Might do it again tonight we'll see

I did. Was up til 3AM last night/early morning working on the new page...it's halfway done- eating some lunch and then I'm going to work on the page soem more today.

Hopefully I can finish it and move to the next one; would be really cool if I can get 10 pages done by the end of this week(the book is 23 pages in total)- that would make me upbeat going into March...

In other news...I'm doing Awesome Con in DC this summer(paid for my table)...a little nervous and a little excited at the same time. I've got no choice but to push through with my current projects now..!

So 2 cons within 2 weeks of each other.

Applied to a con- Rangerstop(Power Rangers) as a counter should I have not went with Awesome Con...and GOT ACCEPTED FOR IT. Unfortunately, I'm not gonna be able to do it because I'm doing Awesome Con(it's the same weekend)...

What if the Encanto gifts were reversed instead of disappearing?
Delores would be deaf, what would happen to the other people?
Random thoughts with Opal...

I'm locked in my room
My whole family is melting down
I might start in a minute because I'm hungry and thirsty but I'm too scared to leave
Just another normal day
We all get cranky when we're hungry

I am tired AF- had to work on a project for the past 2 days at my day job(that was handed to me at the last minute after revisions); both nights I didnt leave work until after midnight. So "yay" for overtime, but I'm tired...the only good part of last night was when I stopped and got IHOP for dinner- that chicken and waffles went down GOOD.

Slept til 1:30 this afternoon...doing laundry and some light cleaning now. Bout to go throw out some trash, drop off a few things at my storage, and order some Chinese takeout. Once I get back, I'm gonna watch some shows I didnt get to watch last night, and get back to working on my comic pages...

The Snickers commercials has taught us very little I guess

bronte448 2023-03-04 23:49:09 UTC #13722

Yep

brain thing that happened today

me [sitting down chilling drawing and gaming]: (❁´◡`❁)
random thought: what if someone misgendered one of your characters?
me:

it's not exactly a fear of mine but i don't look forward to the possibility of it happening so i'm determined make sure character bios are a thing i have both on the comics site as well as like small inserts at the end of chapters or something coz i refuse to claim that negative energy

bronte448 2023-03-07 19:12:19 UTC #13724

Around an hour's work on the wrong layer

LCT_m_a_d 2023-03-07 19:33:17 UTC #13725

I never wish that on my worst enemies

bronte448 2023-03-07 19:34:26 UTC #13726

I'm just mad at myself I didn't catch it earlier

LCT_m_a_d 2023-03-07 19:39:32 UTC #13727

I've heard that happen to lot's of really good artists even experienced ones so I wouldn't be too hard on yourself

My brother just reminded me how long it's been since I listened to Little Twelvetoes

There's a little arrow in the bottom right corner of every message, so when you press at it, you directly reply to them. You can also do the @ thing if you're not sure you reply to them, and you can do it with a few other people like this @apini

That time of month girls...

Kelheor 2023-03-11 20:44:47 UTC #13732

... Damn I love this show.

bronte448 2023-03-11 20:45:53 UTC #13733

It's usually worst around day 2 for me on that front

VibrantFox 2023-03-11 21:07:57 UTC #13734

first two are always a nightmare unless i've filled up on red meats or stuff with iron. honestly just dread it.

my new baby finally came and i'm super super happy! it doesn't have a disc drive tho so i've been improvising with program installations during the setup process (honestly feel lucky to have fam that knows comp stuff) Ah but I'm absolutely kind of flailing around trying to remember things that should be simple like file types and default programs or how to get the little icon to not be an icon but an image preview (been fighting it since yesterday to try n remember)

but ahhhhh the minute it arrived i wound up turning into a giddy idiot trying to be normal as the delivery guy handed it off and after shutting the door all i could do was hug it in my arms smiling. it's very cute and i'm nicknaming it after one of my fave fictional ai's

but hopefully i can get all my setup stuff done within these next few days and jump right back into my workflow and finally get some real productivity going
