Still fussing in my head. I feel doing a bunch of volumetric cylinders did help a bit.. also thinking maybe I need a project. Have some vague ideas for a setting knocking around, but not what to do with it. Hrm.

I have this thought periodically, but... I miss Dr. Quandary and some of those old games and wish someone with a vision would try to recapture what happened here.

Oop! First strong depression in awhile! Well, not quite. I don't feel emotion often, so when a rather simple and tame plot made me incredibly sad.. I got a bit obsessed over why. Trying to either figure it out, or get desensitized; whichever happens first. Spill your secrets to me, Figment 2! Why!?

I continued fussing over what I need in art.. and concluded what will do me the most benefit is going back to 3D shapes. See, I learned to draw that 3x3 grid at even 45 degrees from the focal point as a mental symbol. I didn't learn to control the angle of the shapes before I decided I was done.

Today's thoughts: I feel passion about expressing passion.. thus I have nothing to express with that energy, making all my effort to practice art a hundred times harder and a hundred times less effective.

Feeling a total lack of confidence, decided to spend a bunch of today just practicing lines

Wound up not feeling up to drawing for the last ten days. Today, I fussed mentally over how I don't like my gesture drawings and started back up. Don't like any of today's practice at all, but I started up again, so there's that.

Haven't felt deep depression in awhile, but have been feeling a biting sadness for some reason. At least I'm keeping up with the drawing practice.

Close to being done sorting out the recovery folders of images. Left me so delirious, I'm wondering if I should place the Beartato images under the "Monster Girl" folder.. it kinda fits. #Nedroid

Been doing this stuff for a few days now. The goal was just to make it recognizeable and deal with locking up style anxiety, so I might be ready for stage 2.. my cubes and cylinders are still bothering me though.

The fact that the cubes are completely facing the viewer started bothering me; turns out all guides have you draw 3D cubes that way. I have more to figure out.. maybe I'll do a couple more days of these shapes before I move on..

Part of my latest daily practice plan, this one designed to get past my anxieties locking me up. I think I'm ready for the next stage; the goal is to make recognizable results, not practiced perfection.

I don't understand why I don't hate this little drawing.

Riiiiight, it's humid here. I sprayed down my sculpt experiments to prime them for painting, and they're tacky and take fingerprints well. Gonna take a few days to dry.

Forgot I also made these yesterday, not just the sculpting stuff.

More sculpting experiments; nothing ambitious, just still playing. Finally decided to start spraying down primer to see how painting goes. Got a bit better at that method of doing eyes.

Tried Czkawka recently; great duplicate finder. Just, uh... having some issue with the image compare feature.

Today's angsty thought; most of my issues would be solved by having reassurance in the moment as I do things.. but who the hell has time, and why would they bother identifying things as "okay"? Thoroughly unrealistic, but I haven't figured out how to deal with the paralyzing stress and anxiety yet.

I am disappointed by the lack of this genre: AI videos where the AI isn't quite good enough. That's where AI produces the funniest footage: when it's getting things wrong in a way a human wouldn't think to! Once it can trick people, it's just worthless slop blocking actually valuable videos!

Actually, surprised it's been so long since I posted any of my stupid art. How about this box I dressed up, too?

Sculpted these not long ago. Eh. They're not very good. Nice to know the texture roller I made works okay on that scaly surface there I guess.

I have just been hit with the most overwhelming feeling of vulnerability and loneliness I have in a long time... maybe I can masturbate this away...

Memories came unbidden. I had Soul Caliber 2 back when that was new. Gamecube version. Character of choice was link; best weapon, easiest cheese strat. This led to me doing his side grab endlessly: Link climbs on their back and swats their ass with the flat of the blade. I spanked everyone to death.

I have learned I'm horrible at managing my time. I started trying to get my homework done, and now four days later I'm bemoaning my choices, learned how to recover deleted files, and have over 100k images dumped together to sort back into my folder collections.

Okay, yep, old prescription is definitely gone. I feel like I have 20 thoughts simultaneously bouncing around my skull, I have a pathological need to express 30 of them, and experience tells me I need to shut up and bottle this boundless energy that makes me want to frantically yell for hours.
