Hello everyone! I guess it's update journal time again
It's been a while since I did last one and... a lot of things have changed quite a bit. I'll try to keep the journal as short as possible, but there are few things I'd want to talk about.
The university is slowly going, but it is going forward somewhat well, which is always a good thing, right?
Back to the subject!
Streaming
"OBS, SET, LIVE!"
I have been recently, and the other half of year 2018, focused more on streaming on Twitch! It has ended up being a fun little hobby along the university studies and there is just something interesting being able to share the experience with people, were it entertaining or just chatting. There's also the experimentation with the streaming, possibilities are quite endless and it can allow you to express yourself in ways other medias might not be able to. With gaming streams, sometimes fun things happen and every stream day is different. With Art Streams, they can offer a moment to relax to hang around with people while working on a drawing, were it for practicing doodling/people suggesting what to doodle or as a way to work on existing projects and share the drawing progress: Almost like 2 bird with 1 stone!
And don't forget, thanks to twitch, you can view the streams later on as a VOD if you missed the stream.
If you're interested in checking out the streams, you can find it here!
Twitter
"Yep, that blue tweeting Bird!"
"Did you know", you can also find me from twitter! I occationally post pictures, share memes(only the good ones :3 ), share announcements related to the streams and as a New Year resolution of-some-sorts, I'll start posting arts n' doodles to there more often! Don't worry, this doesn't mean I'll stop posting them to here. DeviantArt has been the site where I have been posting art since 2015 and I'll keep posting them here like I used to ^^. As an artist, it's good to share the art around a bit more, but it's also good to not post it to "literally everywhere"... or who knows?
Commissions
"Commissions, commissions and commissions..."
"Where are the commissions?" Someone might ask and it's something that I have been planning to implement for quite a long time, only to keep it delaying and delaying. There's no single reason why they have been delaying and to be honest, they have been on a pretty low priority when comparing to university studies n' other activities and due that, I haven't really thought about it that much. But I think it's finally time to put a stop on the delays.
While there's no commissions price sheet yet done or official announcements, feel free to contact me about commissions via Notes(or even via twitter PMs/discord DMs, if you see me there).
We can discuss about the details there ^v^
As the univeristy studies are on control, I'll take a week or two and start fully working on the commissions sheet's and required details!
Future Art
“Planning to write is not writing. Writing is writing.” – E. L. Doctorow
Were it writing or drawing, that same quote above fits. As the years has passed and I kept drawing art, I have been planning in my head a lot of different stories and ideas, which I have never gotten down on paper. Some have dracastically changed, some stayed same and unfortunately, some of them I have forgotten as I haven't written them down.
For 2019, as a part New Year resolution and a kick in the butt, let's get those stories out of there and put them into action, shall we?
2018 was a year of experimentation, but this year is for "new ideas and stories".
And also, once the commission sheet is done, expect something special to happen... hehe ;3
Let's not forget some... STATISTICS
..or just some numbers to throw around, why not? xD
We reached 30,000 Pageviews!(I think we reached that during December)
That's a lot of people viewing a single page, and while it might seem a bit abstract, I'm quite surprised it's still growing. Don't worry, there will be a Kiriban, it'll just be a different number this time :3 (like... 32k?)
With watcher amount reaching 200, that is still a lot of people. I'm surprised as I didn't expect that many people still following me after these years, thank you so much! <3
Anyways!
I wish everyone has amazing 2019 and Let's do our best this year!
And...
"I'll see you online!"
