Had to do this as some point, didn't I?
Oh well...
GOODBYE TO 2024, WELCOME 2025!!! :D
(God help us)
Alright, so here I am! Almost one year after my arrival in this fine place! And boy, that was fast!
Lmao, what am I doing here anyways? Just sharin' my silly lil art pieces, they might get lost in time at some point! But for now, I've come a long way, hadn't I?
Oh well, let's see what I've managed to do in this year!
January
Fresh as new and without the slightest idea how things worked around here. I made the decision to make an account during New year's Eve and did it some days after. I surely wasn't great the day I started and I'm still not but I didn't give up and I'm not planning on doing so. Started off with this little doodle of Nene:
I drew this during New year's Eve and thought I'd give it ago. Of course it's not my first attempt at digital art but it's my start here. I might as well remake it for the fun of it. This barely reached 4 votes at the beggining and had a single comment from @Tyhond who welcomed me, a real sweet guy to be honest!
Later on, I decided that I had to post one piece every day which turned out to be exhausting some months later. I tried to work on a bigger piece, but of course it turned out mid because... I only have my finger, I can't do much! :'3
I didn't have signature at the time and just wrote my whole username. Although, I'm still struggling to find something recognisable ;(
I tried a full body as well (let's be honest, kinda looks like shi)
February
I remember clearly that I begun socialising a bit more here during that month. Entering a bunch of collabs, getting to know different people on the platform, that was swell. I cannot recall all of the collabs but this one right here...
I had no idea that the entries would be uncensored XDD Had fun w my pink underwear Pikachu though :3
March, April, June
Not much was going on then because I was seriously struggling with school. I have no idea what happened to me, it was just that I was failing, my grades were horrible. I just felt as if I couldn't concentrate on my damn booo and study, I only had a bad feeling in my stomach for reasons my mother dismissed as stupid. Of course, the fact that I lied about my grades wasn't much of a help when my mother found out. A HUGE, GIGANTIC THANK YOU to @yummywhiteliquid (yes, that's his username) for the support during those times. I don't know what would've happened if you weren't there, pal. I appreciate deeply.
I've managed to improve a liiiiiittle bit during that period with art, drawing the first version of my oc/persona
I've changed it a LOT in just few months, oh my god...
I also had motivation suddenly and made some changes about how I draw bodies
The poses were awkward but it was certainly an improvement from the previous blocky body >_X
I was never really good at perspective, I'm still not but this simple drawing of Kinito for a collab didn't turn out so bad!
I think it's obvious that we're looking at a different angle, no? :3
June, July, August
I managed to make my fat, lazy ass sat down on the chair and focus on the exams during June. To be honest, I did better than I thought! I had gaps, that's for sure but I did good. Not the best in class but still! It made me feel better though and I had a lot of time to think what I want to become in the future. It's difficult to become an programmer and animator but never say never!
I was honoured to draw the first music cover in my life, for @Creeperforce24 's aurora
I remember myself looking at the empty spot beneath the aurora borealis while thinking "Now how the hell am I going to draw all these trees." I ended up drawing one and copying it :P
I redesign my persona as well. Different personality and different universe but I'm not going to go into much detail because I scrapped it some weeks after
September, October, November, December
Took a long break there, haven't I? In the beggining of the months mentioned above, I was getting a little insecure about the whole thing. I was looking at my drawings and highly doubted that I would ever be able to improve in some way. But then again, I wouldn't achieve anything if I didn't pick up the pencil.
I managed to make a fanart for @Songiaxshudder although late, and some other traditional art.
I, um... Don't throw tomatoes at me but I redesigned my persona...AGAIN. But this time, I feel like this might as well be the final change.
I got to play around with different shapes with this one, following all the tutorials I've seen (not precisely though XD) and I'm in fact proud of this!
SPECIAL THANKS:
I wasn't able to reach 100 fans by the end of the year, although I'm close but oh well! Maybe next time! Thank you to EVERYONE for following me and showing your support even in the simplest way, it still means a whole lot to me!
@Creeperforce24 a real nice, chill guy with some great beats at store, always been a good pal AND the first person to make me fanart! I appreciate you bro! :)
@Tyhond I just really wanted to mention him because I always see him almost, uh... EVERYWHERE! He's always to kind and supportive to everyone, has always a nice thing to say :3
@Songiaxshudder Another good friend, his stickman animations are awesome and I'm glad that he remains strong and keeps on going after the incident with a certain user. Keep up!
@Tomafokio Always checks out my part and gives a favourite, as well as reacting to posts. The traditional art they make is honestly so eye-pleasing it melts my brain
@rosarcj We haven't talked much but you seem like a real nice guy, your art is amazing and congrats for one year here!
@Piconjo My first follow here, honestly! K33p on pwning gh3y t0adiez n st4y 1337

@dim7ay Looooove your music, συνέχισε έτσι!
@HztaOra a lovely person with lovelier art!
@Chillzozen keep on dropping your oc's mind-blowing lore. And if you ever need names, you know who to ask!
This is the first time I'm doing this XD... Be sure that I'll read this and now that you (yes, YOU) are reading this, I am editing this because I mispelled or forgot something, that's for sure!
So, with ALL that being said, let the new year come. I have many things, including a TON of ocs in store! Stay tuned!
Happy New Year, I'm out!
Yours truly,
Phantom!
