???????? Licca chan is finally coming to the US ???

whenever i make merch im always rly conflicted on whether to add shading or not
i think until now though i havent shaded at all except for like, adding lighting effects and some gradients so idk if i should keep up the trend or try smt different

my hair grew one cm too long and now it went flat wtf is this

I wanted to draw longer but daylight savings stole an hour from me ueueue

i put roughly 15-60% of my total art abilities in my asks, and thats where i mostly draw lately so i forget i can draw pretty well when i actually put my mind to it yaaay

im a god at drawing actually

so not even 8 pages a day is sustainable for me, I'm gonna try 4 a day
making this change bc I realized i have 77 total days to work on it and I'm already 40% done with it

got ok amount of work done today again

oh the new miku design is actually rly cute

editing my workflow once again and hoping this is the one that finally sticks lmfao

i also have a distinct memory of being kicked out of the arcade in ebina walk bc they dont allow kids after a certain time . heh . (this makes me sound evil but i was w my parents and they very politely told them)

i really liked sagamihara and ebina too but mostly like specific places, like sagamihara park was my favorite park ever, and one of the main shopping places i'd go to was ebina walk i bought a million ocarinas there even tho i knew they were all shitty

i never actually rode many of the rides in cosmo world bc apparently it was like? you paid per time you ride it . i only remember riding one of the log rides maybe? anyway i always looked at cosmo world as a kid like 🥺

to be honest . ive always kinda wanted to revisit the area i grew up in . i remember rly loving yokohama as a kid . i remember cosmo world.

akihabara im not as big a fan anymore either but it's like a toxic relationship i know it ain't shit but i keep going back to her anyway

just crowded as hell overall too and i dont remember rly buying anything it just kinda wasnt super worth it . the main thing i liked was that i tried banh mi for the first time it was rly rly good

if i were to go to tokyo again i think....i could ditch harajuku i still think about how there was a literal mountain of trash next to a "no littering" sign and also how a dad told his kids to throw people out of the way to get through a crowd

IN GENERAL I MISS BICYCLES SO FUCKIN GBADDD I LOVED BICYCLES GROWING UP

i honestly want a bicycle really bad in japan but im only there once a year or once every other year

honestly. even walking sucks there it's pretty bad everything's so overgrown now

living in bumfuck city ibaraki fawking sucks like no wonder no one wants to live there when there's no public transit and u have to drive 20 mins to the nearest train station

HELP while I'd love to hang out again my mom's really insistent that we won't go outside of ibaraki this time around :( I don't know if she'll change her mind by then bc she keeps saying this every time but yknow </3

i wont be anywhere Near broke even after everything unless smt diabolical happens but yknow

anyway it's stuff im thinking about bc i rly might travel by myself for the first time, which will def take out a good chunk of money . and then theres a good chance ill go to japan again too later this year . and also idk how my health insurance situation will work out bc im aging out

yeah theres vgen but the idea of ratings and stuff gives me anxiety

the twitter DMs just becoming evil kinda sux...it hasnt rly hit me how bad it is bc my current comms are all thru discord (and im not taking more until i finish my plate) but if i ever find myself needing to openly advertise comms again ummmmmmm

I wouldnt say my brain shut down after those two deadlines but i feel like ive been in another dimension

Slowly doing work again but otherwise mostly chilled

fighting for my life trying to figure out how to draw these striped leggings when they're bent so i look up references and 90% of them are striped black and white close together which is a neurological trigger for me mamma mia

Floating elements in a charm are kinda difficult wtf how do i position this halo without the outline turning out weird
