[THE RETURN]
2 years ago
General
So... Here I am, a year later. Coming back here, after all, as much as I'd rather not do that. It be how it be. Doesn't matter, not the point of making a journal about a return, after all.
TL;DR: back here primarily cuz I need money to survive, and people still use this site, follow me here and are willing to follow me here. Plus it also does grow my audience. Besides that... I'm still myself, even more myself than ever before. Might be more responsive and faster to upload in other places, though!
And as for those of you who care:
It's been an interesting year for me. VERY interesting. Ended up doing even more DJing, even more textures for 3D models, learned how to 3D model to a degree, I know how to work with Unity to some degree too! Even went to a furry con! Not just any furry con, but the 3rd biggest one out there - FWA! Honestly - the best fucking time of my life. Seeing so many good friends of mine, fellow DJs, artists... And most importantly - the person I love too! You can ask me in the comments how it went or anything else that you feel like, you do that if you wanna.
It was my first trip (mostly) alone beyond just my own little fuckshit nowhere town, and... I survived, in one piece. And so, my next plan is... To move the hell out of this place. Live on my own. And there's been... SEVERE complications and shake-ups to my plans for that, in a short amount of time. And it's gonna be difficult, and I'll definitely need at least some assistance from art to get by. And also make profit, and try to go to MFF to, again, see the person I love a bit sooner than the next FWA around. That's why I might need some of y'all's help here. And I'm gonna very politely suggest to maybe throw some money my way, or at least share my art with friends, if you like it enough to do so!
And also... I feel like I want to acknowledge some things, and say sorry for the past. The way I used to be, my attitudes in the past, the unnecessary, thick layer of cynicism, some excessive edge in places... Yeah. I've not been in good places mentally, or in good friend circles at the time, I'm not proud of that time, but it is what it is. Most I can do about it now is say sorry, move on and change, since that past doesn't define who I am now, and hopefully... you guys agree.
I'm a full on furry now, I'm not gonna deny that, this is my home, in a way. A place where I belong, a place where people love me for who I am, however weird and unusual I can be.
And with that I feel like I might as well announce: I am no longer dergy. At least... Just dergy. There may be a bit of both a dragon, and a kangaroo in me now. A hybrid of both, if you will. Once I find time in between commissions - I might draw a ref for that!
So anyway, that's all for this journal! I'll likely be posting older drawings for like 2 weeks before the scheduled stuff runs out, starting today! Hope everyone's doing well, and hopefully y'all's futures are looking bright. Hopefully, mine's the same way - brighter than I fear it might be.

since you have your art releases on a schedule are you planning to post it anywhere else rather than putting all your eggs in one basket?
zordraggo
~zordraggon
or more aptly, all of your eggs in one pouch

OP
It releases on a schedule here, it's been... long up on all other platforms by now. After that - I'm posting things everywhere, circa similar time, but not always, because I might forget or get lazy lol

well posting to multiple sites is what postybirb is for, so you only have to post it once to post it everywhere

OP
that's what i use to schedule posts here, but i don't feel like using it for anything else

well using it would certainly beat posting everywhere manually, the easier the posting process is the more likely you will remember to do it

Wish I could go to a con. I am also in a small country town with nothing

If I could do it - you probably can too! All it takes is an insane amount of determination and some source of income!
