art that even when I’m not trying to design something like a piñata I still have characteristics of it.. I’ll never complain though 🤭 I love piñatas

Me and my friends have been assigning a list of Pokémon we remind each other and making sonas using those Pokémon… I’ve been begging them to do viva piñata too but I’m gonna to be real, none of them knew about viva piñata before they met me so it’s kind of falling flat.. I’m happy to have made pokemon sonas with them though! I loveeee making stuff with my friends.

The other two images are standee ideas for my shop, sweetle one is when you go to the dessert desert and try to trap a piñata with bait, obviously it’s still in its planning stage and I’m going to redraw that sweetle, I’d love to make one for each of the catchable piñatas though. The pieena one is supposed to be like the standee on my shop right now but also dessert desert, I’d like to make a pinarctic one aswell. Honestly, I’m just making what interests me 🤭 I’m in my element and thriving

Feeling tired today so I’m going to take a tiny nap now

Shop sampless!!!

Got my sampless, the kittyfloss phone charm is a little difficult to put onto the phone (you have to go head first) but it gets one eventually, the shirt and sticker book look amazing!!

Here is my shop: https://candycorn.artiststore.com

If you've ordered from me and something came wrong don't hesitate to contact me with a photo and I will replace it

Some more attacks for artfight

Might be making a piñata from viva piñata for myself soon, I’ll post when it’s done… I want to hang it from the ceiling in my room

All these characters were mega fun to draw… I’ve been doing 3D lately for artfight so once I’m done with that I might draw some more of these

Oh! And my samples from my shop are being shipped, expect a post about those items in a few weeks

Some new clothes for my wardrobe!

Went for kitchen pans, left with 3 more pieces of clothing for my very eccentric clothing style!

So happy happy happy

No attacks on me today but I locked in regardless!!

Oh, drawing peoples characters is just so much fun!

Artfight attacks

I was told by someone on a different post in a completely different community a couple of days ago that they recognize me from this subreddit because of my art style … I shed an actual tear, I have never talked to this person outside of this one time (unless I’m forgetting) … it’s just so cool to know strangers can recognize little ol’ me and my vibrant piñata art even if it isn’t really a piñata (the post was about the salamango MLP pony art in the second image on this post)

Very happy happy happy indeed

My fat boy, what would you name him?

This is Trix, he is a *really* fat cat (adopted like this, we are on a diet, he is 23 pounds whereas a normal cat is 9-12 pounds)… he is the cutest little cuddle bug there ever was!!!!
