HERE COMES A SPECIAL BOY

[badlydrawnkakyoin]

You are, in my opinion, one of the greatest blogs I've ever come across. Thanks for the good times!

That definitely means a lot! Thank you for your kind words ♥

[badlydrawnkakyoin]

So, you're leaving huh? It's been a fun ride, hasn't it? Seeing so many people love you for what you do. It must be hard leaving this blog behind. All those great times. I remember every time you made me smile and laugh. You may not know who I am. And really, I regret not trying to talk to you considering the fact that you're leaving. But, if I did talk to you, this message would have been harder to make. I'm just gonna end this message here, buddy. Thank you for everything you've done.

It definitely has! I honestly couldn’t be more appreciative; it feels almost undeserved for a silly doodle blog, but if it made people happy, then that’s what matters. 

I’m glad I could make you smile and laugh too! Don’t worry about it, and besides, I’ll still be around, just in other places doing other things B) Thank you for sticking around for so long!

[badlydrawnkakyoin]

You have been my inspiration for so long! I'm sad to see you go, but the most important part is that you do what makes you happy! You sound like you've had an amazing time so far, and I wish you luck wherever you're going. Stay strong out there. :)

I’m honored!! Thank you ;v;

It’s definitely been a time, and it probably sounds more grand than it is, but it’s still been pretty nice in regards to opportunity. After all, ups and downs is just how life does its thing. It definitely wasn’t easy, but it’s honestly thanks to people like you that I can keep going with such confidence, even if I may struggle with it. Good luck to you too! I hope to continue to inspire and do good work! 💪

Ilu my dude, thank you for running this blog for so long with your friends and the amazing art you provided, I wish you the best of luck in life!!!

Thank you! ;v; Good luck to you, as well! ♥

@badlydrawngangstar​ reblogged:

I enjoyed all the crazy fun shenanigans you did with your blog and how you played Kak, which in turn helped inspired me to make a bd blog of my own B) So a big “thank you!” right back at you for being a great inspiration to this community and I hope you reach great heights with your growing talent and that you accomplish your goals. Kick some butt!

You will be missed @badlydrawnkakyoin​ and even though we didn’t interact as much, it was enjoyable while it lasted!

Ahh likewise!! I LOVE how you play Gio and all of the things he gets into, and you’re a big art inspiration to me too!  Although I won’t be on bd I’ll still see ya around B)

@dailyabba​ replied:

While most of your content was from long before I made my blog, you and the people you interacted with were always one of my biggest sources of entertainment, as well as being big inspirations for me! I wish you nothing but the best. Thanks again for everything!))

I’m honored, truly I am! That’s honestly all I could ever want by doing something silly like this. Thank you!!

@liquid-science34​ replied:

You were one, and always will be, my favorite Tumblr blog. Thanks for the laughs, I appreciate it.

I’m really glad! Thank you for your love n’ support 🙌

Replies for tags, since I got those too:

@dailykakyoin​  I’ll miss you too!! But there’s always Twitter, so 😎 👉👉  It was fun interacting too, even if it wasn’t a lot!! 

@badly-drawn-iggy Thank YOU for liking my stuff! ;v; Hope you have great times ahead for your blog!

@neomints I don’t even know where to begin either, likE,  I’ve been sitting on the reply for awhile now just trying to think of what to say

I’m honest to god just, absolutely honored to be able to have done that for someone. I’m so glad and it’s honestly surreal to me, since I always feel like I’m forgotten or disappointing people the moment I stop posting or making something, despite people saying I should take my time, or that I’ve done a lot for them by just doing what I do (’cause I’m aware of things but perception of reality is something I often struggle with). And for someone who constantly fights lethargy, motivation, and sadly general existence, hearing this really gives me hope that I can help people with the things I love to do the most, by just doing what I do. It gives me a purpose, and reminds me that there are others who have been affected similarly, and it gives me a reason to push forward and another reason to be happy about living. And to impact someone’s life in such a way, I’m so glad that I could do something like help you on that path, ‘cause you deserve great things. I wish you a bright future as well! I won’t ever forget this place. It’s done so much for me.

Thank you guys so much for taking the time to say something ;v; It’s definitely more than what I expected, and it means so much. I’ll definitely still be around, just moving on to other things! 

[badlydrawnkakyoin]

...and have been wanting to say it for awhile now.

It was rather obvious, but this blog is honestly... pretty dead. I always had the intention of coming back, but with friends leaving this place behind, there seldom were people that I interacted with on a regular basis-- and thus a lack of motivation to keep up with the influx of asks (of similar and repetitive nature-- there’s really only so many things to do before things being to repeat themselves, especially if you’ve been at it for a really long time, not taking into account interactions and events.) I tried multiple times to get back into the flow of things, but it simply never worked out due to the aforementioned issue as well as things such as school schedule, the workload it presented, and now a job with the potential to grow into sometime promising-- especially when it’s something I’ve always wanted to do, which is work on games.

This place has been a positive impact on my life and general existence. Tremendously so. I’ve been here since the very beginning as the second blog back in April 2015 (forgive me being a little prideful in saying so, it just means a lot to me) following in badlydrawnjotarokujo/kakyoyoin’s footsteps, and then being followed by badlydrawnpolnareff-- both who became lifelong friends of mine, whom I cherish to the very end. This place has done a lot, even if only by setting certain things in motion. I had a lot of fun, and had a lot of opportunities-- I improved drastically in my art, met a lot of great people who I still talk to, got a lot of attention for a blog filled with dumb doodles, and even met up with people at conventions-- namely Katsucon-- making good friends there, as well. I built a lot of confidence, learned a lot, went through some hardships, and was able to feel accomplishment whenever I got an ask saying I made someone laugh, brightened their day, or even helped them be happy despite how much life sucked, even if by just a little. I’m sorry for never answering them, but I do get those asks, I see them, and I want to thank you all for them. I might be a little dramatic, I suppose, but there’s just a lot I’m thankful for. 

I just really wanted to say a genuine thank you for all the support and love that  me and this blog has gotten over the past two years. To make people happy, give ‘em a laugh, or even inspire someone with my art; that’s really all I wanted from this. There was a huge timeframe where I got busy with school and wasn’t able to do much and I’m sorry for that, and I’m ever so grateful to everyone who insisted I take my time and take priority in my other work, and even followed me outside of this blog, which means so, so much to me. Thank you to everyone who showed me love and support in your asks and comments despite my inability to keep active. And for putting up with the feeble attempts to make stuff again.

To say I’ve been pretty absent from Tumblr as a whole is an understatement, although I’ve been AT LEAST trying to keep my artblog up to date w/ somewhat nicer pieces I do. I’m much more active on my Twitter, where I’m at least a couple hundred times less serious sounding than this, I swear. I also have been making use of Instagram as of late. Snapchat too, if anyone’s into that? I’ve been doing a lot of art and have been practicing on getting better and better, and have a lot of plans for the future, such as convention tabling and making art for games, and further down the line, a webcomic (hopefully with music and animations!) that I’ve been planning and developing for the past year, as well as run a coffee shop alongside bdpolnareff, my QPP. So, things have been looking up, even if I’ve been struggling with depression and the like. I have things I really look forward to. I’ve also recently graduated and have a Bachelor’s degree in Digital Arts & Design! School ain’t over yet, though, since I’m spending another two years in school for a degree in Game Art. Then comes the student loans...

So, while I really want to say sorry for probably disappointing you all with a general lack of content here (which I really am), I want to focus on the positive. I want to express just how thankful I am to all of the 3,000+ people that decided to follow this blog (which was WAY past any expectation that I ever had, tbh) For just being there, validating and supporting me, whether you said something or didn’t,  ‘cause it’s something I really needed. Honestly, you all are the reason that I kept at it for so long, after all. I’m really, really grateful-- probably more than you could ever realize. And if I could ask, if you liked my stuff, please follow me on other places and don’t be afraid to drop a comment somewhere, ‘cause I really appreciate them! (Although I’m kind of bad at conversation sometimes, especially in DMs, but I still appreciate--)

I honestly could say thanks and thanks again all day, and it’s probably getting really old by now if you’re still reading, but I just... really wanted to say how much all of this meant to me. So, as a final thanks, thank you for taking the time to read this. ‘Cause that means a lot too. This is goodbye! From here, at least!

I wish all of you luck and good fortune for the future. There are dark times ahead, but remember that it’ll always pass! Easier said than done, I know, but you can do it! Things may not go as planned, but sometimes those things happen so that something greater may come later. After all, we wouldn’t know what happiness is if we were never sad. You never know what’ll happen!

//hjhjsjh where did you buy that wig?? It's so gorgeous! Or did you style it yourself because hot damn... (Either way, where did you get it? And what color is it listed as so I can get extra long wefts for my Kakyoin wig :3 )

It was styled by @anactualowl​! Here’s what they said:

‘I used this wig from wig-supplier and used the same hair from the wig to add more fluff at the top! If you need any help you can ask!’

It’s ya boi kak 😎✨

[badlydrawnkakyoin]

So I know I’ve been dead here but I’ll be at Katsucon this weekend! Not tabling, just hanging out with friends and cosplaying part 4 Kakyoin. 

 Might post pictures? Eventually;;

I’m a lot more active on Twitter, so if you’re there, I do a lot more than I do here! 

I’m not dead, I promise (yet) but I’ll upload stuff I already posted to Twitter when I can (I got into fire emblem lately). If you see my P4 Kak walking around with a Polnareff, feel free to say hi if you’d like, I’d love to meet you! :> 

I’m also hosting a JJBA draw meetup on Saturday, if anyone’s interested!

[badlydrawnkakyoin]

| Saturday, February 18 ★ 3-5PM | Facebook Page |

Katsucon’s coming up really soon and so is the draw meetup!

This is simply a thing where jjba artists and fans to gather, hang out, talk, and draw if they want- anyone is welcome, artist or not! This used to be a badlydrawnjjba thing, but I wanted to make it more general feel more open.

Although the photoshoots are a thing, people usually just come and go when it’s over. I wanted to make a meetup where people could just sit down, hang out, talk, draw and share art.

Currently, the location is set in the carpeted hallway on the gazebo level from 3:00-5:00PM. If, for any reason, people wanna stick around after that, they’re more than welcome to!
