He died too early, man.
Like a lot of people, Dragon Ball was part of the reason I grew up loving anime. My cousins would record Toonami aired episodes on VHS and I watched the show with them. I also bought a copy of Chrono Trigger years ago, but haven't got around to it yet.

Might be a good time to start. I know it wasn't all Toriyama's singular vision, but there's a depth and breadth to the art and subject matter that I think makes it the single best showcase of what the man was capable of designing.
Might be pretty sad to play in this context, though. There's a reason my mind calculated "Toriyama + Feelings of Loss = Chrono Trigger" when deciding what my tribute piece would be.
Doing outfit challenges for a Discord server; just sketches since I started late in the month and just did a handful.
Don't usually do traditional, but I want to do it more because of how much more careful I have to be. Seems like something that could eventually speed me up overall.

It's a proper meal!
NGL I'm finding dailies to be pretty tiring and not really a good showcase of what I'm able to do. It's good as an endurance test but I think I'm gonna only do 15 prompt monthly challenges from now on since I'm finding I need at least two days to put out something of semi-consistent quality.

It's sloppy, it just didn't come together the way I wanted it to, and I'm getting a little fatigued by needing to post these every day. Thinking about calling it quits before the month is up if I keep disappointing myself.
I think I'm kinda done with these at this point. I'm not really enjoying it, I'm flooding my profile with stuff that I don't love, I'm working too hard just to stagnate, response to most of it across all my platforms has been lukewarm at best, so I'm not gonna do daily challenges anymore. At least not for a very long time when I'm more comfortable making things quickly and if people care more to see me shit out things that aren't my best.
It's hard enough to scrape a following together when I'm giving it 100%, but it's clear that anything less than that is just setting me back. It's such a contrast to last year where I made less stuff over a longer time period and got way more return on investment. I'm not physically or mentally burnt out, I'm just frustrated and not having fun. I'm gonna go back to not being frustrated and not not having fun.
