Quarantine, day 7921.

The quarantine has softened a bit in Spain, there is a government plan of "phases" to return to normal, if there is no new outbreak due to foolish people who abuse these new measures, but essentially, some early hours in the morning and the last hours of the day, you can go out to exercise outdoors ... those hours are horrible for me, but anyway, the rest of the day, children can go for a walk accompanied by ONE adult person, but protected as always, masks and that.

After a little over two months, this Wednesday my parents came to see me, and to leave me some vegetables from their garden, we talked briefly for a while, which I was very grateful for, on the subject of physical distance measurements, since there were no hugs or kisses, but anyway, the situation, at least we could see each other physically.

And also after two months, I was able to see my.... landlord, its say? and pay him these two months. Fortunately, I was afraid to see my current account so full XDDDDDDDDD.

Work

This week I am going to speed things up a bit, we are halfway through the month and I am just about to finish the first original thematic work, fortunately, last Saturday I already did two sketches, one by Momo yaoyurusu, and another by Albedo from the anime Overlord, I'm not very happy with the latter, but with the other, I am pleased to see that I had a somewhat different and original idea, so next week I will start with Momo, I would still like to do at least a third job, I will have to think about it this week.

I think that doing two Painting at the same time slows me down, apparently, doing two animations or two Paintings at a time is not very efficient for me, I will have to take it into account in the future, although the paintings were a bit like Thanos: "inevitable" (XD), on the one hand, because one is a commission and I thought with the client that, given the theme or the protagonist, it would work better than a Drawing, and Tifa's original Painting ... Well, there was nothing mandatory about it, but since the FF7R is so recent and fashionable, I think something closer to its realistic aesthetics would work, so I chose to do a Painting instead of a Drawing.

I want to apologize to my Patrons, since, because I want to end Videl's animation and then return to Kairi's, I have neglected the FFFF Bunny Cards a little, next week I will try to do one at a time that I continue with what the others things, 

I don't want to extend the process of Videl's animation much more, but I am dedicating extra time to that, I think that finally, there will be a good animation, and I would say that I have learned something new that I am going to apply in the animation of Kairi (And future) to be able to do them even faster, a good thing, after all; Basically I've learned that I don't have to do the full sketch phase, i.e. 100% transcisions as they should be, I can do 50% or even 25% and then fill in those gaps in the final phase.

Well, I hope this month to return to normal already, I do not mean the topic of quarantine, but to continue publishing all my usual content, Drawings, FFFF Bunny Cards ... and Speedpaints, which due to the last problem I had with the Computer, which was overheating and shutting down for security, I've avoided doing that to avoid overheating it, but since I already have fans for it, there should be no problem.

I Keep working.
