So a bit of a life update/status update on what's going on. Firstly, thank you all for both being so patient with me and as understanding as you are! You guys are awesome as hell and I really am lucky and happy to have such a dope community of support. Secondly, I apologize for my absence and my silence on the situation(s), there's been quite a LOT happening. My father died, and that was a whole complicated mess I am still dealing with. I got a new little kitten! My brother's gf rescued him and they couldn't keep him. Might post pics of him. The harddrive was ALMOST a failure, but after a few more dollars (ouch) and a bit of patience, the harddrive tech was able to restore 98.5% of my data, so I am back in the game. Just gotta finish paying him for his services this weekend and all will be right with the world again. Lastly, once I get myself readjusted and after a slew of commissions, I plan on a bit of a content format switch. I'll still do loops, but I'd like to do longer, more detailed and expressive scenes. My biggest thing was not having VAs, but I think at this point I can do well enough without them or REALLY hunt some down that I like. Anyway, thank you for taking the time to hear me out on this and for keeping with me. Again you guys rock!!
