weekly talk 197 (Patreon)

Hoy

Workflow:

I didn't did half of what i had wanted to do last week X)
On the other end, for most of the week i had an inflamation into the drawing hand. Not carpal tunnel syndrom, not really, but the begining of something equivalant. Basicly i played a lot of FPS with friends recently, and i took a bad position, with the elbow on the edge of my desk. Compressed the nerve into it and it impacted the nerve into the hand, the one triggering the index. That caused an inflamation. Not a dire thing, but the doc kinda suggested me to take it easy and use some anti inflamatory ointment.
It's better, but even now i'm typing using my major instead of the index X)
All to say,  slowed me a bit.
This week, finishing the patreon reward of august, at least the HQ, Let's see if i can manage!

Anime:

I'm not against anime, but i don't watch a lot of those. Mostly, before it's anime i want a good plot, or something cool.
For exemple watched the Ijiranaide, Nagatoro-san recently..and it's.. ok tier. TBH i didn't really liked the characters, and it was a bit anoying to see most of them X). But was short so i kept to the end.
At the opposite tried " The Great Jahy Will Not Be Defeated!" and... didn't sticked. Even a bit. Just, the humor don't work for me, no character stick, just not my shit at all.
So much that while watching it was just seeking to watch something else. Kinda like the slice of life stuff, and adding fantasy creature can be fun, but.. don't know, just didn't worked for me there.
So much that i went back and rewatched the entire show of Kobayashi dragon maid. And yeah, was  a pleasure!
I think it's also the first time i ever rewatch an entire anime from zero.
Started Edgerunner now. Problem is with all the R34 with it kinda spoiled me most of the plot and characters XD
Yeah.. so pleasure to watch so far. But ruin a bit the thing that i know more or less how it end.
That said, if you got some suggestion of stuff to watch, or talk of it, don't hesitate to ping me on the discord about it!

me and the quality:

I always struggle with quality of my art.
It's a truth you peoples might have noticed. At the same time i'm happy of hwo some piece work, on the other hand i'm always like "damn, quality isn't at the rendez vous"
sometimes i dunno if it's a curse, or a blessing. Yeah it make me less efficient. I push toward the things, try to enchance, and sometimes way WAY more than i am paid for it.
And a blessing, cause it drive me to keep doing better.
Sometimes i ask myself if i'm made for this job. Not for the art part. Like it, really, and it's all fun.
No, more because of the money part. I'm not good at making it. I prefer to be under paid than to make some peoples annoyed by my prices. I know that for that quality i should ask more. But i can't.
If one day i struggle too much and got to change it all.. well you'll know it. Might erase all roles on the patreon, or almost all of them. Keep only the lower one, and remake reward one with way higher prices.
One day i might be force to get to that. Because i tries to "downgrade" and start to draw more messy but.. it's not satisfactory for me. Just not how i must do it
For now, i'm not that much into such extremities, and i can keep my quality level for this price for now.

Yeah, a bit grim talking, sorry, i'm in a spleen augmented mood recently. It ll pass.

Thanks for reading this far

and c ya soon
