So, er... hi there.
I'm in the middle of getting ready to prepare a huge batch of drawings. Remakes of old ones and entirely new arts to share. There's a very specific reason for this. I'm helping :icontetsuwanatom: on the Wonder Molly project now to save it from development hell. However, I'm more than open to :iconjoaoppereiraus: returning if he so chooses. For the record, yes, the latter is aware of this for a while now as I asked for permission to continue it while he worked on other stuff. I'm both excited and nervous about my participation on this project, but this might be the thing I need to reignite my creative spark, because this inspired me to go back and hone my craft better than ever before. In a few moments, I'll post some characters I help created with him. I'm fully aware this site is a shell of it's former self now. Even before Eclipse, I felt like this site is going to hell in a handbasket. I still have a Tumblr and I plan to resume uploading my art and I still have Ko-fi page
So... does anyone miss me?
Probably not. XD Yeah, it's been a long time since I wrote one of these, hasn't it? XD So what have I been doing all of this time? I wanted to focus on practicing my drawing skills and expanding as an artist. That being said, I think I've been pushing myself too hard for the last few months and I was losing my drive, passion and motivation, so I needed to take a break and focus on taking better care of myself. Doing more exercise, catching up on life skills... I basically needed to clear my head and all of that. This may have been for the best, since now I feel more inspired to get back to what I'm doing and I feel my art is improving. One a non-art related note, I went to the biggest arcade in the USA, the Galloping Ghost arcade. Twice. And it was amazing. Here's their list of games: https://www.gallopingghostarcade.com/games-list/ I plan to visit there a few more times. They're even doing a GoFundMe to expand the place and put more games in there!
Well, this bites...
Sorry for the delay. I need to make some last minute adjustments to the first version of my commission sheet, and what I’m planning to do going forward. I was originally going to try job hunting again for the first time in years, but 1) the current pandemic has put a stop to that, and 2) I’d not go through filing applications just get discouraged more and 3) It’s time I made my own luck for a change. The original plan was supposed to be me having a huge batch of finished drawings to submit before I was ready to prove I was ready to take commissions, but I ran into several issues. First, the main computer is broke. The issue is that the motherboard is permanently busted after it fell to the ground. I can try to find a replacement, but the problem is that it was one of those Hewlett Packard all-in-one computers and their motherboards from what I hear are very expensive ($800 to $900). I generally use Paint Tool SAI, but last year I put on a dunce cap and wanted a chromebook

Also, here's a YouTube video below I found on a forum in regards to the $42,000 dollar fines for individual creators and why this would be hard to enforce. Quote below is the person who found the video.
"tl;dw - there's a very low chance that the FTC would go after small-time creators, and would most likely go after big names like L
