#failed challenge

There goes my streak down the drain. I failed the 7 day challenge lol 😂 With summer about a week away, my soul refuses to study, so here is one last time, before I zone out

Sketch, sketch, sketch, BOOM, instant improvement as the last photo shows. Exploring my own Undertale AU and go in a much different direction than a Fellswap type. Bonus, did a self portrait to update my profile pics and it is quite an improvement.

My dumb ass thought it was penis, but oh well

note to self...try the watch a “stripped down” twenty one pilots video without getting so up in your feelings you gotta lie on the floor challenge

Inktober was the first challenge I ever did and managed to complete. I was really excited to do it again this year and had done some planning to limit what medium and size I was going to be working at. But classes struck again, and I didn't get past day 10 or something on this project/challenge. It was really disappointing because after that first one I had decided to switch to color and I was trying really hard to also stick to a cohesive style and it just didn't happen.  I tried to keep it up on some off days where I can have access to my supplies because of work and I didn't end up revisiting those drawings and getting them back in line with the rest of the work I had been doing so disappoint there too. I was enjoying myself with this challenge at times and these are some of the best of this year’s attempt. It's not like I don't have problems with some of these but they're at least the ones I hate the least. Sticking with a certain size and a certain medium on top of the prompt list for this Inktober was really great but my time management and creativity wasn't. I was running a group project at the time and it felt like herding cats. So that ended up taking not only a huge amount of my creativity and time but also a lot of the spoons that I had for dealing with additional stress.  I really just wish I could have stuck to it because it was just another disappointment after missing completion on both MerMay and KaiJune. But perhaps it was an unrealistic expectation that in my final class during my final project during my final year that I would be able to do an art challenge while finishing up my degree and working. I still don't understand how some people have enough energy to have a job and go to school and do family and social things and then still be creative on the side with constant improvements. It's baffling and amazing all at once.
