Ugh. Getting ollllldd

So last night I got my Twitch affiliate status and I am genuinely so excited and overwhelmed with joy! I can't begin to express how thankful I am to all of you that have showed up at my streams, followed me, chatted with me in stream and tipped me in stream, as well as for all the support you've all given me over the past 2 years. I never thought I'd reach it but here I am. Thank you all so much for the support and I hope to see you in future streams and I hope you'll join me if I ever achieve Twitch partner status! Thank you all so much!

So since the greedy jerk who started Inktober decided to be an idiot, I made my own Inktober alternative that anyone can join and I will NEVER trademark it like moron mcidiot. The rules are simple!
* 31 clean pencil drawings, inked drawings or colored drawings with no outlines
* No prompts, draw whatever you want or create your own prompts
* No time limits, except October 31st

I hope you'll join me and have fun challenging yourself to do 31 drawings this Linetober!

https://www.twitch.tv/black_n_yellow Come join me to celebrate big foot boy's 10th anniversary! Let's wish him a good one!

Hey all, gonna be fairly active on Insta so give me a follow, please! https://www.instagram.com/stevanusstudios/?hl=en

https://picarto.tv/BlacknYellow Gonna be streaming Inktober right now and probably the rest of this month except the last day or two! Come join the fun!

Okay, so I owe a few of you drawings yet, whether they are commissions, YCH's, Patreon rewards, etc. and I just want all of you to know, I will be finishing those up in the coming week or two. I apologize for the delay, as work and the daily sketches have kept me busy and drained me pretty much but I have a better plan of attack now. lol I've been trying to get too much done in one night so from now on, I'll do the daily sketch and then work on art for people I owe. I'm going to limit myself to one sketch a day and one owed commission and try to get those done over the next week or two so bear with me and I WILL get all owed work done. I need all of you to know this and I'll try to keep in touch with all of you, as much as possible. Thank you all for your support and patronage, I sincerely appreciate it!

Guys, look, I appreciate feedback and critique but I don't need art lessons. I'm practically a master artist at this point and besides, I did graduate college with a bachelor's degree in animation. I know what I'm doing. It's one thing if you make a comment or point something out but please don't tell me about basic art principles. I alr3ady know all of th3m and how to do them. I am a professional, after all. This is NOT to say you can't critique my work. Critique away! Maybe I missed something, maybe something is slightly out of place or could use a slight adjustment. Just say what's catching your attention and I'll tend to it. If it's a style thing, please don't bother. I know how to design and I know good design when I see it. I've been designing AAA quality characters for years now and I don't need a lesson in design. I know all there is to k ow about it and I may break or bend a few rules to suit me or others.

That said, this isn't attacking anyone, getting angry or upset and in fact, there are ZERO hard feelings toward anyone. All I'm asking here is to be treated as a professional, which I am and not only that but a veteran artist and of the highest caliber. I'm not saying I'm the best of even top 100 or whatever. I don't rank myself but I know what I'm doing and I have a near master skill level, which I have proven on more than a few occasions. So please don't act like I don't know these things already, thanks. Keep on critiquing but in the future, simply tell me what you think is out of place or whatever and I'll take a look and see if it is in fact an issue. Thanks.

https://www.weasyl.com/~blacknyellow So for now, unless DeviantTRASH gives back my account, I'll be operating mainly from Weasyl, as well as here. If you would, please follow my Weasyl! Comments are super appreciated! I follow back as well! Weasyl is really great for it's features, like being able to ask for critique with paying a bogus membership fee, letting you know when your favorite artist is streaming and much bigger icon sizes plus banners! Altogether, Weasyl is MUCH better than DA so give me a follow there, please!

I figured I owe you all an update so here it is. I'm feeling much better, thanks to my sweet  dearclarkson ! I still have a long road ahead of me to work out my problems but we are going to try together and I thank him so much. I also want to thank all of you for being here. Thank you all so much!

I don't even know where to start or what to say but I've given up on life, for the most part. Things haven't been good since this month started. They've only gotten worse and keep getting worse and worse. I'm so cripplingly depressed, I don't even want to get out of bed most days. I'd like to never wake up again, in fact. I'm just so lost and I don't know what to do. I want to find some hope but there is none. I've cried more this month alone than I have in a long time and I don't know if I can even feel anymore. I want to start over but I'm so far gone there isn't any hope for me. I keep making things worse for myself but I don't know how to stop and just fix this mess. I really wish I'd just die but I couldn't get that lucky, I suppose. I'm so tired of this suffering and I don't Know where to turn or what to do. I have zero motivation to do anything and all I ever think about is how I wish all this pain would end. I Lost the one person that ever loved me and I don't know how to go on. I just want to give up on everything. I'm nothing but a ticking time bomb. I keep pushing people away in my angst. My health is so poor but I can't sleep, I don't want to eat or drink much and I've been smoking more than ever. I'm so lost. I wish I could turn back time and do things over but I'm such a fuck up. I don't mean to worry people and I'm not looking for pity, I just don't know what to do or how to fix things. My heart is broken, my spirit is broken. I'm dead inside and all that's left is a shell. There's nothing left in me. Only pain and sorrow remain. I don't know what to do. I just want someone to love me like I love them but I don't think anyone can. I'm just an undesirable wretch. Hopefully my life ends soon by accident or something. I just don't want this existence anymore. I'd give anything to start over but it's impossible. I've made so many terrible mistakes and I don't know how to fix the damage I've done. I wish someone could help me but I don't think anyone can. I need to feel loved. I need to feel wanted. I don't want to be alone. I'm so lonely.

Soon leaving here and all sites. I need to go.

Alright. Things have been bad. REALLY bad. I'd say this is the worst and darkest point of my life, even. I haven't been me for a long time. Been so caught up in the storm that took hold of my life, I forgot to go looking for me. I lost sight of a lot of things and I let my anger, my emotions in general to beat me. I let them take over, consume me and control the things that I said and did. I'd make an apology but that doesn't do any of us any good, now does it? I'm already admitting I was wrong and I should have been stronger. I should have been better. I wasn't and that's my own fault. I don't expect anyone to understand the demons I have or what it's like to be me on a daily basis. I don't expect anyone to forgive me or forget the bad things I did. So why am I writing this? I'll tell you why. Change. It's time for a change. It's time I went looking for me and found me. It's time I stopped letting my emotions run me and make the decisions I've made. It's time I slayed these demons and it's time I go back to the old me. The fun me. The good me. It's time for a change. This is a declaration of intent. I intend to wash the slate clean to face myself and cross out what I've become. This ends now. No more negativity. No more rage. No more depression. No more self loathing. No more wallowing in my own sorrow. No more.

Come on people, is it really so much to ask that even one person gets one of these? $10, that's literally all I'm asking.
