These past couple of days have... been crazy for me. I haven't been feeling great. Not sick, just not feeling motivated to do anything at all. I also had more restless nights. I was going to start chapter 16 of SaGia on Monday or Tuesday, but never started on it. I'm still away from social media and will be quiet on this blog. My contact page keeps getting visits (22 page views as of this post), but no one reaches out to me. I don't understand. Same with my Linktree... people view my Linktree page but don't click on anything. I tried everything I could promoting my Ko-fi shop too. I know social media isn't a reliable place, but I try to promote it every now and then whenever I feel like it. As I said in my previous post, this economy sucks and people are holding back from spending. Wednesday and Friday, I had to talk to my dad about my feelings. I also found myself back to my impulse buying issue and told him about that too. For personal reasons, I don...

I had such a terrible last week. Although there were some positives such as being interviewed last Monday about my comic and it being shared on Wednesday, there were some negatives as well such as said interview not getting enough reach, even after sharing some of the clips from the interview on my socials, my vent about the mobile game Dragon Ball Legends going way downhill with the addition of the Legend rarity , and Popeye's messing up my order by giving me a regular chicken sandwich instead of a spicy one. As mentioned in my previous post, I was laying in bed, crying badly. I haven't been feelin' motivated at all to draw any new fanart, nor work on SaGia. I didn't really draw anything on Valentine's Day. One day, I got bored and made this new SaGia art of the main four (Haido, Lain, Lass, Rena) in the same cel-shaded 90s anime art style similar to my current banner and profile pic that's on my Bluesky, Facebook page, etc: I really liked how the new drawing ...

Originally, I was going to make this post private to my subscribers on my WordPress, but decided to make it public. Be prepared as this is a long one. If you don't want to read this post, that's fine. Not a lot of people really interact with my posts here or that they care about me sharing my art. Let's talk about a mobile game that I've been playing since 2021... 5 years. And it's my first gacha game and only gacha that I currently play: Dragon Ball Legends. More like, "Greedy Ball Legend(ary maintenance)". I wish I never hopped on. I fell in the gacha trap. For those who don't know what a gacha game is, look it up or click this link . It's basically virtual gambling with getting fictional characters and you don't know if you will get that rare, stronger unit or not. (man, I miss that title screen.) This game... has left a bad sour taste in my mouth since last year with so many changes the app has made. The UI update took me a lot of getting ...

Today is my dad’s birthday, and I gave him this watercolor drawing of SSB Goku!  And yes, I’m excited for the new Super arc! Might pass on the Beerus/Super remake. Originally, I was going to do Super Saiyan 3, but because of the new Super stuff that was announced on Saturday, I chose Super Saiyan Blue instead.

I've never seen anyone 100% this game online, so I decided to do it myself and document what happens if you get all of the medals in every level. Wow, one-hundred percenting this game was a pain . I had to take breaks from this game because of how some levels started to get difficult - notably level 9. The final level especially: they throw so many enemies at you that your health drains quickly. Luckily, I played on an emulator that has a rewind option - SameBoy (it's a good emulator for playing Game Boy and GBC games - I recommend it!). After getting all of the medals in the final level, you're greeted to the same congrats screen and I thought that was it. Turns out, there's another screen congratulating you for getting all of the medals.  And then, the credits roll. That's it. I'm never coming back to this game ever again. At least levels 1, 3, and 4's music sounds good to me :). This game actually makes me want to watch all of the show. By the way, I love...

My indie comic, SaGia is back to being out of hiatus and this week, I've been making progress. No social media and no YouTube because those two have been distracting me away from the comic and that it causes me to have some restless nights. I've been sleeping better, well, kind of as I tend to wake up either early in the morning or later in the day. It's gonna take me a lot of getting used to as my body is still not used to waking up really early.  This week, I've finished 11 pages out of 44 for chapter 15. Here's an out of context Lass panel - one of my favorite panels I've drawn for this chapter: If you ask me how long does it take for me to complete a page, I'd say 1-2 hours, depending on how much dialogue and details the panels needs. I've been doing two pages a day. I do take breaks when I need it and I make sure to stretch because Monday when I started chapter 15, my neck muscles were really sore from looking down at my iPad on my lap.  Once chapte...

  This might be the best Stitch merch so far. I recently discovered this on Saturday by a Google search on accident and I was actually curious about this plush. After finding more about the plush via a video, I bought them and fell in love with them. They’re so interactive and fun and worth it! If you ever want a “real life” Stitch or Angel, these are worth it! *insert FNAF jokes here?* Links: Stitch can be found on Amazon and other stores! Angel is only Amazon exclusive. My review on Amazon: I rarely write product reviews… this is my first review on Amazon. I randomly discovered this plush on Saturday and got curious about it. I never really owned any Stitch merch or plushies, but after watching some videos by YouTuber See Rad of both Angel and Stitch, I had to get them! I got Stitch through another website since he had a better price. Wow, these are big; maybe life-size!  I did see some differences between the two: Stitch does speak some English, while Angel does not; she sp...

Quick drawing I made last night of this underrated Dragon Ball character from the original series. Date started and completed: 11/3/25 linktr.ee/wimbearn

Date started and completed: 11/2/25 I finished these two shows (Hercules: The Legendary Journeys and Xena: Warrior Princess) and boy, they have been a long binge watch for me due to their episode length. They're really good and fun live-action shows... it's rare for me to get into live-action shows. linktr.ee/wimbearn

Based on chapter 13 of my indie comic, SaGia, this drawing features two of my characters: Ula and her rival, Tentais. I've been mostly drawing Jikiru and Haido, so I decided to take a break from those two and wanted to draw someone different. After looking at some Toriyama illustrations on Wednesday and getting inspired, I felt the drawing mood come back and started this drawing on Thursday 10/30. For this drawing, I decided to take the digital watercolor approach. I had some Ken Sugimori brushes I found online in Procreate, so I used those. First, I sketched the idea in my sketchbook. I pictured a serious looking Ula coming up to her rival, while Tentais is big in a square next to her while being behind a dark background, smiling. She originally was going to show her teeth, but I changed it to an open mouth. After finishing that in my sketchbook, I took a photo of my sketchbook drawing on my iPad and transferred that to Procreate. I lowered the opacity and traced and adjusted usin...

While I’m still on break away from the dreaded place known as social media, I’ve been working on several SaGia merch designs. I plan to get some of these designs printed next month since I’m almost low on money and that I regret all the spending I did on my birthday on other stuff. That’s why I have a goal set up on my Ko-fi on getting SaGia merch funded and I had shared it online. But, I just feel as if people like and move on, forgetting about the post, not even sharing it. I even tried to push out fanart to see if someone would commission me but that didn’t work out.  This image you’re seeing above is a teaser for one of the designs I had finished up yesterday. I have plans on putting this design on a tote bag and shirt.  I also had finished up two sticker designs: one featuring Jikiru and the other featuring Lain, Lass, Haido, and Rena. I’m starting out small with the merch. Once I have enough money (most likely after my third event in November), I will use it to get shirt...

Happy birthday to me! Original drawing by me.

Today is the 1 year anniversary of my indie comic, SaGia! For those who have read it, thank you for supporting it. SaGia forever! 💛 I also drew special artwork of Haido meeting her past self (her old design seen in Chapter 1).
