And so I return ~

Hey guys, I wanted to say I am fully back now with the conclusion of the games and I wanted to say it has been really surreal, as a sports enthusiast it really was enjoyable to watch all different sports at once and athletes of different nations around the world with dramas, achievements, inspirations and so on, it's not just about the games, it's about achieving something you like doing and never giving up!
Despite the worst opening ceremony I have seen (that cringe blue dude mostly) these games were really the true stars of the show and with 18 GOLD medals for Australia, that is the best we ever reached!
Shout out to Noemie Fox with the Kayak Cross for unexpectingly winning gold on her first ever Olympics, that really is the best win I watched since Cathy Freeman of the Sydney 2000 games at a very young age, Jess Fox too for winning 2 golds on two Canoe Salom events, it was a clean sweep for the Fox sisters!
I am not sure how many of you are into sport events like me but I am leaving my opinions here anyway, now about breaking in the Olympics? Nah, not into it, glad it won't be returning in the next Olympics.
So yeah, things are now back to normal and it's back to work with my art, assuming I can repair my sleep schedule again.... hehe.... :P
I will plan on focusing on completing my promised commissions then I will come up with a new commission sheet and then beyond that? I'll privately plan in the coming days.

Either way, even if I may not favorite many of your character works, I do enjoy a few of them (especially the family/friends photos type of scenarios as if it was like going on a car trip or vacation).
I remember I couldn't watch the Rio Olympics due to work because of a time zone that aired the Olympics while it was overnight over here and I never got to watch Tokyo's either due to the pandemic, but if you miss the Olympics getting updates is all you need to keep up to date ~
I plan to make new art in a style that I never normally do, I get visions of ideas that isn't part of my style so there might be a chance I would attract new people, but in all importance, it's all on myself when it comes to art and I want to see myself get more good. (And none of that AI crap!)
Ahh yeah, The RIo 2016 olympics just so happened to occur around the same timezone (Eastern Daylight Savings Time as my state of New Jersey), so it ended up being the same timepoint as Brazil's did.
Tokyo Olympics I did try watching the opening ceremony, but it got too lengthy and I had to stop, considering the file I got was an 8k 22 audio channel video that wasn't compatible with my video editor or the converter I was using to convert it to a better quality clip than before (thankfully it's been uploaded by the IOC, but it's always better to get the original airing in that specific country to see how they speak and discuss when it comes to the opening and closing ceremonies of that year's olympic event.
Very nice. Again, no rush, but it depends on which piece I end up liking the most compared to the other users (but you have a vast amount of characters to go through so I wouldn't be surprised if you end up forgetting some).
Yeah.... opening ceremonies are about 4-5 hours long, they soak in the time to provide a lengthy show before the actual competition begins, thank goodness there are replays on local streaming services these days and while I did not watch the Paris ceremony live (because it was 3am over here), I saw the whole show on a replay that afternoon because it was on a Saturday for me.
Thanks, no matter if you don't see my content much I still appreciate your time, in my own pace I will look forward to something new as time goes on, now I am getting more better on dragons in detail.
