Mmm Im attempting [again x1000] to finally organize my life. So of course, the most important thing comes first yes? That would be art. :> I had kind of an inspirational weekend. So hopefully this works out for the best. *fingerscrossed* XD

Clean Cut Character Project

____________MORE INFO:
Commissions: These have top priority, and I really haven't worked on many other projects because I'm not allowing myself to work on other things too much until I buckle down and do these. ... I'm just ... having trouble buckling down and doing these. u__u But my resolve is stronger now, for the moment. 8D
100 Remix: Remember that 100 topic project that floated around in a bunch of deviants' journals that everyone said they wanted to try and NO ONE FINISHED? I made a variation on this earlier and made my own 100 topics, but I still haven't figured out exactly what I want the subject matter to be. @__@ 100 pictures is a lot for one topic!
Eternal Gratitude Project: This is something that I've been planning and thinking about for a while. I've been on DA for over 3 years, [4 if you count unregistered time] and I've been following artists on the internet for even longer than that. Checkit, I was 12-13 back then. I know for a fact that without these people and without DA, I would never,
never be where I am now, artwise. To date I watch
500 deviants. [It's hard to keep up lol XD!] Some of these artists hold a special place in my heart and I've wanted to thank them for a very long time. That's what I aim to do with the EGP, but unfortunately with these other things going on, I dunno when I'll be able to start.
CCC Project: A mouthful, eh? XD I've wanted to get a little more organized with all of my stories, too. I have nearly 50 characters and many many stories. All of my information and illustrations, designs, concepts, etc. are rather... pathetic, sporadic, and all around all over the place. I want to organize ALL my characters into sets with similarly styled pictures, along with full character sheets, bios, relationship maps, etc, because there have been several occasions where I would have killed to have organized information and references. This and the 100 remix project are designed to hone focus, though I feel that this one will probably be the more difficult one, due to all the liberties and loose ends I have with a lot of my ideas. By the end of these, if I manage to complete them, I bet I'll want to kill myself. XD aagh! *pullingouthairalready*
Timecult: I've actually already started "storyboards" on this. This is an extreeemely tedious project. Timecult is one of my many stories, and I've been pondering exactly which way to tell it, be it webcomic, illustrated novel, plain text novel, etc. etc... but none of these really suited me. I don't like any of these ideas, because my art style is too dynamic for webcomics, I can't keep anything steady in regards to style [*groan at CCCP*].. I finally came up with a media. I wanted to make a novel, where each page was a piece of art. Not a graphic novel, not a solid textual piece of literature. I wanted to take the text and turn it into a design, and embellish it with drawings and other elements. So I'm starting the planning for this, and I'm considering opening a new DA account for Timecult, to upload the pages to. I'll keep you posted. ;D!
Second Home: I.. really don't know where I'm going with this. Second Home and Timecult are my two most personal stories as they both have some kind of symbolic meaning or expression with my life. I tried to do comic for this on my own and then later at 24hr comic day, and was greatly displeased with the result. I really dont think that medium is for me, at least until I learn to use it better, which may be never lolol. So... Um. I really don't know what's going to happen with this, but I definitely know if there's anything I do in life, I want to get Timecult and Second Home published. :>
____________PROGRESS:
Commissions: Steady work now!
100 Remix: Not started. u__u
EGP: I've gotten a little bit of a start here, but I'm avoiding getting too into it for now, for commission purposes.
CCCP: Starting this tonight.
Timecult: Started this earlier today, work is steady.
Second Home: ???
So I think thats about it as far as art goes! Ummm I'll definitely update with news/progress. Yea! Wish me luck :>
