SO... I missed this whole week and I have some tea
I've spent about 60% of my free time trying to get my new computer set up (turns out, copying 3TB off software/settings/etc onto a new system on a new OS is not easy. I think I finally got clip everything set up and all drivers installed... except I haven't tested my tablet yet. I've barely gotten all my software/accounts/settings back to where I want them
The remainder of my free time has been fully dedicated toward getting ready for something big... Without boring on the details, I'm going to be getting back surgery in 2ish weeks... so then I'll be unable to bend/reach/twist for 2-3 weeks after (I have a post-op in mid May)
Which means I'll only be able to do art stuff until right before the surgery. Even though I do things like having an angled stand for my tablet, the last thing I wanna do is screw up the surgery and undo the very expensive procedure because I wanted to doodle.
I'll try to see if there's any extra setup needed for my tablet tomorrow and do a bit of doodling (maybe finally add some basic shadows to my doodle of my kitty dressed like Red
I'm a bit overwhelmed by all this medical stuff though (I've spent closer to 85% of my time outside work dealing with it). It doesn't really feel right to do a full weekly showcase if I haven't done anything all week. I'm gonna be keeping it to simple sketches (probably more "pokemon cosplay" since the last thing I wanna do is start a render that I won't finish before the procedure. Instead I'll just work on these simple doodles in the meantime
Don't worry, I haven't forgotten, and I'm not just being lazy about habit. I've been doing tech support and playing "medical test subject" all week.
