Weekly Update
Added 2024-11-18 16:20:49 +0000 UTCHello my beautiful people!
I hope you had a great week.
Mine was good. I managed to achieved all my goals this week. My energy levels are rising. Went dancing on Tuesday. Had some social interaction on Friday. Activated Patreon's Chat on Saturday (That's fun ^^ ). And took the full weekend off for once...
I finished watching "The Owl House" last night ^^
I had checked out the first 3 episodes years ago. I liked it but didn't get hooked. Only to keep hearing about what I was missing buy creators that I follow. I kept pushing it out of mind until Saberspark's video on it 2 or 3 weeks ago. He was so positive about the show. I closed the video as to not get spoiled and decided to give it another shot.
Again, the first 3 episodes where just ok... good but nothing to write home about. Turns out I only needed to watch 1 more episode to get it. As soon as Gus, Willow and Amity enter the show, it became exactly what I needed. I ADORED it!
And yes, I'm disappointed that it was cancelled after season 2. But also grateful that it had a really short 3rd season to conclude it's story. Watching these last 3 episodes was an interesting experience. It's an amazingly good 3 episodes arc. But watching it, you can totally see the seams where thay had to frankenstein a full season arc into 90 minutes. It would have been an fantastic, twilight zone ish, season... I WANT MORE!
I was planning to put some of the characters into the Cartoon Carwash anyways ( King is already in there ) but it's a given now.
Health wise. I'm good. I still have some vertigo. Dancing nights are fun, but I exhaust too much energy every time and I always have 2 or 3 days where I'm a but shaky afterward. I need to pace myself a little more.
I'm also having some back pain reappearing. I think it might be a positioning issue. My body need to readapt to its new shape. But it could also be my mattress. I'm not entirely sure. For the moment, I decided to monitor the situation and raised my Wacom a few ich up, and closer to me so I won't hunch so much while drawing. The new position POV is doing weird thing to my brain right now, but I'm pretty sure I'll adapt very quickly.
This Week
This' week's commission is bigger than usual. I'm still aiming for a 3 days execution, but it probably will take me longer than that. I'll know more when I have drawn the sketch.
Last week I mentioned that while still loving the Carwash project, I was starting to struggle figuring out new stuff to draw. I'm good with the subjects, but not always about what to have them do. I'm starting to repeat myself, and this isn't good. So I'm thinking about taking a few days/weeks off that to give me time to replenish my imagination and reapproach it from a new angle a little later.
It won't be a long break. I'll be working on pinups until than.
That's it for now.
I'll see you all soon!
