Here we are again, at the end of another year. I hope everyone is well! :D

It's been a better year than last, though of course it still had its ups and downs. For now, I'm off work on a break, and I'd bet a lot of you are off from school also. While I've got time off, I'll be working on an Eternal Rain anniversary pic (that I actually started earlier this year but didn't like how it was coming out, so I started it over), and I'll also hopefully get a chance to write.

Recent updates on the art side: I bought my first sets of Ohuhu markers, and I've been trying those out on my last few coloring projects. I like them a lot! I'll probably do a post with a ranking/recommendation of markers separately, but basically the story behind me hopping brands is that stores no longer sell individual Prismacolor markers; so, when my colors die, I have to replace them with new brands. I've also been interested in getting a wider variety of skin tone colors in my collection. One of the Ohuhu sets is exclusively a skin tone set.

Recent updates on the anime side: I've been watching two anime that have been good thus far -- The Fragrant Flower Blooms with Dignity and Mechanical Marie. I also started the anime adaptation of Anne of Green Gables but haven't been back to it in a while.

This site has been down -- what? -- three times in the last few weeks, and it's scaring me. :( I saved a bunch of my OC character development stuff to move over to Unvale in case anything happens here... but Unvale doesn't replace here. I'll always think of theO as my online "home". I had a lot of firsts and fun times here, and I've gotten so much inspiration from everyone's art over the years. Miss you guys. Hope you're enjoying your breaks, and be safe!
