March (Hi-Res)
🕑 Added 2024-04-05 21:31:02 +0000 UTCwhoop. I knew I was forgetting to do something!
Got some work from NameNotFoundGER including a shirtless alt that hasn't been posted yet, a waterfall shower for Brazuldul, a galactic moth sketch for DexaLunae which was juuuust in time for Macro March in the furry community, and a buff gryphon sketch for MrBitey.
Had some computer issues in March, which is why this spread is a little thinner than I would have liked. No pun intended, mind you, as I know a lot of these guys are ripped as heck. But. Computer is okay, so now I'm on to making more stuff!
Got some NSFW work for Sombreve in the sidelines going on, as well as a few other commissions starting. Big D&D one hasn't quite had all its info gathered just yet, but I imagine that will start sometime soon, as well.
Peace! Love you all. I hope this finds you well. <3

But secretly in the background, things have actually been rough.
So I haven't been regularly on my medication anymore. Ever since the insurance scare, I've become afraid to take them because I know that taking it means it inevitably needs a refill, and with money as tight as it always is, it feels like maybe I should just... nnnot. I mean, I still don't even know if the attention stuff was actually helping or not, I haven't noticed a tangible difference. But I do feel it without the anti-depressants. I won't go into detail here but... yeah, some thoughts I haven't had in a while came spiralling back and are pretty constant, which makes work difficult to do. But I'm still trying.
Goolashe found a certification class! He's still without a job, due to lack of responses or opportunities in general, but this certification is angled towards tech IT stuff. So a kind of supplement to the previous coding bootcamp. He hasn't heard back after the interview to get in, but they do offer some job hunting help afterwards, and given the class size sounds single digit in size... I'm really hoping this one will lead to something better. Again, assuming they get back to him. :< It'd last from mid April to mid June. So we'll see.
I also went back to Corel Painter. Sorry, CLIP, you're nice, but I just cannot get over some of your brush settings, and it feels like my paintings take twice as long because of it at times. So, just need to get back into the habit of saving regularly -- something I've always been pretty poor at -- and I'll just keep hunting for something better than Corel. I'm told Photoshop has improved a lot of things, but I would need more time with it than the free trial for CC offers, so... That's sort of a gamble.
hokay. I thiiiink that's everything. It's been rough but I'm just trying to keep my head down and paint/draw. I dunno what else is really my option, but I hope you all enjoy what is here! I'm very proud of this mix, and fingers crossed you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed making it. I need to update my print shop, thinking of things, but I can make a side post for when I do that. For now... Thank you all for the support. It truly still helps. Love you all. Stay safe out there. I will catch you again at the end of April here on Patreon. <3
