Been mulling this lately, but I think the biggest issue with my art is that I don’t do it regularly enough. As in, everything *has* to be a full, finished piece when I need to condition myself into being okay with incomplete pieces. Especially when I can’t find perfect pose/perspective refs.

Someone I know is really trying their best to get me hooked on a VTuber from Phase Connect. I don’t know anything about PC, though, except that the culture around it is has a reputation for being more… unfiltered? Edgier?

Saw this going around on my feed last night, figured I'd give it a spin. I tried to frame this more as "what has influenced me and the way I think about video games long-term" rather than pure and simple favorites. Pretty sure that's the intent here. #My9Games

3x3 grid of the nine video games which this user believes influenced the most.
The top row consists of Etrian Odyssey IV: Legends of the Titan (3DS), Magician's Quest: Mysterious Times (DS), and Super Paper Mario (Wii).
The middle row consists of Azur Lane (Mobile), Sid Meier's Civilization V (PC), and Okami (PS2).
The bottom row consists of Fallout: New Vegas (PC), Yume Nikki (PC), and Touhou 6: The Embodiment of Scarlet Devil (PC).

Started playing Kowloon's Gate this week, even though I was supposed to be saving it for next month because I wanna binge some spooky games for October. It's kinda surreal finally playing this in English, after seeing multiple translation projects come and go unfinished over the years.

Y'all know how they say you can sense when rain's coming, just by how the atmosphere around you feels? That's me, but with depressive spells. Like I know I'm on the periphery right now and I'm trying my hardest not to slide onto the wrong side of the fence. 🙃

Opening up commissions for October - if you want your OCs all decked out in Halloween gear (or if you just want a regular cool drawing done by me) now’s the time to reach out! DM me or email me! I’ll keep it open for the month of October so don’t feel rushed!

Commissions open - $50 USD - email me at johncaden64@gmail.com if interested

I should probably make a new autumn/winter themed icon for myself, seeing as I’ve been using this one since January. But it’s also one with my ‘sona wearing Kraken colors, and hockey season’s about to start back up, so maybe not.

Weird couple of days where I’ve been going through the “did I suddenly forget how to draw” feelings. Might be because I’ve been trying to experiment with more dynamic poses/composition and it’s not looking as good as I’d hope. Trying not to lose my confidence over this.

Nearly bust a gut laughing at a slop ad I got the other day, not because it was one of those sketchy “new driving law in [your state here]” things, but because I live in Georgia, the state. And only a couple of background clips used were of Atlanta. The rest of it was from Georgia, the country.
