Stuck in the past. Kinda sick of drawing, not very active on here

Posted a little comic strip to the website. I had the idea to do old-fashioned interstitial comics between stories for a while now, but I don't actually know if I'll do more of them.

1930s Newspaper-style comic

[Vent/blog post on a blog website] I've had no reason to draw anymore. Doesn't feel like burn out, just feels like I'm "done". Plying random mutuals with gifts and finishing that comic were the few things keeping me going. Hope the spark comes back some day, but I guess I don't care if it doesn't.

Finally gave and bought CSP after pirating it for so long. I think my tablet feels more responsive with this official, updated version, though I might just be trying to cope with the fact that I spent $45 on a piece of software I already had.

Could someone kindly recommend a good csp brush for sketching? I feel like I have to fight my pen every time I'm sketching something and it kills any fun I might have. Much appreciated!

Quick little doodle to test out some new brushes. I'd want Marie to look more like this if I ever did an issue 2. I kinda like the idea of painted backgrounds, but I'm not so sure yet.

I'm really phoning in these last few comic pages tbh. I don't need to just get better at background for the next one, I need to figure out a process that isn't painfully boring too

(personal shit) I don't know if it's all the medication my psychiatrist is urging me to take but I sleep all day, I'm still exhausted, and my brain feels like goo. I'm really bummed out man. Trying to make things better but it's so difficult when I can't keep my eyes open. Feel very isolated

I woke up from a "nap" at 1am and I have real obligations I should really focus on, but my mind won't let me do anything until I finish this comic page before the arbitrary deadline that I set. Very tired, can't sleep, mind overwhelmed because I have more than one thing to think about. I hate it...
