HOW TO MONSTER 10: dragons - EXERCISE SHEET // sfw

[UPDATE:]

it's finally here: the exercise sheet for HTM10, themed on drawing and designing dragons. download the .zip below to access the 5-page PDF + individual pngs of each page. 

thank you everybody for being so incredibly understanding, patient, and supportive as i took some extra time to work on this. it allowed me to create something much better than if i had rushed it just to get it out in time for the original deadline. i hope you find all these exercises useful, and i'd be so excited to see if you draw something!

[Original post:]

COMING SOON. the HTM10 exercise sheet will be here in a few days. please keep reading - full transparency ahead.

i have worked myself into full on burnout mode and rn i'm on the verge of a collapse. june has been shit for my mental well-being and for that reason i fell behind on my schedule a bit. still, i have been working really, really hard to finish all my june patreon content on time, until only the HTM exercise sheet remained. i wanted to get it done by june 30th, as planned. but this morning i woke up feeling like i'd gotten run over by a dozen buses. my body has finally broken down from the stress and lack of sleep, and i'm feeling physically sick. all my joints hurt and i feel like i'm gonna vomit, but nothing is coming up. my head feels like a goddamn fishbowl and my body just feels weak and heavy. then there's the mental toll of burnout. i just want to curl up into a lil ball and cry my eyes out.

as much as i hate it, i have to admit defeat. i won't be able to get the exercise sheet done before the clock hits midnight tonight. it's gonna have to be a couple days late, but i promise that i'll finish it as soon as i can. a few days from now i'll update this post with the finished PDF, and i'll do my best to make it worth the wait. but first i need to take a couple of days off, because rn i'm falling apart both mentally and physically.  once i feel better, finishing the exercise sheet is going to be my #1 priority. ( if you want to prepare for it, might i recommend reading HTM10 again, so all the info and ideas are fresh in your head :> )

reaching this breaking point has been an eye opening experience for me, and going forward i'm going to devise a plan for how i can work smarter and plan shit better, to prevent this from happening again. right now i can only ask for your patience and understanding.

thank you. so much. <3
