masaking monday doodle :] and a bit of a long text underneath
For almost 5 years I've been drawing these two characters, and for almost 4 I've been drawing them every Monday, and I will continue to do that as long as I can. But today marks the day I've decided to end posting every Monday doodle to my main twitter account where it all started, for a jumble of reasons I don't feel the need to go entirely in depth for. Though, part of it is due to the fact that I haven't been able to draw anything more than just doodles for these characters for a long while because of college, being busy, and just life in general. I feel awful about it sometimes. It's a bit silly and maybe childish, but I hold these characters incredibly dear to my heart, and not being able to show them the love I want to every time I draw them makes me a little sad sometimes.
I also haven't been able to think about them as much as I've wanted to the last year or so. I've had to mentally push them away and prevent myself from thinking about them so I can focus on my responsibilities because I know they will get in the way of what I need to do (I'm supposed to be doing work right now and instead I'm drawing them) (annoying bastards). Again, makes me really sad sometimes, but I guess there are things you have to let go of a bit when you start growing up more. I'm not leaving them entirely of course, I'll still doodle them every Monday and post them to tumblr and maybe I'll start using my alt twitter again. I started this bit and I'll carry it through as long as I can because that's just how much I love them, I just won't post them on my main twitter all the time.
Masamune Kadoya and King from Metal Fight Beyblade have supported me in so many ways by just being silly little fictional guys who do dumb shit on screen and I've met so many friends and improved a lot in art just by drawing them. I've inserted a lot of myself into these characters these past years, and I've been using them to express myself the most, whether that be my personality, experiences, desires, or more. I think I'm at a point now where I can live those things that I want without relying on them, and I'm proud. (I'll still be using them for some of that…but the growth is there!). They mean a lot to me and I don't think words can describe how much they've done for me. I probably wouldn't be where I am at in life without them or without Beyblade in general. I hope to improve more in art so I can draw even more of them! Stuff that's much better than what I draw now!
