@Penguin I've actually modeled for quite a few years now hahah, I just don't really do it much anymore. I did want to make something special for my stream though, hence the model. As for other things, my specialization was in graphic design, so I'd sort of like to work on some typography again in future. I was thinking about maybe making some designs and drawing them on a shirt that I could draw a character wearing, hahah.

 

In other news, I finally got around to watching The Wire recently. I've just finished season one with a friend, and I really, really enjoyed it. The characters and writing were really well done, and I can't wait to start season 2.

 

As for anime, I haven't really been watching any recently. Sarazanmai was interesting, but I haven't kept up with it for some weeks now. Maybe I'll get back into things once the new season airs.

@Kevin Nice! I totally binged Haikyuu too, hahah. I loved episode 16 in particular for season 1. Just seeing the other side of team sports where people deal with losing. It's a pretty important aspect that I feel often gets overlooked, but I always love when it's depicted so genuinely. Season 2 is incredible, especially because I love Aoba Johsai as a team. Speaking of, who were your favorite characters? Would be interested to hear which ones you liked the most! My personal favorites were Oikawa, Kenma and Kuro but I really loved all of them.

 

As to your question, edeni is correct in that the show I mentioned was called Hakumei to Mikochi. I watched it in the evenings with a friend and it was just an incredibly warm and comfy anime, loved every second of it. No joke though make sure you have some food near you when you watch it, because there are a lot of scenes that feature food. I got so hungry watching it that by episode 4 I made sure to have a bowl of something hot to eat while I watched.

@edeni Hahah yeah I don't have a switch either, but I plan on picking one up for Animal Crossing. Almost feels like a bit of a waste to pick one up just for a single game, but I think it's the only game I'm really looking forward to.

 

@zornor Yeah you're right, but I think for me right now it's a little different. You've actually touched on something I sorta want to write about more in-depth, not so much as an article but just some personal thoughts or musings on the topic. I feel there's a lot of skills you want to take on when you get into art, and I really do believe the great artists are capable of a wide variety of things. More recently though I almost feel compelled to focus in on fewer things and just try to execute them at a higher level. It's strange because I don't think there's any one particular thing that will make me feel like I've "made" it in that sense, and I'm still unsure if I'm approaching this correctly, but I guess I'll go into that more at a later date.

@Penguin yeah I saw the outfits, though the first two you linked aren't too new right? The second two you linked came out a few days back, I liked the casual outfit quite a lot. I actually did sketch Saki back when the costumes were revealed, but I'm still sorting out how I want to draw it feels like so I didn't end up posting it.

 

I'm in sort of a strange place artistically right now, in that I'm not really sure what direction I'm headed in, but I know what I want to change. I sort of want to start writing about art again, maybe just post some musings on this blog. It's sort of strange, I want to write about my personal thoughts and feelings, but at the same time I'm really concious about other people seeing it. Writing in general always just helped me get things out from my head and down onto paper. Maybe it'd help with keeping a regular posting schedule too, hahah.

 

In other news, the new Animal Crossing game was shown a few days ago. I suspected it would be delayed, but I'm really happy that we got an actual release date. Super excited for it to come out, can't wait to see the changes and additions they've made. I personally feel like you're going to be able to travel to multiple islands since you're now able to furnish the outdoor areas. I also hope we'll be able to travel to a more centralized city area to mingle/meet other players and perhaps take a trip to their islands. Aaaahhhh I can't wait to play it, I'm gonna draw my character in all the outfits!

 

Anyway, here's a song I've been listening to recently:

@Naemi she's original. Mostly been scribbling random characters instead of fanart while I shake off the rust, but the Pokemon update earlier has me thinking about drawing Sonia hahah.
