Overall I would say 2024 was a good year personally and artistically.
The main highlight was getting more comfortable and open with my art which I think was the best thing I've done since I made my comeback in 2018. Despite the challenges regarding censorship from different websites and platforms I forged ahead, drawing more characters and having some kinky fun with them, several of which I wanted to have fun with ages ago. Particularly apparent is the amount of Hamtaro art I made this year, featuring their birthdays in traditional and non traditional ways. Best of all, Penelope! X3 There was even fun featuring some human here and there, and I'm sure there will be more yet! But I think I only barely scratched the surface as far as where I think I can go with my interests, and my friends and teammates
I added more OCs this year than any other as well, including the Shock Twins who bullied Sparks the entire year, Towards the end I added BP the yamper and just recently Jolts the Pikachu, Sparks younger bro. These additions will be HUGE in forming upcoming pics and comics.
As for upcoming plans:
1) I plan on a project I've been wanting do for a while, but haven't found the motivation for, is a Buttdex! That is, the Pokedex featuring all Pokemon but well, the pichu90 angles ;P This will go in order of Pokemon number/generation, and each pic will be done by evolution family or in some cases, a pic featuring all the variants of a single Pokemon (e.g. gender/shiny/regional/alt forms). Along with each Pokemon there will be a Peach/Pecha rating from 1 to 5 from Professor Sparks. Yes, there will be NSFW versions too.
A few questions regarding some Pokemon that don't have defined rears will get disqualified from the rating and no pictures for them. I will attempt to remain on model as much as I can, no anthro surgery but there may be some creative liberty with a few choice pokemon if possible. The tentative schedule is to go weekly, but sometimes this may end up being every other week for when I'm busier or open commissions.
2) I will do a calendar for the Jewelpets! This will go by monthly featuring the Jewelpets by the month of their birthday to keep it simple. Yes, featuring the pichu90 angles again but may hopefully come up with something clever each month >w<
3) Something involving humans, but this will generally go in my Pixiv or Pawoo/Baraag account - once a month generally. This one is still something I'm trying to practice for fun, as I'm not as good with humans.
There will be more than planned here, thanks to ideas from friends and commissions, but I foresee more fun expanding my horizons in 2025 and I am not stopping!
I know we've been brainstorming but now that it's been said aloud it sounds like you're committing to a lot
It's going to be a year to look forward to but remember to give yourself time to rest, friend. I'll always be here if you ever start to feel burnout 😊

Happy new year, Pichu90! Here's hoping Team Sparks would grow, not only as a team, but also a family! (Sparks and Yarn's offspring) (I wonder if that could happen though.)
