But this warrants a site update: here is what I’ve been up to in the year 2021!

SlimeVR

SlimeVR is a set of open hardware sensors and open source software that facilitates full-body tracking (FBT) in virtual reality. With no base station required, SlimeVR makes wireless VR FBT affordable and comfortable.

A set of 5 SlimeVR Trackers

I started developing it in December 2020, opened Discord and first posted publicly about it in March 2021. In August 2021 I launched a crowdfunding campaign on Crowd Supply with a great success.

Join discord or subscribe to the campaign page if you want to follow the development.

Fanart

The character is Alyssa Gillespie from webnovel Isekai’d Shoggoth.

Stardust

And my new wallpapers. We all are just fancy stardust :3 It looks pretty stunning on a good display if I to judge myself. It’s the first time I actually drawn a wallpaper for myself, and I’m really happy about it!

Here is how it looks on the lockscreen:

Tablet

And here is the new tablet I got - Huion Kamvas Pro 16. It has been a blessing, drawing like that is so much easier. And I can actually use programs like Clip Studio now, instead of sticking to what my Samsung Galaxy Tab could run.

Art work in progress:

This should mean I will make more art now, but as usual: life has weird plans…

Slimeperson Art2020-01-13T01:00:25+00:002020-01-13T01:00:25+00:00/2020/01/13/slimeperson-artI’ve been drawing this art piece for about 10 days on and off (maybe like 20 hours total, but still), trying to figure out from scratch and references different things… As you can see, it’s not finished. I wanted to draw a full character, with line, color, shading, background, detail, face, accessorices, etc, but as I went I learned a lot and noticed a lot of things that I wanted to redo from the start…

It would’ve been a smarter move to just go through with it, learn as much as I can for each stage, but I am not trying to become a professional artist, so as soon as it stops being fun, I drop it. This is still the most complicated thing I drew so far anyway, so I am excited to see where I go next…

I am inspired to try again. Going to take a more fun pose and try another style, much simpler one. Despite my desire to drow detailed and juicy anime stuff, that’s far from my level and I need a simpler style. I learned how I can find it, so I’ll try…

I was going for a full body drawing, but mostly wanted to focus on the portrait, so that’s where I went further. Still, I have this sketch left over :D

By the way, I have some of my old art in my Telegram Channel! You can see how I’ve grown up over more than a year since I started drawing simple slimes :)

Vacation and writing2019-12-26T13:51:25+00:002019-12-26T13:51:25+00:00/2019/12/26/writingAfter going on a vacation a few weeks ago I have unlocked my creativity, motivation, and inspiration. Who would have thought, that I needed a break after being constantly responsible for one project or another since leaving school? Depends on how you count, I haven’t been on proper vacation since summer 2010…

For the last two years, I’ve read more books and web novels than I’ve read in my entire life before this and all this time (and for some time before) I’ve been dreaming to start writing my own and publish it online for everyone to see. I’m a huge sucker for some fantasy adventures with non-human protagonists… AND I’M FINALLY DOING IT AAAAAAAA

You can find it on this site or on one of the sites more suitable for reading web series and following authors:

It’s a story about a demon that got bored after years in hell and went to see what mortals are up to. Action, adventure, magic, weird people and more magic.

This is a whole new experience for me, I and I’m living for it now :D I even drawn a cover for it!!! Heckkkkkkkk

Anyhow, check this out if you want, or do whatever, I’m just sharing my happiness ^^

Oh, I also drew this cover! Which is the first proper illustration I’ve drawn!

I’m doing a lot more stuff on my vacation, some of which I might share later too! Follow me on Twitter and in Telegram if you want to :3


I also opened a whole new section of this site, along with different updates (it’s dark now, for example): Writing!
