No needa read this, peeps. XD Just a way to let myself out again and gain back my motivation to create and complete works. I was mostly off due to school and personal life. Out trying to find my style of art which took me months to find- i just can't seem to be fixed on a style. Just wanted to keep it consistent because I didn't want to disappoint anyone- My motivation is also very wacky.
School is finally coming to an end and I have just my final exams left. I have been doing some draws but didn't really post them as often even on instagram cos Idk, I lost so much motivation- i also wanted to escape school life somehow so I got away from drawing by obligation to finish and did other life things.
Boy when i look back at my old stuff i really cringe. I was like 14-16 years old posting stupid shit and having an overly positive but conceited attitude???
and i never finished my projects
i mentioned it a lot in my descriptions as well. Cringing at my old self. It must be getting tiring to hear that but i can't help it. Deviantart has my life's personalities and work from grades 8/ 9 onwards-
Anyway, I really really want to start anew some day, or rather some time soon. I miss posting art.
I'll be drawing in a mix of some original content and fanart-- cleaning my hideous gallery, but not deleting anything. (Unless i'm cringing too bad that I dont want it there XD)
I want all my attention to be focused on finishing drawings and projects and not looking for ways to free myself from school.
I will be posting again real soon, that's a promise.
nyello peeps, i'm more active on instagram now because it's been easier to upload weekly sketches (like 1-3 a week). I decided deviantART be a place for completely finished artworks which i absolutely suck at being committed these days. XD
in short, follow me on instagram. please. or don't. idk, your choice XDDD

i may accidentally upload too much that you'll find it annoying to see my art on your feed probably 24/7 xD
anyway on top of my school work and stuffs, i've been playing a bunch of Final Fantasy XIV with my good mate, Mimosa
and i want you to come play FFXIV with us. My player name is Jack Lyncoln (home world: Famfrit, the server) and i always wave at random people cos it makes me happy >:D

UWU
dis my char (in game) on the left
i can't keep up with final fantasy designs for shit O.o too gud for me... it hurts me so...
i live the gridania.
This is my final year in high school. Man, what a journey. I remember joining deviantart late eighth grade and using it more often when I was in year 9 onwards.
2020, I am now in year 12
I'm excited to finish school and upload art ridiculously at the end of this year to the next. Unless I get into a course for nursing xD
(Don't worry about reading this, just writing out my thoughts but you can still read it if you'd like. Wat a dA journals for... Unless you're those super professional artists who put all their patreon, youtube, twitter, insta links and such. xD
(stop here, go away. There are better things in life to do than read this. Shoooo)
Okay so, if you're still reading oh well, xD
.. I can probably carry out the projects I've been putting on hold for so long.
Every once in a while I'd come up with a new story idea based on something i've experienced in real life and if I really liked the idea, I'd start drawing the characters, their info and backstories--etc.
The process continues as I progress through the years and those ideas I did in the past with characters already drawn are placed to the side when a new really cool story idea comes. O.O I need to stop.
At the same time it's good because you lay these ideas out on a figurative desk and pick out the ones you're more interested and passionate about to work on those, and put the less interesting ones to the side and add to them later if you feel like it. Who knows, people may end up liking those side ones better.
Right now, I'm very passionate about these projects I'm working on called, "Blue Butterfly", "Monkey Girl", and "The Cosmocirca: Birth of Heart" . They're online picture books/ comics you can read for free xD (more about that later) I'm gonna list my stuff (best of interest to least) at the bottom.
I have another couple of projects, which is the comedy, adventure, fantasy and drama-- Nuri: The Lost Guardian (comic). I've finished everything from the main story, short prequel, and sequel. Fuck that took forever. I spent roughly 2-3 years writing the stories alongside getting bombarded with school work and my personal life shit, haha.
I'm going to carry that out at some point, (let's be real, if I have the motivation and energy to do so) I may be adding some changes to the story. Cos I think it sounds cliche a bit. Idk much about my 14 year old brain. A lot changes.
I also wanted to work on a game mod for Sphinx, which you have seen a bit of stuff for back in 2018
I haven't worked on that since late last year o.o and just stopped for a bit too. I haven't even done the concept art for the worlds I want to build in blender xD
Finally, I've been building on the story of The Cosmocirca: Birth of Heart. Has stuff like the magical circus train (Called the Cosmocirca) <-- (derived from Cosmos and Circus, Circus in the Galaxy)
The train extends throughout worlds and is the main story of my precious Jack Lincoln and his origins. OKEH time to list my projects
Working on: (To keep on track with my stuff, and show you the partial reason I'm off a lot) xD
Priority:
Blue Butterfly
Monkey Girl (Prequel to Blue Butterfly)
The Cosmocirca: Birth of Heart
Nuri: The Lost Guardian
+ Nuri: A Beginning, and Nuri: Another World
> Stories in order
A Beginning
The Lost Guardian
Another World
^- They're all complete XD
Side: (Can't have any guarantee these will be finished for certain)
The Flame Beasts
SATCM Mod
Fiendish
I know no one is interested by them so I'll give teasers and see if anyone would be interested xD Can't just drag someone in without showing them a couple of spoilers or teasers to
m a y b e spark their interest.
I'll provide a rough 100 word description for each of them in another journal/ sta.sh document. (will repeat the projects list there too at the top) It'll give you an idea what each project is about, perhaps you may be interested some day. Trust me, I will do it before I die of old age.
Thanks for reading if you made it this far you fucking legend. I love you
