Current Circumstances and Future Plans

Let me take a moment to explain what I've been up to for the last few days and maybe discuss some future plans I have for this account despite circumstances being what they are.

I recently applied for a second job and I spent the last few days getting through the online training videos I had to finish before the first day of work. Tomorrow (2020.09.25) will be my first day at my new job. I will have to see how demanding it's going to be, but I am anticipating it being exhausting since it's during the night with long hours and potentially labor intensive. Suffice it to say, that while I'm adjusting, it may be difficult to have the motivation outside of my two jobs and sleep to work on furry art.

That isn't to say I haven't been thinking about it. I have also done some sketches but they are more pre-planning kind of stuff which I'm somewhat on the fence to uploading.

My long term plan is to eventually tell a narrative about my character Petroshka, a wrong side of the tracks drifter character that got created in a discord roleplay. However this is rather ambitious for me, his narrative covers potentially multiple adventures each potentially with large casts of additional characters (as a drifter he meets a lot of people on his way). Although I've drawn art pretty much all my life I've never done anything too substantial with it. Mostly I drew to have a picture of what my characters would look like, and the "story" was more of a rough outline in my imagination, never really committed to anything I could show someone, outside of a handful of incomplete comics, writings, animations, games (to name a few). So as a stepping stone towards a more ambitious and long term project I've been trying to come up with ideas for a scaled down managible project that will give me practice with developing and presenting a story. Ideally I want something simple to create but that can still be narratively rich and still resonate with people emotionally. To that end I'm developing short story outside of the Petroshka continuities. The art is going to be a simplified version of the Petroshka style. I've already done some sketches of my core characters and done a story sample, and results are encouraging so far. It still has a way to go but I think it has potential. See "The Kit Crew" for a sneak peak. Stay tuned.
