2016 Summary Of Art

Description

I love making these every year. Something so exciting about seeing progression right there in front of you. 

2016 has been a fantastic year for me, both personally and art-wise. I feel like I've made some of my absolute best work this year, far beyond what I've previously been capable of. Glad to see far less ponies from a progression standpoint too. Hoping next year will have some fursuit work and more complex projects :). I've gotten far more confident with anthros (and actually prefer them now). 

This year I've: 
- Paid off my new embroidery machine (that has allowed me to take on and speed up larger projects)
- Gained confidence in anthro patterning
- Learnt a tonne about making and patterning clothes
- Moved to a larger rental
- Went overseas for the first time 
- Started my patreon (I think this year?) 
- Learnt a lot about asking for and embracing criticism on my work (usually via patreon). I've really come to know the value of other people's input, and how allowing (and wanting) critique to be a part of my workflow has really improved and pushed my final work. Trying more and more to allow other's input to help me, rather than hinder me. I really can't thank my Patrons (and my art friend's) enough for all the help they have given me this year. 
- Learnt that remaking and putting more time into pieces can really be worth it, even if it hurts to chuck away previous work. 
- Gained confidence in talking to a microphone/recording tutorial videos

For 2017 I'd like to: 

- Start fursuit making. Make partials to start with
- Learn more about molding and casting
- Make an art doll
- Sculpt, mold and cast my own fursuit blank/s (ragdoll cat for starters)
- Continue to push pattern making and plush techniques 
- Make more unique anthro plush more sexy anthros plz
- Start using more faux fur in plush (shudders)
- At least start my Ratchet fursuit/cosplay
- Make a raichu plush I actually like
- Redesign Cobalt to be an updated fursona
