HHHEEEEEEEYYYYYYY!!!
ITS BEEN LIKE UHHH... NEARLY 2 YEARS SINCE I'VE SAID ANYTHING ON THIS SITE?!
Haha okay in all seriousness I'm SO sorry for the long absence, I really am.
The truth is I haven't been around for 3 main reasons...
1. Personal life issues
I don't want to get into too much details, but to put it bluntly... after graduating from high school (since the start of 2015) I slowly degraded into someone will no dream plan/goal, or a personal path to follow. And also overtime my mental health got pretty bad, right now it's slowly getting better, but before I had over-mild anxiety and depression.
2. Artists block
Or more like artist insecurity... more or less whenever I wanted to draw something, that fear of uncertainty will always come and haunt me. But then again I guess it was my fault, since (after looking at A LOT of great artworks) I became too perfectionistic to the point that I felt uncomfortable drawing. Right now I'm slowly trying to revive that drawing spirit I had since I started here, so hopefully I'll draw some things before this year ends haha
3. Differed interests
Okay this one is probably the main reason why I was too unsure on coming back to this site, mainly because most you guys who are watching are here for my Sonic related drawings. The truth is after Sonic Boom happened, I lost interest in anything related to it. I mean I still reblog a few good posts on Tumblr, I just don't fangirl much as I use to here (but the new game might spark that interest again, who knows really)
Moving on before I lose track, I felt that if I were to draw something of different interest, I worry that I might 'betray' some of my older watchers here. Speaking of interests I'm pretty much hells deep into the anime fanbase, and a few handful of other things.
So yeah, those are the reasons of my super long inactiveness here on DA.
I do come back here to favourite artworks (and occasionally comment on things), but it terms of posting my own drawings or even chatting here, I've been pretty dead here. But since I've finally been able to get this off of my chest, hopefully I can try and use this site like I did in the old days (I can't say that I promise tho, because I'm pretty much mainly active on YouTube and Tumblr, but I'll still try my best)
Again I really apologise for this irresponsibleness that I've caused here... I hope they'll be forgiven, but I understand otherwise...
Furthermore if you're still watching me for the Sonic stuff, feel free to unfollow me since I'll be rarely drawing anything related to it (unless I'll open up for future commissions) But I hope some of you guys decide to stay and wait for future drawings, mainly related to anime!
SOOOOO... YEAH!
Thank you guys for reading this super long (belated) update! And I hope you'll look forward to anything coming soon hopefully! <3

PPS. Some of you are wondering since I'm no longer into Sonic much, what will become of my FC's? Well right now I don't have any plans in particular, but hopefully if I feel the ambition to make a series/project of my own, I'll bring back my characters in some way or another! :3c
Anyways I think I'm done here, hopefully I'll see you guys more than before!
Cya! Until next time!
