Description For charcoalfeather  ! This was super fun to do, the dress was great. I strongly suggest you go check out their story Blue Star  because it’s very interesting. The cast is full of strong characters like Katya here.

I've been experimenting with that style a bit.

The textures! The colours! The atmosphere...I'm amazed by this and can't stop staring at it! The moon behind her head is perfect, and it highlights her melancholy expression. I like how her hair is so bright compared to the rest of the picture. The colours fit together perfectly and the folds of her dress feel very realistic, like I can reach out and touch the cloth. 

Thanks for doing this for me again! One of the best commissions I've ever gotten!

I'm so happy you like it, thank you for the commission! Doing it was a great break from all the school art I'm doing.

How is your school art? Is your schedule just as crammed as last year btw?

im not liking the school art so far...flash is a really clunky program 
it's even more crammed than last year. xD

you graduated, no? how's it not being in school?

I've graduated, yes, and it's just sort of painful looking for a job, but I'm getting more interviews now that summer's over. Also might start just private tutoring on the side since getting someone to hire you for an actual good position can be difficult sometimes. Gotta really put myself out there and start networking more, which is happening now! I might go back to school next year anyways, to start a PhD since I do want to see if I can become a professor eventually (haha--tough luck).

Flash does have a lot of problems. Do you have to make animations with it for school?

I can imagine. That's good to look to other options! Good luck man, I'm sending you all the good vibes I can. Hey, if you wanna be a professor I'm sure you can. 
Yeah, I do. It's so clunky and the animations well...flash animations look awful.

Thank you! It can be tough just coming out of school and then realizing you have to choose something and start putting yourself out there. It takes some time to adjust, to realize you're finally free now but that freedom is also a bit stressful due to expectations and such (what kind of job will you get? HOW long will it take you to find one? Are you willing to take any job that accepts you, just because you're afraid of unemployment? etc.) 

Do you guys get to try other animation programs?
