Innovation and Stability; The SOJITZL 2024 Retrospective
HELLO~ EVERYBODY IT'S ME AGAIN!
Man . . . What a year huh? Alot has happened, so much so that alot of the parts do tend to become a bit of a blur, so I have to struggle a bit myself at 2:22 AM writing this just to piece together a proper retrospective. For this post I will be hitting you with as many summaries and updates as concisely as I possibly can! And if I forget anything: I am sorry. It's New Years Day, which means the big 1/1 once again. 2024 is over, now it's time for 2025, and whatever... may happen for the next 365 days. ANYTHING can happen! Trans Rights, Aliens, Robots I can have sex with, I BUILD A COMPUTER MAYBE. Imagine that... a whole gaming pc, a legit one that lets me play videogames modded to have vore content in them... Imagine that.
NEW YEARS RESOLUTIONS
"Kevin! What the fuck?! Why is the Cobalion Month 2024 Finale not an animation like last time?! Why is it just a sick phone wallpaper?" you ask, mouth agape and spewing out fireballs that zing and zag around the room, killing a nearby mailman in the crossfire. Well that's quite simple: I HAVE OBLIGATIONS (and I'm tired). I don't know if you've noticed, but I moved. Hell that's where this update format comes from- I moved out of California back in October of '24 to the Midwest! I have 3 roommates and I need to be financially responsible! So while I've been trying to get a local job, I've also been working on you guessed it, COMMISSIONS since the move drive began and ended with only a couple weeks as breaks. Starting...~tomorrow esque I'll be working on more commissions again, and trying to keep a rhythm of just one piece a day. That way I can keep myself able to still do personal projects or even just a second commission if I-holy shit did you see that the text from earlier was like, italicized and everything that's crazy what the fuck... Like,,, whoa dude that was scary, I was trying to keep it cool but like YOU saw that, right?... holy shit- anyway- 1 comm a day, 2 if I'm feeling up for it. That's my new daily routine HOPEFULLY which technically means also comms are still open just... talk to me on discord. Please oh please just ping me on discord my organization is kinda sorta bad when it comes to comms and I deadass HAVE lost people before. This is certain. That's why I have a PAY AFTER type of Terms of Service. As for any other New Years Resolution...
I want to get into other mediums!
It's a new year, with new ideas, potentials, possibilities, pastabilities, NEW CONTENT and shit and I want to like, do more... for fucksake all I have is DRAWPILE I can't use Aseprite because it's not windows ink compatible-- So I had this plan where I would take up video edition from a friend. You'll know how that goes eventually, it probably won't be for a couple weeks who knows maybe I'll get *too good* at it and you'll see me once a week or two- Scary! But I also want to do more DND content, Art for my projects, 3D modelling, music, the whole 9 yards. Fuck I want to like, animate a belly with loud sound effects styled to look like a videogame battle sequence or something. PORN man, PORN!
Speaking of Commissions...
I will be making a new price sheet soon, one that isn't for y'know. The move drive. Instead it will just be my regular prices with very few FEW changes. One last raise *for now* on sketches to make them more feasible for my obligations (still gonna get 2 for the price of one dw). The biggest change being that I will now be charging a Privacy Fee yes a Privacy Fee. That will mean that if you want a picture from me PRIVATE between us, I will charge you (idk like 20%) a small fee on the side because as an artist I am EXTREMELY passionate about my craft. When I make shit I try to put my all into it every single time, and my perfectionism often leads to me taking upwards 2-5+ hours. And with that said, today's "digital ink of virtual gold" masterpiece is something I desperately want to show EVERYONE and if I can't do that I start biting myself in anger. So a reasonable privacy fee will be introduced so I at least feel less upset about NEVER BEING ABLE TO SHOW IT TO ANYONE </3 it's heartbreaking I tells ya. I practically NEED you to see this sick vore picture I drew!- as for other price raises... no probably just Sketches, a new fee, and more TOS stuff. I need to make it ABUNDANTLY CLEAR not to pay me before I get to work on people's art.
Midwest Fur Fuckery
I did not attend MFF 2024... I was tired and somewhat too poor to, It was literally the moment after I moved here give me a break. BUT Will I attend other furry conventions upcoming this 2025? Hell yeah, I want to see people in person, make myself a cool badge to wear, take photos, --get eaten--, buy cool merch and whatnot. I heard there were like, vore parties! Those sound fun, I could show up, be an idiot, then leave upset I'm such an IDIOT. I was already in shock when my roommate told me since I now live in like, the furry focal point of america I would be recognized more and that fucked me UP INSTANTLY. Like, yeah! People are gonna see me in person, what am I gonna do?! Probably be really shy and awkward unless I'm shooting the shit with someone BUT HEY if you ever attend a con I'm attending I will ABSOLUTELY let you guys know what I'm wearing! Maybe I'll even make like, a collectable SOJITZL printable thing for you to keep! I don't know!
Project Michael (etc.)
Progress has been... slow, but that's not BAD because at least there IS progress. Trust me, I'm ITCHING to work on it every day I WANT TO WORK ON MY FREAKING GAME. So that's all the update on that but what about the etc part in that title? Well, I have a DND campaign I'm working on using a homebrew system me and my cocreator friend call "Dawn of The Navigators" (.nav) As expected from how I abbreviated it, this is a Megaman BN/SF inspired cybertech themed campaign. There will be EVERYTHING- so EVERYTHING-that I'm just gonna straight up innovate the shit out of my campaign. I just need to work on writing for DND campaigns, which is hard, and of course... art. The biggest hurdle is the Card System right now as I need to make 107* cards to start out the debut series. Cards of which I have designed a UI around to be as informal to the player as possible. The system in turn should be ready for PVP and PVE the moment all 100 are finished! . . . I wish (hint hint) there were people willing to help me out with the card art! ...and lastly- IS NOM THE ISLAND OF SOJ' DEAD? . . . I mean, relatively speaking, yeah. There hasn't really been anything since 2021esque for it besides a revamped map and experimental card UI. I don't feel motivated to work on it (right now) but idk maybe someday I'll get so fucking invigorated for it that I'll full on recreate NOM:TIOS again (sorry TIOS fan)
Closing Remarks
This year has been a long one. Ups, Downs, alot of Downs, holy shit I contemplated suicide on SEVERAL occassions recently kind of Downs (of which I talked myself out of because me killing myself would hurt SO MANY PEOPLE I care about right now, they won't get life insurance money from me, I'd just be causing misery and that's just... fucked dude I can't die right now. I JUST got to kiss my boyfriend again and spend Thanksgiving at his house it was lovely SUICIDE is SO OFF THE TABLE. So much has happened, in such a brief 2 months, too, holy shit- I'm fuckin' EEPY my guy that shit took me OUT so fucking fast. I need to buy one of those laptop lifted platform fans so my tablet doesn't overheat as much. Maybe then I can draw with better posture. Some of you know I shrimp outwrite DIABOLICALLY over here. Cobalion month was murder on my back with how I double dipped into comm work so much. Remember guys, take self care breaks once every couple of days at least. Make sure you LIVE... but yeah, 2024 is over, now it's year of the snake! I hope to see lots of snake vore, unique scenarios, things not done so blandly and people thinking things like "snake giving a blowjob to their prey after eating them" that sounds crazy how would that work? (cobalion month 2024 [30] btw- it would be like that) I don't know how to end this formally because it's 3am and I'm eepy and gotta shit real bad (I got sick off of Wendy's spicy chicken nuggets) and rest is good for you and I wanna sleep after some good porn so I'm on the prowl- so uh
AAGH-- okay see you later kthxbai--
