2025

Let's see what happens this year...

Cold Steel IV Altina Orion Fan Art. I loved her character, always have a preference for the more robotic and/or less dramatic characters.

'To drink from the Lambswool' -05/01/25 First piece of the year. Twelfth Night inspired merged with a concept I had floating around in my head for the past month. I am real happy with it, finally feeling like my idea's are coming out right. The more I draw, the closer I'll be, which is very exciting :)

Drew this thumbnail based on a scene I wrote of a character (the veteran on the floor), breaking down after a recent event bringing back untreated memories. It turned out really well, super close to my imagined scene. This character is an incredibly delicate subject, one I am quite passionate about and want to do justice. I've recently got the book 'Band of Brothers', to help make sure, (after the research I've already done), that I am not trivializing nor dramatizing history and problems that are so important, in my writing. I think the PTSD and un-answered needs for recovery in post-war or deployed soldiers is a topic often skipped over or used in cringe-worthy ways with peoples OC's. 

I am leaning to WW1 since it matches the technological landscape of the world I'm making, but in theory, if my writing is done well, it should apply to modern day, without people feeling used. I listened to the "Voices of the First World War, Shell Shock." Which was incredibly insightful, since it was veterans own recordings on the subject. I am a big advocate for remembering what the world war's truly were, since I feel a lot of people just don't empathize to the extent of it, a lot in part due to desensitization, but also comforts we have grown used to.
