I've been hanging on for a while, but it's time to bow out of dA!

I joined this website and began drawing here as a teenager - now as an adult, my priorities have matured and I've moved onto bigger, better things.
dA looks like a time capsule to my younger years because my watchlist is still tailored to the tastes I had when I was younger. In the coming weeks I'll be filtering out my feed and making sure that only what I need to see will reach me.
Funny how times change; there's now even a generation of people on this earth younger than dA. Crazy, isn't it?

I've made incredible memories here and made wonderful friends. I'm reminiscing about how as a young artist I used to make art whenever I had no one to turn to, and now that I have people to talk to, I don't need to do that anymore. It's true that my current art lacks the same raw fuel of emotional teenage angst, but that's both a curse and a blessing - now I draw not because I have to, but because I still like drawing.

My art won't go anywhere - my account will remain up as a portfolio, and newer pieces will pop in as archives for my Twitter posts.

Below are links to places you'll find me now:

Discord: (ask me)

As I've said before, I am most active on Twitter, where I still draw sometimes. Perhaps we'll meet again there - or at the Artist's Alley of an anime convention, or at a Tristate Smash local, or anywhere words might reach.

You know where to find me - hit me up here if you'd like to contact me anywhere else! It's been real, homies <:

All my Knife Kirbys live there with all my other 3D-printed pins and charms.

owo what's this

2 min read
Hey! Just cleared out 2000+ notifications down to 300...it's been a hot minute, here's what's up:

  • I'm confirmed as a table artist for CPAC 2019! Super hype to show the merch I've got planned for this year (among them, 3D printed things and painted weeb sceneries)
  • Nobody has drawn a gijinka of Sword and Blade in years (I've checked) and I'd like some motivation to fix that really quick
  • I wish talking to people online was a lot easier for me to invest in; IRL, I'm better than I've ever been without a relationship tethering me online, but I miss having all kinds of online interactions sometimes.
    • So follow me on Twitter @warpyofthestars! It'll take another hot minute but I'll return to Discord eventually too.
  • The current state of Kirby canon has me shook; not in an open-ended, imaginative way that the anime did but by spoonfeeding lore and answering canon questions I thought were better left to speculation. IE. Kirby's nature as an Elder God. I still believe the plot of Kirby Star Allies would've worked better as an another anime.
  • I'm really feelin' competitive Smash; it fills the void for galaxy-brained fighting mindgames that I had after retiring from fencing
    • Shulk (Monado) Arts coming soon
How are y'all?

@warpyofthestars! It's mostly Smash content now, but the art will come, both here and there. GG, folks!
