Lack of Content, Good News, and Good Guy Ike
5 years ago
General
Apologies for the lack of content currently. I'm still making content, but most of my day is made up of gaming whilst I wait for ordered commissions to be finished (In other words, I'm procrastinating). It's not a total wast of time considering I've still been churning out nutshell art. I've been trying to improve my art abilities, but I never seem to have the attention span to practice frequently. Not to mention that the drawing tablet I have doesn't have a screen, which can make it tricky. I've also been once again dabbling with Blender. I've been using Blender Guru's tutorials to both refresh my mind and give me some sort of practice. I need to try not to dive straight into making a character model. That said, if I do somehow get a grasp on Blender enough to make proper models, there's definitely gonna be some fanmade models of OCs following close by.
Some bits of good news, I finally completed my job training I've been doing for the last 3 months. Well, more so the 10-20 days I've done stretched across 3 months cause of how much of a pain it was to actually attend. Was always having to cancel for one reason or another. No matter, I did finish it, and I got a gift card with $195 on it... that I very quickly spent on commissioned fan art for Suirano. I've also been doing better with saving up my money. Though I still have a fast food addiction, I have been getting better with not spending like crazy. Still quite the distance away from a PC upgrade though. If you want to help, feel free to donate. Finally, I may be getting more active. As of now, I'm horribly out of shape and tend to just sit in front of my laptop all day. To combat this, I took a walk to the nearby mall the other day and ordered some Wetzel's Pretzels. If you saw my tweet, you'll know that I didn't finish and just left a note essentially saying "free leftover food". Though it was most likely just thrown out, still wanted to do a kind gesture. I also decided to continue that trend of being Good Guy Ike by paying for an icon commission for a peer of mine on Rebecca Raptor's Discord. They wanted one, didn't have the money to spare, so I offered to pay for it. Nothing grand, but it still felt good to do. 😁
