Changing names!

1 min read
Hey everyone

So as part of my goal to improve my online presence and keep my profile consistent across platforms, I'm changing my username in a few days before my Core membership expires (cannot renew for a while until I'm back on DeviantArt more and have money)!

My current username has been difficult to maintain across platforms, especially when I have to use several X's to claim it. The new username is one I have learned to like on my twitter, and is a little more professional in my eyes. It also fits who I want to be seen as better, an aesthetic I aim for, but that doesn't mean I still don't love my dragons. Part of me wishes PSN would add the change username feature quicker so I could have it there without restarting on collecting my trophies, but life is cruel. 

So there the warning for everyone!

Late night journal update. It's been about, what, 8 months since my last journal update? 
My activity on here is not nearly as high as it used to be back in the day. My second year of university started late September and all my time is dedicated to my course. Any spare time is either searching for a placement next year, or trying to enjoy video games (Overwatch is my new fave, if you haven't seen my twitter feed).
While I do sketch personal stuff in my spare time to help improve the new skills I've been learning this year, I don't upload it as often either due to quality or saving for future use, since I mainly create concept art these days. 

I hope some followers are still out there, and if anyone wants to catch up I'm happy to

See you all around!

So with deadlines coming up and summer to follow, I'm debating on opening commissions this summer for interested folks. I will happily take suggestions on what type of art to offer, and I may even offer commissions relating to my course (mainly 3D modelling). I would love to have peoples feedback, so that I can work on setting up a system during Easter. 
Thanks

Hello friends, it's 2016, I finally got my core membership back its already looking like a shitty year for me - broke phone so now I don't have a camera, fire-related panic attacks and a lot of university work I cannot compute with. Woop.

Ignoring the pessimist in me, I made my new year's resolution to be updating deviantART more, which I haven't done very well so far. I would like to share what my goals are, so that I'm motivated to actually do them.

1) Cleaning
This account is a mess. Not gonna lie. I have work here that I am no longer proud of, or is just not needed. I need to sort out my front page, and tidy it up. I'm not getting a future job with a messy account.

2) Terminus
So my wierd apolcayptic story idea has gained some steam, with people joining in to submit characters and provide some beef where needed when I cannot think of new characters. I'm at a point where I might be able to start producing comics if I can manage my work better and have more free time. But even then there is character reference sheets, narrative structure to finalise and the possibility of creating 3D models for animations. I mean it is the course I'm doing.

3) TPL
I bet some people never thought I'd dig this up again. Despite everything, I need to reduce the work going into Terminus so that I don't mix up univeristy with Terminus and hand the wrong files in during deadlines (and you know, just finish the work to a good grade). To balance it out, as I did during secondary school, I'll try and start writing again. I still love The Legend of Aarasiith. If anything I miss the countless hours typing to reduce stress, and after reading back through my stories, I am appauled at my writing style. If as I write this I am also re-writing the first chapter. With the years that have passed, my ability to produce story arcs, create interesting visual designs for characters, and add a bit of depth has majorly improved. Looking back at some of my writing, characters didnt match with their personal experiences, mainly Lily being so calm after the events in the first chapter. With personal experience in more avenues of life, such as mental trauma, I can add more depth and reality to this rather un-realistic adventure. But that's enough rambling, I need to actually re-write the story. 

That's all for tonight, but I hope you are all well, and that I can talk to you all more in future.

It's almost Christmas, cue the tinsel and the lights and the silly jumpers people wear. And I suppose family. 

I hope everyone is doing well in the past few months, as I've been so busy with university and surviving my first semester. And boy has it been fun, but also rough. Anxiety has made socialising difficult at first, but I've made some wonderful friends who I am already missing over this Christmas break, and learnt some great stuff on the course. I wish I could say I have been free of breakdowns and the like, but PTSD doesn't go easily. 

I would love to know what everyones up to and been up to before the New Year ^^ 2015 has been a funny but strange year to say the least :lmao:

Merry Christmas my lovelies <3
