Oct 31: Montly Update - Argh My Back!

Status: Aching!
█ So I've been doing art for basically 8 days straight doing the Halloween themed stuff, and I suppose my body is paying a little bit of a price for it. Not the first time either, the last significant time it was the wrist of my drawing hand (bought a brace for that rather fun predicament). The back pain was mostly a silly mistake on my part as I can draw in a position where it doesn't strain it, which I did switch to when the pain set in. It's mostly recovered at this point. Course my shoulder is a bit achy now as I type this out. Still over the course of the 8 days I ended up drawing over two dozen bodies for the Halloween picture, quite a bit of drawing.
Needless to say I'll probably be taking a little bit of a break from the drawing for a little bit. I need to think on what kind of theme or project to work on next anyways. I have a few ideas which I might flesh out later on in the next few days. Hopefully I'll be open commission wise a bit more frequently in the coming months as well, though no promises; it's not like my depression goes away forever and it does sneak back randomly. How I do commissions might change slightly next time around as well, though that will depend on some factors and I'll probably elaborate in the next commission based journal entry.
In regards to the Halloween picture itself, I do have individual pictures of them each (The people who own the characters should all have a copy) but I'm unsure as if I want to upload them to my own gallery... so many of them... course I suppose that might be an opportunity to start setting up those mystical folders that FA introduced. Course I'm also lazy.
I don't think I have much to report otherwise. For those who remain curious my ant farm status remains unchanged from the last monthly update.

Also get well soon and do something that you like to do.
Take a break and relax and have a fun Halloween!
