Well, 2017 has been a rocky one so far. Over a few short months I have been quite literally hands-on performing an autopsy on our pet horse (my first and hopefully only time), seen the last of my side of the family leave town, started psychoactive drugs for paralysing nerve pain that I then found was being caused by (only) an abscessed wisdom tooth for the last 9 months, been in a car crash that ended in a write-off for our car and nearly a fight in the street in front of my family, and been in the thick of it for a very, very public emergency at work while my boss has been talking since February about disestablishing my job. And that’s only the highlights.
So I’m making pictures of cartoon dragons and having a damn good time doing it.
Picture is courtesy of my 7yo’s artistry (the one on the left hand side). Yes, my 3d rendering and design is laughable from a technical pov, but I have only been learning Blender for a couple of weeks. And I’m happy to post this embarrassing pic because at this stage of “the curse of 2017” I just don’t care anymore. As I tell my daughter, “no you’re not bad at this, you’re just a beginner”.
