Putting the last touches on it tomorrow, and then Sketchbook Journey. III will finally be ready for posting! I apologize for the 2 week delay on the release, but I'd rather delay it and make something that is worth your time, instead of releasing a half-finished product



Oh, and I may have cheated a little bit on the first build for July, because I'll be away the first 2 weeks of July, so! Here is a little sneak peek at my next build (available on 7th of July)

Noticed that the program I want to use for drawing in the future is 60% off, downloaded, tried to install, only to realize that my macbook hasn't been updated since I got it in 2017

Updated, everything works now! No idea how Clip Studio Paint functions, what features it has, or what to do with it atm... But I have it :D

Exams are finally over!
I can feel all the pressure slowly leaving my body. Came home after defending my research paper, laid on my couch and slept for 4 hours (I did not get much drawing done today).

Going to take a break, then come back and start putting the last touches on Sketchbook Journey. III + will slowly begin preparing the 10 planned builds for July and August


(also got an A+ on my research paper, very proud of myself for that one)

Good news!
I will be done writing and putting together Sketchbook Journey. III by sunday next week (23 June). So here is a little sneak peek showing one of my favorite drawings from this third entry in the series :D

Update on Sketchbook Journey. III:
Sketchbook Journey III is delayed by 2 weeks so I can focus on my last exam and start writing. The third sketchbook is almost done, as I am only a day behind. Expect the entry in 2-3 weeks after exams. Thanks for your patience!

Update on upcoming builds:
Thanks for your suggestions on my last forum post! I've gathered great reference photos and will be posting new builds every weekend from 7th July to 1st September. This is a challenge inspired by the recent PlanetMinecraft analytics update, showing high demand for my industrial builds, so I'll be adding 10 more of those. Hope you'll enjoy!

Me after completing a 30 page research paper in 2 weeks, realizing I have another 2 week 15 page exam with an defense to follow



(im going insane, i just want to draw and play minecraft at this point)

Finally got around to reading eagoy's new blog: Sketch-journey I : 40 days of sketching

If you need some amazing Saturday reading (and art inspiration), I can't recommend their blog enough! And even if you don't need something to read, go give the blog some love as there's been put a large amount of effort into it! That I can vouch for.

If I had to give praise to macbooks, I would point out that my own 7 year old macbook is still running quite fast and smooth with only minor hick-ups every now and then.

Then there's my stationary PC. Guess who just spent a full hour trying to open Minecraft :'D

This is actually super helpful (and interesting!) – Ignoring the top submission (since its the newest one), I'm actually surprised to see that a build I made 2 years ago, is still amoungst my top performing, even though I haven't updated it.

It seems that the content that the most amount of people favor on my profile is the smaller industrial stuff. This actually gives quite a relief, because I remember one of my main reasons for quitting building, was that nagging feeling of "I need to go bigger and better!" – but now I see, that I may instead need to develop and expand upon the industrial style :D



Though, my main goal is still to draw, so builds will still be a rarity on my profile haha :P
