Finished the recording for the massive update. Thank you all for your patience I now need to find a video software since I still don't have the adobe cloud. The video clocks out just under 4 hours (gonna see if I can cut some more audio out of it.)
Heads up on what the video is about: Destination Unknown is a story that's my inner world expressed into the outer world to the most literal degree possible. Because of this, I was struggling to get an update video explaining what has been going on with me without taking a look into my life prior to discovering the animation community. This is a very vulnerable and unscripted video. With that said, I understand that some of the things that I will discuss may be a source of discomfort to some with similar backgrounds.
Future content warning: Bullying, loneliness, RSD, religous trauma, faith and spirituality, brief mention of the dangers of the alt right pipeline and AI, spoilers for DU and just spilling my honest thoughts out because, as many of you know, I have a lot to say xD
Keep in mind that everything (outside of the stuff about DU itself) I bring up is about stuff that happened irl--a majority of it before I even joined YouTube. Destination Unknown isn't just a fun story inspired by my love of the animation community, it's my thoughts and heart spilled out to the most authentic degree on a public platform and I want to express the history that led up to it and what ultimately led to an identity crisis I was in about it for years. But I'm motivated to return to YouTube and whether you stick around after the video, I hope you are all having a good day and keep creating to your hearts content! <3
Special thanks to Howie, Winter, Siv, and Brim for always being awesome. It's been a great journey seeing you all improve in your own crafts since 2018 and I'm beyond grateful for your frequent presence over the years. I'm excited to pick up my paintbrush again and continue animating the stories you've all been eager to see.

About 2/3 of the way through recording the update video. I also am making some speed paints related to different topics so take this poster as a peace offering for now.

I was planning to record for a massive update video today but apparently we have site wise construction going on in our complex. Can't record with constant hammering and banging noises so I suppose I'll share a frame for chapter 23 instead. That's something I'll explain in the update: I have a comic on Webtoon right now and we're getting into the climax for season 1 this fall. At this point, uncertain for when I can record the video but the goal is sometime within the month of August itself.

Debating on throwing these two on Art fight as well. I've never explained who Artixi is aside from being this channel's mascot.

Going to be participating in Art Fight this year to get back into drawing again! It sure has been a while.
I joined team crystal since Gemstones play an integral role in the narrative of Destination unknown and Expedition Uncharted. The last arc of EU is titled "Anisotropy" which is a direct nod to a classification of gems when they are viewed under pure light. Anisotropic stones have a wide spectrum of colors that are otherwise invisible to the naked eye but like how the rainbow itself is invisible unless it's shined through a prism.
