245 - Caught a Cold.
🕑 Added 2022-10-10 12:00:13 +0000 UTCHello bros. How is everyone doing? My back feels much better, but I have managed to catch a cold yesterday, so today is my first day of being sick, and the first day is usually the worst, you know how it goes. -_- But I am taking all the necessary pills, drinking a lot of water (and even some chicken soup), so I'm sure I will be back to normal in no time. ^_^
Bought a thing. Spent a few coins on this portative drawing table thingy. It's extremely comfortable to work with and it didn't even cost that much. I should've bought something like that ages ago.
I used to have a proper drafting table, you see, but more then a year ago some things have changed and ever since I've been using a regular dining table for drawing. Anyway, I am an idiot, I should have invested into this cheap-yet-effective solution much sooner.
The work. Lately all I have been doing was drawing and inking. And, to be honest with you, I am happy to be back to the basics. Drawing always cheers me up. Finished several more pictures (pen and ink, no color yet). I will probably share a few sneak peeks in the upcoming Monday Posts.
Work Work. My main focus right now is Jasmine's training outcomes. As I already said before every decision you make about her training will have it's own outcome represented with a drawing (and a little story), so it's quite a few drawings. Some of them will be a bit on a simpler side, but others (the ones involving family friendly stuff) need to be drawn well. #^_^#
And that is about it for now. As usual, thank you for your support. Thanks to you guys I can keep on working without having to worry about monetizing my games. ^_^
I will see you all next week. Now it's time to eat some more pills and get to work :)

Oh I should say that is Australian dollars, our currency is crap in Australia against the USD. So think 1300 USD with curent exchange rate. Oh there is a thought I wonder if it will get more expensive when they have to get in new stock, ouch.
Deonast
Yep it is hard to think about putting that kind of money down, in the back of my mind I'm semi grateful for not yet going to try one out and save the money. Unexpected expenses took half that money the other day anyway :)
AKAMAN
Yes, can't help but agree with you on this ^_^
AKAMAN
Yes, you too, NakedSunFlower. Thank you for the words of support.
AKAMAN
Yes I did also drink some soup, along with some expensive cold medicine from Spain ;) I feel much better now.
AKAMAN
^^
AKAMAN
Yes, every time I catch a cold I am also very surprised. I say, mother winter you've raised, and now you do this to me? How could you?
AKAMAN
I don't need luck. I have you guys :)

2,062.00 USD for a chair? 0_0 Goddamn... I think I could afford it, but I don't think I am prepared mentally to spend so much money on a chair... I would rather buy a good drafting table that costs like $500 tops. But you're right of course, I need to put more thought into making my workplace more professional...
AKAMAN
Thanks. Yes, can't wait to show you guys some of the new illustrations next Monday ^^
AKAMAN
Thanks man. Thank you for your years of support, both monetary and emotional ^^

Feel better soon man. And hey the simple, cheap solutions to problems often end up being the most useful in my experience.
NakedSunFlower
I'm sorry that you got sick, but the first day is always hard! Take good care of yourself! Glad you got a new useful thing!

I always find funny to know that russian people can catch cold... considering how resistant they are naturally to cold XD. (i mean, if i would live in russia, i would be sick 24/7 for sure even in summer XD)

Well better late that never, hopefully the portable drawing table thingy helps for a more comfortable drawing experience. Now that I work most of the time from home (sitting down) and my old chair fell apart (using a cheap spare) I had wanted to go buy an expensive but heard very good chair and hopefully more comfortable. https://www.sitbackandrelax.com.au/products/herman-miller-aeron-chair?gclid=Cj0KCQjwupD4BRD4ARIsABJMmZ94qXFymhf5mbpUXek20umJTKkeacbadwBF3ijKbidBC6VI7obfbt0aAvmlEALw_wcB&utm_source=google_shopping Only problem is I'm not going to put down that kind of money without trying one (and it better last 10+ years). I had planned on one of my office days to head to the store to try it out and every time they fill my day with meetings and I can't go. Something has to give and I fear it will be on me before I get a chance to get a new chair. Anyway do whatever you have to make sure you are comfortable and supported as you work.
DeadMan
Sounds like you have everything well in hand. The drawing looks great, so take care of yourself and do try to stay healthy.

Fall cold, be careful, as usual happy to read you in good spirits and that your back is better
