Merry Christmas & Happy New Year! Thank you, What's In For 2021, Artbook Vol.13 Release Date, 3 New Emojis, Commission Update, Draknier Story Schedule, Conclusion

Merry Christmas / Happy New Year / Happy Holidays Everyone!

While 2020 has been tough for everyone, I hope that you are doing well and still find time to enjoy or have fun.

For this occassion, I made a JRPG christmas theme & Melia new year artwork.
Also new artwork WIPs, while I can't say all of them are able to make it to vol. 13, there are also more stuff that I have not included here.

Thank you!

Can't believe I'm living the dream now. If I were to ask the 'me' from few years ago if this would be possible, the old 'me' would probably have a hard time believing that I'lll be able to work this much personal artworks/content+ personal project, make fanarts of games I lov & enjoy, and also inspires me would be possible.

While I did  tell me myself to persevere, I actually roughly did give myself a deadline that if things didn't work out, things will have to change and I might not be here as of this day creating content like these. That's just the harshness of reality, after all, one needs to work to make a living. That's why I'm really grateful for your support who made it possible for me continue.

To be able to make these 12 volumes of personal artworks. Really a big thank you for making it happen!

Also a bunch of fun emojis!

What's in store for 2021

Working on the artbook for a long, I can say that I have somewhat have a grasp now of where to take or what its content to be.

During 2020, I spend most of time working  and figuring out the artbook series, for this year, I'm looking into properly integrating a time to work on my personal project Draknier Story, although there will be a shift with the pipeline/process/progression, the main end goal is the same.

Occasional stream, I failed to do one before the year ends, hopefully, I'll be able to do more this year. I'm also exploring options what could be possibly be fun or entertaining to watch.

There are just many things I want to do & create now that I have this opportunity, so please look forward to it!

Content Delivery Schedule for January

Artbook delivery will resume on 2021 and it will be the 13th artbook which will release on the 1st week of January. I might also combine a jrpg emojis update if I can.

3rd week will be a draknier story update(Details below).

3 New Emojis Added

Celica - Hmph
Tron Bonne - Hohoho
Fiora - Hello

Commission

Sorry for delay always! Hopefully, by 2nd or 4th week, I'll be able to accept application, at least for the protagonists/supporters first before the inquires from the public list. For now, I'm focusing on artbook vol. 13 so I'll be able to deliver it on time.

Unlike in the past where I'm planning to dedicate a certain period for only doing commission even at the expense of possibly pausing the patreon, albeit slow, I'll be attempting to work through the list on the side while I continue to work on the patreon content.

Draknier Story Update

There's a lot to cover so I'll be doing a merged update of the previous topics to cover & the january update which will be on 3rd week of January.

A tid bit about the update is that, there will be a bit of shift in the progression & pacing, while the project continues to retain its original end goal.

2020 taught me a lot especially with figuring out how much time and resources doing for each specific task.

The original goal of the artbook is to be something of a sketchbook with a few colored artworks, although it evolve into something much more bigger which I am happy to do so as its also a way for me to deliver more content while I work on the drakneir story on the side.

Conclusion

I had many plans & work-in-progress(not just the artwork wips) stuff for content from 2020, although I can't show them yet until I am really sure that I'll be deliver it not long after I announce those it.

I'd say that there were a lot of stuff I was not able to do and also deliver, I already was expecting a downfall, but I can't believe many still stay to continue to support me or hang around the community, so thank you to everyone who continues to support me & those who supported me in the past! All I can say is I'll continue to do my best, work harder, play harder(more games to increase the option for fanart materials), grow my skill as an artist/content creator, bring in more discoveries and fun stuff, & to inspire!

Onwards to 2021, lets look forward to more fun stuff (๑˃̵ᴗ˂̵)و
