[1] - Alright, here's the new pinned thread for commissions, freelance work, etc.

I'll try to use this thread for updates in the future, but to start in this thread you'll find:

Money's rough, so sharing certainly helps!

Shift today started out with an all-store meeting telling us: "ICE is not allowed in the store. We can't stop them from being in the parking lot, but tell a team lead immediately if you see them at all so we can keep people safe."

So, I picked up some lockpicking supplies with a bit of Christmas money (seems like a neat hobby to get into, and would be a useful niche skill to have in the back pocket). Also got a padlock to practice on.

I... don't know if I'm confident in the security of this Masterlock...

You know, despite the *gestures broadly* everything about 2025...

I think I can at least be happy with what I've managed to accomplish artistically this past year.

Well, Happy New Year from the midwest!
Sincerely hoping this one's better for a lot of people.

Personally, I'd like to try and branch out a bit. Expand my skill repertoire, try new things, perhaps make an effort to be a bit more engaged in the online communities I'm in.

Best of luck, everyone.

Was this a smart, healthy purchase? Probably not, but it's right at the intersection of:
"Gotta take advantage of those post-holiday snack discounts."
and
"This is so dumb; getting it would be such a funny bit."

I am so goddamm ready to no longer be in the holiday season at work. Last two months of the year are easily the worst time of the year to be working food retail. Massive freight volume, huge crowds that love to jump into your path when you're pulling a heavy pallet and try to get run over.

"You friggin' demon"

A drawing of Soshiro Azami from Kagurabachi

Haven't been doing as much work with all the holiday stuff going on, so I decided to clean up this Azami drawing to get back into it. WIP

Going to be taking sticker sales offline for a while towards the end of this month.
TLDR: Can't afford the cost to keep them open.

Because of that, stickers will be 25% off in the Ko-Fi shop through December 25th with the code IMPACT25
Including one new Stormlight design!

Lucky draw with an aisle seat near the front of the plane. Looking out the window is nice and all, but I'd much rather have the extra room to my side and not have to bother anyone if I need to get up.

Flying back home this evening, so I'm opening replies back up on this!

Same deal, drop your characters in the replies to this or the quoted post. Barring any flight delays, you’ve got about 9 hours from this post to submit.
You know what? I'm flying out of town in the morning, so I might as well open up airport doodles again.

If you're following me, drop an image of your oc, sona, or what have you in the replies, and if I get a chance while traveling, I might draw some of them in my sketchbook or on my phone.

Baja blast pie take 2:

Didn't have the food coloring this time, but it is indeed better with the proper key lime juice.

A warmup drawing of Azami from Kagurabachi before I take off.
Especially with the recent arc, I think he's become one of my favorite characters in the story.

Going out of town in a few days, and I feel like this break is needed at this point.

Without going too into detail, it's been... a bit of a stressful month. My pace has been flagging with art stuff, and I had to call in sick today cause it's the second time this week I've woken up feeling ill.

Important update:
Made the Baja Blast pie

The verdict:
Has potential, but had to substitute key lime juice for a different lime juice, which gave this one an odd flavor. Planning to try again soon.

With all the posts I've been seeing about PayPal, I should probably start making my invoices more vague.

Normally, I'd give an itemized cost breakdown to be straightforward and transparent about what folks are paying for and include a little "Thanks for commissioning!" note, but now

Waited a few weeks to avoid jumping the gun on declaring victory.

Naturally, the issue happened again literally the next day...

The timing is... impeccable.
Some positive news to balance out the last couple posts:
I've been having this odd issue with my new PC for almost as long as I've had it, but now that a few weeks have passed since trying to fix it, I think I can semi-confidently say the fix worked!

So yeah, about that 'getting back into the swing of things'.

Happens more often than I'd like.

This past week has been... tiring. Dealing with some personal life stuff that's supplied a fair bit of stress, leaving me pretty wiped with little energy left over to put into things I want to do.

It's like I was running at a nice pace, then got tripped and had the wind knocked out of me.

A cozy commission for @nolya.bsky.social and @areseverhart.bsky.social as they share a nice moment and a warm blanket.

Thanks for commissioning!

Some thoughts on Ch 100 of Kagurabachi because I like the direction Hokazono went with the latest plot development and wanted to talk about it.

[BIG SPOILERS for the manga! I'd really recommend reading it for yourself first! It's good!]

Cancelled my Toon Boom subscription for now to try and save some money. I'll probably pick it back up eventually once things stabilize, but for now I'll just have to stick with CSP for animating.
