Hey everyone,


I realize I'm a few minutes late but I am indeed streaming Expedition 33 right now.


Would be nice to have a few people come along, might not be a long stream tonight but I did want to play it for a bit at the very least.

IT'S OFFICIAL, MY WEBSITE HAS NOW LAUNCHED

iu_1442295_3993712.png

While there are going to be more things that I add a long the way this has been a thing that has been long over due and I can not think of a more fitting thing for my birthday to share the new website portfolio.


Eventually I'll be adding more content to the site as I go along but for now, I'm more than pleased to announce that I now have an official place to be the front face of my work. I'll be posting some things here that I don't normally post here, throwing in a new blog in the near future, and when all is said and done I'll be adding in a new schedule and start updating that for a few art streams.

HELLO FELLOW NG'ers HOW YOU ALL DOING?


First order of business I'd like to share with you some times I'm planning on doing some streaming via Twitch


There will be an art stream tomorrow Wednesday at 9:00pm so I may finish up the piece I had going on the last stream.


Additionally, I also plan on playing Expedition 33 this coming Saturday at 8:30pm EST.


NOW FOR UPDATES REGARDING MY WEBSITE


So this is something that I have been in the works on for the past couple of weeks. Me being generally clueless and having to look up some tutorials online, and utilizing one as a bit of a template, I've made some progress in making my website.


iu_1441067_3993712.webp


Obviously, this is a WIP.


I plan on doing some more as I go along but I would say that for the time being what I am going to do at the very least is get the gallery set up and have the main portion of my website ready to go for launch, that being my portfolio. Which I'm hoping will be this Friday on my birthday.


You may see me on the programming board in case I need help with HTML, Javascript, and CSS since that isn't exactly a strong suit of mine. Something I plan on remedying over time by getting myself a couple of books on the topics and maybe getting on Khan Academy more often to kind of help myself in this respect.


As for why I'm kind of rushing into launching my site and doing the work on the go... I think it's no secret with how everyone online has been reacting to recent political events concerning the UK, EU, and US overstepping some boundaries online and trying to enforce online censorship. Tom has already made a post about the full details in the news. It also doesn't help that would be activist groups such as Collective Shout who I honestly think are the bigger hypocrites in all this for trying to push VISA and MasterCard to censor games on Itch.io, Steam, and even going as far to impact things elsewhere on the internet.


I'd like to make it very clear that while I do not feel that the internet is intended to be for kids, I also feel strongly about censorship being an issue of concern as this also impacts my presence on social media as well.


With that said, there has been more of an incentive for me to finally get to work on my website and push for it to get live. While it will serve as the front face for my online presence and showcase the best of what I can do with my work. I also have other plans for it as I feel that it would make things easier to organize where I'm active and when I plan on doing future streams for twitch which, as of late I've found to have been having fun with.


Needless to say this will go hand in hand with what I do on here at Newgrounds since it would be of upmost interest to keep my activity on here for the most part even in spite of everything that's going on.


In any case, that's all I have for updates on my end.


Stay safe everyone!

Had to do some editing for this one because tbh I doubt anyone has the patience for a full 4 hour video but I did want to cut out some of the meat in the stream and make this a bit more concise.



You can view the final piece here:


Obviously some changes were made from the stream but I did want to at least show the process.

Alright so given the recent news today I got an itch to draw and this time I intend to go a bit more all out with this one.


You've probably already seen my last post but given that Ozzy played a part in how I grew up as one of the many rock musicians I'd feel kind of bad if I didn't go out of my way to do a small tribute.

And I'll be playing a bit of black sabbath. No I don't care if I get a warning from twitch on this I think for once I would rather do this the right way to honor a legend.


UPDATE: Final Piece

Rock icon and prince of darkness Ozzy Osbourne passes away 76 years young.


iu_1433288_3993712.jpg


Kind of goes without saying but given his controbutions to the rock genre he's always had the most utmost respect from me growing up.


He's one of the big names that I listened to growing up. I'm happy he lived the best life he could and it doesn't go understated that he had a massive impact.


Long live Rock and Roll, Long Live Ozzy.
