I'm making this post as some sort of poll, because I wanna see what my regular fans think about this. Most of time, I like making my projects and offering my help and abilities to other users in the platform, simply 'cause I really like spending time in the site and interacting with everyone, as well as working in what I like most (drawing, programming, making music, and in some contexts, writing), i'm sure many of you can relate to that feeling. However, I'm currently facing situations were I also need to work so I can gather some money to make up for my current situation.

I have already taken many different jobs in last years, some that I like and some that I don't, the problem here is that some of these jobs are unsustainable (some because of the hours and some others because of the pay, and in some cases even both things). Related to those problems, is also the fact that having to give such inhuman amounts of time to working means interacting very lowly with a community I've always loved and really want to keep supporting (and supporting doesn't just mean giving donations, but actually keeping alive, interacting with the ppl in it, and sharing it in other places). This is the reason why I opened a Ko-fi, so ppl can support me with any donation as smol as it can be, because if I can have an income thanks to doing the things I like, I can also keep interacting regularly with all of you, instead of going to work on a place were i'm not allowed to take out my phone. The reason of this post is to see what all of you would like to see from me in the future.

I've been thinking about opening commisions (the reason I never did is because I focus my drawings in a more personal manner), if I did, would you be interested in me making a drawing for you? I've also been thinking about starting to make streams, and the point of those streams would be precisely to work in those drawings (as I said, I have other things to do during the week, so having an specific moment of the week to do that would help me to keep everything organized). I'm also thinking of doing these streams so we can interact more nearly, and maybe even help showcase smaller users who want me to check their profiles and latest works to get any feedback (showcasing is something I always like to do). If I can recive any sort of monetary help from these ideas, and help all of you to grow too, we all win. I understand i'm not the biggest artist either, but i'm sure everyone is open to get any help to grow, as well as I am (reason why i'm making this post).

I have also thought about things like merch or the kind of (in case u want to have a Boxanne keychain or a Kinbari plushie, I dunno :p), but those things would be more in the long term, in case u are really interested, since I still have to look limitations, posibilities and all of that. Let me know what you think about all of this, because I really want to find a way where I can keep my growth and safety balanced, so I can keep making kewl things for all of you.

-With great interest and excitement, Emiliano says good bye

Are ya lost?

Here, have a Kinbari.

Good bye

Omg, so great, I'm so excited!!!

Today is my birthday... except is not my birthday. My birthday is in 63 days counting from today (sink in maths buddy :p)

Ay, so long no see huh! It's been very long since I last published something, like, an hour or something.

Anyway, how have u been, has life been treating u good? I hope so. So far, things have been calm in my life lately, I should be back to school at mid september, so I might share anything else in the meantime. Independence day is also nearby, I probably should do an art for the independence day collab, but I don't feel motivated enough for that, not for anything, i'm just lazy sometimes :p

Ah, also, I reached 202 followers!!! (weee...), this is the best day of my life, i'm crying so much i'm gonna pee myself.

Yee, at this point u might have noticed am way more idiotic than usual (which is unbelievable). In other news, I have something to show u all:

I can't show a lot more without spoiling things, u'll have to wait until I finish (I'm dying of exhaustation). That should be everything, make sure to wash your dishes, u don't want to accidentally eat a squirrel!

Hello, this post is part of a series i'm doing to help NG artists outstand a bit. I'm not scheduling these, so the next entry could be next week or next month, have at you.

Below are 5 artists selected by me, as some of the best artists in this platform, and some of their work so you can criticize them. These 5 are elected for this particular post, not meaning they are the bestest out there (maybe they are tho).

1 - Nebulate: Art Lover

Project submission average: 1 work every 3.02 days

Posts, blogs & reviews average: 3.95 posts per day

The bestest soap eater artist around.

@Nebulate might not have an astonishing art style, but his art evokes strong positive energy, which sometimes is better than everything else. Not only that, but I feel that the simplicity in his art makes for a satisfying portfolio of art which althought colorful, never tires out the eye.

He's also shown to be very interactive and open to the community, whether it'd be for a major project, a collab, or just an activity to connect with others, which means he's not only a nice artist, but also a nice person in general.

2 - VegaSlash: Art Lover

Project submission average: 1 work every 15.23 days

Posts, blogs & reviews average: 0.12 posts per day

He looks explendid today, just like you!

Showcasing a wide variety of colorful artstyles, @VegaSlash art shouts out energy and satisfaction through all winds. If you take a look to his art thumbnail, you'll notice styles changing constantly while keeping small hints of connection, meaning he's constantly experimenting different styles, and you won't know what to expect next from him, aside from good quality of course.

He has also made some nice animations which, though don't show complex animation skills, are short and fun to look at. In general, the quality of his work is worth enough to at least give him a follow, and also worth mentioning he accepts commissions currently, so consider supporting him.

3 - OnyxGalaria: Art Lover

Project submission average: 1 work every 3.41 days

Posts, blogs & reviews average: 0.26 posts per day

Your exceptional artist and local trustworthy NPC!

Prepare yourself for a explosion of color and energy, for @OnyxGalaria is delivering some cool art you might want to take a look at. The quality format of the art is incredibly appealing for the eyes, and is also entertaining to look at these pics as it appears there's always many things to look at, even if they're quite simple.

His style might be quite settled in one place, but every once in a while you see a bit of variety, a weird experiment or simply something unusual to break the silence, which is always a welcome to avoid boredom. Worth noting he also has two nice og music tracks and a funny animation to look at.

4 - TheShokBlok: Art Lover

Project submission average: 1 work every 4.66 days

Posts, blogs & reviews average: 3.5 posts per day

hehe, funny ah blok

The art you can find from the mind of this user can go from "kewl pics dud" to "dfcxkj2w31qshb" (yee, you can pronounce that). Being objective, the things you can expect from @TheShokBlok are never entirely clear, what's sure however is they're gonna be either cool, satisfying or fun to look at.

You can almost expect the same from their posts. It's worth noting @TheShokBlok has also made other cool things, participated with other users and is in general a great person to take in consideration when searching for kewl and fun art.

5 - Creeperforce24: Musician

Project submission average: 1 work every 3.15 days

Posts, blogs & reviews average: 4.52 posts per day

Definitely not a dumbfuck musician

With a very funny style of music and some unusual ideas, @Creeperforce24 is a user who has already been around since a long time, and has shared many submissions full of fun ideas.

His most frequent works are music related, and sometimes, art related. However, he has worked in other projects like the Who's That Pokemeat? Collab, and has shown an absolute disposition to be present for any need or interest for people's ongoing projects. He's also very active in the community, so you're very likely gonna cross with him sooner than later.

ERROR #1413Z: This post has encountered an end.

Thanks for spending your time reading this post, and if you know any artist you think deserves more recognizement, let me know in comments, so I consider them for future posts (you can even recommend yourself, and i'll make sure to visit your profile whenever I have time). Also remember, i'm not a critic, and this post is made for both fun and for giving visibility to other artists.

Have a happy week, Emiliano dies!

Well, can you see that?

I reached 200 followers. A few years more and I should become a world icon. In the meantime, thanks y'all for your support, wonder what this Ems will deliver in the upcoming times

In case ur interested in my current situation, here's a smol update of what's going on with my works.

Lately, I've been very busy with school and work, and things of the sort. Due to all the situations I've had to face, I haven't been online as much as i'd like, not only in NG, but also in other places I like to frequent. The rest of time I've had available, I've spent it in programming a game I hope you all will be able to play before september 20th. Making that game has required a lot of investigation, studying, programming, erasing, and at some level, sacrifice. I'm not revealing anything besides of that, I want it to be a surprise for y'all.

Upcoming collab?

As stated before, I've been pretty busy with some real life issues I've had to deal with, and as a result, I haven't been able to work as much as i'd love. One of these project ideas that had to be delayed is a possible collab. After the success of the Earth Day Collab, I've been very interested in making another funny event that can gather talent of many types, but this time, trying not to limit things to art only. If things seem to accommodate for me, that collab might be a possibility until September or October, but only time will say.

Boxanne... 2?

Not a possibility until 2025 sadly. As some of you might already know, there was another Boxanne game in development (which was kind of an spin-off), but had to be delayed indefinitely due to the already mentioned issues.

Funny comics coming

Between the occasional pics I share in the Art Portal, I'm planning on submitting more comics. Some in the monochromatic style you've already seen, and maybe one with actual colors.

That's all that mostly. I know everything seems a bit complicated, but I can't do much more about my current situations right now. The rest of the projects I have had to be put in stop at the moment so I can focus in the few most important while I also focus in the boring problems. Anyway, see ya around :))

-Emiliano

After a busy day of disgraces, I entered NG to find out that @rosarjc made a beautiful banner inspired in me. More precisely, the one you see below:

I just changed the banner of my account for this one (I already had a more simplistic one, but this one is so beautiful to not show it off). There you can see Boxanne, Nora and Kinbari, as well as good ol' Ems, and some sick drawing techniques and elements all around the place. I can't help but feel flattered, thanks a lot rosarjc!!

After like 1 & 1/2 year, I decided to do exercise again to keep healthy. I lost condition, all my body hurts

I don't need much to be happy. Happy evening ;3
