Hey there guys, I just felt like sharing my experience at the recent DevMeet that happened to take place close near me.
For the most part, I had a lot of fun. This was the first con-like event I've ever been to and I have to say, I can see why people enjoy going to them. So many different types of people with different ideas coming together and sharing them as well as making new friends. It really was a much needed experience since my social life has been admittedly lacking. I met some really awesome people. Needless to say, most of the people I met were younger then me But it really didn't matter since we found things to talk about and it helped me come out of my shell.
It's funny because I met 2 in particular people and and we chatted pretty much until the function was over. It was a pleasure meeting them. Overall, the whole experience was great and the turnout was pretty good too. They should definitely try it again in the future. So if there is a devmeet near you, I definitely recommend going to it, it's pretty fun.

Happy New Years! + 2024 Plans
Hey there everyone, I just wanted to wish you all a happy new year and I hope that 2024 is a great year for you all! It's very funny because it feels like 2023 was a blur and went by pretty fast even though I know that's not the case lol. 2023 was definitely a good year for me in terms of art consistent, I noticed that I was drawing a the whole year and that was pretty nice. The only drawback though was that I noticed I was drawing a lot of fanart which don't get me wrong, there is nothing wrong with fanart and I certainly enjoy doing it but aside from my character Spike who is a fan character, I noticed that I didn't really draw much of my original character Gunther nor did I really work on his story. For those who don't know, I have plans of making Gunther into a video game character, 3D Platformer to be specific, and I have yet to truly flesh him out beyond his design and a bit of his personality. So for 2024, I do want to try and work on him, flesh out his world and all
Got a new Tablet lol
Hey there guys, just a little update on the art side of things. So my old tablet that I've had since 2009 has finally been showing signs of dying. The problem was that it would always disconnect every few seconds which made working on art a bit cumbersome what with always having to re-plug in the tablet and sometimes even having to reinstall the stabilizer drivers if the tablet disconnected too many times. It had actually been having this kinda problem last year but it was not as frequent as it had gotten now. Long story short, I felt that it was time to get a replacement graphics tablet. I've had my trusty Wacom Intuos4 for almost a decade and I'm very impressed with how long it lasted but I was curious to try a different tablet as there are so many choices out there now compared to a decade ago and I've heard plenty of good things about these cheaper alternatives. So I first tried out the Artisul M0610 and though the tablet was nicely constructed, II wasn't able to utilize the pen
Another year, Another year older lol
Well today's my birthday and I have now turned 32! I've been feeling pretty weird ngl but I think that's because it's Friday and I have no work today xD Haha still, just plan to relax and get ready to watch Castlevania Nocturne ☺️ Anyway I hope you all have a great weekend and take care!
Birthday! Just turned 31
Welp another year, another birthday and today I have turned 31, 1 year into my 30s and I still feel weird lol. Like I know i'm getting older but I still feel the same lol. Anyway things have been okay I guess, just still trudging with life balancing the work life and art so can't really complain lol. I would've done a birthday themed picture for myself but I've been so busy with things that I wasn't able to but ah well, maybe next year heh. Anyway hope you all have a great day!

*Le Gasp* HIII!!!!!! xD sorry I take forever to get online. We really out to try planning out a hang out time or like that guy mention, the Drink and Draw? Even my cousin likes the idea (she's quite like me so you'd probably find her amusing just as well). I promise to try to get on more ^^ I look forward to seeing your art style though~
