Herru everyone ^w^! It's me again, Jeffery :3
Herru everyone,
So first off, I haven't been drawing much if at all this month and that's because I felt like I should take a small break from drawing. I kept driving myself to draw a lot and to exceed my previous expectations and to run myself hard, but then I also felt that if I kept pushing myself too much I would experience burnout, like hitting the wall really hard kind. So that's one main reason nothing has been coming out (and tbh, I feel bad because it's one of my favorite months as it's Halloween/Hallow's Eve month >W<). Another reason I took a break was to somewhat work on retexturing some VRC models I got from Ghostly (OMG their models are sooooooo gewd uwu)(x3) and I think I got the hang of basic retexture work and such. I still don't know how to make clothing menus or anything custom or how to change the hairstyles on the models or anything that doesn't involve slapping recolored/retextured model textures on a model x3. Also another reason I took a break was I got a funimation subscription (yep, watching lots of animes after work oWo) and I also got Blade & Sorcery (Exercise oWo). Basically I watch animes after work sometimes and if I'm feeling up to it, I'll exercise in Blade & Sorcery and have fun slapping NPCs with swords and daggers x3. Another reason I took a break as well was I started playing space engineers ALOT (I made some cewl stuffs OWO) and that was for me to work on concepts for spaceships and planes that I had ideas for and didn't get around to. One plane I built has eight rocket bays that are hidden in the wings until you open them with a button, then these door-like things swing open and the rockets are there. Another I did was I built my own take on an SBD 3 Dauntless with a space flight attachment that the plane latches onto and it can then somewhat fly in space (mainly that attachment is for re-entry x3) and the wings even fold up on it :3.
Anywho, second order of business; I got some fur and I can now make one of my sonas (my second sona, my husky boio) KETER ^W^!!! I'm so excited but also scared to make him (mainly because I got 3.5 of the blue I need and 3 of the tan I need and I don't want to mess up). I also plan on making my other sonas as well and working on my suit making and when I do, I'll be sure to share my work with all of ya :3.
Third thing, I went figure skating (ice skating x3) the other day and I was surprised. I thought I wouldn't be able to do my jumps or even get close to some of my spin or anythign else and yet, it was as if I had skated the day before (even though I hadn't gone ice skating since 2019)(oh my god I missed that >W<). Another thing I found was that my coach had left the rink and moved to another rink (which is fine because when I can, I'm starting lessons with him again if I can >W<).
Fourth thing, I do plan on starting to draw more again but it'll be after this weekend (so probably monday, the beginning of november : P) and I do plan on working on all that backlog art I planned on finishing so I can get to more stuffs (like maybe some comics or some faidrinian art or even some other stuff that needs to be worked on :3). I know my track record for saying "Imma do art" hasn't been great as of late, I'm fully aware that I should probably stick to my guns more on that, but I needed a break tbh. Working on artwork all the time for me is great up until I start feeling the burnout or even strain from doing art non-stop (not physical, mental strain).
Anywho, that's everything I can think of at the moment. I plan on finishing up the Hallow's eve drawings for last year and this year and then it'll be onto maybe some Christmas stuff or even some stuff I wanna work on (one of those things being a comic series for Fenrir X3). I hope you all have a wonderful day/evening and I'll see you all in the next Journal/Submission ^W^
