I would like a moment of your time to recap this year as it's been something extra too me. so first let's recap the beginning. so if you all remember at the beginning I was frustrated and angry on how low the interest was for free art/commissions request and wip's. but I do now know why I was like that. you see I was thinking I had reach my peek as I had achieve a milestone of 100+ watchers. for me this was big and still is for (me) as I would never image my life ending like this as a young child it's awesome. and I let my ego get bloated that I was someone big and those I strive for more but it all failed and failed again, as a result of my failure my ego began to tell me to quit/retire while I was on top.

however I love to paint and at some point I did came to a conclusion (so what if no one wants commissions/request I paint because I like to do so and I should not change that for fame and glory that's what I set out to do some time ago just get out there and paint for people to see. and if I get a watch or two is fine. that means I have someone interest on what I do and I should do my best to keep them interested and I get real sad when someone stops watching me that's mean I failed to keep them interested. but what is more sweet is hearing comments of my art and sometimes I push myself to create some beautiful art that I worked hard and long for sometimes I implements new things in them not seen previously. I have really grown sense I began and I will keep growing and hopefully with you all by my side. but without you as well. so I think I will let keep what I have now be the way forward just open a little commissions/request time and a little for my own creativity and let the rest of the time being doing something else. I will also strive to encourage people to paint and encourage life and my own knowledge to all to listen. so If I manage to encourage one people that will make my day any day.

so what is the future for me? well this year I upgraded hard. as I bought a next gen smartphone as my old stops registering the sim card and my new is better. and in April I bought myself a ps4 and I am now in the next gen gaming and in playing again. and in December this year I bought a new PC that is more powerful then ever before.. but as I wrote this it's broke but I had it ruining for a couple of days and it was awesome. and I am getting it fix ASAP when everybody is back from new year. so I have to wait a bit before I can confirm that I use it as I am back for now on my old PC. but I am exited on what this new PC can do as it can possible have a better paint system then paint.net and gimp 2 that I am using now so in 2019 will I try this new feature out. so the future looks bright even if it started shakily and unsure. it ended positive as I fell good on what I made and fixed this year. it's fells good man..to finely speak up on what I felt was wrong in my mind and I have now fix it for the better. I can't believe I forgot my own principle and I felt sad and negative for a long time.. until now. I should always focus on the good and strives to share my opinion and others to improve those around me. no matter what.

and that's is it. my final report of 2018.. in 2019 I will have a better PC I fell more confident on what is my place here is and who knows what more will come or happen I might get 200 watchers...at one point maybe not at the end of next year but who knows. but for now I will work on and publish a new character for 2019 upcoming commissions/request event.

so HAPPY NEW YEAR from the Dragon Empire Dovahreich the true and only rich...see you all in 2019.
