Updates, MFF and Future Changes
10 years ago
Alright, so we're in our final week of big inspections at work and what not that we've been training for and staying late working and all that stuff. This should slightly increase time at home and decrease levels of exhaustion when home.
Means more artwork for you guys! First things first, knocking out what is owed before MFF.
I will be attending MFF after a visit with Family and my Kids. During that time I'd like to dedicate it all to them, so I'll be unavailable for the most part.
Bought my tickets, got a room with a great bunch of guys and gals and everything is set up for MFF.
Last year though I got off a 30 hour flight, jet lagged and with a sleep schedule thrown off by 13 hours. I tried to hang out with everybody who asked and be everywhere at once. This was a bad decision, I ended up making myself sick and utterly exhausted to the point of collapse. Thought being in the military I could handle it... right? Wrong!
Anywho, I'm going to take more of a laid back approach this time. I'll do artist alley a couple days in the mornings (lottery willing) and that'll be my meet and greet time for anyone who wants to introduce themselves, get a sketch and all that. Take-home work will be available. Other than that, outside the Alley is chill time. I'll be happy to do trades and stuff but I'm not going to be running around like last time. More of a go-with-the-flow and if you want me, come to me approach. I'll float around as I see fit, so please don't be offended if I miss your party. There are some close friends last year I still feel horrible about statusing and I apologize profusely. This is my one vacation a year and I'm going to have the best time I can.
...which reminds me I need a MFF meme thingy...
I'm also planning on doing away with the RNG/Wheel of Random method for Streams. Spoke with an artist who has another method that is a lot more fair and pretty much guarantees everybody a slot. They encouraged me to take it and use it. More on that in the future.
Stay Awesome you guys and thanks for your support!

And while I didn't mind the Wheel in streams, I'll be curious to see what the new approach will be tied.
