It's the second month of 2022 and there's been some things that has happened.

First off, I got Metroid Dread from my big brother's wife and played the game on the weekends since that's when I got enough free time. And I know it may sound cliché when it comes to the latest title of any game series, but Dread may be the best Metroid ever.
Sure it's weird how you get the morphball and bombs near the half-way point, but the gameplay is still good and fluid.
I did originally want to stream it, but since my capture card makes the computer I'm using blue screen (for some reason), I haven't been able to stream, but at the bright side, when I do manage to get a new computer, I will be able to stream Dread and I won't be doing it blind!

And work practice is going well and this month is my last there, which I hope will be going well and help to lead me somewhere good. Okay, the exact date is the first of March, but to be technical, that would make it exactly one month of time.
I'm not done with the animation project I'm doingm which means I'll have to ask for a trusted link to a pirated Adobe Animate since I don't agree with Adobe's business practices like expensive fees for cancelling subscriptions and their support of NFTs (I would like to remind you all that NFT sucks, I will not go into more details since I'm tired of talking about every bad point about it).
When it's done, it will be uploaded to Newgrounds and Youtube. Or maybe just on Newgrounds since my videos on Youtube are gaming related and it would be weird for my subscribers there if they saw a video after years of no new videos that has nothing to do with games.

What will happen when my time at work practice is over? I don't expect to suddenly get a job right after I leave, so while looking for a job that works with me, I will also be able to spend more time writing my stories and scripts for a comic that I hope will be done in March.
The comic itself would be a pilot featuring my characters from the Heavenly Kyuubi setting, I would like to see what people will think about it, it's gonna be action based, like Magus Doe (for those who have read it), but unlike Magus Doe, this pilot comic (issue zero) will be published for free, just got to fix someplace for it to be posted.

I do hope I will be able to get some books finished and get a publisher interested in them, but we'll have to see when that will happen.

When it comes to art I have heard there's a new site named Buzzly, a site that I hope will not be dying like Weasyl, but I'm pretty sure it will be a lot better than what Deviantart currently is. XD
So far I'm just considering joining it, there's nothing confirmed yet.

Thank you all for reading, if you have gotten to this point then do tell me if there's anything you want to see more from me.

I didn't make a journal yesterday as my mind was on other things, but happy new year everybody!
Let's hope this year will be good and maybe I will be able to afford a new PC.

I don't have that many plans for the year, other than push my works further and try to actually get my books published.

I have been working on a short animation starring my kickboxing cat Tabitha while at work training which has been going slowly as animation takes time and it feels like I can't focus on it too long but I can't say for certain if I got ADHD. I do hope to get it done this year at least.
I do wish I could be able to hire a voice actress for her, but the way my budget looks, my chances of hiring one is quite low.

Back to the new PC. If I'm able to buy a new one, then I will hopefully get to stream more regularly again. Maybe just one day per week due to work training and how they really want to test my limits for how much work I can take in a week (I'm thankfully free on weekends).
I may like to shift between my fursonas, but I'm still Alexis on streams (Cyborg-Lucario is still appearing as notifications, so he's not entirely gone from Twitch).

You all are already aware of ways to help me save up for a new computer considering I'm plugging them all the time. ;3

I hope you all have plans for this new year and I will see you later!

Happy holidays everyone, especially to my jewish friends and followers since Hanukkah is this week, how are you all doing?

Work training has been going like usual though with the animation project I'm doing starring Tabitha, I would need a voice actress to play her, but sadly I'm unsure if I could afford hiring a voice actress and I feel awkward having to ask my friends if they can play her for free or cheap (also, it would not be fair to their time), which makes it even more uncertain when I will be finished with it, but when it is finished, it will be up on Youtube and Newgrounds.
I will of course tell you all in advance on Twitter when I will put it up to prepare you all for it.

Other than that I will still be working on my ongoing story, Journey of the Gnoll Queen. How do you all like it so far? If there's anything you'd like to tell me regarding it, please go ahead and tell me.
I will go as long as it needs, trust me, I don't seek to fill it with fillers but at the same time I don't want it to go too fast with the pacing.

And I'm also working on Magus Doe from time to time, and funnily enough I got ideas for another comic, more of a pilot that is that I will post on it's own site (Tumblr perhaps?), but don't expect it to come out soon considering everything else I'm doing.
Some of those things being holiday related, which you will also find as merchandise on my RedBubble and Teepublic stores.

Other than that? I hope you all will have a fun and safe December, especially if it's constant snowstorms. Have fun everybody and I will see you in the next journal, which will be next month unless I decided to write another journal.

Hello everyone, I got some things to tell.
First off it's Gnollvember and therefor I will be doing stories about my fursona Alexis Strype and her backstory. I hope to release more than one once per week, but depending on the time I may have to continue the series even after November is over, just trying to keep things realistic.
I hope you all look forward to those stories, and don't worry, there's gonna be images accompanying them.

Something not related to gnolls or hyenas is my work training which puts me on more hours, which means I will be coming home later, unless I get a day off.
And as you can understand so does that give me less time to work on my projects, I hope you understand that will make my drawings take longer to get done, especially when I'm writing stories for them.
I may still find time for commissions, though I may limit it to four slots to manage my time better.

Wow, and I'm also trying to work some more on Magus Doe as well, which if I'm lucky will be finished before 2022.

That's all for me right now, I hope you will have a good day and remember to hug your hyena, especially a certain big one. ;3

Originally written on Twitter, but I thought I needed to put it here as well.

I want to apologize for being so slow with the fourth issue of Magus Doe. Maybe I should release the first three issues for free? It may be I have no motivation since people seem like they don't want to pay for comics. I can only hope whatever people say will make me feel better.

I have no idea where to post them. The first place I hosted the comics had a monthly fee but since no one apparently didn't want to buy it then so did I look for an alternative and found Gumroad which doesn't have a monthly fee. Posting it somewhere for free is another thing.

I'll keep my ears and eyes open for any advice you may have.

If you somehow have missed out on my comics, you can find them here: https://app.gumroad.com/jackalland

If you like action, magic, superheroes and cute anthro girls then Magical Guardian Magus Doe might be the right one for you!

When I prepared for my stream today so did the computer crash, twice!
This killed my mood in streaming and therefor it's cancelled.

This makes me want to get a new computer even more, but I also need a new phone, and trust me I'm trying to find a job even though it's hard.

In the meantime so do I have to survive with just the little money I get which is all going to bills and food, and also occasionally commission money.
For those who commission me, thank you so very much, you're of much help.

I could ask you all to commission me, but I may not have the time to do all of your commissions, though you may still ask if you want.
Some other options is to buy my merchandise on Redbubble or Teepublic: https://www.redbubble.com/people/Cyborg-Lucario/shop?asc=u
http://tee.pub/lic/0PMOekCYlSQ

I have thought about making some kind of themed donation drive, whether it's about weight gain or something other fetishy, maybe it's not gonna have anything fetishy at all?
The only reason I haven't done it earlier is because I have no idea if any of you, my watchers, would be interested in such a thing.
Would you be interested in donating to see a character of mine grow bigger?
Could you please answer that?
You would be donating using Ko-fi in that case.

I do have a patreon as well, which I mostly treat as a tip jar of some kind, but it's still something to consider at least. If you like my art and want to support me, you can do that in whatever way you want. It's the thought that counts after all.

Trust me, I didn't plan on this kind of journal, I just wanted to stream Deltarune and battling Jevil for everyone to see, but I guess I wasn't allowed to do that.

Do with it however you like, I hope you at least have a good day my friends.

If things are going alright and nothing wrong happens with Streamlabs or Twitch, expect me to stream more Deltarune (for real) at 20:00 (8:00) pm today.

I will be sure to beat Jevil and finish chapter one. Depending on how long it takes I may have time to play Chapter 2 as well.

Last Monday I rebranded my Twitch channel, so expect me to stream as Alexis instead of Cyborg-Lucario (even if he still appears as some notifications): https://www.twitch.tv/alexis_strype

There's still a lot of work to be done making the layout, but I hope you will still watch and enjoy the streams.
I streamed Deltarune on Monday but didn't finish it because I got stuck on the Jevil fight, something I hope I will be able to finish in this stream today!
I honestly was unsure if I would be streaming on Wednesdays, but since Metroid Dread is coming out on Friday so do I have no other option.
I'll be seeing you on the stream starting 20:00/8pm CEST.

Hello everybody, when it comes to updates so do I have a few.
First off like the title said, I'm gonna be focusing a lot on drawing orcs, especially my Hel, and yes any other orc will also be of the boar variety, I will probably not draw any of the popular western orcs (unless it's a fan art of a media).
I only have one design of Hel on my Redbubble and Teepublic, but they're still available. https://www.redbubble.com/shop/ap/83946951
https://www.teepublic.com/poster-and-art/23348491-hel-the-gladiator-orc?store_id=342173

Next on the agenda, I I have been at work training the past few days which has had varying hours but it's usually the same that it tests how much I can manage at a work place and that it ended at 3 o'clock (though next week it's gonna be 2.30 o'clock), which does leave me with little time to do my stuff or to play games.
I do hope it will be a piece in the bigger picture that will help me get a job.

Don't get me wrong, I appreciate everyone who commissions me, but sometimes it can be good to have a more reliable income. Though I guess it can be partly solved when I finally manage to get one of my books published.

You may wonder when I will have the time to work on those considering I said how little I get after work training is done for the day? Well there's another news, my DM and a close friend of mine has had problems with inspiration and motivation for RPGs. I know that I could have been a better player but it still sucks his motivation has dropped due to lots of things happening in his life.
He didn't cancel our current D&D campaign, it's more a four week break. It is sad that there won't be any D&D or other RPGs on the weekends, but instead of moping about it I should be using the time I now got to work on my books (and also work on the fourth issue of Magus Doe, I'm so sorry it's taking me a long time to finish it).

Lastly, even though I'm using an old computer which has discourage me from streaming or playing games on it, but the thought or returning to streaming has grown on me no matter how my equipment is. I so want a new computer but it looks like I need to use what I have at hands currently. Hopefully it will lead to me being able to save up for a new one.
I also think about rebranding my Twitch channel from Cyborg-Lucario to instead use my femsona Alexis Strype. Why her? Because she's a gamer and a streamer, and also because I feel she's as close to me as Cyborg-Lucario.

I'm also planning on short stories (some may come in comic form) about Alexis that expands her backstory, but these will come in November (Gnollvember) and in the meanwhile you will have to enjoy the orc pics that will be posted this month (I may have some other pics not related to orcs for variety).

I hope you will have a good and spooky October, and I also hope I will get to be at the Halloween party on Halloween itself, or close to it.

Until next time, see ya!

First off, I'm doing fine, though bills have been rather nasty last month.
I have gotten to update my Redbubble and Teepublic stores with new designs for sale and I hope I will be able to do more with it.

Otherwise you're free to commission me.

Something I should get to do is working some more on the fourth issue of Magical Guardian Magus Doe, I stopped working on it because I somehow broke my ruler. It's weird that happened and I also can't believe I haven't gotten a new one.
I wish I could get the motivation to work on it again.
In the meanwhile you may get the previous issues at my Gumroad store: https://jackalland.gumroad.com/

I also still hope I can get enough money to buy a new computer so I can stream on Twitch again since I don't trust the one I'm borrowing to handle me streaming games or even reactions to events.

Hopefully that will be possible, and also I may be able to finally buy a tablet after getting the new computer.

In the meantime, have a good day everyone!
