Ugh, the daylight... it burnses us...
So I've left my cave yet again to finally post something. Here's my first set of drawings using the Cintiq I bought (sadly it doesn't expedite the drawing process very much as evidenced by my 7 month absence 😵). Also, backgrounds are a trap. Anyway, enjoy dragon 2Booty - or don't, and shake your head at how weird the internet is; it'sall good!
Next on the agenda is probably more Fire Emblem stuff - because I wish I knew how to quit you.

What Is Dead May Never Die
So it's been over two years since I left on my art journey, and all I got was this lousy t-shirt. I pretty much got nothing accomplished... which is why I've prepared a dozen excuses instead! Such as constantly being burned out by my unrelated job, losing motivation at the prospect of AI devaluing everything, my drawing monitor breaking last week (this one's actually true!), and a persistent feeling of exhaustion. But even if the world burns, the TF must still flow. So I've put together an actual submission schedule to make myself accountable for posting art.* *The following statements are not a binding agreement and are subject to change at the discretion of the written authority. Because I don't get paid for this shit. [X] Apr-15-2023: Riven Cloud Dragon TF Colored Sequence [X] Apr-30-2023: Shiki (SVC Chaos) Snake TF B&W Single [X] May-15-2023: Katarina Infernal Dragon TF Colored Sequence [X] May-31-2023: Saber Horse TF B&W Single [ ] Jun-22-2023: Fiora Mountain Dragon TF
Entering Cryo-Sleep
I won't be submitting any finished artwork for the next year or two. I end up spending too much time on each piece, and all that effort drains too much of my motivation to keep going. I'm definitely not quitting the transformation art hobby though. Instead, I'll be using my free time in the near future to move over to Clip Studio Paint and try relearning how to draw faster from the ground up. Quality will definitely take a hit, but my hope is that I'll eventually be able to finish sketches in less than a day similar to most artists. Fewer references, fewer revisions, and more fun. I'll still be uploading any sketches I feel are good enough under "Scraps" on rare occassions though, so it won't be full incognito for me. Keep it real - I shall return. o7 Wake me... When you need me.
Annual Fiscal Year 2020 Update
Man, one submission in only 6 months? I'M ON FIRE. If I draw any faster, I think my hand might fall off! So anyway I broke my own vows and drew two dragon tfs in a row. I swear I was in the middle of drawing a non-dragon tf comic until I got sidetracked. Stupid sexy dragons... After I get around to finishing that up, I'll probably have to think about just limiting submissions to sketches and drafts as I work on speeding up my art process.
Transformed at Last
Ahhh... AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH... AAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!! *(1990s lightning crackling sounds)* AH!!!!!!!!
I've finally surpassed my limits. I struggled for over 100+ hours and even had to play through Kingdom Hearts 3 for this submission (pity me, for I have suffered). But I've finally arrived - stronger and more passionate about this obscure fetish than ever before!
And so ends the "Origin Story Arc". Shout outs to etheross for his art coaching, Corivas (https://www.deviantart.com/corivas) and Hukeng (https://www.deviantart.com/hukeng) for suggesting fixes to this piece, and Hexen109 (https://www.deviantart.com/hexen109) for his writing. I have a big piece planned for the tf community in the near future. Lend me your energy!
