Site changes, lore bits

Achievements and Titles:

I think it's been caught already but we're rolling out a new addition to the site, titles and achievements. ^^ (I love stuff like this so I'm really excited we got to add it yeee. <3)

We'll be adding things slowly, and we're still mid testing so please bear with us as we get going. I don't wanna jump any proper announcement so I won't go too into detail other than I hope we get to do a lot of fun little titles and badges and all the stuffff.

Eyresian Alphabet Font

Finished up the font files after a little bit of tweaking. I did a version with my habitual chunky writing and another thinner one just in case it's preferred. I added both available file types as well because I'm not sure what the difference is xD If anyone has any insight on which type would be better I can remove the other to cut clutter. ^^

The previous iteration of Eyre's alphabet can still be used canonically if preferred, but it will henceforth be referred to as "Old Eyrish" and ...

Eyre script preview~

Hihi~ Oh man. I opened my discord finally. Had like 250 messages to catch up with. Hooboy.  

Nothing quite like it to kick up that urge to hyperventilate.

So I got my hands into something else so that I wouldn't get stuck. Finished something that I've been kicking to the back burner for ages, which was updating the Eyre script to make it easier to write / parse hopefully. I'm letting you and the staff look over it first before I finalize the actual font file just in case, so ...

Happy new year everyone~

Alright. Well. I've had enough time to be mortified and demotivated over my failures over the last year. Farewell 2021, I barely knew thee.

Not making any resolutions because it just feels like bad luck at this point. I'm just going to keep trying new things until I find something that works. 

Still struggling with mental and physical health as ever, but I'm stubborn. Burnt out too hard the last time I came back even though for a little while there I was feeling really good a...

Coming together~

Rough color placements x) Time to get the markings all settled and start adding details.

Just an art update this time, but I'm hoping next week I'll feel up to taking more substantial bites, maybe start in on small public posts and more Patreon cleanup. @o@ /wheeeeze

Stream- Feeling a lil rough.

Probably won't chat much, had a migraine yesterday and the side effects are still lingering x.x Hoping to sink myself into some coloring for a distraction.

Streaming until 7ish.

Update~

An art! \o/ 

Mostly finished lineart to share +u+ Gonna be opening Friday updates for wips as well since I'm starting to get back into the art side and there are likely to be some lulls as far as interesting stuff to post about for a lil bit.

<3 Happy weekend all!

I blinked and it's Friday~ An update.

Small update, nothing game changing to report that wasn't covered in the recent update that went up on the site earlier. Mostly wanted to talk a lil bit about the future of Patreon rewards and such. Please keep in mind that depending on how things go development wise, some or all of these things may end up changing. But, I thought it'd still be interesting to talk about anyway, just please take this all with a grain of salt as nothing is set in stone yet.

So, a list of thoughts.  View Post

Stream~ Continuing from yesterday.

Owed work stream. Continuing on the undine/hallow witch kiddo, hopefully I can get the lines all settled before I stop ^^.

2am stream of consciousness (Update?)

Was late on my planned update today (yesterday) but there are pending things that I'm not sure are ready to be talked about yet which means I won't have a better update probably until this Friday? Hopefully? We'll see.

So I'll just.. put down some thoughts.

Patreon:

- I've updated the wording on reward tiers to more accurately reflect the nature of art rewards right now, which have been inconsistent... er.. non-existent really, for a bit. Once I'm back to de...

Update. Cleaning~

Hubby is out of town for a few days so I'm taking the opportunity to do some heavy cleaning. Was supposed to go to a wedding with him but yay anxiety. 

Anyway, anyone else turn into a nesting gremlin when they're deep in their blues? Good god. Hoping spending the weekend to clean everything up and take care of the mountain of laundry will feel good. Hard to keep a positive attitude when your space is completely demolished. Like an actual safety hazard with all this bric-a-brac on t...

Update

This week:

Word count requirements for written prompts will be adjusted. (Note, these changes will not go into effect immediately just to keep things tidy. Look for official updates with new rules likely in July). 

  • Prompts: Secondary requirement word count reduced from 1200 to 900.
  • Acts: Requirement reduced from 1000 to 900
  • Notes: Should fit together better with mini-requirements being 300 words and potentially allowin...

Streaming~

Maybe for an hour or two. I'm fuzzy from consecutive migraines xD So I think I'll just do.. some elnin sketches? Feel like just doodling, nice and chill. Can you guys post links to your nins here (only one each pls!), I'll pick a few and just warm up this evening since it's been another age since I've done any art.

View Post

Update~

Alrighty so! Future updates will be done on Fridays moving forward, since I'll be meeting with Nai and/or mod group on Tuesdays or Thursdays each week and I can update you guys on things that are going on. Atm I'm hesitant to set a static time because my sleep schedule is a hot mess (had a VERY late start today hence late update) but we'll see how things pan out.

Here's a starter list of things, group wise, that are going on.

Tomorrow I'll be meeting on general QoL stuff f...

Less noise~

I thought a lot about what to post. Probably thought about it too much. So much that I was psyching myself out of it every single time. I talk too much, I feel like I need to explain everything in excruciating detail. And I know it's not really making anyone happy. Even if explanations are in order, I probably shouldn't feel such need to try and bare my entire soul every time. It's exhausting to write, and I'm sure it's just as exhausting to read. It just feels like noise right now, consideri...

Potentially on and off evening stream~

Curious to see how long I can go if I take 15-30 minute breaks o3o Could still be a shortish 1-2 hour stream, we'll see xD 

Working on queue items, but still rusty so progress will be slow fdldf;ljghjhg.

Evening stream~

Another Rupee stream, feels like I might be able to get back into commission work soon, I'm warming up faster than I thought hot dang :ooooo. 

My hand is still pretty weak though, so probably live for an hour/hour and a half depending on how the muscles feel x).

Night owl stream~

Time to warm back up. It really is a lot like exercising after you've been sick for a while fdlgkjhd. Everything feels unfamiliar and so much harder ><.

Chill stream, good vibes! Come hang out or just listen to music.

2020, the year that tried to destroy everyone.

I won't try to be as flowery as I normally do because I know we're all exhausted xvx But I just wanted to make sure I wish you all a happy new year and let everyone know that Thinh and I have just about finished recovering from our covid experience. I have lingering fatigue and Thinh is just starting to get over his dry cough, but things are slowly returning to normal. 

I'll follow up with proper updates but for now I'm just so happy that 2020 is officially over. Let's reboot prope...

Rolled over from yesterday x) Working on my own herald and Queen of... I forget.. winter? Maybe? This one's a personal one so I'll probably try to sneak another stream this weekend for comms, but she's got a lot of lore significance and I wanted to paint rainbows ;3c

Also.. I haven't touched this in over a year so it's gonna be a lot of fumbling around xD Might only stream for an hour, hour and a half, we'll see!
