Well... here he is. After throwing away a sculpture of him I was working on when he passed, starting a new one a year later, and working on it intermittently between not being able to even look at it for weeks or months... he's done.
Alongside the sculpture is a pic of really old fanart, plus some stickers I found at work the day he passed. Funny seeing how far I've come with my art. Even just through making the sculpture, there are these giant gaps in skill all over it. I got so much better at sculpting throughout this process that you can see which are the older pieces, just due to the quality being worse lol. In a way, that just makes me so much prouder of it. It's the first polymer clay sculpture I've ever finished, and the third I've ever attempted. There's a lot wrong with the sculpture, but I'm happy.
Other than that, I can't thank Techno enough for being a funny guy on the internet who made some of my worst days a little easier. I would never want some new person to replace you, because you made me realise just how great it was that there could only ever be one you, and made me think that maybe it's a good thing that I am the person that I am.
