One of my New Year’s resolutions was to improve my art. still pretty embarrassed to mention it, but I had a terrible ego my entire art journey, and now I have been putting it away as I go through learning materials online to improve my art. 
          	
          	One thing I will say is that learning by yourself is quite good. As long as you practically put a door stopper to keep your mind open consistently, you can learn and point out mistakes in your art and improve on them more effectively, all without breaking the bank for enrolling into art school. Also keep others that are not afraid to point out areas you could improve or change close to you. Both of my siblings in my family are artists so I have that covered.
          	
          	So far I have been using my Wacom Intuos S and I have gotten to the point that it feels almost like using paper and a pencil normally, since the last 3 years I was mainly drawing traditionally. I also tried drawing on my phone again, but honestly, I can’t anymore lol. Krita on pc is my go to now.
          	
          	Well, completely on my end is the whole reason I failed to improve. But, there is no time like the present.
          	
          	I think I will post again to my DA sometime in the near future. I’m also trying to write again. I have also been a lot busier, but I will use whatever free time I have to do these things.

I have been playing the Sly Cooper series recently with my psvita, currently on the third one, and I have to say, each game was better than the last one, and all 3 so far were very good games.
          
          Before this I had only the experience of the 4th one, but now I see how good the whole game series is. Man, I wish I was a fan sooner…

Oh yeah, forgot to mention, I have been a furry since August.
          
          Yeah, proper this time. I have always been on the fence, but now I hopped off the fence on the side I like. Something always resonated with me with the Furry community, for like, literally years now. It always let me to question if my actions online reflected me being a furry, like creating animal personas. I was embarrassed to be one for several years, but recently I just really wanted to have at least a fursona. Now I don’t care lol. 
          
          The species I chose for my first fursona was a Protogen, mainly for the customisability. He is a white Protogen with a blue color visor, with huge hair and a big tail, and stereotypical double ears. I designed him on Roblox, mainly because if I designed him elsewhere I would be disappointed on the options available on Roblox, but it ended up being exactly what I wanted, so yeh.
          
          I also made a rabbit fursona, as you may have guessed. He’s a white rabbit. Nothing much else.
          
          So far it’s just these two, but I might make a third, sometime. I think the fursona thing is starting to get to me…
          
          Anyway, I might draw them and post to my DA sometime in the near future. I am practicing new things with my art.
          
          I am still new to this furry thing, but for now I am content where I am. I don’t really want to get too deep in the community just yet.
          
          Though, to me, these fursonas are just personas of me, like my other original characters. They are just like any other character to me, not my entire being. I don’t tend to make my entire perception of myself in their images, if that makes sense.
          
          Not an important announcement, but just a fun thing I got into recently. 
          
          
          
          tl;dr I am now officially part of the furry community, but still just a little bit

Okay analysing this post, my English in some places isn’t the greatest. Whoops

I am going to take on some courses to hopefully improve on my art. I think that this is probably the best way I can approach improvement because I am not really good at improving on my own, and that was what I thought I was doing these 6 years.
          
          Kinda funny that I wasted that time just randomly drawing without a proper mindset of improvement, ngl
          
          Also, I am going to follow other courses for other goals that I want to achieve.
          
          Sorry for being on hiatus for so long each time. I am still brainstorming stuff, in fact my brain is so full of thoughts I should really get into draining it by writing, or I will lose some of them when it gets too full.
          
          Coming back as soon as I can, I am doing a lot of things this year, it might take some time for me to write but they will be touched on soon!

@Carolineshbb thank you. Just a bit guilty because this break was about 3-4 years so I feel like it was more of a procrastination

Good luck on the courses and don’t worry, we all have our breaks from Wattpad. It’s the best to write when you truly fully feel the pull towards writing because then the work is the best quality, so breaks are very justified! :)

Getting even better at blending! I have been delving into topology and efficiency, since the project I am working on is a mod for a game, but itis so massive that I have to think like a game developer, but this is actually allowing me to get closer to my goal. I am just happy I started, instead of the opposite.
          
          Besides that, I have been thinking of doing some improvements with my art as well. I will go deep into learning the fundamentals, as I have been avoiding it. I was stubborn, I realize now that I need to improve by actually learning good techniques instead of winging it like I did the past 6 years.
          
          Thanks for reading!! Be sure to look out, I am definitely going to write stuff!
          
          Ryan out!!

Saw the teaser for Zootopia 2. Hoping it will be very good when it comes out :D.
          
          My fanfictions will still be taking place just after the original movie or even may overwrite the storyline of the sequel, depending on when after the first movie the second one will take place.
