(Modern note, I suggest looking at my later chapters, as they are typically more up to par with my current artistic capabilities. But I would still appreciate if you look at the earlier ones if you decide my art journey is for you! Thank you for sto...
Whelp, here I am. I wish I had something interesting to say, but I am actually posting while on a school asyncronous learning break, meaning that I am not delirious while posting at 2am, 😂. So, I am uncertain to talk about.
Not that I really need to say anything I suppose, most of you are here for the art, I'm assuming.
I mostly just want to have a few hundred words every chapter so it not just a few comments I put about how much I struggled with hands or something, XD.

Was trying to brainstorm a new look for my avatar, or... "persona". I might try doing one of those "story time animations" as practice for scripting, storytelling and overall skills. Not sure how or when I'll do this, especially since I don't think my microphone is the best quality, but I know I just need to start.
But animating my hair is gonna be a nightmare. XD. I don't know how the hell I'm gonna have consistent curls that I can draw over and over. Plus I wanna keep it mostly accurate to what I look like. I know most story time animators have bangs with their avatar -- and while they may actually have bangs, who am I to judge -- it may not be true since bangs are easy to draw and make a more interesting character design sometimes.
I really want to have an interesting silhouette as well and seem original and unique.
I wanna keep some of my "iconic" (things I wear often in real life) outfits, but I'm not sure what to settle on. I'll probably go with my big black sweater dress thing, since it's got an interesting look to it. But I need to figure out what colour of jeans or tights I'll have under it. I would wear dark leggings under typically, but in terms of design, that would be too much black. So colour theory says to go with white pants, but I don't have any, and I wouldn't wear that. So maybe I can simply stretch the truth and go with a paled grey? I'll probably change outfits in scenes and different "episodes" (If I even do this), so I should chill my shit XD.
But yeah, if you have any design suggestions I'm all ears. Had to search for so many hair references and mix so many concepts XD. Must curly haired character but have undefined circles, which I personally do not like. I have strong loops at the front of my hair, and then my hair is really long -- reaching my hips -- and it gets heavy at the ends so it straightens slightly at the ends. Plus in the back of my hair it is relatively straight too. But my hair at the top of my hair is quite flat since its so heavy, I like keeping my hair perfectly parted in the centre too since the weight distribution would bother me (unless, of course, it is for a certain event) but in terms of a design concept, that is quite boring. So I need to find a strange grey area in there 😂.
WHOA. I definitely went on a tangent there. LOL.
