I am entering the sixth year of a five-year sabbatical

Was just at the second voice 3 days ago, I'm trying to do art differently to lessen, if not destroy that voice 😂

Something I love so deeply shouldn't be hurting me when I don't do a good job or want to spend time on other hobbies <3

i absolutely understand that feeling of like "omg I gotta do something" but you truly can't rush art! it's something that truly comes from your heart and if anything you're like the only person I see on the TL with content so I say ur doing fine lol. just don't burn urself out !

Burnout is my biggest fear, but also always on my mind lol. I'm making a thingy that's going to talk about burnout later this week, but holy I went through it in November

relatable, honestly, though more of the second one lately

Made this about a decade ago. I feel ya.

if it helps at all, im constantly impressed by the volume of art you put out and you're massively inspiring as someone who is in the process of learning lowpoly myself ;_;

but i know as well as anyone that the self-doubt doesnt listen to reason, or change based on what others think ^^;

Thank you.

My adhd amplifies this thought process. I wish I was one of those who could draw 24/7

itssohiroverextra.bsky.social•41 days ago

I don't even know what to say, cause while I don't post daily, I still open blender daily. On top of that, im still also envious of people who just only draw all day

bonytheartist.bsky.social•41 days ago

Hehehehh yeaaahh it do be like that

jayngarts.bsky.social•41 days ago

I literally did 2 pieces last week and 2 comics the week before plus an extra and I still feel lazy for not cranking out another full drawing today.

This is the thing I don't like lol, I made 29 character pose renders in one sitting last friday for a project im finishing this week, but even having all of that done lost its satisfaction the next day. It's really annoying sometimes

itssohiroverextra.bsky.social•41 days ago

Like I think me dropping every other hobby I've tried has conditioned me to be in flight or fight mode 24/7. The thing is though is that Hirover means so much to me, im not like "OH IM NOTHING WITHOUT HIROVER" but Hirover is so important to me that i need to trust that i will just keep making art

itssohiroverextra.bsky.social•41 days ago

I need to see where this all goes if anything. I'm not a daily account anymore, I don't need to stick to that rigidity anymore. I need to just work with the ebb and flow of stuff. Idk. Don't trust thoughts after 9pm lol

lostthedreamer.bsky.social•41 days ago

The second one happens during artblock or when you can't deal with being inconvenienced anymore because your line won't line properly 🙃
