Hello, back finally to write another post.
Firstly, I still cringe and get kinda depressed thinking about my old laptop crashing and all my work that was on it.. and I kind of want to get that off my profile with a new post (RIP old files.....maybe one day when I'm rich I will try to extract you *sniff*)
I'm writing now with an update.
So I'm looking forward to a new job I'm trying to land this week as an aeroplane cabin cleaner. Lot's of security checks and inductions, but I'm keen for this, I need something a little more fast paced right now because my lack of motivation for the past years has been a major hindrance.
In the art spectrum of things, I did manage to find some spark of motivation however. I finally finished reading the Brigadoon manga and watched the anime series (which is something i never do) and I found a huge urge to draw comics of them. I finished 3 pages of it so far, but I'd rather hold off on it until I actually get somewhere with it. I'd like to screentone them but not put too much effort into inking.
I also watched first 7 epps of Yuri on Ice and it doesn't really jump out at me, but it's amusing to say the least....Victor's Japanese-esque pronunciation of Russian is very amusing. I did draw some of Victor and Yuuri (and a crappy sketch is up) so I'd like that and something involving Alolan Ninetales finished before next con.
I was supposed to draw a bunch of sketches daily, but I was more or less experimenting with Sai at the time and the trial ran out so I stopped for a while and moved on to traditional drawings, hence the comics. So as long as I focus on something that keeps the art juices going..I'd like to use that to draw everything else.
So yeah, I'm looking a bit forward to the future at this point with a better job and all. I was doing a receptionist trial job last Christmas and basically got ripped off by not being paid for my work AT ALL. The shifty asshole took advantage of the fact I didn't sign anything, but I know soo so so much more now about the way of things - There really needs to be lessons out there about how to avoid getting fucked over by potential employers; basically, DON'T WORK FOR THEM AT ALL UNLESS THEY GET THE PAPERWORK SORTED FIRST...Otherwise you may just be walking straight into a trap.
And that was what happened to me, but w/e, fuck that guy and I hope he loses his business by FairWork in the future : ))
So here's me hoping to more art as always lewlllll >___>

My thoughts on DMC5
Been a while, but I thought I'd write a journal.
Life is somewhat mundane, can't really say anything so life changing has happened, other than buying another car, but eh.
I mostly just wanted to write about DMC5
I recently watched all the cutscenes from DMC5 (or shall we say, DMCV?? Heh) I definitely like it more than 4, I feel this installment has a lot more development to the story aside from the usual Capcom pitfallls...plotholes. I don't exactly want to spoil anything.... but the story between Nero and his, err, newly discovered/acquired family is hardly explained, but I'm actually not bothered by this idea anymore like I used to be

Con run for April is over. I'm so dead from the 3000km drive lmao. Next run is in June, again 2 cons a week apart... sad thing is, I'm not selling artwork now. No time, no space. I really want to, but with work and life in general, I can't unless in my spare time. I took 2 weeks off work and it was not a holiday, every single day I was busy. I had an argument with the hubby about it, and I do intend to continue with the creative stuff, but I'm telling myself i'm on hiatus atm, or something like that.. Also, yeah, I did not finish that Dante pic lmao.
I don't have time for anything, not even sleep. So when people come out and rant to me abou
NYE rant
This is a bit overdue now, but I just can't find time for anything personal or productive.
I'm writing this at work, sitting in the van, watching them push out Cathay Pacific, ready to depart. I find myself doing things I reserve in my spare time while at work more and more now. And I hate typing on my phone.
It's been an excessively busy year. I somehow managed to attend 6 conventions this year (4 of which was interstate) while juggling work and getting my shifts covered... our business has gotten bigger and bigger, and well, I'm pretty excited and proud to sell items I myself always wanted, from my fandoms.
It hasn't been all great tho
Hard drive crashed
Cutting right to it: Recently, my hd just suddenly fried itself and it can't be read/run on PC at all......sooo.....basically, ALL my work for the past 5 years are inaccessible (unless I had thousands of dollars to throw at someone to extract the data, that would be grrrreatttt)
Ok seriously, no, it's not even funny. I was having anxiety attacks...if I can call it that. Just thinking about the amount of stuff I had that I can't replicate or get back...
I had heaps of work man, and although a lot was unfinished, I had heaps with 10s of hours into each (plus I edit a lot). Not everything was backed up, thankfully most of my work was uploaded
