🕑 Added 2021-01-01 00:14:08 +0000 UTCHey guys!
Sorry for the late monthly update. Since this is the end of the month, I’ll just be updating on what’s happened over the month. And a recap of the year.
This was one tough year! But like someone once told me, tough times never last, but tough people do. We’re leveling up! :)

Recent Updates
My life has been hectic and messy lately. Disorganized sticky notes accumulating all around my desk. I’ve reorganized parts of my room to be more efficient to my liking. Frankly, I’m still figuring out what works best for me to produce my work. It’s a push-pull sort of thing every day. Some days I’m able to get through with certain tasks quickly and effectively. And other days it’s an uphill battle. But the good news is that I’m figuring out systems that work for me to keep my work going.
It’s all a trial and error process as I have to tweak what works for me. I’m learning to use the Eisenhower Matrix to maintain important tasks that are needed to be completed first. Gantt Chart to track my daily activities and to also see it from a monthly and yearly perspective. This’ll help see my productivity in the micro and macro.
Goals
There are quite a lot of goals I have in mind. These are a few I'm working on.
- Achieve my standard of 3 comics output monthly.
- Update my website for various supporting materials.
- Quality of life improvements to downloading content.
- Learning more 3D programs.
- Continue to improve storytelling.
- Documenting the creative process.
- Making tutorials.
- Make more stories.
Yearly Review
I was able to complete 13 comics for this year. There is one last comic for 2019 to complete and that is the Projects Skins Ch.2. Sorry guys, this one is stubborn to create.
As of December 2020, there are a total of 31 comics that I will fulfill that haven’t been created yet. It will take time for me to catch up, but I believe I can do it!
My goal is to provide more TG related content and I don’t plan on backing out! I can’t thank you enough for your continued support during the year. Thank you for supporting me along this creative journey.
Hardware Upgrade
Lastly, I upgraded my hardware with your support.
- Graphics Card
- 1070+2080Ti to Dual 3090
- System RAM
- 32GB RAM to 64GB RAM.
- Power Supply Unit
- 750 watts to 1600 watts
I can’t tell you how happy I am to have this upgrade. Ideally, I wanted to build a new computer, but this will suffice for now.
Thank You,

P.S.
I know I’ve been lagging on the tutorial… I’ll try to get a tutorial out next year. XD
