baby steps

I am dedicated to finishing the crow girl story. It is the first thing I thought of that I could clearly call an OC of mine. My inability to complete this is creating a big part of my stress surrounding my artistic capabilities- so its time to put an end to it. I was so precious with this story that i continuously pushed it to future "when I can produce this better", and the time has come. And no longer am I precious w the characters. I just want it done.

To give the minimum amt of context I will list my projects with vague descriptions here: Personal Art ideas:

-A story I developed for a manga competition in middle school abt girls and a certain bird species. (emo) -An animation/comic book that I developed for a class, inspired heavily by Turkic mythology (very ghibliesque)

-A comic series about a junior/senior college girl and a grad student, coming of age story about intellectual & social status insecurities. And a little bit of enemies to comrades to lovers. (atmospheric and tender)

-Some story with Istanbul folklore as a backdrop. This can be merged w the last story...

Writing:

-Slight political satire romance book inspired by political fail=sons and fail-daughters, and also from Succession. (this is to satiate my romance book obsession) Other:

-HSM fanart collections. (THIS IS MY MOST ACTIVE IDEA)

Hello world!

I am a professional animator who has been stagnating in personal art dept. This is a blog where I will be keeping track of my artistic growth. Wanted to bring everyone else along for the journey to keep me on my toes.

You see I suffer from a very particular ailment, one which I have not seen much around: I get too attached to the projects and stories I have in my head. No I'm serious when I say its unique, I know we all suffer from this general problem, but mine is a little bit more bothersome:

I cannot make new characters or build new worlds, because I am too haunted by the several characters from middle and high school that I have not finished the stories of. I felt, at the time that I was not good enough to bring some of those ideas to fruition- so I just developed the characters and did not draw them. Then I lost passion, then I started getting stuck.

I am talking about ideas from 12+ years ago!

I decided that I need a clean slate: no matter how hard I try I cannot shake this concepts off my mind; so these will get done no matter how shitty.
