Hello. I've been away.
a year ago
For quite a while now. I've had surgery and am still recovering. Artwork will be slow to upload, and it'll probably be another six months to a year (maybe?) before I can take new comms on. This long delay is because muscles in my drawing arm atrophied while I was waiting to get approved for some pretty invasive surgeries on it, with a carpal tunnel release and a pronator teres tendon extension to restore the sense of touch to my fingers. I drew so much, so hard doing other stuff that I never posted that I wrecked my arm in two ways instead of the normal one way! Both surgeries were successful, but I still have a long road ahead. Better than not being able to draw at all, right?
Until I can open up commissions later, you'll have to endure me drawing random garbage I'm interested in and probably a load of Palworld-related content because I find the game extremely enjoyable and the designs delightful (and no, I don't play evil, I pamper mine, as is right and proper).
Let's see how badly I can ruin said delightful designs.

I'm glad to hear your surgery was successful, Aphex, and that you're on the mend! Really looking forward to seeing more personal art from you as you rehab your arm.

I hope ya like it, I'm wanting to push in different directions than I've gone in the past, more narrative illustration stuff where each image tells a story.

Thank you. It does mean a lot that you're willing to stick it out when I'm so very slow.

I've been on this site for too long to be impatient. I've seen good artists burn out, when they tried to force cranking out too much art.

Oh shit, glad to hear you're on the road to recovery though.

Yup, just wish the road were a bit shorter.
