Will you ever do the monthly prompts again?

To be perfectly honest, I’m not sure.

As the saying goes, "Never say never", but it would be pretty poetic if our final prompt was the one I posted on our seven year anniversary, don't you think?

As I mentioned in our “End of an Era” post, there have been many factors that ultimately made me decide to wind things down here, but in light of almost all the major horrible global events this year, on a personal level I’ve been feeling pretty burnt out. Before crap really hit the fan, I was just starting to piece together an idea for one final hurrah for the blog / community, but 2020 happened and Terrible Global Events definitely left an impact on me. (Also the tumblr update around that time completely busted my dashboard, so I couldn’t even do my quick art queue-ing that I typically do for GHQ. Even after xkit found a fix for it, I never really got that energy back, which is another reason why things have been pretty dead here).

All in all, I guess it comes down to a of lack of time and energy. I don’t like sharing too many personal things on this blog because this isn’t a personal blog and frankly I’m a private person, but I’m currently working three jobs so that also doesn’t leave me with much time for this blog, let alone myself.

We still have Seven Years worth of prompts and three years worth of Monthly Gem Challenges (as well as the 30 Day Gemsona Challenge and the Gemsona Stats Sheets). As for anything else however, I’m afraid things are going to be quiet around here for a while. In the meantime, I hope you all take care of yourselves and stay safe. (On a somewhat related matter, if you live in the US, please vote, and vote early! And don’t vote for that Orange idiot!)

hey, would you be able to delete your reblogs of a blogs art if requested to? I’m shutting my blog down and don’t want my art on the internet and I was wondering if you would mind doing that? thank you for your time!

I'm always more than happy to do that (however you would have to make the request off-anon).

Accidentally deleted the ask I just published so I’m just going to make my response its own post (apologies to the person who sent in the question, can’t @ you since I can’t remember your url)

Re: the question of the “Body horror” tag on posts.

Not all fusions are labeled this way (sometimes we add that tag on regular gem posts too). Steven Universe did depict a variety of designs with their fusions, so typically gems / fusions sharing similar features don’t need the warning tag since it’s not new and people who are familiar with the show shouldn’t be too surprised by it (though there are exceptions to this norm). Ultimately, the “Body Horror” warning tag is used at our discretion or when people specifically ask for something to be tagged, so occasionally we use that as a blanket tag.

We never use this tag to criticize someone’s work, hopefully it doesn’t come across that way. Hopefully this answers your question!

Holly Blue Agate & Lavender Pearl

Lightning Ridge Opal

(The Draft for Lightning Ridge and Lavender Pearl were made by my wonderful Brother!)

[gemsona-hq]

Could you draw either my blind pearl or my iridescent blue pearl then? Whichever you like best

I made a change on Iridiscent Blue Pearl's palette, but only the eye-shadow thing

I hope you still like it ^ ^

Jade

Very sensitive and curious about anything, she decided to come little Homeworld with Era 3's new mindset. There, she met Lavender Pearl, her partner, and she occasionally gets lost in caves, discovering Earth's unanimated gems. She also likes glowy thingies haha ^^

[gemsona-hq]

I tried to make a fusion between Yellow and Blue pearls. Maybe I will make more of her later
