So yeah, Computer Fixed
14 years ago
General
Its been quite a while but I managed to save up enough money to get my computer fixed. A nearly 300$ copy of Windows 7 Ultimate ensures I don't run into this problem ever again. Guess that's my punishment for having a... not so legal copy of Windows 7. However despite having fixed my computer the damage is already done, all my files were lost. Years of Art, all of Vitti's photos, hundreds of hours worth of video game save files ect. All gone.
Luckily for me I managed to find a job one week after my PC went down. It fueled fixing some things in my life prior to getting my PC fixed so some things about my existence are better then when I last reported in. With the exception being less free time but shit happens.
Good news is I'll be able to send out refunds now that I have access to my email and such again. So for those of you who had commissioned me, look forward to getting your money back most likely this week or early next depending on when time permits me to.
Its been a long rough road for me but life will go on. No doubt most have moved on since my departure and sadly that is the final item of interest that I must bring up. The spark of artistic passion is gone from me for good. Two months of no access to my digital art tools (And thus no obligations) has taught me that I actually prefer NOT drawing. I felt relieved when the nagging sting of owing people art was removed. I enjoyed the prospect of not drawing. I know all too well that for me to be where I want to be artistically I'd have to really practice for a while. To be honest I don't think I can do it. Practicing when its something you like to do regularly is one thing but when you hate to even think about picking up your tablet pen its a sign that maybe your into the wrong hobby.
I'm no where near as good as I wish I was and that makes every art I do a disappointment. After a while you begin to loose interest because all you do is fail to realize the magic you see in your mind. If art is expression then surely I suffer some artistic mental disorder because I cannot seem to translate what I envision into an art piece. I dream too big for my own good. So really what I'm saying in short is that you will not see anymore art from me here at FA. I'm resigning from my position. I'll always be Tezztor but you will just never see him as I see him.
The last art I was working on was a piece for Yelleena which I must say I am disappointed I'll never get to finish as I liked the direction the art was taking. Sure it failed miserably against my mental picture but it was still coming along well. Luckily I still have a preview I had saved thanks to emailing it to myself.

It will sadly never be finished now. I had meant to go back and fix her belly to make it not quite as built. Shes a sith and she was supposed to be holding a lightsaber whose beam I hadn't gotten to adding at the time of this save. The background was rudimentary more for a guideline at the time. Still I think it had promise. Ah well, lost opportunity.
Anyways refunds will be going out, no more arts. Thanks to all who showed me some kindness during my tenure here at FA as both Dispsosaurus and Vitticeps. Sorry to all you who waited for an art you will never get now. Goodbye

I'm sorry about how it all went, though I'm glad you're no longer stressed by the art stuff. Perhaps we could have some possible RP some time in the future, for 'old time's sake?' I've improved, sort of...
You have a talent for it just waiting to be drawn upon inside you. I honestly believe if you could fathom practicing you could one day draw anything you wanted without even trying. You have an eye for detail as well as the imagination. If you can envision such great things in your head as you say you do, then you have one thing most artists seem to lack. Having a vision I'd think would allow you to create amazing things eventually
I support your decision hun but it seems like such an awful waste of talent. Ah well you do have others
*hugs and kisses*
It is a shame as you definitely had put a lot of work into it and you do have talent but after all that's happened it is to be expected. It's a shame but I understand where you are coming from.
Is there any method of communication that is most convenient for you? I too am quite busy these days but it's been forever and a day since we last properly talked and I'd like to stay in touch. Will email do?
