Got a bit more done today. Finished up my character head studies, I had fun with them. Also had some fun creating some brushes this evening while I was just messing around.
Was going to do all realistic faces for this section, but they took a lot out of me and I didn't want to put it off another day so I did throw Midna in to have one simpler one to end off on. I had a good time doing them though, looking forward to getting more practice as I move through these exercises.
Thanks for looking as always!
Thanks @mitsuki-youko They were a lot of fun to make. I didn't make any very original but it was fun to mess around with them, excited to see if I can actually find a use for any of them haha.
Well, lots of things are going to be changing in my life coming soon and I'm trying to come to terms with it all and focus on the bright side of things. Easier said than done some days though. Been working to get myself back up at 5 AM and start trying to knock out some of my assignments then and working to find time throughout the day to do some other practice.
We'll see how that all turns out but for now here's what I've got. I unfortunately don't have enough time this evening to do anymore of the assignments so I just took some time to work on volumes. Hoping to get some more time for facial features tomorrow or Thursday.
Anyways, here's the work.
Thanks for looking, hope you all are well as always.
15 days later
Just a bit of an update. Recently I was forced to finally walk away from a company that I helped build. I've spent three years of my life, putting my own dreams on hold to try and create something that I thought we all had wanted and have something that could support us all.
I was rehired at an old job that I didn't ever want to go back to and am now on a completely different schedule and an erratic schedule. Plus, a pretty steep pay decrease and much less freedom. I've also been picking up any odd job that I can because of my financial state.
I didn't want too, but I dumped a lot of my own money and time into trying to save the company, I thought we all wanted too. I was wrong. Now I really don't have any way to move to find another job or any other options at this time for work in my area, so I've been trying accepting this new life of mine.
Its been very frustrating for me to look back and see all the hard work over the past three years amount to nothing, especially when I could've been spending that time doing something for myself.
I've been channeling that frustration into trying to create business of my own. I figure I really don't have anything to lose anymore and getting something started now is better than waiting.
It's basically taken away all of what little free time I have now, so art school is probably going to be on hold for a while as I try to get myself back on track and try to build something that will allow me to regain some of the freedom that I have worked so hard to gain over the past three years.
I really don't know if it'll amount to anything, but I'm giving it my best shot. I have to. So this might be my last post for a while, but I will return when I can. Hopefully, it'll be with happier news.
Anyways, I guess this is good bye for bit everyone. I hope you all stay well and find even more success than what you've already found.
So thank you and again, I hope to be back sooner than later. Thank you as always for reading.
