First performance. Today's the first performance of my first ever pantomime. I cannot tell you how excitdd iam.

Sorry I got a bit jittery here, I just drank a shot of coffee.

Jesus, since summer we've been preparing every week. I feel like running around in circles! Ever since I joined the theatre I wanted to get into a pantomime. Here I am now!

What's gonna be next is about... 7 nights worth of doing a poor Essex accent. This is gonna go well!

So, last night I finally finished the Lover's Collab piece, really satisfied with it! All I need to do now is to press send and it's done.

What I need to do next is drawing the comission. I'm not experienced with drawing fur, but it'll be something worthwhile to learn.

I'm thinking of drawing CappyCat more. I haven't really been fleshing him out, only from other places like my diary. I'll aim to at least draw him once a day or something , that'll help me with my digital drawing.

Yeah, I've been finding that it usually takes me days to get a piece done. I know I should take my time with it, though if I draw more often then I can learn more from my mistakes.

Send me any tips if you have any.

Have a good day everyone!

Today I discovered something from @nutcasenightmare's brilliant website about memorisation, it's really cool!

https://ncase.me/remember/

This'll help me with a lot of stuff (vielleicht sogar sprachen!) But it'll take a while since I need to make a habit of it first.

They're really awesome with the work they put out. I didn't think they made :the game: series and this cool animation. Gotta hand it to ya they're a fucking genius.

Here are a few of my favourites.

Check 'em out! I now they're a newgrounds staple but I still like to share what amazing stuff they make!

I think next time, I'd like to talk about something personally. Something been on my mind a bit, so I'll talk about it on Sunday, but I'm not certain at the moment.

Just gonna spend the day in me jammies.

Hah! Not really, though I'm not gonna do much college work today after two long days. But what I will do is do some drawing, caus it's what I'm good at!

The Pokémon Mystery lovers thing is just about finished, but the Mystery Meat thing might take a bit.

I also started my first comission! I've been asked by a friend to draw his widdle shih Tzu puppy, it's so cute!

Anyway, I'm just gonna leave this here:

ITS DONE. IT'S FINALLY DONE I CANT CUCKING BELIEVE IT!!! YEAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!

Jesus Christ I didn't need to write 3,500 words on character design, especially when I'm not well versed in it. But it doesn't matter now because it is done.

The results I got from the survey is absolutely amazing, you guys are brilliant, I love you all so much. I'll share a mini-sized version of my essay, gotta say the research was really interesting!

Next, I need to get on with my final project now, and yes it involves more writing. Looking back at it, I was very ambitious writing a hefty sum. Next time I will be straight to the point while writing and not pour out paragraph after paragraph with purple slop.

Again, thank you all for the support.

It was a bit of a mistake doing that hourly tech rehearsal log over the weekend, I thought I would've written a mad-man's diary but turns out it was all right in the end.

But anyway, today's the day I go back to college. Weather outside is nice, 1% sunshine and 99% absolute misery. Still, day'll be over quickly.

So today, I'm gonna finalise my essay, only the conclusion is left. I take a bit of time to write caus I'm a bit out of practice, in fact this is my first time writing one.

College is great for practical work, but when a essay hits, it comes like a dump truck.

I've got a lot of work going on right now, I even have dress rehearsals ending at 11. Have to upload some docs and pay up for uni auditions.

Which means that I may be posting less art. Even saying that I don't really post that often.

Still it's a matter of progress anyway. What I have at the moment is the lines for Timburr and the colouring and shading for Lucario among other things...

But! There will be more stuff coming soon...

Just some sketches here

Turns out they didn't need the green face in the end, they just wanted some fauna-ish makeup.

Tbh, I am playing a tree and not the jolly green giant.

Status: Feeling Fab

Just got lipstick and eyeliner on me, I look like a yassified Jim Carrey.

Status: Bit Sick 🤢

Dunno why... But I'm feeling a bit green at the moment

Status: All Ready

Currently 10.00 hours and 20 minutes as of right now, getting changed into my costume. First act has finished and now on the second one.

My essay is in a good place at the moment, what's left is the last section and the conclusion. Finish that, then I can move onto my final project and some other projects.

Shouldn't take too long, I just need to dump in some quotes and statistics

I'll take it easy today, I think I'll take more rests as well.

Basically had to stand for two hours with my head poking out of a cardboard cutout.
