It's fine to be ambitious and shine among the crowd, but there's merit in natural beauty as well!

Gold Bind has no association with Gold Bond, pls don't sue lol

Hey, glad to be back again, big apologies on the wait for this. This was something that really should have been finished during June or the first week of July at the latest.

But it's been a mix of two things, one is looking to (re)learn textures so I can reliably be able to put together art ideas at a more consistent pace. I've learned ways to do stone texture and I wanted to do this gold texture again since it's been two years that I've colored it, but I like to set myself a gold standard (heh) on areas I want to set for years to come. Hopefully, the next instance of this should come out faster since I found a color layer set for it that I enjoy.

I have a few other textures I want to learn, one is a quick-dry cement texture and a few selections of ice (block, frost, a see-through coating, quite a variety to choose from!) that'll be coming up in a future set of ideas. There will be more, but these will be the main focus for most (or rest) of this year. I'm looking to increase my output closer to a pace of 3-5 weeks and not, uh, 3ish months >.> Since I'm still learning a few new things that I want to look its best, this pace will take a while for it to come to fruition, but I look forward to being able to reach that point.

The second thing is I got blindsided with Cover releasing a fourth HololiveEN wave called Justice, and I've been taking time to watch streams to gauge their personality and cadence of speaking to plan out funny comic scenarios. And for those that enjoyed the Advent idea, given Justice is meant to be a counter to that group, look forward to where I'm leaning to go with them (hmmmmm just ice...). I still have that schedule I'm following in my recent status update, but if I build up that Justice idea enough, I might splice it in. If I do, I'll do another update to let everyone know.
