Hey peeps!

Been a bit, sorry about the quiet. Just been kind of up and down lately. My health has been kind of wobbly (nothing too bad, just haven’t been feeling well and my reoccurring infections have come back recently) and there’s been a lot of stuff going on at home that I’ve been having to divert my attention to.

I’m trying to fix my schedule and be a bit more consistent with my sleep, plus I have a dentist appointment next Wednesday (August 11), to see about getting some x-rays and getting a final estimate on how much it’ll be to take care of everything. A lot going on.

Not to mention, as of Saturday, August 7th, I will be thirty-five years old. Mentally, sometimes, I don’t feel any older than I ever have, but sometimes I’m just really friggin’ tired. It’s been a bit too much now and again, lately, and I’ve never quite caught up from the big shake-up a few years ago, but I’m doing my best.

My projects are slowly coming along. I’m hoping that Various Happenings Ch.5 will be finished this month, though I’m not making any promises. It’s been an up and down rollercoaster of enthusiasm and exhaustion, but the key to getting to the end is getting past where most artists would quit. I’ve been there a few times, so if I can keep shrugging that off, then we’ll see it eventually. I’ve learned a lot of things about what I’m doing, so hopefully, in the future, I’ll be able to use those to my advantage.

There are other things that are coming along as well, though they’re going slowly and I haven’t really put them out in the forefront yet, so I’ll keep chipping away until they’re actually ready.

It’s a little disheartening, but I’m trying my best.

I’ve got three commissions in the works, one of which is just about finished; then I have one I have to follow up on before I’m done. With my attention divided in so many directions, it’s been a bit of a time getting everything taken care of.

But we’ll get there!

Maybe I can get something nice for my birthday, like… pants or something.

Anyway, more or less, I’m working and it’s taking a while, but hopefully, soon, things will start showing up as I finish them!

I hope you are all doing well, and I thank you all for your patience.

Take care of yourselves,

~Spooky

Hey peeps!

Things are going along pretty well! Going to take a little break this week from VH for my own sake and work on other things a little bit. I'm getting VERY close to the end, but I've been getting exhausted and panicky on it, so I'll let it sit for a week or so before throwing myself back into it. 

I've finished a lot of the components and all I have left to do is the rest of the grunt work and polishing! The first third is completely finished and the latter two thirds are mostly done save for some assets, so that's fantastic.

It's so close, though, I can feel it! I can't wait until I can finally show it off!

Otherwise, things are happening! Not much more to tell than that, so we'll just leave the poxes to their work. ^v^

Hey everyone!

Things are chugging along. Going to make some effort to get specific stuff done and really work my butt off in the coming weeks! Got a lot of things that I need to do and while it's taken me a while to get back into the groove, I feel like it's happening, all be it slowly.

Things are happening! Not much more to tell than that, so we'll just leave the poxes to their work. ^v^

Hey peeps!

Not much to talk about!

I'm feeling a good bit better and I'm feeling more productive as of late! Hopefully that'll keep up and I'll be able to finally convalesce properly.

Because of the holiday and my roomate, Dicy,’s birthday, I’ll be only doing one stream this week. Hopefully I’ll make more headway on the commissions I’ve got. I was pretty happy with my work last week, so let’s keep that train going. I’m getting closer on VH Ch.5, too, so I’m feeling it shouldn’t be too long now. Maybe this month will be it!

Once I clear out my commissions, I can start rounding up the leftover Patreon stuff and what I owe, if anyone wants to claim those and soon, I hope to have my slate clean, finally!

Nothing else to say! Hope you’re all enjoying your holiday! (Or if you’re not in the States, I hope you’re having a good week nonetheless!)

Hey everyone!

So it’s been a few weeks and let me tell you, it’s been a bit rough. Starting a couple of weeks ago, I came down sick with a chest cold. It really wasn’t that big of a deal, but there were days when I just couldn’t breath really well, and I had a hard time sleeping, which lead me to missing that week’s update because on Monday I just wasn’t up to working on it or doing any of the updating.  

Really, it’s been hard to work on a lot of stuff over the last couple of weeks. But I figured after a couple of days, I’d feel better and I’d still stream anyway, so it wouldn’t be that bad. Then on that following Friday, I came down with a toothache that night and suddenly I was very ill.

Not only did I have a toothache that pain killers didn’t seem to be effective on, I had constant drainage which made me unable to breathe and was dehydrating me to the point that whenever I would try and drink water, it would immediately turn to mucus in the back of my throat. There were times on Saturday and Sunday when I felt like I might actually have to go to the hospital.

So last week, I just completely took the week off. I was too sick to do anything until about Wednesday and then I finally started feeling better. I know, because I started REALLY wanting to draw things, so I kind of went nuts doodling for a few days.

But, now I feel… okay. The cough is still there, and I still have moments where I’m suddenly tired or a bit achey, but I feel a bit better overall, and more or less capable of doing things. I still get urpy a bit and my stomach still gets a bit upset from the drainage now and again, but I feel like I’m doing better.

The update is a bit late, I understand, but I had to work on some spreadsheets and such to get everything organized before getting this up to date.

I’m going to do my best to get everything taken care of from here on out. I’ve still got my commission work on the hook, but I’m going to push and try and get that done. Then, I’ve got Various Happenings which is still being worked on. Frankly, I’d like to put out what I’ve got, but it’s still not complete, so I just have to keep on trucking until it’s finally done.

Other projects are being worked on, certainly, and I’ve got a few things on the table that I’m really excited about, but for now, I want to clear out all of the dust from earlier this year and try to finally get things set straight.

It’s been a long few years since the end of 2018… and life’s been rough. I’m hoping to break into a new era very soon. But for now, we’ll just keep at it.

Hope you’ve all had a wonderful Midsummer, and if you’re in a place where the heat is rising, stay safe and stay cool.

Hey everyone!

So I went to the dentist and we had a chat and they had a look at the inside of my mouth. I've been set up for x-rays and a deep examination, but that won't be until August 11th, unless there's a cancellation in the meantime. Hopefully it'll be sooner rather than later, but right now that's the date we're looking at!

Commissions came along well last week and I've started most of them by now! Hopefully we'll be able to get a couple knocked down this week and I can start poking people on the on-call list and see about getting THAT whittled down, too!

I've been working on some projects that I don't really have much to say about just yet! I kind of got burnt out on VH towards the beginning of may but I think I'm back there again, and I'm ready to go!

I eam eager to show off some of the current developments, and I hope you all will like them, so we'll see if we can't get it finished, soon! Hopefully future updates will be much much faster coming, though, since I've learned a lot about the systems I'm using.

Otherwise I'm just trying to rest my wrist when I can and pace myself on all these things!

Summer's getting into full swing now, and it's about time for the really hot days to start, so I hope you're all taking care of yourselves~!

Hey peeps!

Not a lot to report things are still going as they've been!

My Mermay streams were a success and I'll have the fruits of those posted up just after I finish posting up this post right here!

I've got a dentist visit tomorrow, though it's just another consultation. I'm more confident about this one, but we'll see what happens when I meet them in person!

 And then... more work! Mostly on commissions and Various Happenings! Hopefully we can get a bit more headway this week on both!

That's all I have to say for the moment, so thanks for having a look and I'll see you next week~!

Hey peeps!

Not a lot to report on this week! Stuff going on behind the scenes but nothing really to show at the moment! Same as last week pretty much!

May is almost over, so I figure it’s about time to do some Mermay streams towards the end of this week! We’ll have a lot of fun, and then next week we’ll slam into commissions and see if we can’t clear off the list by the first couple weeks of June!

That’s more or less everything at the moment! Thanks for staying tuned, everyone, and I’ll chat you all next week!

Hey there, peeps!

What’s there to say? I’m bouncing around between things at the moment, trying to get as much done as I can. Things are still coming along as they’ve been, slowly but surely.

My hand seems to be healing well enough. I get some pain in it, but it’s not been enough to keep me up or stop me from drawing. Got a compression glove today to see if that helps!

I got a referral to another dentist. The last one seemed really rushy and I felt like I was inconveniencing them by being there, but they were kind enough to take their time to speak with me and gave me someone else to talk to, so I’ll be setting up an appointment with them soon. Hopefully we can get things to move forward a bit easier in the future.

Commissions are coming along and everything is stable at the moment! I’m just trucking along as fast as I can manage.

So yeah, just trying to push some of the stuff I’m juggling to the end while keeping everything together. There’s nothing pushing on my tremendously, it’s just that my health is a little rickety so I can’t push as hard as I used to at the moment. Hopefully that changes soon.

Thanks for hanging around, everyone! I’ll keep the updates coming. <3

Hope you’re all having a fine late spring/early summer and are taking care of yourselves. Don’t forget to get vaccinated as soon as you can!

See you all next week!

Hey peeps!

Things are going pretty well! Commissions are chugging along and though I’m going to have to push a bit, I’m hoping to have my current batch cleared out by the beginning of June. A month or so later than I expected, but that’s how it goes sometimes. I'm going to put in more effort to making sure things get posted as well this month. I've got the batch poster in Postybirb and all that, so I'll start loading things in and chipping away at when I have time. Might set aside a few days just for that in the coming weeks.

I’m also hoping to have Ch.5 of Various Happenings ready sometime in June. I’m really trying hard to get it all put together for y’all as soon as I can manage, and things are coming along well enough. It’s just a lot of drawing, that’s all!

Stuff is moving again with my teeth and I’ve got an appointment for May 10th for a consultation and seeing if I can get some price points and recommendations from one of the local dentists. Hopefully by my birthday this year, I’ll have everything all fixed up and a fresh new set of chompers ready to go!

Arm is still hurting a bit, but I know it’ll take a few weeks to heal completely. I’m just trying to not overwork it, and while I’m doing my best to draw as much as I can, I’m taking frequent breaks and trying to stop or pause when I start to get twinges. Hopefully it clears up soon, but I’ve got some money saved up just in case I have to go get an x-ray or something.

That’s the current situation! Things are alright, more or less! I hope you’re all doing well, too!

Remember, streams are now on Jottor.tv and the chat is on the Fox Saliant Studios Discord, so check us out there!

A joyous (if a little late) Beltane to all of you! Take care of yourselves!

See you next week!
