They're Here. Although it's mostly just the one... the answer is "Here".

SO! The new year has finally arrived and I can say without a doubt that it will be something. They always are... but I plan on trying to make this one a decent one.

Thanks to a few recent purchases, I've got a better setup on my Art Desk. My new lamp bathes my desk on a ridiculous amount of repositionable light and I Think I've got a handle on how to film and shoot with it. The new gooseneck camera mount I got let's me get my oddly good webcam into a FAR Better position for filming stuff than before (especially after I moved my monitor to gain space).

What's this all mean? Well... with my 'Net connection being slightly more stabilized within my house, I'm going to try to get back into streaming artwork again.

It's something I've missed doing and have been bummed that forces outside of my control have really killed that drive for so long. Now that I've put some funds into fixing things up to a decent spot, I'm going to give it another go.

My Art Desk system is another thing that, thanks to having switched it out for a newer model, I can actually use for stuff like properly monitoring the feed and whatnot like I used to do.

Bonus: I Just maxed out the memory on my Tablet PC Thingie - the MogNet Tablet PC - and it's working better than it has been. This is a boon to me doing digital work on the go. In fact, it's the reason a few of my more recent pieces are rocking digital inks (Case in Point - Today's update!).

What I'm Slowly getting at is I'm a bit more hopeful for art this year.

I'm not going to claim I'm going to be extra productive or anything. Hell... I'm still trying to recover from the INSANE Amount of Techbro terribleness that has been dumped at the feet of myself and many other artist the over the last few months. What I Am saying is that I'm at least going to try my best.

And with that, I'm out. I've got some food that needs eating and to watch the latest episode of 'The Witch from Mercury' later.

By the by, Gundam.Info is starting to release it weekly for free on their YouTube channel for everyone if you're not down for using a VPN to watch live from an Asia-based location like me. You can find it here. -> [YouTube LinkTastic!]

Remember: Stay Safe. Wear a Mask. Get vaccinated if you can. Get a booster if you're already good on all that. And remember to keep your head up.

Happy New Year. Let's try not to screw things up too bad too fast.

'Till next time! = )
