Late new years journal by JackMcslay

I guess I might as well make a retrospect of my past year (also because I don't want to keep the raffle journal on my front page for a long time).

I would say that my past year was both accomplishing and unaccomplishing. Thing is that I didn't manage to do everything I wanted, I hoped that I would have been able to launch a commercial game by the end of the year and start another as well as other projects to stablish myself as an independent developer. I accomplished none of said goals.

However, I think I learned a lot about myself and that I kept having the unconscious thought of "don't try not to be dissappointed". At some point, I don't know why (actually I have a clue why but don't want to talk about it), I snapped and began looking at other people's accomplishments and seeing myself capable of same said accomplishments. The other day I was browsing online stores for art supplies and realized - I was browsing online stores for art supplies - I haven't been this motivated toward art in years, in fact this might be the most motivated towards art I've ever been because back when I last did art regularly I didn't feel capable of doing the amazing drawings and illustrations I wanted to do, something which I do not feel anymore. I have been doodling and practicing 3d modeling a whole bunch and FINALLY trying to get myself to draw directly with a tablet, because trying to get traditional lineart to go well as well as cleaning scanned linearts, is a poin in the ass.

Let's see what the future will hold, hope I can keep it and make this a new art life for me.
Cheers!
