Hello everyone!

It has been a while. I hope everyone has been doing well. I have a bit of news to share with you all.

THROMBOSIS

Couple of weeks ago, I suffered big muscle pains on my left leg and continously coughing for no appearant reason. It was after my visit to the emergency ward that they discover that I got the thrombosis, formation of a blood clot inside a blood vessel, obstructing the flow of blood through the circulatory system. There are blood clots around my leg and around my lungs. That also explains the heavy coughing, because it was a physical reaction to the blood clots around the lungs. It was highly unusual for someone of my age to get it but now I'm must take daily medication of Warfarin for six months or more.

But rest assured, everyone. I'm feeling much better now and I can walk straight again.

THE RESULTS ARE IN...

And now for a bit of good news. After many months of waiting, the results from the KimoKimo Robot Contest finally come in. And the results are...

My robot entry, the frost viking Vinter, has won the 2nd round! At long last, I finally get the results after so long and the wait was totally worth it. It felt like a huge weight is lifted from my shoulders.

Now it is time to address the elephant in the room. I'm not ignorant, I'm fully aware that Mighty No 9 is given a really bad rap after its release. I was one of the many backers who supported MN9 and I was not impressed how the final game looked (in my eyes, it looked like a PS2-game. It gave me a Mega Man X8-vibe) but at least it was playable in the end.

But I won't let such negativity ruin my joy of seeing my work being appreciated. My pride as an artist and character design is simply too strong to let that get to me.

Here's the article of that announcement, in case you want to give it a read.

ART DEVELOPMENT

I haven't updated much on my gallery but that does not mean I've been idle. I have been busy working on sketches and simple colored pics for some projects. Once I finish a pic worth viewing, I'll be posting it here.

I have also been considering of cleaning my gallery a bit. There some "relics" worth keeping around but a house cleaning will likely happen. However, commissions that I have made and those I've purchased myself will be kept around indefinitely.

And that is all, good folks! I hope y'all have a pleasant day!
