A 2023 round-up, and a mini AMA raffle (Closed)
a year ago
Heya gamers
Quite the year it's been I think. From games, to arts, or whatever really.
Since I'm going to be out of the house on the big day for my dad's 60th birthday and maybe won't be able to do a group picture like last year in time, I thought I'd take the oppurtunity now to do this.
Looking back, I'd say there's been some great ups and downs for sure, thought unfortunately I only got to put into action what I wanted to do at the end of the year, mainly since it was such a good year for games, so procrastination hit me fairly harder then I expected.
The secret shalon event was a success too from what I like to think. I should of done less pairing for it though. Main thing I would change is focus more on festive ideas, and start earlier and post it in submissions so it got more eyes than a journal.
Some new years resolutions for myself:-
- Probably to take care of myself a bit more, keep healthier, match a schedule a bit more, that sort of normal thing really.
- Get confident into reaching out into the community more. After having a 'never meet your heroes' moment with a bigger artist flipping on me out of nowhere after minor miscommunication on fanart (who's I've removed), I've grown withdrawn, but I want to change this.
- Actually use my diploma from university and think about getting into hobbyist game development, I'm gonna need help getting back into this one though xP
- Draw my own characters more really.
- Improve on my art! I feel like I'm starting to plateau a bit, though I'm sure I can push past it with some research and thoughtful but pointed words.
- Stream more often. Whether art on picarto/discord, or games on twitch. If the former I'll have to learn to not be such a zoom wheel monster before I give someone vertigo.
Since I want to test my randomiser out, this will be a mini raffle for 2 free entries for it, since I feel it's gonna be awkward how to go about them at first. So far the bodypart, inanimate and pokemon lists are complete, though the species TF one could do with some work. Leave a comment below if you want to enter (whether a question, some criticism or what you want to see more of), let me know which lists you're interested in if you're chosen, and otherwise enjoy yourselves.
Deadline for this will be when I get back from family outings on new years which will be around 5pm GMT on the first day of the new year.

I'm curious what games took up most of your time this year!
Good luck with your goals, especially making use of your diploma.
I'd also like to encourage you toward more PTF ideas.
Or perhaps branching out into pics where two merged characters are interacting moreso. Have you ever imagined a CTF'd guy getting mashed between two boob-fused beauties? O:
Also: I wouldn't mind being on the species TF list. :>
Even the small indie stuff like lethal company has been great for reviving some of my friend groups!
And yeah I'd like to do more PTF for sure, I'll see how I feel about my weird line that I go by drawing this stuff without much sexual interaction, but I'm sure I'll cross it at some point.
And sure! It's the least complete one I have but more reason for me to work on it, gotta be both broad and precise with it at the same time xP
Also would like to try for the bodypart list!
Also, Pokemon or Species list would be good~ >////<
Also good luck on your goals!
Hope you have a wonderful new year
I really hope you're able to do more of what you want to be able to do in the new year! Best of wishes!~
Also you your art has been incredible this year and I'm so excited to see how you improve next year :D
(Also, I'll be entering for bodypart, inanimate, and Pokemon! Species too, if that's available after the raffle.)
