I keep making myself nauseous and forgetting that doing that thing makes me nauseous. Then I get derailed from my plans and I waste hours of my time. Another reason I should get back into keeping a journal.

I was reading through some manifestos from the Manifesto Jam and one of them made a game (?) jam that they linked to in their manifesto. itch.io/jam/anything...

I think I wanna do more bust ups so I can focus on face/skin and hair. I usually run out of steam by the time I get to doing those so I either end up abandoing the thing or putting in less effort than I'd like.

now that I'm writing this post, I remember it wasn't my intent to make her look like she's wearing prison wear but it's too late now.

My current problem is my inability to sleep and wake up on time. Imagine all the things I could do with a better sleep schedule!

The yrhm anniversary merch looks so good. So does the melonbooks thingy. More reasons to actually consistently work at getting a better job I suppose.

First time in a while that I've finished a thing! #animeart #artsky #illustration #digitalart

I suddenly got recommended vids from this channel and they're kinda really good. Especially like the one about two women trying to understand a metaphor and this one about oshi culture. https://youtube.com/shorts/KhglSI4lPcw

I wanted to draw fanart of the group I suddenly got into but I haven't managed to capture the members' likenesses. It makes for good motivation to draw more though for sure. Even when most of the drawings don't look right, it feels like I'm learning stuff.

I'm trying to plan for a better future but even just getting started is super hard. It's like why take action to better your life when you can just leave it to inertia and blame your past self later. Maybe I need to change my plans since they're obviously not enticing enough for me lol.

I want to get more volumes of idol and read but I also want to buy some artbooks. I guess I'll rank which ones I want more.

it's one of those days where i wallow in a bit of self-pity seeing how everyone my age seems to be so much further ahead in life. I seriously need to actually work on improving my life lol.

Year of the Fire Horse (丙午) 2026 #PixelArt #ドット絵 May the next year be prosperous and full of new experiences!

And Volume One is 50% off, meaning you can nab both of 'em for less than the price of Vol. Two on its own normally if you haven't read either yet!

It's sale season again and Volume Two has its deepest discount yet! Under ten bucks waow that's a lot of nun for none money

🎄

can't tell whether it's food poisoning or my usual dread before work

二回もアリの巣が頭に落ちたんだから、さすがに笑うよ。ゴキブリよりかはマシか。女王アリさまへplease move away. ;-;

I probably need to be more proactive about certain things again or else the situation will become worse. Gotta set goals and plan and all that.

👾D O N E👾

it's just my luck to have an ant nest fall on me indoors :(

somehow never connected the dots that the arisaku author is the same as the person who made that mamikiri manga lol. feels like forever ago since i read that.

いよいよのjlptなんだけど、どうなるのかな

原画のスキャンデータが残っていた

Man they just had to deal with it in the shittiest way. I just wanna be comfortable on the internet dude.

I can't remember the last time I've bingeread fanfics like this. Though, reading about criticisms of the pairing does make me want to see some that actually explore certain negative aspects of one of the characters involved.

Ever Maiden's on sale now but the dlsite page's region-blocked. Kinda regret not grabbing Ever Maiden earlier now. At least it is eventually coming out on steam (I assume) so there's that at least.

I'm aiming to draw more than before. At least doodle more even if I don't complete stuff. So far, there's definitely a change.

Made fanart of one of the new sinners, Siglinde. I don't really get her weapon but once I do, I wanna try drawing her with that too.

It's fun to be able to just sketch stuff out digitally.

I didn't write anything but I did give winging it a go and I made very rough drafts for a comic. The story isn't very good. It's more just a series of events really. But hey, at least it made me do something rather than look up writing tips for the hunredth time.

youtu.be/KOkmUqRZ1x4?... Long time no see! My remaining work has been released. Please listen!

I think I need to just wing it first because my biggest problem in making stuff is that I try to plan things first but that just leaves me indecisive. If I just wing it instead, I'll at least have something and I can decide whether I like it or not later.

I think I'll give Resonance another try during the weekend but the cutscene only having the male MC kinda gives me the vibe that they don't really care about the female MC. The JP account posted a comic with both versions of the conductor so there's that at least.

I finally progressed in PTN's story so hopefully this means I can get caught up before the anniversary event. It's nice to reach a point where I just play the game casually and use the free time I have for other things instead.

Watched the Duet Night Abyss livestream and the script they gave the voice actors for it seemed to be mostly decent so I'm feeling positive about the actual game's script being okay too.

I think I've finally reached the point where checking twt actually makes me feel worse bcs of how argumentative I see ppl be on there. On the bright side, this might mean I spend less time scrolling and more time doing other stuff.

So, like, I did get the scene more or less done (minus details) but it just doesn't look very pixely. Guess I'll have to try diff dimensions and see how I like that.

Every time the weekend comes, I end up doing almost nothing and it frustrates me. I can only keep trying new strategies and routines though. At least I drew a bunch today.

若干絵描くの面白くなってきた

okay I couldn't resist getting at least one comic so that's all for my entertainment budget this month

but then again if I just delay buying other stuff, it could still work out...

I really wanted to get some comics since they're limited but it's probs not a good financial decision atm

Just came to the realization that even if something I want to read isn't licensed in English and I can't read it in the original language, I can try looking up if it has a JP translation. Crazily late realization.

Made progress on some art. Looks less ugly than yesterday at least.

I think I might refocus (was I ever focused?) on pixel art again. I do still want to get better at 'normal' drawing but pixel art is just way easier for me to get something I like the look of. I could try one of those bigger canvas sizes next time as a compromise.
