Hi lovelies who still keep checking my stuff! ♥

Nothing special to tell you, just been busy with irl life: both work and my own mental health. Had a doctor appointment yesterday and gosh it was so good. The doctor was so nice and I really felt like they were concerned about my mental health etc. Already booked second appointment and I will be seeing them even after that as I have so many things I want to talk about with them: mostly about my possible ADHD/ADD and my gender.

Haven't gotten any art done for a good while. I had some kind of an art block and now when I would love to try drawing again I have hurt my arm. : / Last week I slipped on ice while working and have had some arm ache since. I have seen a doctor about it and I'm still on a sick leave. My work is quite physical so I really want my arm to rest before going back to work. Next shift would be on the Boxing day... I can just imagine how chaotic that shift will be with all sales and bored people ahahahaha... oTL

ARPG motivation... is still in a vacation. oTL I think I should just try drawing some art of my ARPG creatures without stressing that those pieces should be somehow "useful" for ARPGs. Just draw some possible lore pieces or just simple pagedolls or something.

But I hope you all have nice holidays! : > I always seem to have some family-related worries around this time of year which makes it bit hard for me to enjoy Christmas but I'm really trying to learn how to like Christmas again by celebrating it my own way! ♥

Long time no non-ARPG related journal! Thought I could quickly update what is going on with my life atm. : >

IRL
I finally graduated this spring! Some of you probably know I studied interactive media and arts, so I pretty much studied basics of things like UI design, game development, 3D modeling, visual design... Many different things without really mastering any of these areas. I kinda like being a "jack of many trades" but to be perfectly honest I have no trust in my own skills and experience to work on media field. Competition is quite hard and jobs are quite freelance based, as far as I know.

This week I started working in customer service duties! Quite new field to me but I'm eager to learn more. But naturally as my work takes priority I won't be online as much as I have been before.

ARPGs
ARPGs, mostly World of Reos, have been main point of my creative for couple of years. I have decided to take a break from Reos related things and I'm stepping down from my admin duties. I do not plan on actually quitting Reos, I just really need a break to hopefully get my motivation and inspiration back.

COMMISSIONS
Oh commissions... I keep talking about them and never manage to actually re-open them. Mostly this is because I have serious troubles pricing my work and I'm bit unsure if anybody is actually interested in getting art from me. :'D But I still want to get commission business going; at least now I can compare my prices to my hourly salary I get from my actual work.
What kinds of commissions you would be most interested in?

Congrats on the graduation bean! I am so happy for you!

Edit: I don't have much money to commission people right now but your art is beautiful and I bet people would like to commission you ;A:
I bet people would really love to buy chibis and stuff like you did for the reepuls group!

and i know when I have money I'd love to buy more cards like the ones you made for me
