Monthly Oofport: May 2, 2021 (Patreon)

So you might have noticed pretty much total radio silence here, huh?

Since moving, I've had a harder and harder time finding the ambition and the ideas to animate. Things have felt very by the numbers, and it's made me incredibly wary and critical of my animations- which, in turn, has caused me to pretty much shut down. My mental health has also not been terribly great for a variety of reasons I won't go into here.

I had originally planned to get back to work proper in April. That uh, didn't last long. And, somehow, it's now May.

So, basically, I've been on a bit of a break.

Currently, feels like the sun's coming out and the fog is dissipating. I'm hoping that I'll be getting back to work soon. I'm excited to get back to work on Sholstim, shouldn't be too difficult aside from animating some tongue magic.

Also seriously need to finish Chonk up as well, since he's -so close- to being finished. Also plenty of folks have poked me about Juniper and if she'll be done soon- Juniper is a lot more complicated than I originally gave her design credit for, and as such she's going to take a while to get all figured out. Please be patient.

Overall, thank you all so much for your continued support and words of encouragement. I'm trying to get stuff figured out, and y'all telling me to take it easy helps take a lot of stress off.

I've given some thought to my streaming schedule, and I'm not sure I want to stick with it, or if it's wise for me to try to stick to a proper streaming schedule at all. If I do decide to go back to it, they're going to end up probably being earlier in the day or later at night (American timezones).
