Updates

Hey guys! Long time no update. Ha. I'll start off with the bad news-- my current employer is letting me go. This means I go back to starving artist and student loan woes. Ironically, it's not because I did a bad job or anything, but simply because my personality didn't quite fit in the role they need to fill. I'm pretty upset about it, but there's an extreme positive to accompany this.

Which brings me to the good news. Clearly, my personality didn't fit because I tried to put myself where I didn't belong, but really, I knew exactly where I should be all along. This time, I need to challenge myself artistically. So, my hiatus is ending and I will be actively posting once again. In addition, I'm participating in three small projects in the side-- my own webcomic, a collaboration webcomic, and the next volume of the Zelda Anthology :)

It's an unstable rock to step on, but I will eventually find the balance. Especially since I have your support, so I'd like to give a BIG THANK YOU to all of my watchers!! :heart: Those that have been watching me before, and those who started watching me during my hiatus. I tried to reply to everyone, but hopefully I can be a little more active this time.

Anyways, I got *really* addicted to Scott Pilgrim since the last entry. It's so amazing that it totally blows my mind. It's serious, but equally lighthearted... and I have a lot to relate to thanks to the massive video game references... :P I've also been spending my hiatus from DA with my sweetheart and mah homies, eating yummy food with my sweetheart and mah homies, and working off all that yummy food with the two hours of free time I had off work. I could have used that time to draw, too, but my relationship is kinda pretty important, too XD


So yeah, look out for some new stuff. Is there anything you guys would like to see? These are NOT requests but, I happily take suggestions because inspiration is good and if I think your idea is cool (protip: I do not think any kind of weird nudie or fetish stuff is cool) I'll interpret it. Keep an eye out, though, if I have some free time I may do one of those "10 Free Requests" after Anime Evolution ;)

Also, keep an eye out for my webcomic. I'm aiming for August, but it may be up sooner ;)

Best of luck to you! I know the feeling of not being a good fit all too well. Take a little time off before you jump into the job search, maybe 2 or 3 weeks if you can afford it. You don't have to fill up all the time with projects, just relax and see what happens.

The only artistic challenge I can suggest is a really vague one. Challenge yourself to do something differently than you normally do. Show us what comes out.

Re: Scott Pilgrim. Wow, it's so weird that everyone knows about SP now. I guess there is more hype now with the movie finally being made. I can barely believe it's actually happening!

aww, I'm sorry to hear that Vicky! It never feels good when you loose a job. :< I do wish you good luck with arts though! XD I hope to see you at anime evolution! I haven't seen you in forever. I'm sorry I can't participate in the anthology this year. I just have to much planned to do this summer OTL;;

I can't wait to see your webcomic! XD
:iconmidnight-eyes:
YES, WEBCOMIC!! I can't wait! :dance::dance:

You're so hot you cause global warming!
:iconrukamousse:
Huzzah, Vicky. I'm still sorry about your job. That blows. I forgot to ask on Friday when I saw you if you talked to the PD? Maybe I did and don't remember? What, what?

Also! Lemme know when you want to tackle the Grouse Grind (for you again) or just go for a run or something. <3

Anime is a 30-minute commercial, and we can sell it to Americans for LOTS of money. :'D

hehe, unfortunately I can't really afford it (I can live but there are a lot of things I'd really like to pay for), but I will have to take a couple of weeks off anyways since the local convention is around the corner and I have *nothing*...!

Well, the first artistic challenge will be spewing out what my arms are able to for AE XD after that... well, we'll see. With practice, good things will come, right?

It's kinda funny, because I meant to read Scott Pilgrim when I first saw it. I couldn't afford it at the time though, so I passed it up in case it would have been something I didn't like. Then his style got better and I made a mental note to read it, then *everyone* started talking about it... which gave me no excuse to pass it up, hahaha.

No, but it's kinda inspiring at the same time because it's God slapping me in the face asking what I'm doing when I planned to do something else XD I will be at AE!!! And I think you're somewhat across from me?? I'm gonna stalk you!!

Don't worry about the Anthology :D the date keeps getting pushed back anyways since everyone's been so busy~ it WILL happen, though! (as will my own comic ;;; hahaha)

I swear I'm gonna drag you and Jenna to the eatery sometime this summer D: you guys really REALLY need to go!!!

Thanks :D It's all good, though. I don't think I can do a full time job in something I don't really like. The tough part now is proving to a supervisor that I can do it XD; orrrrr it may be back to school for me :s (also pssst I told Betty that I need to drag you both to the Eatery *hinthint*)

In the meantime, webcomic-ing must be done!
