Long overdue update of things.

Posted by DioShiba - April 16th, 2024


HEY NEWGROUNDS COMMUNITY


Sorry for the lack of update on things lately. Major life changes in the past few weeks and responsibilities with several of my priorities have been expanding as of late.


One of the first things that I need to get out of the way, I moved into a new apartment!


So now I got my own place to myself and that's going to be better for me in the long run to have my own independence moving forward. I've ended up getting enough room to have my own office space so that's super helpful on that note.


Updates on projects:

So far as the projects that I've been working on, I'd like to make a quick note that the Zero Hour team is still looking for more pixel artists! we've managed to get some more help here and there and this is a project where my responsibilities have expanded on. So if you want to get some work done on a project and get some training on pixel art, we're more than happy to give you a shot to try out for the team!


I have also had some paid work opportunities come my way very recently, not really anything I can talk about for professional reasons at this time. Regardless the time I'm able to commit to some of my own personal work has become very limited. That isn't to say that I won't continue drawing but between that and the stuff I've been up to lately there may not be as much coming into my art gallery for the next coming weeks.


So with that being said, I think it's fair I give that explanation to those who have been following me as of late. By the off chance I do upload something it will very likely be when specific projects such as the Transformers collab come out. There was some work I did for that a few months ago but personally I would rather hold off on uploading what I have done until the whole collab comes out. I just don't feel right releasing the work for it just yet!


Recent Happenings:

There isn't really much else that I have to add on what is going on my end. Before I moved into my apartment I touched on how I was able to go to a Bruins game in the NHL Thread. That being said it was my first game! ended up on the jumbotron, got a alternate jersey for the centennial season in addition to the one I already got.

Do I think that the Bruins will get the Stanley cup this year? ehhhh I have my doubts. I want to be honest and say that I want to be optimistic but the realist in me is doubting that they're gonna go the distance after tonight's game and yesterday's game. But they got a spot so I'm not gonna be too mad for what it is. (Even though I think Don Sweeney should get fired before anyone else at this point.)


I'm also going to be looking into new website platforms to host my portfolio soon. It's been on my to do list however given my current priorities between my day job, side gigs, and doing all the other grown up crap that comes with keeping an apartment while maintaining mental health it's been a game of juggling different responsibilities it's been pushed to the back burner of all things.

I hope the first Bruins game you saw was fun!

You know that feeling you get when you're a kid on Christmas or a very festive holiday? It was like that except the feeling of wonder and awe was heightened to an extreme that I couldn't even comprehend.

It wasn't just fun it was a fucking blast.

@DioShiba I'm really glad to hear that. It looks like you were in the 100 level seats too, hope you got to see some great plays!
