Small updates, starting with the title:

For those that haven't read the previous journal, I've been approved for surgery to address my chronic abdominal pain. It is happening this Friday, and I'll be out of commission for roughly a month. So all of June will be my recovery period.

In other news, I've been working on some environment painting learning to get the starter project up and going. I've been working on one, called Hybrid Shadows, to give people an idea of the story before I actually start it. Should learn if this is really for me too with the smaller set of characters as well. I'll see what post surgery, future me can do about posting some of the stuff regarding it. I've already had it written and scripted for a long time, figured it would be an easier thing to pursue what with this year having been such a problem with my physical health.

Right now, I'm waiting on the shipment of a replacement for my tablet, the connection part is being wonky despite me being rather delicate with it. It lasted me almost 2 years, and I'm just glad I don't have to fork the cash for a whole new tablet just because one part of it has stopped working well *cough*wacom*cough*. I've had many previous surgeries for different issues, and I tend to get really sketch moody so I don't want to have to deal with that while I recover.

With that, I'm out. See you in a bit, and hopefully, one less body part is forever stuck in agony pain mode by then!
