Work Update + Playlist to Boost Spirits

Posted by CyberneticShotokan - January 11th, 2024


Firstly I'd like to share what I'm Planning/Working on this Year again so those interested don't gotta dig through Posts/Tweets.


  • Making Multiple Art Accounts, some focused on SFW. Some NSFW, some Main Accounts like this where it's anything goes. I've already made a DeviantArt, a Substack, a Pixiv, and some more. Plan to make Art-Only Accounts for NG, DA, Twitter, and more.
  • Getting the Art Explosion done. This will be especially good for my DeviantArt and other Art Accounts I make since I've only put a bit of my Art Gallery here on those. A few more Illustrations and I'll feel like I got enough. Uploading all at once so prepare.
  • Broaden my Arts and Subjects. I'm learning how to use RPG Maker, Blender, Audacity and more. Also practicing Music again and Writing more. Gonna have a Wide Variety of Subjects, from Innocent to Extreme. Cartoony to Realistic Stylization.
  • Streaming. Gonna learn VTuber Modeling, Rigging and the like and start streaming (Hopefully) within the Year.
  • Getting Paid. Been talking directly to Patreon Support for some questions I had and it seems much less complicated than I imagined. Thought I got my First Paid Gigs on DA but those are most likely Scams. Looking for any jobs a Cripple can get without messing with my Disability Pay. Shit's how I've been paying off the place I got in 2020, and I've been working my Ass off on it and my Parents' since. I can do physical labor, on Good Days. But that's enough of that.
  • Becoming a Newgrounds Supporter and exploring the site more. I have a very bad Habit of just sticking to the Art Portal when this place has been Bursting with Art longer than I've been Alive. It Deserves to be seen.
  • Just interacting with peeps again.


And secondly, a Playlist to keep Spirits up in what's most likely going to be an Insane Year:


  • Come Out ye Black and Tans (Irish Rebel Song) ((Many Irish Rebel Songs/Sea Shanties Right Now Honestly))
  • I'm Back (To Rise) by Mick Gordon and Omega Sparx
  • All I Can Do by Naoki Hashimoto and Daisuke Ishiwatari
  • Extras by Daisuke Ishiwatari and Molly Daisy Scarpine (Pretty Much The Entire GG Strive OST, I'm Smitten)
  • Barrel of a Gun by Little V and Black Pestilence
  • Dragon of Sparda's Mixes on YouTube
  • I Am Vengeance by Mega Ran and Gr3ysOn
  • Okumura Music Group's Entire Discography. I'm Not Joking
  • Gorillaz's Entire Discography
  • SUPERWHAT by MF DOOM and Czarface
  • R.N.D.M by Mega Ran
  • BBTAG's Mixes of Ruby, Weiss, Blake, and Yang's Themes
  • Vs. Sayu by James Landino and Nikki Simmons
  • [lofi villain] by D Begun
  • Memories of Tokyo-To and Sounds of Tokyo-To Future by 2 Mello (BRC Fans Might Recognize Some Tunes)
  • What Do You Fight For? by Naoki Hashimoto and Daisuke Ishiwatari
  • I Got Next by Mega Ran and Zaid Tabani
  • This Fffire and Take Me Out by Fran Ferdinad
  • Let You Down by Dawid Podsiadlo

And Honestly Much Much More I Could List. Might add more suggestions in the comments if anyone's Interested.


Good Luck, Stay Safe, Tag Walls, Punch Fascists.


Comments

Btw I Know My Ass Kept Saying You Won't See Me For A While, I Expected That To Be The Case.

It's more accurate to say I'll be on very Sporadically

I GOT A PHONE AGAIN LET'S GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Man I'm drinking 000righ0t now, and I get so Sing-Songy when I'm Drunk XD

whoops

*right

oh nuuuuu I'm hiccupping

Man I feel like if I used a Laptop more than my Phones for most my Art Career I'd have had a much easier time when it comes to Archiving my Work/Progress/Interactions. I'll be able to keep track of everything much more efficiently now that I'm using both.

Not to mention it's gonna be a lot of Fun learning to use stuff like Blender.

I Hope if I get nothing else related to it done I at least succeed in making my Art Life much more Productive and Healthy this year

I'm working on it right now, but my SFW Twitter will host any Art I make that isn't Super Violent or Sexy. So honestly most of what I've shared on here.
1/3

- Expect the Upper Echelon of T Ratings on Newgrounds and the ESRB to be the Capstone for what goes on there.

- If any Comic I make is relatively Tame until a Spike in Edge it's going on here or NSFW. So I don't separate pages.

- I'll still talk on there, but this and any place you see this should be considered a Personal Page. I'll share Major Info tho.

- On any SFW I make I will only follow SFW. If you'd like a Cleaner Place to see my Work/Hear my Thoughts those'll be Ideal.

Whoops I Copied The Tweet Count

Oh Another Work Update:

I've made a Substack. I'll do Major News Updates here (NG, Twitter, DA) like usual, but I'm thinking of keeping all my Written Work there for now. I'd like to clean the News Posts off my Newgrounds as I've mentioned too (Maybe I'll Make Them A Patreon Thing To Archive 'Em In A Way Only Those Interested Can Find, Spare Others Of My Newbie Whinging). I got ideas for stuff I wanna write, and a lot more Time to do so now that I've cancelled my Scream Retrospective. I'll share two right now: a Review of No More Heroes 3 and a Big Analysis of RWBY because I've been real Nostalgic for it lately. Got other Ideas too but I'll save talking about them for when they're ready. I got a Habit of Overpromising I need to break as an Artist. Anyway, feel free to let me know if you'd still want me to post Written Work as News Posts on here. I'm undecided whether to do so or not.

I'm listening to a bunch of SiIvagunner and Triple-Q Mashups/Collabs atm.

Man I Miss The 2010s

I did it, I made the SFW Twitter. I'll begin posting Art I've made there later on. It'll be more "Professional" than here but I'll still Chat and Retweet and stuff. This was purely made for people who want to follow me without smut on TL and I don't trust the Content Filters on Twitter.

I considered doing the same for my NG and now my DA, but their Content Filters are far superior; even to the Point of Overkill with DA I've heard. I think I'll unfollow some accounts here and follow them there just to clear up my TL a bit more. (Disregard The Unfollowing Non-Twitter Viewers)

Been doing a lot these past few weeks, so after I’m done putting Art on the SFW I’ll probably be off for a few days. I’ll make an NSFW Twitter when I got enough Lewds and Hyper-Violence to give it a good gallery soon too.

So every site I use so far for Art is:

Newgrounds (Homebase)

Twitter (2nd Main)

DeviantArt (3rd Main)

Pixiv

Substack.

This has been a very productive but tiring few weeks. But it’s nice to be in this kinda Groove again.

Story Time:

So I was just chilling out with some tunes after getting some work done, ‘bout to grab some Food. Then my Mom calls for help.

In the time since I’ve last been on my Family got a new Dog. And she got Pregnant right around Thanksgiving. Well she finally started giving Birth today. My Mom let her out to potty and…dropped a Baby in the Snow XD

She immediately grabbed the Pup and shooed the Dog Mom inside while calling for me, I’m upstairs.

Try to convince the Dog to get in a nest they made but she gets on couch.

Dog Settles, and my Mom brings the Pup over. A Big, Healthy Baby Boy ?

Dog Mom is doing Very Good and Pup has Healthy appetite. We’re expecting 1-2 more considering how big this one once.

This is a Huge Relief, we were all expecting this to be waaaaay rougher. Though I did have to clean a Good Deal of Blood. So I’ll be busy helping out with that the next few weeks. I almost cried, the Father and our other Doggie were being so gentle with it, and I think the other Doggie will be a Good Influence like my Late Boy, Copper. And the Pup seems like such a Sweetheart.

Again this is a Huge Relief. But I might be very Inactive for a bit.

2024 Art Goal Progress Report:

- Made Almost All The Art Pages I Want For Now

- Will be able to manage all them much easier with access to a Laptop again.

- Feeling a Healthier Balance with my Work/Time Online again, despite taking things much quicker than I thought.

- Have been learning about how to properly use Online Banking and Gearing Up to start Comm Work.

- Learning to expand the Mediums I partake in by practicing w/ Blender, RPG Maker, Musical Instruments, and more.

And yeah, just actually doing stuff again. Being able to see the proper Archives of my Newgrounds and Twitter on Desktop is a Big One. It started getting very hard on Mobile alone. Especially on Twitter because of the Multitude of stuff/people I follow.

I started writing some stuff down just to keep track, along with my Studies and IRL Commitments. That did help, but started taking up Work Time. When I’m done sorting these pages out I’ll have so much time to actually be productive in a Creative Sense.

It’s been nice reconnecting to people and just chatting with Strangers again too. It is one of my Favorite Parts about all of this, having a chance to interact with so many vastly varying people and perspectives. So far my time back has felt like my Early Days.

But yeah. Major Goals Left:

- Finish Art Explosion. I want to add at least 15 more pieces first, and not just Characters either. Got some new ones cooking and need to finish a lotta WIPs still.

- Start Writing Again. Critical and Creative.

- Streaming. A Long Shot but still

- Commission Work. Gonna be hard to work this in a way where I don’t get swamped by Requests but I wanna get this going this Year.

- Voicework. Always loved doing VA and Sounds just for Fun. Got a Decent Range if I say so myself, especially when it comes to Beastial Stuff.

- Music. Mostly making Beats or playing the Keyboard, for now.

- Animation. I’d like to Jailbreak my First Digital Animation too but One Step at a Time.

- And whatever I can fit into the Year.

I’m aiming mostly for a Steady but Productive Pace. Wish the same to you, Reader.

So I did a little experiment with my new SFW Twitter. Long Story Short: If you make an SFW Twitter and you’re not interacting with people or chasing Trends you will barely be pushed by the System and I knew that was gonna be the case but I’m still disappointed by it.

Combat Instructions from the Shotokan:

Practice the CQC Old and Venom Snake use, preferably with a partner. Particularly the basic combo OS uses. Aim for the Ball Joints of the Shoulders and Hips, then go for a Trip. A Near Guaranteed method to take someone down without harm.
