Sad news, good news, new art, and a new 'Sona!
11 years ago
Hey guys,
I'll start with the bad news. It's been quite a while since I posted about my mum's cancer and I never really made any updates outside of twitter/facebook.
Unfortunately my mum lost her fight with cancer on March 16th and passed away peacefully in her sleep, with both her sister and her best friend by her side right to the end. She had no pain or discomfort at all, so I'm glad of that, at least.
It's been a hard few months, and I'm missing her every day, but things have settled down now that we've had time to adjust. I've also had an amazing amount of support from friends/family throughout, which I'm always grateful for. <3
On to the nicer news!
Me and dad are going to be moving back to Sheffield in a couple weeks, where I'll be faaar closer to friends and family. We're only one city over at the moment (in Doncaster) but I know like, no one here besides collegues, even after 3 years here, so it'll be nice going back to where I belong. ^^
The house is a lil smaller than our current one, but I'll have a bigger bedroom at least, which is a nice bonus. ;D It's also got faaar more reliable transport than here, and is generally better located for most stuff I want, so huzzah. :)
New arts!
I've fiiiinally gotten back into drawing again, for the first time in well over a year. XD Really enjoying it this time around though, so I wanna keep at it for a change. :)
I used to SUCK at drawing heads, so they've been my main focus lately, just doing a few gifts for friends and even some badges. Gonna start posting some after this journal, starting form the earliest (Little over a month ago) to the latest. I'm also workin on getting anatomy right in the meantime, but that's haaard. XD
And finally!
I've had Torque for like, 12+ years now, and I love him to bits, but after all the commissions n' stuff I have of him lookin' like a total, rather buff badass, I don't really feel like he suits me anymore.
Still keeping him of course, I looooove all the art I have of him, and I wanna get more, but yeah, he's not quite 'me' anymore. Just a random character I have to get cool art of. X3
Sooo yeah, I now have Pivot! A rooguy, for a bit of a change. Still not got anything totally confirmed with his design yet, though I know some purple will be involved, at least. <3 I've doodled up a couple of headshots so far, and Maglot's had a go at colouring one of them for me, so I'll post them shortly. ;)
Aaanyway, that's about it for now really!
Hope you're all well, take care!

Good news that you'll be moving back to civilisation (well, as civilised as it can get up there anyway) ;)
The art is definitely worth pursuing!
And I look forward to making many inappropriate jokes on the name "Pivot" o:)
And lastly... You gays and your purples 9.9
