@Totalanimefan: lol i have no social live just about
so with working that much, i very rarely had time to breath let alone function.
it's so weird not working that much now?? because i got incredibly used to it xD

also, 40 hours a week or more does absolutely suuuuuck omg, don't be sorry one single bit! <3

also, i do remember how popular they once were, not that far back, but, i still remember some of the golden years omgg

@MimikyuToo: not a problem!
and thank you! it's been a bit since I've done any creating, kills me that I've still got fan art of tifa just chillin, waiting to be finished c':

@arcius: May I ask why you stopped creating?
I know me personally life just doesn't give me enough time xD
Plus my pen for my ipad stopped working.
I'm hoping to get a tablet soon for my computer to start doodling again.

@MimikyuToo: i honestly had a lot going on and not enough time to make anything orz
almost constant burnout state, it's fun ;u;
I've at least been able to upgrade from a standard drawing tablet to one of the big digital screen ones, but it's taken me a hot minute to get adjusted to it to say the least xD


@Totalanimefan: i loved the fact that it was easier to connect with people from all around, it's not as easy on standard social media nowadays imo
they've become ultra sketchy places x.x

@arcius: Ahhh, yea I get that honestly. I was/am the same way.
I get like tiny doodle spurts but like I'm burnt out on doing big pieces xD
Oooooh that's awesome! Hopefully you'll get use to it. I loved my ipad but I think when I switch over to a tablet it'll be hard for me to transition. I've been looking at screen ones to help the transition but I think it'd be financially better to use a tablet that doesn't have a screen lol but we shall see how much I can save up for one XD
Do you mind me asking which brand you went with? I've been looking into huion ones currently.

@MimikyuToo: I've been running with a brand called XP Pen for a few years now, the customer service department isn't my most favourite, but their It department is phenomenal omgomg
price wise, I'm a big fan, and product quality is absolutely wonderful as well! biggest draw-back i have is in terms of the software, when i first started running with XP Pen, there was a metric boatload of stuff i had to disable in the windows registry to make things function properly due to the fact that windows 10 is suuuuper fussy with software that is more or less "3rd party" or not issued by Microsoft. it's reallly stupid ackk
but, XP Pen is my brand! I'm overall really happy with it ; u;

(Although, photoshop also isn't a big fan of xp pen from what ive noticed, but it functions beautifully with any other program I've used!)

@Qiqi Agatha: this is true! c:

@Totalanimefan: I do recall being on for a handful of older events, it's been a while since I've hoped on and pushed to get event items though oof
I gotta get caught up on those things ; u;

@MimikyuToo: Yeah.. wee bit of a pain on that front, although i think most of the issues i had have been since resolved? or i hope anyway xD

Sai is an awesome program! it's been a while since I've used it, but it is awesome!
I've been using a mix of photoshop and clipstudio when i do make things!

@arcius: XD One would really hope xD

My friends use it and I got to play around on it and it was super cool and easy to use in my opinion. Plus it runs on like anything. /goes to look up what clipstudio is/ Ahhh that's pretty legit~! I used photoshop for a long time never heard of clipstudio till today though. xD

@MimikyuToo: sai's compatibility is absolutely beautiful, tbh.
I loved how simple it was, tbh!

clip is a bit more towards like comic related stuff, although has a whole slew of wonderful features also included that ive yet to play with!
it's been around for a good hot bit now

another program worth looking at is Krita as well!
i adored the ever loving out of krita!
