Well folks, it is truly without a doubt Go-time. Everything, and I do mean, everything is going to be kicked into gear and then some.

To depart from a more profressional tone for a hot minute, this means that a lot of things throughout my life will be revamped and repaired in order to ensure success. That entails everything, from my work ethic to my general behavior, to my art style and level of detail. I am going to be extraordinarily busy, as the financial situation of my family has taken a turn to the point where it's going to take everything I have and then some to turn it around. With steadily deteoriating health and morale, it's proving to be a challenge beyond belief.

So with that, I do apologize so that now, we may move forward into something more fitting of a journal for the beginning of the month.

I have a monumentous backlog to address, and needless to say, it is going to be a pain. The issue is that while I can move forward past it, a lot of this backlog contains many vital pieces towards what I hope can be careers in illustration, graphic design, animation, and game design, to say the least. I will say right now, please excuse me for flooding your inboxes with images and possibly even journals.

The games I have been working on have hit a sort of roadblock in terms of progress. This is due to the various things that have happened over the course of the last few months, as things were rather strong around March. I will be creating folders on every one of my accounts that will allow for such an action so that I can actually have proper organization. Things are going to be getting crazy in the immediate future, so needless to say, do excuse me if materials get somewhat sparse.

Before I go on any further, I would like to say that one of my best friends has a birthday in the first week of August. Therefore, much of what will be uploaded throughout the month is going to be seen in the weeks afterwards. Please forgive me, but this is a dear friend that has been through some of the darkest times of my life with me. I would like to give him the proper attention and gratitude he deserves.

So, onto the rest of things. The Gundam fan comic is going to be getting more attention. As I've said before, this is a collaboration between my brother and I, so progress within the story is mainly dependant upon him. Being the main mechanical and environmental designer, as well as the secondary character designer, do be prepared to see various things related to the comic in the near future. Being a huge Gundam fan, I can safely say that this will be a huge objective to me.

Halloween is coming around the corner, and Skunktember coming up next month, things will certainly be kicking up. I will do my utmost best in having things done well ahead of time, so here goes nothing.

A good number of animations will be coming on as well. All of them will be proof of concept pieces rather than full on videos, mainly so that I can work out a clear process and style.

I am also planning on working on an advent calendar. December is going to be, hands down, one of the most busiest months of the year. Not only because of the sheer artistic workload, but also because of a possible career; It will be Christmas time, and dear lord knows what will be happening then. As to be expected from an advent calendar, there will be one illustration for every day of the month. I am currently implementing various methods to make sure that I can have that accomplished. So that way, even if I do not have internet access at my own home, I can still upload fully colored and detailed images for the occasion.

I have had a grand deal of mods planned over the years, such as those for Team Fortress 2, Left 4 Dead 2, and of course, games like Dawn of War: Soulstorm, Fallout 4, or Skyrim. Now that I have a highly advanced rig, I can properly make the related mods at a very reasonable pace. I'll likely detail what's on the list later on, as A)I don't want to advertise for something that will never come, and B)I'm kind of protective when it comes to details on projects. More on this later on upon newer things coming along.

Commissions are still likely to come around September. Getting a business email going is first in priority, as well as the necessary documents that will keep track of future customers. I will be working on the ToS quite thoroughly to make sure that things will be satifactory. To give a quick rundown of the things I will be covering for commissions, they will be (But certainly not limited to) illustrations, animations, icons, busts, CG renders, mods, and even physical statues. Once again, more on this later.

I'll definitely be doing a lot of OCs, as I have created quite a number of them over the years. I have managed to even recover the details of some that were destined to be created from my younger days (Though anything dating back before my sixth-grade years would be a miracle should it ever resurface). So apologies in advance if there are too many OCs to behold.

Once again, if you would like to contact me, I do have a Facebook, Twitter, and Steam. I will have a Discord soon, so do be sure to keep an eye out for that. Links for my Facebook and Twitter are right down below.

And last but not least, I will be acquiring numerous other accounts for posting my material, such as Gumroad and Artstation. Streaming is also a goal for me, but as I am a traditional artist at the moment, I have to look into getting a camera, a stand, and a better internet connection. Games will be much easier to deal with, so it's just a matter of optimization.

So now, that will be all. If you have any questions, do feel free to ask. I will gladly answer whatever is presented to me. Thank you all for your time, and for choosing to read. I hope to be able to bring out the best of my passion and creativity for you all to see.

Please do take care, and may your life be filled with many blessing and fortunes.
