Welcome to February 2021~! ๐
🕑 Added 2021-02-02 09:28:40 +0000 UTCWell we're already on the 2nd of February but welcome regardless aha T vT/
Just some quick things I wanna address right off the bat~
-------
First, I'm still trying to work on Rin Tohsaka from last month's fan art poll, but she's gonna be delayed a lil bit longer X0 Hopefully I can have her done within or soon after this week, but tbh I've been really struggling mentally lately. The latter half of January in particular was just brutal, and after another thing happened on Sunday I just haven't been in the right mindset to draw since :/ After I post this, I'm going straight to bed so I can hopefully move onward and wake up with a fresh mindset again~
But anyways, on to something a lil more cheery~
Sooooo I mentioned before that the theme for February's fan art poll would be pairings, so two grils together like what I did for Kaguya and Chika last year. But I think I'd also be down to try a CiD draw should the opportunity arise XPc So a gril and a boi~ I wouldn't make this mandatory for the poll submissions but I'd allow the option to be there if folks wanna give it a shot haha
Ultimately, it'd come down to the voters to decide if they wanna see me try a boi + gril CiD draw. But ye, I'll probably give it a shot and allow the option for this month!
Lastly, I would reaaally love to wrap up the OmniV chapter epilogue this month too T v T I already started laying out and planning the sketches a bit last month, but getting everything together finally would be soooo nice... I'm gonna focus quite a bit on getting those worked on! >:0
-------
So that's it for now~ Thank you for your support this month everyone! ; w ;7 I'll see y'all again very soon~

It makes me sad to hear that something is happening in your personal life that has you feeling so down. I've gone through some tough stuff relatively recently as well, but even if I hadn't you'd still have my sympathy. I know you've got friends on here that are closer to you than I am, but if you ever need someone to talk to or vent to, I'd be happy to lend an ear. And regarding your work schedule, I've said it before and I'll say it again, don't overwork yourself! I know you want to get things done for us, and we all love you for your commitment, but we all want you to be happy and stress-free as well. So take care of you! Play some Persona or Xenoblade or Fire Emblem (no I'm not biased) or even just dink around in Dragalia, whatever can help you unwind. And when you're refreshed and feeling motivated, then you can tackle your art (but only if you want to!)

Oh shall be interesting to see your take on cid if that wins in the poll

For the events that centered around the mental strain you suffered, I'm truly sorry to hear about. I'm glad you were able to move past them though, as many others have stated, if you need to take a break... But, super glad to hear you're trying new approaches such as with the CiD as well as hearing about the progress towards the OmniV! And, MagMag, donโt forget the pickle. Itโs kind of a big dill! โ(๏พใฎ๏พโ)

The thing with this kind of work is that you yourself are not bound(hah) to a schedule or contract of anykind. You can always take a break if everything feels like too much. Im certain that most people would be completely ok with that. Even though I don't personally know you meaning I have absolutely no right to say this, but please take good care of yourself

CiD, you say...? Well, I'm certainly down to tie up a boy or two now and then~ =3 That said, I hope things go better for you going forward. <3

Iโll say it once again, donโt let it get you down Maggie. We are here to support you so I am glad you are getting at least some rest. The other parts of the post sound interesting, especially the OmniV stuff, much excite o(^โฝ^)o. The wait is worth it anyway for the works you put out. Just make sure to take care of yourself.

Hope the situation that's working you so much gets resolved Mag. It's sad to see the extent that some people will go for attention. The way I see it, those characters aren't yours unless it's drawn by you personally! I also have a feeling your OCs are each a facet of your personality, that's why we love them so much ;)

Take a break if you need it! Your stuff is great, but we can be patient - you come first.

I agree with blitz overworking is a bad thing as it will be stressful and disorderly those can ruin your life.
Blitz
I feel like you might be overworking yourself Mag, especially when you're already going through some stuff :/ I'm worried about you, so please try not to focus too much on getting things done in time, or at all! I'm sure I can speak for the rest of us here, and we care about your mental health!! Please remember that! Draws and stuff can come later and SHOULD come later! You come first!!! ;w; <3

As always Magnolia, your work is so so good but never forget to take care of yourself too! CiD also sounds super fun!

I just wanna say Iโm sooooooo SOOO excited that CiD is even an option! I know itโs not for everyone, but when artists like yourself branch out it really makes people like myself feel even more included in all the fun โ*:.๏ฝก. o(โงโฝโฆ)o .๏ฝก.:*โ Thanks for wanting to try new things! Thatโs really super awesome! I canโt wait to see what this February brings...This is super exciting Magnolia! (Also...never ever be afraid to take a break from it all...I wish you my best)

I certainly can't wait for more OmniV story! And I'm sure you'll get over this little bump in the road, Mag!
