Short Shenanigans | 5/6/2025

Okay it's not really weekly per say, tell me something I don't know or I'm really need to make plans.


Comic progress

Due to the nature of full script being overwhelming, I have to dial it down to paragraphs synopsis. There is a reason for this because of being a solo creator, full script is an optional thing but I wanna get to the nitty gritty of drawing. The problem arises when you will write like tons of pages for a detailed drawing, they're more like instructions actually than just your guide to drawing thumbnails. It won't work on a solo setting, but this will work on the team setting. That will be my lesson for this, and by now I already drawn the first part of the thumbnails.

Drawing the main character is kinda rough when I was following the outline, the guidelines to pre-ink and outlines are hard to point out. Manner of fact, I am still learning to draw better shapes and maybe anatomy. But without like resources like anatomy books and such, you can call it rough by now. I might watch more Proko videos and like... "practice" drawing? I am sure that I'm naive of this.

Oh, and I'm considering simplifying the language and adding sounds as text. My friend gave me feedback so I thank them for that. I still got a long way to go to draw the other parts and I'm almost finishing the first part (which I got hindered) of the second issue.

Music

Yes, not the recorder. Music, a big works by humankind. I actually been experimenting with music since the time I used to play the yahama keyboard before it broke. Since then I learn what a DAW is, by now I learn how musical elements goes and decide to make melodies of kindish. It kinda feels repetitive on the melody pattern that I for my brain is familiar with, I'm gonna listen to other music."

Coming with Bosca Ceoil and then LMMS, It's always simply jamming to what I can hear and such. For that I kinda delay on this until that one snarky dog decided to put a trail hunt of one of their unreleased music that is stuck on my head by now. Then I got back to making music, learning some music theory and actually making something, then I finish the first song on which I won't tell you the name of it. I was actually satisfied about this, just recently made two more musics and made one of it become a full song as well.

It's not like I do the musical journey thing because I have my primary roles, but oh boy does this dog gives me inspirations. I feel like listening to other music now, perhaps any music that I can take inspiration of... Beside all that, to this day... it's stuck on my head :gloom:

How do I went by now?

I have no idea h2, even though you are blue as a color scheme on my neovim editor with four plugins installed. Typing this without a markdown and lazily type this directly on an html file I copy-pasted in. I have no idea...

I am thinking on making plans on what should I do for anything. Been stacking ideas as txt files and carry on, they came out of nowhere and I have written it by myself. Thinking of how to get ideas is by consuming content online, jot it down if you combine three pre-existing ideas from the internet into one idea, and then left it on the sun or somewhere on storage shelves. There is a word goes that getting ideas comes with three things: Problem Solving, Observation, Listening, and Writing it down. The last one is very important actually, even if it's so simple that you assume you can remember it forever but it actually doesn't.

Having like too many projects is already beyond on how you can handle, leading to complete burnout. Otherwise on the few, then you sort of leave it behind and carry on with your life. There needs to be the in-between, perhaps having like three projects all at once could work for that. The other word goes to say that "I'm not smart enough to do more than one thing at the time", that comes from Animator's Survival Kit

So having like multiple projects is useful but don't make many of them, along with maintaining a scope that's manigable for a person to handle, especially the interest that you are maintaining. The only tough thing for me to do that is how? I'll give it a try though.


Okay, That'll keep this site in check. I'm pretty much just chilling with my neovim after knowing my notepad++ didn't work out for me, I'm actually feel like a tug of war of two editors. But since I learn to pick my plugins on neovim properly, they win and notepad++ stays behind as my former code editor. It doesn't mean it's bad, just that I'm simply done using it with thanks. Anyway, take some time for yourselves cus I am outta here!
