All the best to you as well. It’s tough to take that first step, but you can do it!

That’s true. I’m excited for the learning, but sometimes I can’t help but feel like I should’ve started early. I’m no longer the youngest board artist on any given production like I used to be, and it sobers you up a lot when you realize you’ve wasted your youth not trying to be truer to yourself

I don’t think it’s as gloomy as I’m making it out to be; I’m finally working on anime now and I’ve had good reception to my work. But it’s hard not to be trapped in what-ifs. At the end I can only try my best, but once in a while I do gotta vent

Even for my OCs I have stopped working on their story because of just how scared I am that there’s something wrong with what I want to say. It’s sad to watch it kneecap my beliefs and vision. I was scared that I would be doing anime wrong, so I never tried to step in that space

If I hadn’t hesitated for five+ years , maybe I wouldn’t be struggling the way I am right now. I’m finally dipping my toe in anime, but it feels too late, like I’ve wasted all those years storyboarding doing something I didn’t fully believe in

Haha she’s just a character I made up for fun! I don’t have any plans for her, but I’m glad you like her!

Haha thanks Julia! I find drawing for myself and showing to select friends in priv to be very therapeutic so for now that might be the trajectory for a whole. But I would love to start posting regularly again like I did pre-pandemic!

I’m very glad to hear that! I’m not the best by any means, but it means a lot to know I can inspire someone on their artistic journey. I wish you happy drawing!

I’m glad to hear! My struggle right now is making myself feel good when I draw/post, as I’ve noticed bad habits coming out when I plan to post a drawing

Your ability to draw hot people and cute people effortlessly needs to be studied in a lab 👀

Oh man thanks Humphreys!! I’m learning to animate professionally on the side, so I think the stress of that got to me a bit. This really helps to hear!

to be entirely fair this is me trying to break into the 2D animation/anime game with an LO/genga side gig lol. There's some skillsets that are transferrable from boarding to it but it's largely all new to me hence the struggle. Wish I had tried to break in earlier!
