I am trully sry for every friend, artist or follower who has missed me here and for all
customers which are still waiting for their commissions. To tell you the whole story short
I was very uncreative at that time. Nothing was right or good looking to me and I wanted to give you the best - in cosplay and art.
Nowadays I have seen much more in this world, got better equipment and I did a lot of gym and fitness to feel
myself more healthier and better. :)

Sometimes we just need some time to recover or to overthink ourselves. It helped me a lot and so...I am back!
More inspired and creative than I was before. :heart:

So I hope you still remember me. ~

I got a question from many followers which are interested in one question

"Have you ever felt to be not good enough with your Art and Cosplay work? How do you deal with that?"

I will do my best to explain my opinion about this even with my crap English. (Hope you don´t mind)
It´s a shame when I hear people telling me that they stopped with their drawings because others said they sucked or aren´t good at this. A lot of potential creativity is lost.
We all started small and it´s not always easy to reach the goal we wanted but we should NEVER stop if we love what we re doing. NEVER. I got a lot of crap comments on my very first drawing I ever posted
to the web but I´ve learnt to gain "constructive" criticism instead. Telling the artist what exactly could be better is much nicer than just saying "Bullsh**" to a drawing. You never know how many hours this person spent
in this art even if she / he isn´t good in someones opinion. They start learning and to collect helpful tips to improve with this step.

Not even in my art I felt like to be not good enough sometimes I also had this situation often in cosplay. My biggest problem was to compare myself with professional cosplayers. I start giving up because I thought something like "I never will reach this level" but that´s not true! I was weak at this moment....too fast because I just start with cosplay and I planned some really big things I couldn´t do yet and I even start collecting many bad thoughts to myself. Everything was so wrong! I did my Tifa cosplay, maybe not the best at the beginning but I´m trying it again with a lot of improvements thanks to all followers which telling me their opinions in a respectful and nice way. Thank you, I´m serious! ~

I´ll give you some motivation by telling how I did. If Art or Cosplay - it doesn´t matter - collect your old stuff. You will see after some years how much you improved and you will be proud seeing this on a wall. (for example)
Also do not compare yourself with others. They also start from the beginning like you, maybe faster, maybe slower - who knows but you shouldn´t care because you work and learn for yourself. If you accept this fact then you can finally be inspired by others work and grow. Asking other artists how they work and maybe find ways for the own workactions. The best is always to try on your own. Do not just watch, take your pencil and try as much as you can to be satisfied!

So I tell you once again - trust yourself and your feelings. If you love the art you do then you should keep trying it.
Let´s be creative!
