HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!

Seriously, I could not have been HAPPIER leaving 2024

Why? Lemme tell you WHY

2024 started pretty cool. I get to help with this site's skin by offering compositional tips, its nice to get credited too. Thanks Prosciutto Man WOW. I've been drawing posters like the first local movie that I watched that year and it was really good as well as drawing for my favorite band Good Kid.

However it started getting tumultuous, aside from consistent rejections from job applications I have applied, my mom got terminally ill and eventually passed away. For those who have been wondering why I was slow on getting art done during summer is its because of this. I kinda accepted it when I started getting my sixth senses that it was cancer ailing my mom but alas it was too late and no one really took me seriously. It doesn't help that shortly after, another wave of job rejections came my way.... while I was staying in the hospital no less!

Ohohohoho it doesn't get better, after a few months, Kuroki my dog passed away too. Its blow for blow but he is around a very old age for a dog, I just think he became my mom's company in heaven. Yes dogs go to heaven.

But man, after more rejections, being on the final quarter of the year, being employed regularly became bleak. I just survived through commissions. Although I had a perfect distraction: an OC Tournament! Yes I joined one and I use my technically eldest OC in the internet, Dylan. As a bonus, I managed to map a good story for him too. Things are looking up, well marginally...

I did enjoy my time in the OC Tournament, but holy fuck I hated the final half. I nearly felt like I wasted time if it wasn't for the fact that I'm trying to improve in comic making! It got so bad that I made a literal cope character....But hey at least I improved, and I already locked in for the next OC tournament, HOPING TO THE MAN UPSTAIRS to give me a good fucking team this time or else I will bail. Right now I'm just waiting for the goddamn scrolls so i can confirm my suspicion that my team is built to fail and we are not given a single chance. Blergh, I cant get over it!

For the curious, my entries from the OC Tourny

Check it out :3

There's a silver lining tho: I have decided to try my best in making a webcomic. Who is the character you ask? Well it is no other than my cope character from the OC Tournament: Sunny the Death Bunny!

Say Hi, my new Main Protagonist!

Aside from that, I have been a part of the Tankmas, tho small as a sticker artist (got to get my favorite Newgrounds character IN there; right Il-ho my loooove) and finally, Fulpware GOLD! I did the There she Is portion!

Also Also, some of my friends drew me or my OCs for Christmas... thank you guys so much for making the end year better.

Thank you Tamago for this and the plushie wWOWOOWOWOW Thank you Wurstieeee

For next year, I have big plans. I will compete for Pico Day again and will try to make an even bigger project for that contest again. I want to be back drawing things I love like big posters of things I love without a devil whispering in my ears not to do it. As for Dylan and Subtle Lights, I will put them in an oven first and let them cook. I already recognized their worth as stories and i want to get back at them once Im better.

I will join there OC Tournament again but this time I'm not keeping my hopes up, in fact Im bracing for the worst. Its funny how people think Im joking but no, another all ep*na team and Im out.... and joining artfight LOL.

Man, this year beat the ever loving shit out of me that I don't believe anymore, just bitter. But WOAH! Look at that... my birthday in the O-mikuji... 9th luckiest person? Gee golly I need all that luck. I really really pray this year is especially kind to me. Im trying not to breakdown this year honestly, at least let this be my year.

FUCK 2024!!!!!!!!!

HELLO 2025
