I planned on writing this thought-out and structured post on the struggle (it’s real) with my 100 Days of Heroes but if I don’t have time to finish my sketches then why would I magically have time to write a sensible post? I’m so silly.

Anyways the fact is that the drudgery of an office job got the best of me and I moped around the house after work instead of being productive. And the usual cycle of “Hey I think I’m actually improving LEGGO” and “I totally suck why even try” was getting stuck in the latter part. 

But I’m almost at the half-way mark, and then after than it will (hopefully?) be a downhill joy ride from there. Baby steps, fellas, baby steps. 

So I totally thought about just finishing out the 100 Day Project silently and not post any of my sketches but then I remembered the point of doing this project in the first place: community. I used to browse through the 100 Day Project hashtag on instagram and randomly leave encouraging comments on people’s posts because, community y’all. I was really hype on the togetherness of this project and I stuck with it for a while. But when my posts were averaging about 20 likes each I figured, Who cares? Maybe one comment if it was a good day. No one’s really buying into this and I don’t know really know of any friends who are into making stuff so no one to commiserate with. So why not just draw for myself? 

But during my short break I had four different people mention the project and how they looked forward to the next post. I know, I know, four is not even a nickel, but to someone who is broke on followers, four pennies can seem like a fortune (FOURTUNE? AM I PUNNY?) especially on those days you feel like you don’t have anything to sell.

Wow that metaphor went further than I wanted. Moooooooving a long! I want to finish this project. I am going to finish this project. I am going to draw 100 heroes within 100 days (give or take a couple). I’m not going to be happy with all my sketches, but out of 100 there might be some that are maybe decently okay.
