Hello there!

So I haven't posted an update or art for a while. I'm sorry about that.

Life stuff:

Works been a bit busy these months, random bs requests that can't be done in 1-2 days and people expect the results yesterday. Don't know if I mentioned, but my new job is a school technician. I'm not the IT guy here, just if the main dude is not present. Which is all day since the guy can reach everything remotely and also a teacher. Some stuff happened so all network and tech building stuff is really needed. It's a long and annoying story so I spare you people from the details. I'm still living with my partner at their place and mostly I'm bringing home money. Job market is bad and also having chronic depression is not helping. Still I help as much as I can.

Art/Creative stuff:

Let me start with ADHD is a bastard... Trying to get more focused on my creative stuff, but it's really hard and annoying. I managed to work on some stuff slowly and at least sketch in my sketchbook at least 1-2 daily. I can relate all the adhd memes that are out there...and turns out my partner might have it as well. My brain allowed to notice the signs. In short trying to keep up and finish up some art pieces, since I got commission to do for my best bud.

Oh yeah and I got older... \o/

That's all that currently in my mind/what happened. Don't mention the other stuff I already did. Still do 3D, upgrading my video editing knowledge and updating my pngtuber project.

Until then,

See y'all

Hello there!

Summer has started so stuff at my workplace is kinda slow and chill. So I have more time for art as much as I can convince my chaotic brain (adhd).

I have a lot of projects started. Old character redesigns, pose practices, learning new techniques and commission.

There where some chaos getting to know when I get on vacation on my workplace, so no plans what to do yet. Getting "kinda" stable financially thanks to my new job, where people at least friendly and don't talk behind my back.

This was kinda a short update, until then!

Take care.

Hello There!

So another month passed and there are news.

Life stuff - So this week (04.17.) I went for an interview as a technician and I already got the job.

My colleague from my old job recommended me and they really like my Resume, so they mostly needed my approval.

So at least my finance problems kinda solved :D I hope it's won't be bs in the end.

Art stuff - I was looking around and found some sketches about Ideas I had long ago..but forgot them.

Thinking through it was a time, when my life was a bit...unpleasant and toxic.

So there are projects I salvaged from these old sketches and I'll mostly work on those.

( the "Ritualist" is one of them )

Also planning to do some 3D projects in the future.

Until next time!

Hello There!

New update already..so this month is not really fun for me currently.

My Steam and Twitter (X) account got hacked. The good thing I was able to save my steam

(even though my friends list got wiped).

The bad thing is because I didn't seen anything unsusual with my Twitter account..it got suspended

and I might not be able to recover it. I wrote for the support, but don't think it will help much.

I changed a lot of the passwords I have on my accounts so..preparing for the worst.

I wasn't posting much on Twitter, but I had it since 2016 and followed a lot of people on that.

On the art front, I work on some stuff, commission and other projects.

I'll Post them soon as I finished some of them.

It's a short and quick update of the current situation.

Until next time!

Hello there!

Update time!

I know it's kinda random when I do these monthly.

As the title say I'm still searching for a job. People don't respond or just deny me after an interview.

It's not that I'm rude or anything. I say my part and that's it, of course answer a few questions.

Made some changes with my workflow artwise. Trying to "get shit together" and focusing on my art.

Currently focusing on a bit to much at the same time, so that slows me down aswell :D

Family is currently too eager to take my time up with their stuff...which is a bit annoying.

This one is a bit brief and short sorry about that.

Until next time!

Well Hello there!

Update post after a few month's. Had nothing new to share since I'm still trying to get a job.

So far that didn't go well...I try everything I can to leave a good expression and end up failing.

Family not making stuff easier even now that I'm not there for more than a year now.

So art update so made some sketches during this time, but rarely share does (or worth..)

After the holidays I'm started to collect my thoughts a bit about what to do this year.

Started learning coding...from the very basics before confusing myself more.

( Dyscalculia...it the one with numbers not words )

I have a bigger project I started working on around November, but that will take some time before announcing anything.

The monthly drawing thing kinda fell apart with trying to do Inktober which kek didn't worked and did something else.

Still I try to do the at least 1-2 drawing a month thing this year.

I'm still open for any questions.

Well until next time! Take care!

Hey there!

So I didn't do a update last month, because welp I had nothing extra to write and was kinda busy.

Now I have some good and bad news. I was experimenting with some stuff as usual (shading, lineart etc.)

I'm slowly figuring out the way I want to do art and stuff, but still there is a way to improve.

That was kinda the good news...

The bad is I just got fired from my day job, because being an IT/Graphic designer/video editor/Camera guy

is not an 8 hours job according to my boss. I'm not salty, just worry a bit since I was the only one who provided

money for food and rent at home. As I mentioned I was able to move out with my partner from my toxic parents,

but they also lost their job. Currently waiting to get my papers to be able to apply to other jobs.

Until I was able to get a job I guess I have more time to work on my art and the place I live in for now..

Well until next time! Take care!

Hello there!

Had a 2 weeks vacation the end of July. Done some stuff, sadly worked on less on my art.

Back at work trying to figure out which way I want to really go with my art.

Experimented a bit on my rendering an style. Interested on trying to

learn Live2D besides Blender. Some games came out during this time,

so I'm trying to balance my free-time.

Until then,

Bye!

Hello there!

Not really a very talkative guy, but still try to commit to this update every month.

First of all: name change happened here and most of the places I upload (if it's available)

Summer break is here so I hope it will be more chill and I'll have more time to work on my stuff.

( I work at a private school)

As I mentioned I try to keep myself with at least 2 drawings a week, mostly for practice and stuff.

I might mentioned I started to do some 3D stuff, don't know if I should post pictures about it or not ._.

Also thinking about which character of mine should I focus more on with my art.

Currently sick (2023.07.03) but hope still get some stuff done.

Until then!

Bye!

This is kinda the first blog since I'm here.

So hello there, I'm Alex/Maou!

I'm a 2D artist who's working as an IT guy. I know you first check my bio and see that I joined in 2014 and this is the first time I wrote anything here. I have welp ADHD since birth also was in a toxic environment ( parents etc.) at the point I have to take meds for anxiety and depression. Oh yeah and I'm introverted...yay? (just to clarify some stuff, not for attention)

The main thing that since I was able to temporary(?) move from that environment, I got more and more into stuff I'm interested in and like. That is firstly drawing again and improving my art process and style. Other hand 3D and animation again. I'm planning to upload minimum 2 art piece a month. Depends how my work allows it.

Second is that I'm changing my name from MidoriMaou to Endangered Cryptid soon.

My reasons are mostly that since my life changed a bit I could use some "fresh air"

I came up MidoriMaou when I was like 18-19 and was watching a lot of anime (surprise..)

So the classic "I wanted an edgy name with stuff I like" so yeah... also the new one is catchy I think.

I'm still Alex or Maou to friends and others.

The name change might happen around next week.

Also I'll try to post a blog at least once a month.

If ya want to talk or ask anything, just write :D I'll try to answer as soon as I can.

(sorry if you wrote me before and I didn't reply :/ )

Byee
