Everything I draw ends up wearing a bow-tie

okay but why don’t they have car alarms where it’s like the car screaming for help because it’s being kidnapped I mean I don’t know about you but I’d

a) be more inclined to go help the car out if I heard that instead of a diggity danged WEEA WEEA WEEA at 5am and

b) be too guilt stricken to steal a car that was crying for its mother

c) like eventually it just stops shouting and starts talking to the driver like “So… are you my new dad? Are you going to be nice to me? Please don’t burn me out and leave me on the side of the road I had a nightmare about that and my last dad said it would never ever happen but I guess you’re new so that might not be true any more, huh…”

ACNL dorkage feel free to ignore by hitting J

So ACNL continues to be true to real life with the weather

and I continue to be the best mayor and not a failure or embarrassment to anyone particularly not myself shut up I did that on purpose

anyway so I decided to go see Isabelle and ask what’s up and oh

oh no that’s too cute

(note at this point I was genuinely bawwing)

I mean I can fit one in my pocket just so you know

anyway I eventually woke her up and

next ordinance to be passed; all work places to be equipped with sleeping bags and hot chocolate machines

Whoa there friend did I hear you say your shouldn’t try? More to the point, that you shouldn’t try because you aren’t so good at digital? Did I?

Well now I’m not saying you shouldn’t try to practice and improve at digital drawing because yes, that comes into it and it’s a jolly good thing to learn about in the long run anyway, but have a whip round look at my ‘professional’ work environment right here up in the spare bedroom-

Observe the high quality very expensive recycled print paper and pencil I use for the base sketches, very high end and completely one hundred percent electronic free. Tailor made leaning construct formed out of my own sketchbook and a cushion, classy as hell…

That doohickey over there (I believe it’s called a cintiq and the program I use for boarding is called SketchbookPro) well that sure is electronic as heck but gosh digity it’s ever so like drawing on a piece of paper too and my job helped me pay for it because it means I sit up properly and it doesn’t hurt my hand as much as a regular tablet and you know that really is very nice and professional of the people who hire me to consider my health and such like most of these places do because that means you can draw better and for longer so they get more out of you for their money’s worth I mean because they love you.

-and those over there are my canvases because heck like I’ve given up splattering things with paint after learning to do things on a bleepity blooper doodad magee.

So yes, clearly because storyboarding these days does include a lot of digital work it is absolutely nothing like traditional work and certainly doesn’t feed off it directly and you should definitely give up your dreams and not climb that mountain to punch that rainbow in the face and make the world laugh and cry because it is your dream to do that until you die and nothing in this known universe is more wonderful and brave and kind as trying to do that despite how impossible it can appear to be on the surface oh whoops pardon me was that my scarcasm gland kicking into gear it’s a condition I’m British.

DRAW, DRAW AND KEEP DRAWING. THAT IS HOW I ENDED UP IN THE SORT OF JOB I DID, I LITERALLY DO NOT KNOW WHAT ELSE TO TELL YOU. Okay now go make magic xxx love you
