I started a bluesky due to some requests.

024 Recap

General:

Felt very similar to 2023, but with a worse general state of the world both online and offline. I have personally been off the internet as much as possible to preserve my health. Other than that I have been doing quite well, with many parts of my life staying the same or improving. I have been very happy with my creative output this year, and have been trying my best and really pushing myself to draw a variety of different things and improve my fundamentals.

Health:

Still doing cardio every day - weight remains low

I attended two goth events this year - social anxiety is getting better!

Still addiction free

Still working the same job

Maintaining connection with friends and family

Media:

18 video games completed for the first time, including:

Silent Hill 3 and the SH2 Remake

Umineko

Resident Evil 1 Remake, RE4 Remake, RE5

16 novels read, including:

Les Miserables

The Count of Monte Cristo

The Black Company

A ridiculous amount of horror movies were watched.

Creative:

1000 Followers!

50 illustrations submitted to the art portal, here are my personal favorites from 2024:

Looking Forward:

I want to increase the variety of horror content I produce, with more original pieces and bonus sketches added to the usual mix of fan art.

I want to work on composition and general focus of pieces, as well as ironing out more of the jank that comes from being a self taught artist that only started learning fundamentals recently.

I also do want to try my hand at making some comics and uploading more traditional pieces - particularly with ink.

More bonus content in the form of goth and horror cosplay, miniatures, and general crafts - this will not be added to portal, but will be in the occasional news post.

My Personal site may be receiving an update later in the year...

And I wish to get outside more and experience the world. After all, without social media, I have a lot of time.

Upload days are Saturdays and Wednesdays, depending on how long a project takes.

Thank you for following me and my little projects this year, I feel very fortunate to have a following as supportive as you.

Merry Christmas, everyone!

I have a new drawing in store, but it is currently running late due to being busy for with work and holiday family events. I hope everyone is having a great holiday and I look forward to sharing even more drawings before the year is up!

My area got hit by a power outage that lasted the past 2 days. It has been restored as of a couple hours ago. This weeks drawing may be uploaded later than usual.

2023 was a great year for me!

54 uploads to the art portal were made.

Participated in the Dinosaurs Attack Collab

Flew to Philadelphia and attended the too many games meet up (I even met Tom Fulp in person!

20 novels were read.

A large number of horror movies were watched.

Many schizophrenia simulators were experienced (I played a lot of weird indie games and cult classics this year)

I have lost nearly 25% of body weight (cardio and a diet without meat or sugar will do wonders for that)

I have a job that I enjoy.

I live alone.

I now have 0 addictions - not even caffeine!

I really got into music more.

And don't you worry, I have some absolutely nightmarish drawings in store for next year...

Hello fellow internet dwellers, I hope your christmas was merry, mine certainly was. Here are some highlights of my holiday:

Happy spooky month, my fellow newgrounds users. As a resident goth creature, I figured now was a good time for an update.

Things are going exceptionally well right now.

>Every day I wake up.

>Diet and exercise have remained pristine throughout the year, have lost 40 pounds in 9 months, meaning I weigh less than I did in my mid teens.

>Acquired some new hobbies and skills (reading books, listening to alternative music, cleaning, cooking, getting more into makeup and fashion)

>Refining and experimenting already existing skills (The art gallery hopefully shows this!)

>Work as a maid IRL, nearly 6 months now! (cleaning houses is fun and I don't have to interact with others if I do not want to)

An almost complete 180 from last year, and I feel good. Never give up, and always remember happy day!

It is nearly 2 AM, but here are some pictures of your favorite eldritch horror.

Goblinoid goth squat ^

We have bloodborne at home :P

Ps: More art stuff very soon! I have some special stuff lined up for this month.

I did a cosplay - Samarie from Fear and Hunger Termina!

Also touched grass.

Also new drawing soon.

I now have a Tumblr:

https://www.tumblr.com/mitchelf-citadel

Art will be posted there as well as here and my personal site and pixiv.

Mainly used to keep an eye on fandom stuff for Fear & Hunger.

Messages are open and I will be keeping an eye on it as well as NG.

He has advice for you...

Dredged up some high octane nightmare fuel from the pits of hell.

I plan to share it with you this weekend once the refinement process completes.
