Hihi everyone~
Sorry if it seems like I've disappeared off the face of the earth recently, I'm just really struggling to motivate myself to do anything outside of work at the moment. Something about taking public transport for well over an hour to get to work, working on graphic design while constantly tending to faulty machines a further 6 hours, then travelling back home, repeating all of that 4 days a week really takes a lot out of me. What's made it even worse is that its currently hayfever season, which always makes me feel rather lethargic...
That's the biggest thing I suppose, but another contributing factor could be my obsession with gaming >^< what with the Steam Summer sale, getting into competitive Pokemon and recently caving in to the E3 hype and buying a Wii U I think it's fair to say I've been heavily distracted.
Sorry again for my absence. Hopefully I'll be able to get myself back into a proper routine again soon.
Oh, one thing I do wanna mention! Among my recent Steam purchases was RPG Maker VX Ace, I want to have a go at making a game with it but not really sure what to create. I did originally plan on making a card battle game with cards of heroes, creatures, ect. with some sort of infant theme to them, but the only script I could find for a card battle system was some lame andriod game style thing.
Maybe I might give that one a go, it depends... but if you have any ideas for some other sort of random little game I could make just to get me started, let me know~
Ugh... this probably reads like an incoherent mess, but like I say I'm really quite exhausted. That and it's currently 2:30am, I should probably sleep. x.x
Ninight guys~!

Absolutely ashamed of myself, not doing great.
It's getting harder to put my thoughts into words lately. I am very very sorry I haven't been producing much artwork as of late, it's been a real struggle to get myself into the right mindset to create over the last couple years. My living situation hasn't improved at all and seems like it's only going to get more frustarting overtime and it's getting to a point where quiet days are so rare that I end up using them to recover, only to then be put out the day after. In an ideal world, I'd be living in a studio flat somewhere close to where I'm currently working. No long commutes. No worrying about surprise family visits. I'd be able to manage my time more efficiently and take proper care of my mental and physical health. Sadly I don't have enough for that to happen. This coupled with the stress and guilt of knowing I still have a backlog of stuff I owe has really impacted my headspace to the point where I'm struggling to find art enjoyable anymore, and the guilt has gotten so bad that
OC card commissions~
Hey guys~ For those wondering I'm holding up okay at the moment, thing's are a bit less chaotic I'm still kinda struggling to get back into the arting mindset but I do wanna start getting some more commissions in. For the time being though I'll probably be doing mostly character card comms~ You'll find most of the info you'll need on here, but if you have any other questions feel free to comment or DM me~ One thing I didn't think to put on the guide that I feel like some people would want to know: yes, you will get the full artwork of the piece used for the card as a separate image as well~ Of course these cards will be subject to my regular commission rates, which are as follows: If you're interested in claiming a slot for a card commission, please comment on this journal with the phrase "Go fish" I'll note you when I'm ready to ask what you would like for your card(s) I'm only taking five customer slots per batch, others will be queued until I reopen. I hope to do one batch a
Lost control of my life
Hey again, it's been a while hasn't it. So last year I spoke about how I was losing the interest and motivation to do ABDL works or any kind of artwork in general and tried to pinpoint what it could be that was causing it. Is stress a factor? Well yeah, stress has been a factor for most of it but normally I've been able to get through things if given enough time. Is it my medication? I wondered if maybe my antidepressants were hindering my creativity at all, I did a quick Google search, read multiple Reddit posts and articles about the side effects of the pills I was taking and ended up gaslighting myself into believing the same was true for me. Am I just not into ABDL anymore? While it's true I don't think about nappies and baby stuff nearly as much as I used to, I still find myself coming back every now and then to like a bunch of arts on Twitter and talk cute scenarios with one or two people at a time. After months of questioning and multiple bouts of mental and emotional
Thoughts
Hey guys, I'm afriad to say this isn't an update on me doing commissions again, and right now I really don't know when - if at all - that will be. Honestly I haven't really been thinking about ABDL stuff or art in general for months now, at least not positively. The only times I've ever thought about any of that is when I remind myself of any commissions I've previously agreed to that still need doing or how far behind I'm dragging with the Omutsu Senshi project because I'm stressing out about other things. The niche that when I first started was sort of a stress relief for me has started to become a stressor. That doesn't mean though that I'm planning on leaving, I do feel like this is just a temporary thing and that I just need to space to work on things in my own time. Once I feel like I'm ready to come back I'll need to sort out some kind of gameplan for if/when I decide to take commissions again, because there's clearly things I'm doing that I'm not enjoying. Work on Omutsu
