18 years :o

... huh. Missed my anniversary by almost a month. It's been such a long time, feels quite surreal. I still very much miss the golden days of recurring server messages and popping virtual bubble wrap. But hey, this is one of the last places on the internet I know that lets me use old-school emoticons in peace , so that alone makes it worth coming back from time to time. That, and the memories, most of them really fond ones, even.

meows into the void

- ahem, anyway. Is anyone still around these days? It's been a while. In fact, overall it's been so long that I kind of forgot how to even blog, or what about. Life's still more or less the same, although a recent trip to the other side of Europe did make me question some of my habits - too bad I'm currently still there with an annoying cold, otherwise I'd be working on them ("I'll fix my life - tomorrow" kind of energy, really). Let's see whether this thing (the blog) will be utilized

The almost-but-not-quite-annual roundup

And/or the usual "hey world! I'm still alive!" post So where have I been? Mostly busy with life, and finally with a stable internet connection at my PC so expect some more activity from me, I guess. Occasionally, anyway. Other than that, I missed this place, a lot. And can't help but get nostalgic about the old times of lots of daily activity. Regular display name changes, especially around April 1st (my, what a coincidence) or with whatever tiny trend floated by. (On a side note, I

artblocked, indeed

The best thing I can say right now is that the breaks between my blog entries are much, much longer than the breaks between my artistic endeavours (please imagine those two words in a more sarcastic tone). Wish I knew what was the problem, but sitting down to draw is no longer as easy nor natural as it used to be. Mostly, I am afraid, I think. Afraid of what I create not lining up with what I had in mind (a given, if I rarely try my hands at it.) Afraid of only being able to produce slightly off

happy holidays :)

I might be a bit early with this, but you know, with time zones you can never quite tell. Either way, whoever reads this, I hope you have a good day, and happy holidays to you!

new art topic lol

In case anyone was wondering what exactly my banner was... there you go ^^ (idk about the title for this blog entry. it feels strangely familiar, so I might've chosen it in the past. ^^)

Update (now there's a meaningful title...)

The current state of things makes it really hard to tell interesting stories because let's face it, most time is spent at home. :/ Honestly the only positive thing is that I 'won' the time usually spent commuting, which does add up to 10h during the week, but that's about it. Doing everything in one place is hard, however. In fact, it's so hard that I had to improve my planning strategies and install two boards in my room where I track my tasks, both for home things and for university. At

Throwback Thursday: Doubt

On my recent trip down memory lane I came across a myriad of long forgotten stuff - among other things, the two-page comic Doubt that I drew back in 2014, coincidentally also in November. It's weird that this was six years ago, it still feels extremely recent - especially because I can clearly remember sitting in a park outside drawing some of the panels with freezing fingers. Idk why my younger self thought that was a good idea. Doubt was an interesting experiment, though, because I decide

Round and round we go - the 100th redesign

Long story short, I was recently reminded of the Clockwork Night game over in G&T ages ago, and realized that the character I played there had the same name as my usual OC/BZP namesake, if you will. And was an Agori/Protector - and that I'd never drawn her, so hey, why not redesign my 13-year-old OC again. So that's what I did, gleefully ignoring that everyone was supposed to be from the Jungle region so I can stick to the old colour scheme, and here we are. Notable design changes:

Life, the universe, and... well

I do wonder if anyone still reads this, tbh ^^'   But for anyone who does, life is slowly returning back to normal, and I think that's a really good thing. Also, I'm about to finally finish my current sketchbook after 4 months, which is surprisingly fast for me - normally it takes at least half a year.

Re: my art collection

Idk if anyone even still knows this existed, but I updated my art collection - after all, I've been drawing more Bionicle stuff again lately, so I need a place to put it all without cluttering GA. But yeah, expect some more updates from me over the course of the next few weeks. ^^

and back to regular life

except, not really. Everyone wears masks outside, and uni stays digital for the rest of the semester. idk how I feel about any of this.

Update time

It's been a while, hasn't it... so what's new? Days are still more or less the same. That will change next week because I am back to the office. Home learning is not my thing, which is amazing because uni stays digital until the end of the semester. <3 Art-wise I've hit a plateau, which is annoying. Should probably do some focused practise to start improving again. van time~ That's it from me, how's it going for all of you?

name change (+art)

The pun was brought to my attention recently and it was way too good to pass it up, so here we go. Dawing this was great fun, tho.

Blogging from home

For me it's week 3 of being 'confined' to the metaphorical four walls of my home, and I think I am slowly adjusting. But how's the rest of you been these days? I hope you're all safe and well.

Anaster

Remember that character WIP I posted way back? (yea, me neither. that's why I added the link). I finished her in the meantime, and just realized that I never got around to posting her here.^^'

Lots of chaos at the moment

still trying to rearrange my life after last year, and while some things are getting better it still feels like I'm struggling most of the time. At this point I'm seriously wondering whether I had a burnout of some sorts or why else it is all so much for me. Art-wise it's going okay, though. That's at least something.

Posted somethingin GA

... okay I did not know that links are embedded these days. That's fancy. Anyway, posted some artworks in GA, if anyone is interested in that but, like me, does not check the artwork forum every other day ^^'
