the girlie !!!
I wanted to follow up, since I'm the anon here, seeing this reply helped motivate me to tackle teaching myself animation using my main drawing program, since that was something I kept putting off.
When I think of artists that have motivated me to continue pursuing drawing, you are one of the ones that cross my mind and I wanted to share my appreciation for that.
Anon!! Come back here!!!
That makes me emo that I’m one of the artist that keeps you motivated! But also keep making art even if I like one did just magically disappear or like don’t make art for some reason!!!Keep having fun and making art!!
I saw your color palette name and I’m not sure if you’ve lost someone, but I’m sorry if you did.
I did, and it's part of why I'm a bit less active on my socials than I was. I didn't want time to just leave him behind, so when I went outside and saw the sun for the first time in what felt like forever, and honestly was a long time as winter tends to be a very dark time of year, I made up my mind that I'd rather have something inspiring dedicated to him, and the palette was one of those things. I also have been slowly working on attempting to draw out some of the memories I have, which has put me behind on some of the art I'm supposed to be doing. He had done so much for me. I do appreciate those reaching out, though. That being said, I wasn't sure if I should respond to it all, so I opted to respond to one, to at least acknowledge those who did reach out between then and now, as it's a bit hard still, even though it's been over half a year now. I promise I'm not ignoring anyone.

another edition to my atla series, which you can view below!
Studio Ghibli artbook! Sounds like the perfect gift. (I love collecting artbooks myself.) And fabric (and not to mention, pocky) is always nice to receive. And you are making your own dolls! I like to make things myself, so if you don't mind, I would absolutely love to see your creations. Also, how has your day been? Anything fun or memorable? - DCMK 2/2
I love artbooks, and I tend to do art studies off of em from time to time, they are definitely an ideal gift for me. I've been looking at some of the character design and production stuff I've gotten ahold of for Astro Boy 2003 recently, so having another Studio Ghibli artbook is something I'm excited about. And I love multiple flavours of pocky so I'll have something to much on while I'm drawing or sewing.
I'll have to remember to post some of my dolls I've made at some point, maybe I'll grab some of my Atom dolls (I don't have all of them anymore :'( but I have a few from varying times) and maybe I'll post a picture of one of my paintings for a university class with Atom in it, too, just cause it'll be fitting. I'm working on my Conan one still so it'll be a minute before he's in sharable condition.
My day yesterday had ups and downs, today has started well, though! I plan to go to physical therapy, and spend a good portion of the day sewing, working on my secret santa gifts, and watching DetCo, so I have a fulfilling day of creating ahead of me. I have a lot of free time at the moment, since I'm a university student and not in any active classes this moment.
Happy to hear you’ve already seen and enjoyed the first 2 movies, I’m really fond of them (and the 3rd too; another awesome movie), they have so much charm! As far as explosions and destroyed buildings go: there’ll be more of those, so my advice is not to get too attached to certain buildings. :’) And gosh, I agree with you on that: my country hasn’t been the best when it comes to anime localisation, and there are so many discrepancies between the dub script and animation. - DCMK 1/4
"Oh no the building(s)!" - me every DetCo movie from now on.
