Updates (February 2023)
🕑 Added 2023-02-05 14:26:26 +0000 UTCHello, everyone!
I hope you are doing well.
I just wanted to give you some small updates about my work and personal stuff as well.
Themed pack for February
The theme for the pack will be “Light & Shadow”. I hope I will be able to start working on it next weekend.
New videos
I hope you are enjoying the new videos. I love making them and I will continue to do so.
Today I took the photos for the next three figure drawing videos. After I’m done with commissions and birthday packs, I will also continue to work on a new “Let’s draw together” video.
And that’s all for the “official” updates.
I also want to talk about some personal stuff, especially the situation with my wife. If this topic is uncomfortable for you, please feel free to skip this part. Have a great day and take care. 💜
As you may know, my wife is in the hospital since late December. She is still in intensive care and it’s hard to tell when this will change. She started to breathe on her own again, but there is still a long way to go.
She had a kidney failure and had to be revived. There is a chance that she suffered brain damage from that. Even if that is not the case, she will probably not be able to work for a very long time, maybe never again.
Money will most likely become a problem in the future because my wife was the one who earned most of it.
Right now, I’m fine, but I have to think ahead a little and have a plan for the future.
I looked for some photography jobs near me and there are some options. Not necessarily what I would like to do, but that’s okay. It’s better than nothing.
But I’ll try to avoid getting a second job for as long as possible, because I love what I’m doing right now. It’s my dream job.
My wife is my biggest fan and the reason why I was able to become a freelancer. So I want to keep going for as long as possible. Because I know that’s what she wants me to do, too.
I’m not sure if she was able to hear or understand it, but I told her two weeks ago that I want to visit Japan with her one day. She studied Japanese and lived in Japan for a year. I hope that it motivates her to get better soon. I promised that I will learn Japanese in the meantime. I started two weeks ago and it’s a good way to keep me busy.
I also started to learn to work with Unity, because I always had this dream of telling little stories through video games. Maybe it won’t work out, but I want to try it. At the end of December I learned how fast life can change, so I don’t want to hold back.
Thank you all so much for supporting me here, especially right now. I hope my photos and videos are helpful for your creative projects.
Have a nice day!
Take care. 💜

Thank you! I'm doing an online course first and there are assets that I can work with. And after that I will probably do a course about making 2D assets. If it's okay with you, I might message you if I have questions.

so, i've had a little experience making 2d assets for solo projects in the past. if you play around with unity and like how it is working out you can always hit up my dms. i wouldnt mind doing a little pixeling for fun

Thank you so much! I just started, so I'm currently focusing on the basic of Unity and then I'll see if I want to continue. :) Feel free to share resources, if you think it could be useful! Thank you!

I am very happy to read that your wife's situation changed a bit, apparently for the better, you will see that everything will turn out well, it also caught my attention to read that you are heading towards the path of video games by studying some unity, I am also going In this way I hope to be able to share with you some things that I have learned and some programs and tools that could be useful for you, whatever we are here to support, We keep in touch although my English is not very good. I hope one day we meet and we can talk a little about video games :D
