Rate this from 1-10 👀✨🥖

FR tho, Testing out the colors, alignment, laminate, and other settings made me want to pull my hair 🫠🫠 (I went through like 20 or so failed attempts before finding this nice sticker)

I’m so glad to finally be able to find the settings that works for me ✨

Sorry for the inactiveness, if ask why the inactiveness, welp, this sticker thingies took all of my weekend to setup and do trial and error 🫠

Have you watched Kpop demon hunter? ✨👀

Of course I gotta draw this derpy tiger and sussy birb NGL I enjoy the show way too much than I expected

I guess I’ve set my bar too low for original animations, since the recent one that came out was kinda meh :/

🥖 I don’t work at an anime industry 🇯🇵.

🥖 I don’t work at an anime industry 🇯🇵. Many think that since I live in the big city like Osaka, l’m working at a popular anime studio. But nope, my current day job is as a graphic designer and social media content creator. While it’s a creative job, it’s not what people think when I said I’m an artist in Osaka

🥖 Creative job in Japan is not all fun exciting 😅. I have lots of overtime from my day job which hinders me from pursuing my dream, and I can’t stress enough how much stress and frustration this puts me in. But I have come to peace with it and see my job as just a job, period. Something to aid my future self: to build my safety net on savings, purchase the tools needed, and gain experience. That aside I still can’t get over how much time I wasted doing overtime here 😭

🥖 I don’t strive high enough on career. Working at an anime related industry is not my dream job, and I know this will dissapoint a lot of my peers. I want to pursue a career making cute goods, comics, and character. It was actually a fellow creator who introduced me to this career path of IP character creator which I immediately fell in love with and started pursuing it from my uni day. I don’t want to be a girl boss career woman, I want a slow life and have the flexibility to spend time with my loved ones

🥖 But, I didn’t get to pursue my dream job after I graduated art uni 🫠. As mentioned above, working industry job was never on my plate. But due to family and monetary problem, I was forced to put a halt on pursuing my dream and work industry job. But this year, things have calmed down, and I’m finally back onto pursuing my dream, it’ll be hard to start from 0 again and will probably take years, but I’m so excited and I hope things will go smoothly ✨
