Gotta start off with a slightly overdue HAPPY 30th ANNIVERSARY NEWGROUNGS!! * * \(^o^)/ * *
Absolutely incredible to think this site has been around for that long. Certainly longer than any other of the social media or art-related websites I've used over the years.
I've sadly only been on NG for almost a year now, but the legacy of this site has echoed throughout my life. A FancyPants Easter Egg in an Armor Games Flash Game I loved when I was in Grade School. Sitting down and watching Salad Fingers with no context in High School with a friend who was a fan of the series. Eventually leading me down the rabbit hole of fantastic Indie development that is great Games, Great Series and Fantastic Music!
That's a dang legacy if I've ever seen one. Cannot wait to celebrate the next big milestone a decade from now. Here's to you, NG!
In honor of the occasion, I hosted an art exhibition themed around remastering well-known NG series through old masters' works. You can find the whole collection here on NG, and get a copy of the catalogue for FREE over on my Ko-Fi! :D

There were also some absolutely INCREDIBLE Collabs, projects and artworks released on the day, a few of my absolutely favs featured at the bottom of this entry ^o^ Check em out!
Before I disappear until next month's update (probably discussing Robot and Madness Day prep XD), some general updates from my side.
Finally moved. Gods, it was...a lot XD Two weeks of calling my service provider everyday and being told 'No, No, No, We'll sort it out'. Trying to get my pay to buy groceries and being told it was delayed due to holidays. 'No, No, No, It's on the way'. And trying to get my desk delivered 'No, No, N-You get the point x_x
I am exhausted and hoping I can eventually take a break...maybe in December XD Just hoping I can get to work on a few of the traditional art projects I had to shelve due to not having access to my supplies. I should be able to start work on some sculptures and cross stitch towards the end of the month, so will hopefully have some WIP shots to share soon ^-^
Have a great day, Everyone! :D More arties to come...eventually XD
Some Fav Works from NG's 30th Anniversary Celebrations :D
