Description
2018 has been a good year! An... interesting year. A growing pains kind of year. But it's been good.The majority of art I produced this year was related to my college classes. I put in a big effort to get Dragontry up and going again, but school and life got in the way. Next year's the year!
Highlights of 2018:
- Learned I love watercolor, and it's one of the few wet art mediums that I'm not allergic to!
- Sold art at Anime Oasis in Idaho with my brother
- Discovered the game Horizon Zero Dawn (surprised I never got around to doing art of it, but I LOVE that game. I've played through it two times in a row.)
- Some of my favorite episodes of Steven Universe came out
- Went to the CTN Expo in the fall, and figured out what I need to do to be a Story Artist. Also met a ton of amazing people!
- Made new friends and great roommates
- Deltarune came out, and it was one of the few times that I got into something at the start of it, which was fun!
- Hilda was a wonderful show that came out this year!
- Created my short video Flags. Might even make the two main characters, Kidd and Monster, my brand mascots.
- Watched Spiderverse and it was INCREDIBLE
- Decided to fast track my graduation and graduate next year.
This year I also lost friends and my brother and sister-in-law moved away, which made me sad. And my dog passed away... plus there's been a lot of stress and whatnot. But life is still good, and 2019 is looking to be an amazing year!

The one with the Mabel Star is actually my sister-in-law wearing a Mabel sweater from Hot Topic. The person next to her is my brother! The full version of the piece has all three of us sitting together playing video games.

You... lost friends this year? I hope I'm not one of those lost... but I know what it's like to have that happen. It's kind of like moving away from friends and not staying in touch, for me at least. I hope you're alright.

Oh, don't worry, you weren't one of them! I was mostly referring to two close friends I made, who then proceeded to have a nasty falling out and I was kind of caught in the middle. Yeah, not a fun summer. : P Moving away and losing touch I can deal with - watching best friends start hating each other is a whole nother world. But I'm fine.

Just curious, but do you have any plans to continue to your NuzRooke comic in 2019? The comic was what made me originally discover you, so I'm a bit sad that you hadn't uploaded any pages in a while. :-/

Oh most definitely! NuzRooke Sun is actually a collaborate project - it's me and my team of artist, Rooke's Army, who are making it. This, by neccesity, creates delays as different people work on it. Plus the last several months have been so absurdly busy for me, that I haven't been able to finish the pages we have almost done. A lot of the process hinges on me personally, so when I'm having a tough time balancing work and school and side projects, it really shows in how often NuzRooke Sun gets posted. But hang in there, new pages are on their way!

So wait, you said "pages we have almost done". As in plural. Are you implying that your plan is to like upload multiple pages at once?

Nah - but we do have a backlog right now that we're trying to finish. Likely we won't finish them all at once though, we just happen to always be working on a couple at a time to try and maximize our output.

Yep! I'm hoping we can get at least one more done before the year is out. Fingers crossed!
