Back to work?! [10/8/23 update]

Posted 7 months, 8 days ago by FishFishFish

Figured I'd make a bulletin on this acc for an update where I'm at art-wise! I apologize for the lack of activity here, but I'm absolutelyΒ hoping to be much more active starting 2024!

After AGES of putting up with excruciating thumb pain that's gotten especially unbearable as of this year, I finally had trigger thumb surgery on 9/27!! After testing the waters with linework a little bit, I THINK I should be good to continue working pretty soon (albeit, gently and a little bit at a time)! :D I'm so excited!! I'll try to do a little bit each day, but even with my recovering incision I feel SO much better drawing in general and it's crazy... Everything I've been unable to work on due to the worsening pain feels like a realistic goal now, I'm so PUMPED to work on everything again! (I hope I'm not getting too ahead of myself here and it stays like this after complete recovery OTL) I'll be making some changes to my work flow here as I work around recovery and doodling to the best of my ability! I'll try to work at finishing some of my unfinished adopt concepts next year, and /try/ to release maybe 1 adopt for halloween granted I finally clear my to-do and get bonuses done for patience first! TY for checking this update, I really hope I'm going to be able to get back into the groove of adopts and comms with pain out of the way! πŸ’•πŸ’•πŸ’•

I hope to login to this account more often and take up commissions again starting next year! : 3


(If anyone has any adopt ideas/suggestions or concepts you'd like to see finished, feel free to suggest too!! Hoping 2024 will be the year I get back into it all! Β  )

I’d love to see this old design and especially this multi eyes finished :3 because I know I would jump on these two in a heart beat πŸ‘€ πŸ‘€ πŸ‘€Β 

Glad to hear that your thumb and hand are doing better. I hope it stays that way

I'd love to eventually see shrimp dragon get finished

As someone who has inflammatory arthritis i get what you mean, once the pain leaves it's such a relief on your soul

still so excited

also for adopt ideas i recommend looking up dnd monster

one of my personal favs is the displacer beast. its like a giant puma or panther but with an extra pair of legs and barbed tendrils coming out of their shoulders

they have a natural enemy called blink dogs. giant monsterous dogs that can teleport

also owlbears are great and would totally fit your style

(i would grab that adopt so fast if you did and i had the monz)
