Happy #portfolioday! Sorry about the recent spam from me. I was finding dusty old pixel art off of my abandoned WordPress site and transferring them onto Cara! #pixelart

I see many artists say they're burnt out, depressed, lack sleep, can't pay rent/buy food, and Adam Duff is like "Things are hard and AI's taking over, but you are you. You have power to choose your future, your voice. Just Draw."

No bro. Encourage them to get a job first and do art on the side.

Saw the movie, and I'm probably gonna be drawing and sharing things. I'll do my best to protect y'all from spoilers by tagging the movie title and starting all posts with a warning.

I'm also pinning this to my profile so you know to scroll no further! So stop right now, thank you very much 😊

Deciding that I don't want to focus on art as a career path anymore has been somewhat freeing.
I'll draw whenever I want. I'll hurt my reputation. It don't matter

I wonder why I follow so many Bluesky accounts if I only scroll to check like 20-30 posts a day. That means if I follow 500+ accounts, I see only ~5% of that on any given day. I guess it's subconsciously just to make them think I deeply appreciate all of them. 🤷 Gosh maybe I shouldn't say that.

Day 89: 2025/12/02 - 7.5h

Improved mouse navigation of save slots & added content to them based on the save data system I'm working on. Saving that content to a slot sort of works (with bugs to troubleshoot) but doesn't save an actual file yet.

You might recognize this color picker box from #Aseprite, but you know how it's stubborn and it auto-closes whenever you move the cursor away but sometimes you want it to stay open? Well if you drag out the window after spawning it, it stays open permanently until you manually close the window.

I think I'm partially just throwing in the towel as an art freelancer. I bought my car insurance back, so good news is I get away from the house and not slowly erode my sanity. I also applied for part time work through an agency. This could be better balance. Full time art freelance is exhausting.

Art job. I guess it's pixel art but not sure exactly. If you want it, you can contact zeal.h.music href="/profile/gmail.com.">@gmail.com. I'm full on work already.

Also I don't need nice comments, I just like venting. But I appreciate your consideration anyway.

Before, I was able to choose how I spend my time. It was great honestly. Don't quit your day job y'all. What you think is your dream job is far from the reality it will become.

I used to just be this dude that drew stuff for fun and tried to write little blog tutorials about how I drew stuff, but now it's like... I can't do that, because now it's what I HAVE to do. Even though I don't prefer to draw for numbers and engagement, I HAVE to as a job.

I used to listen to Trent Kaniuga, Feng Zhu, and Adam Duff. I think Trent and Feng are brutally realistic about the art/gaming industry and Adam is more about "inspirational nothingness" in his videos. But it's getting to the point that I don't even want this career lifestyle long term to be honest.

It's crazy because I technically have somewhat "made it" as an artist, because I have 3 small clients, but I think I was way happier and stable than I had realized when I was just a cashier. The only thing I get to do now is draw or walk around, can't even drive until I get car insurance again. 👍

Day 88: 2025/12/01 - 5.5h

Started on the Progress Log section, where the player can save, load & erase game data and quit to the menu. I've got the basic layout & navigation mostly working so far.

Symmetry drawing is so chill. It's crazy that I didn't even know that Aseprite had a symmetry option for so long.

It's not even Doom anymore. It's just straight up Diablo. #pixelart

Probably still more Doom respriting to come, but think I might want to add Diablo onto my daily "to draw" list in between work. Lot of cool monsters in that game too.

Day 87: 2025/11/28 - 6h

My recording cropped fullscreen wrong, but I improved screen scaling & removed Pixel Perfect setting. For now I'll call the Settings section complete & move on to the last Journal section planned for the demo: Progress Log!

I try not to get involved in political Bluesky, but the AI political cartoons just make me cringe a bit. AI still can't count hands and fingers or something. There was also an AI anime I discovered recently.

I really didn't know what I was going to draw today. It started with a doodle of a #Doom Cacodemon holding a plasma rifle, but I think I just discovered that I really like using Aseprite's symmetry tool and drawing cybernetic creatures, so I came up with these cyber cacodemon things. #pixelart

Aseprite users, I hope you use this color picker on the left and not the one on the right. I have a much easier time color picking with the left one.

I'm actually kind of curious about what Doom 3 is at this point. I heard it is terrible compared to most Doom games, but sometimes bad games are interesting to me anyway.
