So... uh... I tend not to post about my personal life. I prefer to remain as a faceless entity on the internet. But, uh... personal things incoming?

My father has had lung cancer for quite a while. I can never remember which specifically. My fucked memory can't even remember that much.

Point is... he's going under the knife, they're cutting out the tumor. I just found out today. Fuck.

I am bad at coping with things. I can never tell if I feel too much or not enough.

He'll be okay. I'm sure of it. But at this point, he's basically the only family I care about anymore.

I'm not saying this to ask for any kind of support. We've got that covered. I just... needed to get this off my chest.

Fucking hell the world's really started tumbling down after I finished uni. And I have no idea what to do about it. He's getting all of the remaining bits of hope I have left.

As the name says, my commission prices have dropped by a bit. And, in some specific cases, by a lot.

After two months of work, the model is finally here and ready. Toa Nokama, a bonkle character I've had the closest thing to a crush for as long as I can remember myself. And I just finished a 3D model of her.

These have been an interesting two months. Besides everything that's been going on in the world during that time, I basically spent them learning something new about 3D modeling almost every day. I've figured out how to skin and rig characters from scratch, I've figured out a ton of tricks on how to model things, finally, finally learned how drivers work more properly, and have discovered that making even remotely good looking water in Blender is a nightmare and a half.

But, at the same time, I cannot say that these two months hadn't been enjoyable. There's been more than one day when I got so caught up in working on either the model or any of the scenes I've made with it to the point that I actually forgot to sleep and did an all-nighter... err... all-dayer, considering I am nocturnal. So, even though it's taken a lot of effort, none of it has been wasted. Hope that other people enjoy Nokama as much as I enjoyed working on her!

Due to certain events in my life and around my life, I am now in a state where I would very much appreciate some extra monetary income. As a result, I considered my capabilities and wrote up a commissions list.

The specific information is likely to change as I fiddle with it to figure out the right ratio between effort, time and money, but at the moment I am now open for commissioning!

Please make sure to read the general terms of service, though. They're not long, and it's better you know what you're getting into.

Well, as much as it sucks to say this so early on in my animation quote unquote "career" (I do not really think about it this way, but, I've no idea how else to phrase it >>)... the project I've been working on for a while now had gotten a really bad push back, because I lost basically everything. Out of everything I had on that project, the only thing I managed to preserve after my Data Hard Drive died was a singular texture. Everything else? Dead. It might still get partially recovered, but there's not much hope because the data had been strongly scrambled. I'm getting a free replacement drive in about a month so that's not an issue, however I'll have to remake everything.

Guess that teaches you to always make backups, because a Hard Drive might just decide to fail, like, four months after you bought it >>
