I started this blog on November 4th, 2011. Time flies, when you aren’t paying attention.
So, good news! The dojo’s complete. I’ll be updating by the end of the weekend. And then I won’t feel guilty about opening my inbox.
Bad news! I have been living under a rock since early 2013, I’d say. I know, maybe, five of you. So, feel free to introduce yourself, if you’ve been following me, for some reason. Or not.
Hey, okay, so here’s what’s going on.Â
Since it’s basically months between whatever updates I do, I’m basically changing everything. I’ve said it a million times at this point, but drawing typhlosions became a bit unfun pretty quickly, basically shortly after the first year. The overall shape is awkward for me, except at certain specific angles. So, I’m going to try and style it out. If I can’t do that, well /shrug.
Another issue is that doing anything for this blog became a pretty huge time commitment. When I started, I was so focused on impressing people with my 1337 @rt 5ki77l3z that I broke out Painter and, basically, every post ever has been in the same painting-but-not-really-painting thing I usually do. Basically, an image for this whole project, from the sketch, to the last bits of value, can and does take hours, depending on how much I have to do. I like seeing people enjoy my work, but the product I get from the time I put in does not leave me satisfied, especially when I’ve realized I can spend that time doing something I enjoy equally as much, like simracing, or 3D modeling. Doesn’t help that during the week, when I’d usually have time and energy for stuff like this blog, I’m typically pretty thrashed from things like waking up at 4 AM for classes. I’ve basically had permanent racoon eyes all semester.
So that’s basically it. A lot of the things I originally started this blog for, both in myself, and on Tumblr aren’t there anymore. My interest in Pokémon isn’t as strong as it used to be, and this whole ask blog thing feels like it’s gotten, for lack of a better word, mainstream. It’s still its own sub-community in the sea of Tumblr, sure, but it has the feeling of a large city, as opposed the small town it once was. I’m not, like, the first guy ever, but I got in real stonkin’ early, and I’ve been here to watch everything expand. There are people everywhere now, and many of the ones I was close with I’ve either let grow distant, or have moved out of the scene. I mean, what am I supposed to do when I can’t reblog husbando Awesomenite’s posts with mean, snarky doodles? That was all I had left!
Anyway, yeah. Summer’s coming. I’m going to give it one last shot and see if I like what I come up with. If that’s not the case, I’m probably going to move on to greener pastures, full of little horsies. I like to think my work is fairly distinct, so if I do move on, and your interests overlap to a certain other P fandom, we might cross paths. I’ll still have my Skype and everything on the contact page on this blog. I’ll accept out of principle, since its name is publicly available.
Done for now.
If any of you know some interesting materials for textures, let me know.
Also, stream at 4PM EDT today. Wooo!
People are using things I've drawn as profile pictures on F-list. Am I popular now?
With that out of the way, hi! I said It'd take a week to finish that last thing from the stream some time ago, and I still haven't finished it. That's not because it's hard, I'm just really, really lazy. Then it snowed.
So, currently, my activity on this blog is spotty. It always will be. But I <3 you anyway, so there's that.
non-content
Boston's basically transformed into Hoth.

I don't normally link to sites and stuff like this, but I don't think words would really convey what's going on here. OTL
There's a lot of snow here.
Too much snow.
Did these in the stream.
The rest of the five hours went to something you won't see yet. Give it a week at the most (really).
I'm still live, just...not drawing anymore. Playing RCT3 or something.
Might go live a bit late. Sorting out technical issues.
i.e. I sound like I'm on an NES and I haven't figured out why.
Will stream from 7 EST until just about whenever. I have a lot of stuff to take care of, so we could be looking 3 to 6 hours, trailing off into games at the end. I brought out my microphone, so I'm committed.
Whether I'll use Livestream (like I normally do) or JoinMe is up for debate. Last time I tried to use LS, Their servers were borked or something. I don't use JoinMe enough to warrant paying, so if I have to use JM, it'll be limited to ten people at a time—and I'll be included as one of those ten.
This is also assuming the power doesn't go out, but most of the power lines in the city are underground, so I'm not worried. Famous last words, I know.
I'm working. You can expect some sort of meaningful update today.
It's also Monday, so I'll answer any burning questions you might've wanted to ask me directly.
I'm also considering a sans serif font, but Palatino Linotype has legacy.
Lethal League is great fun for people with friends who are competent at video games.
Anyway, I've been figuring out how to schedule my time, now that school's started. Even if said schedule is...sparse. Between that, iRacing, and a couple role-plays, I've kinda been ignoring Tumblr. I'll get back to work soon enough, don't worry.
Stream is offline.
Got tired quicker than I expected to. I'll continue tomorrow night, after I get back from classes.
Just drawing firebadgers until this chocolate cake wears off. Come hang out if you want. 450 Kb/s, according to procaster.
Proof that, yes, I am working!
A change of sex is indeed on the table.
