Hello DA, what am I doing here 8D

I've randomly decided to make this post about some projects I might start working on.

Anyone who has been watching me for awhile might have seen my RoKulie CHALLENGE! artworks awhile ago. Here is the gallery folder: [link]

I still have about 15 to go, but at some point I decided I was going to stop doing it because it was pointless. Now, this was back when I had actually started drawing on a regular basis, and it was eating up my time. However, I'm going to stick to my decision to scrap the challenge, because so far most of the characters on my list are pretty similar, and the ones I've done already have been PRETTY BAD considering how old I was when I created them.

But on that note, I'm considering starting a new self-challenge. It would be to redesign all my old, shitty RP characters (the ones who were part of the previous challenge) to make each one more unique and more...interesting. And not all have the same body type and broody personality.

I've also been toying around with the idea of hosting some contests! Woohoo! I'll tell you more about them when I decide to host them.

Another thing I want to do is start a Kickstarter to raise some money and promote my art. I've been trying to think how I'd go about it, though. I don't like it when people sound needy, so if possible I want to avoid the "help me pay my insane hospital bills from my fucked-up pregnancy" card, which was my first and only thought for awhile. Besides, it's more that I want to make a steady income off my art, and less about needing charity. I'm also worried that since a baby is involved, and everyone loves to judge parents, people will gloss over the part where I went to the hospital multiple times and had a baby in the NICU, and just go YOU SHOULDN'T HAVE GOTTEN PREGNANT IF YOU CAN'T AFFORD IT.

Yeah...I foresee an emotional nightmare if I go about it that way. I think I can come up with a better way. I noticed someone I'm watching ran a Kickstarter to raise money for supplies...maybe I can start a big project and ask for help in funding that?

SO ONTO THE NEXT TOPIC: now and then, I've thought about starting a comic. Yes, I would like to make more of my silly Roku comics about my life, and turn that into a webcomic...but I'm talking about something bigger. A manga, if you will. Several years ago I tried to start one, but I eventually gave up to focus on illustrations. Recently I thought if I shortened the story, and just sketched the pages instead of going all pro and inking them on oversized cardstock, maybe I could make myself finish something.

So yeah...that's that. I still haven't joined any contests in awhile. Now I am going to see if I can wash a pile of dishes before the chibi ningen wakes up.
