2025 Update and reflection
8 months ago
COMMISSION STATUS: OPEN
Journal starts HereG'day.
2025 is upon us. A new year, another chapter in the journey. I've been intending to write an update for a while now, but put it off for varying reasons. Better now than never, I think.
How am I?
I am a mixed bag of emotions both shallow and complex.
On one hand, I am the happiest I've been, surrounded by people I love who love me in turn, more so than I believe I deserve. New friends and old all close and compassionate at every turn. This Found-Family I have is truly the best thing in my life that I have and I'm often speechless I have it to begin with. I'm glad I realised what I have, though I doubt I truly understand how deep it goes or how much it actually means. I love them all. I love you all. If anything, the strength you see in me is what you've given me. Even were I capable of great feats, I'd never be able to express what you all mean.
On the other hand,I'm facing the potential of having to move back home with family I will most likely be moving back in with family. I'm facing the fear that my parents age may be hiding undiagnosed medical/mental issues that may suddenly take them from me, fears that feel very real due to the recent loss I, my friends and this fandom have experienced within past months. That being said, still dealing with grief. Coping is hard, moving forward is hard. I'm doing it, but every so often something hits the right way and walls come down again.
That is all to say, I'm okay. I suppose this is life. Ups and downs. What else can I do but ride the waves and see where it all leads.
What are your plans for the year?
My plans are to pursue art as hard as I can. Both drawings and 3D.
I have plans to make content on the regular and upload on a weekly basis. I'd love to learn more about colour, shading, painting and getting faster at what I do. I want to stop being so fixated on making anything beyond a sketch clean and crisp. I just want things to look nice.
I have plans to practice 3D modelling more and learn what I haven't already. I'd like to be able to bloody finish something for once to an acceptable, usable state. Getting tired of staring at almost complete models being stumped on what needs to be done.
I am always around on Discord and I check my messages and inboxes on the galleries daily. Though I may not respond immediately, I am there and paying attention.
I want to be around friends more. I want to get involved in games a bit more as well. Host more gaming events on the weekends and such. Turns out I like hanging out with a lot of friends/people and just, shoot-the-shit while shooting shit.
I want to get drunk playing Halo or Metal Gear Online 3 with friends. Or something like that.
Commission Status
I am behind on commissions, though I have kept up with requests.
I will need to rework prices.
I will maintain old prices on orders made during last year.
I will not accept new commissions until new prices have been posted and the current queue has been cleared.
I want to add more kinds of content to my available commissions as well, potentially 3D models.
I apologise profusely for the delays and periods of silence on my end. I have not forgotten, I'm just trying to stabilise and balance.
There's really not else to say right now for this. That's where I'm at. It's a little troublesome to think straight some days and this is one of them.
I will, in the coming days,steal borrow an idea from 
maventreecat and write a journal to address and thank the people around me.
For now...
Thank you to everyone watching still. Thank you for your patience and thank you for being here.
Know that you matter.
I hope you've all had a good start to this year.
I wish this year is easier on us all.
Be your best self.

Still, it sounds like you're going into all the shit that's coming with a good mindset. Here for you as much as I can be, man.
