It’s underway folks! The book of 2024 has begun on the stream and we’re five pages in and I’m feeling great! Outside of a couple of other projects on stream like making hats and of course Tales from the Got Damn, we’re powering through the start of the year.
This year needs to be super productive. I have to get things in place for trying to drive some extra revenue through, more products, prints, affiliate stuff where I can find it. Who knows maybe even a sponsor?! Am I setting my sights too high here?
Anyway, please find below the first five drawings from The Book of 2024!
I’ve also included a YouTube short showing some extra detail with a grungy look and sexy voice over by yours truly. OK now I’m overshooting. I’ll stop.
Notebook Anxiety?
I’m really enjoying working in a nice fresh new notebook, again it’s a pocket sized plain Moleskine notebook and I’m using the Tombow Fudenosuke brush pens. I’m really trying to get over my anxiety around starting new sketch and note books.
I have this thing, that I’ve found talking with you on stream a lot of us have, where I just get intense anxiety with working in a new sketch book or writing in a new note book. Especially when they look and feel so nice. The nicer the book the worse I feel about doing anything in it because I figure that anything I put in there is just going to ruin how nice it looks clean and fresh. It’s a real thing.
I’ve quite often bought a really nice new note book with the plan of using it to either write ideas for projects, or keep notes on Toehider things we want to do and after only writing a few pages decide that either my writing looks shit, or I get slack and stop keeping notes, and then the whole book is ruined because I messed up the first few pages.
Are you afflicted with this condition? Does it have a name?
Anyway, come hang out on the Twitch stream, I’ll be drawing more this year and also branching out into some sewing projects (have already made two hats, I’ll write about that soon) and definitely getting more Tales from the Got Damn episodes pumped out for all your yucks and chuckles!
Want to see the book I filled last year? Head over to this post!
