Description Im so sorryyyy i literally have nothing to post here so have Yume with probably her new face shape because i'm crying inside. But also a few updates-

1) I've becoming more active with posting on Instagram for the main reason being that I don't feel right posting sketches on their own on here, so from now on i will use DA mostly for fully rendered/mostly rendered artworks and occasional sketchdumps, but to see all sketches and posts, my instagram (SirLudox ) is the place to go. But i am still active here in the sense that i reply, favorite, comment, etc., but that also brings me to my next point...

2) Eclipse. Am i leaving? Nah. As much as I don't like the new site (especially because of the heavy reference from Artstation), I can understand that they want to add a sleeker, more modern design to the site. But, perhaps next time don't rip off another site's design, huh? Anyways, this is the only place I can upload full resolution artworks (working on making a Tumblr), plus I have so many memories here I could never possibly leave it. Like i said, i will still be active, just not with posting.

3) Why have I been dead and doing literally no rendered artworks? A few reasons, that being a) this being one of my worst years regrading how I see my art and it's value (that being I hate it a lot as well as considering multiple times already to completely drop it), and b) the amount of work I have gotten this year. Last year, I stated that I would most likely be a lot less active with posting art because of the workload, but it caught me off guard at how much it actually was. Everyday, I would start the day at 6am, travel to school for 2 hours, school ending at 4:15pm - 5pm, travel 2+ hours home (busier going back home), get home at around 6pm - 7pm, do homework until around 9pm, be completely and utterly exhausted and struggle to even think nor even work, and end up sitting staring at my wall as if i were a zombie or struggling to draw/play games, then go to sleep at 11pm - 12am.  But, with this quarantine I'm currently in, my days begin at 7am, sit and listen to teachers speaking for 2-4hours straight, spend my breaks doing work, classes end at 3:50pm, I have lunch at 4pm, and spend the rest of the day doing school work, sometimes even till 1am. So you can image, I have no time at all anymore. This is every week day. I am constantly exhausted mentally, and even though I was tired on the days I traveled to school, I could still sneak in a few hours of drawing and playing games to help relax myself, but now I can barely touch either one until Friday night, but if i'm too busy, I only have Saturday, as I always spend Sunday doing work all day. I am so desperate for a break, last Saturday I spent 14 hours straight playing Monster Hunter World (of course with a lunch break at the start), and finally I was able to relax. But, this is only once a week. Still, though, I am extremely sorry for the lack of posts here, and I really hope the workload can start to ease off slightly with the cancellation of mid year exams. I am also currently working on my last commissions from Flight Rising!


Again, sorry for the lack of art! : (

I hope things lighten up soon for you and you can rest properly and get a goods nights rest.


I didn't know that DA was kinda ripping off another sights look but I can believe it since there was some thing going around about when core came out with the bright orange and stuff.

Also its ok about you not posting art here we understand that you have another life that's not online and not always doing art. So its all good! Take all the time you need to finish up what you need to do.

I love your art work and hope that when things calm down for you, you can rest but also do things that you love soon.



Also I really love Yume's look! They just look so great and amazing! Fluffy but also spiky <3

Spiky snoot!

Ahh thank you! And I hope so too.

Yeah it was especially evident when they first released DA Eclipse, as the profile section was nearly the exact same, but they changed it slightly by moving the icon and username to the left instead of centered.
Thank you for being so understanding <'33 it makes me really happy!


Thank you haha! I love it as well so I'm glad others do too!
Spikiest snoot indeed!

He looks great! Yes the spikiest snoot!

Sad to hear about the work you've swamped with lately, I would have hoped schools would be more aware of the exhaustion they cause their students.
I hope you find a good ol' chunk of free time soon Ludox!

Also I'm glad to hear you'll be staying around, it;s sad hearing how many people are leaving the site due to eclipse, but it's always nice to see conformation they''ll be around from your favorite artists. ^^
And I hope you keep at it with the art! Art is something that always turns into a slog for improving in, but it's always worth it when you can see the fruit of labor and hard work. 
That and I also really love seeing your work, it's really good!

About the image itself, it's like every time you draw Yume she looks more sinister than last and it's amazing. 
She has a goblin snoot now. XD

i hoped so too, and some teachers have acknowledged the work load tiring students immensely, but these are only a few, perhaps 10%. So the workload won't ease up anytime soon.

Yeah as much as the new site is going to take a while to understand, I could never up and leave. It's because of DA that i've met such amazing people, including yourself! So leaving it would feel like leaving behind a huge part of me.
I hope so too honestly haha, art is something i define myself as so it's hard to drop it but at the same time sometimes the thought of "You were never meant for art" sticks with me for days or weeks on end so it becomes mighty unbearable.
And thank you so much Shroom, that means the world to me : ( <33


Ah i know right? She's starting to look like a villain but I honestly love it so much
The biggest goblin snoot xD
