近況報告／Current situation report

現在作成の手が止まっています。

昨年末に無理をした影響が出てきたようで、年始からどんどん進捗が悪くなっていました。

そして手が止まってしまったのでこの１週間お休みしていました。

そういう状態なので、現在作成中のスイプリのラストシーンと正月絵は完成が大きく遅れます。

楽しみに待っている皆様、本当に申し訳ありません。

まだ回復途中なので作成は再開していませんが、そろそろイケそうな感じはしています。

とはいえ、ここからまた無理をしても同じことを繰り返すことになるので焦らずマイペースで作成を進めていこうと考えています。

なのでスイプリのラストシーンは２月中旬、正月絵は３月上旬に完成すると思います。

私が言うのもなんですが、完成を気長に待っていただけると幸いです。

最後にスイプリのラストシーンの進捗を貼っておきます。

改めて見ると直すところがいくつかありますね。

完成までもうしばらくお待ちください。

　　Hello to all my supporters!

　　I am currently taking a break. Because my speed of drawing illustrations has dropped drastically. I think the reason is probably fatigue. I had decided not to push myself too hard, but it seems that I felt impatient about the delay in the completion of my illustrations and unconsciously pushed myself too hard. Then, by pushing myself too hard, I fell further behind in the speed of illustration, became even more impatient, and then pushed myself too hard.... I seem to have fallen into such a negative cycle.

　　I think I have recovered quite well after taking a week off. However, I have not yet resumed drawing. I think I could probably paint if I wanted to. However, if I resume work halfway through my recovery, I may soon return to the same state I am in now. Therefore, this time, I would like to work on it again after I have recovered well. I am very sorry for the delay in the completion of the illustration.

　　My feeling is that I will be able to recover completely in a few more days. Then I will be able to draw new illustrations again. I know it's not for me to say, but I'd appreciate it if you could wait a little longer.

　Taking this week off has made me realize the importance of sleep. I wasn't cutting down on my sleep, but I realized that I was doing things on a daily basis that were lowering the quality of my sleep. I also learned some signs of fatigue (such as a discrepancy between the room temperature and the perceived temperature, or my favorite coffee not tasting as good, etc.). I will take what I learned this time as a learning experience and apply it in the future. And we will be able to provide a steady supply of cute illustrations of girls in diapers.

Thank you for reading to the end.
