I didn't submit my one shot comic to the Jump! contest, because I didn't like how my progress went. The 15 page limitation screw me over, I wanted to write more than that. Didn't want to the dump the idea either. Also I created the idea like last month, and with the busy life I have, I didn't had enough time for drawing things in general. I don't want to rush it too, sloppy writing and wonky drawings would upset me immensely. Entirely my fault, I won't blame anyone, that's loser talk. Just horrible timing and restraints, also trying to be a responsible adult. Maybe next time! I'll keep an eye out for another and give myself a head start! All good though, if I ever finished the one shot, I'll released it. Til then, I'll show you guys and gals some character concepts I made.

Still very busy irl, getting my life together and such. I've been drawing from time to time, but nothing really finished, so it's not worth posting to the art portal. Don't wanna get un-scouted for bare minimum quality work.

Hopefully soon enough, I'll be more active here and contribute again, hahaha. fuck.

On the bright side, here are some recent stuff I've been working on!

Clown Collab! It's due in 2 days. OH SHIT!

15 min sketch of my main OCs. My new possible NG banner, if I ever finish it.

One of the main villains; Vivian the Dirge. She's a mean dark elf lady.

Character concepts for the one shot comic contest, idk if im going to make it in time. Who knows lol

Such a way of words. Very inspiring.

IT'S TIME TO GRIND!!! I MUST UPLOAD MORE ART SUBMISSIONS! JOIN COOL COLLABS! PARTICIPATE IN STUFF I LIKE! HELP FELLOW NG USERS SUCCEED! YEAH YEAH YEAH YEAH! I WELCOME YOU 2025, I WILL DOMINATE YOU AND MAKE YOU LOVE ME, AHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!! COME ON, DOUBLE DOWN! BECAUSE I'LL DO IT TOO! LETS GO RIGHT NOW! EYE FOR AN EYE! RETRIBUTION, YOU MOTHERFUCKAS! LETS FUCKING DO THIS SHIT!!!

So like I'm planning to put my other two stories (dark fantasy and 4koma) into the crime drama story as fun easter eggs.

Here's a dumb drawing of Soo-Jin merrily examining an Izabi's figurine, haha.

Probably you're going see like advertisements, video games, or whatever entertainment media referencing my other works. I thought it would be fun to do stupid crap like that. Also it's shameless promotion to look at my other stories!

While I'm busy with the character sheets... I got an itch and quickly sketch out three different art styles for the three projects I am creating.

Matriarchy - seinen inspired, unhinged, gory, steampunk dark fantasy

Boop! - cartoony, "family-friendly", anthropomorphic character focused, 4-koma gag (same universe w/ Matriarchy)

What-A-Wonderful World - sketchy kinda realistic look, politically incorrect, early 2000's setting; criminal drama

Getting super ambitious with this, but no worries. I'm only focus on the dark fantasy story. If I run out of creative juice from the dark fantasy, I'll work on the gag comic or criminal drama story until I get bored them. Rinse and repeat, haha!

So many OCs, so many ideas! I need to draw more reference sheets for my characters and the world I'm building! Drawing my OCs as I'm making up their designs on the spot is so messy and frustrating! I'll poop out some illustrations every now and then. For now, I must stay focus and study. I might have to change of being a hobbyist to aspiring concept artist/character designer to give me the right attitude and mindset as one!

Okay, so let start out creating a character sheet with Izabi first, the mantis lady!

Go check it out if you want. Love y'all!
