It's been a while since I posted!  I haven't been taking photos of my regular coordinates when I go out.  Recently I went to eat with my friend a few times, and remembered to take a photo one time only haha!

 The blouse is new :3  It's my first time getting a blouse with this style of sleeves and I think it ended up looking nice! I also got it in black.

I think this outfit is a good example of my daily Lolita outfits.  It's quite simple and easy to wear (the back is fully shirred) and comfortable.  The dress is from a BTSSB happy pack!  It's got little bunnies on it :3

Recent 3D artwork

I'm still practicing my 3D art and following tutorials online.  Sometimes I follow them exactly, and sometimes I blend tutorials together to create something new.  So I thought I would share some of these projects with you all!

First up is a boba tea I made.  The tea doesn't have much texture in it, and I think in the future I would add a texture to it if I want to use it for anything.

Life Update

 

Have a picture of Sumikko Gurashi display on the river to brighten the mood!  I took these photos a few days ago.

The last few months have been busy and not too great, and unfortunately it has gotten worse.  Though I am keeping myself positive as much as possible, it can get difficult sometimes.

Need to believe that things will work out for the better.  Today was supposed to be the day that the apartment negotiation was resolved (dissolve the contract) but the seller refused to accept either dissolving contract and paying the scrivener and 3rd part (holding my down payment) fees (our original request) OR the dissolving of contract and each paying our own fees (as detailed in the contract originally) and is now taking me to court to try and get me to pay an additional NT$150k (roughly 4.5 months' average salary in my city) for "compensation" to him due to changing a water pipe in the laundry room.  It is still a functioning pipe and would not make the property unsellable to the next buyer, so that seems unreasonable to me.

Today is Taiwan Teddy's birthday, and almost the new year, so I'd really been hoping it would end nicely today.  It's bad luck to carry on to the next year, but maybe this means that next year can only get better.

Wishing everybody a lovely end of the year and may you all be blessed in the coming year!!

Excuse the crazy face :D I had been practicing eyeliner to try and make my round eyes look longer.  I had not even been planning on going outdoors but there was a Christmas Glaceon at a nearby gym so I went to go get it (failed as I was alone, but got very close!)

During my time away from blogging, I have been working on making more cards and also doing 3D digital art as well as streaming on Twitch, so that has been quite fun!  I will be taking a break from Twitch until things are better for me though.

Here's a closing photo of Violet in her birthday outfit!  After the failed negotiation I was so distracted I forgot to buy a cake for her >_<;; So I will need to make it up for her soon!

Here is also a picture of the model I'm working on.  I've replaced the eyeballs, hair, ears, and lashes with more realistic textures, which means I'm fast approaching uncanny valley if I don't balance the "cartoon" features and "realistic" features correctly!

Thank you for reading!  If you would like, please leave me a comment about something good that has happened to you or that you have done recently?  I'm most pleased with progress I've made in the texturing of the model.  I learned a lot about hair cards and using nodes in the material shader editor!
