Hey guys.
I don't think many of you remember who I am. Figures though, I've been disappeared from the face of dA since who knows when.
This year has been far most, the busiest of all. I had to double my amount of time to study because the lesson's getting harder each day. On top of that, I still have colleges and universities to think about. Making artworks are not even on my agenda anymore. I still love drawing though, don't doubt that. It's just...I rarely find time to do that. Seems cruel, I know.
That's why I have decided that I want to drop pixel art forever.
Pixel art consumes the most time of all, for me at least, because it requires sooo much of my concentration and focus. I often stayed up until 2 in the morning to finish one piece of it (my fault actually for being too stubborn to sleep xD). I'll always love pixel art, and I'm still going to appreciate them more now that I won't be creating anymore. I personally recommend anyone who hasn't tried pixel art to try making it. It's REALLY fun, I mean really, really fun, to the point it's addicting (thus my late night sleep, lol).
But besides that, I think I just want to focus more on digital painting and sketches. I still have a loooong way to go with those kinds of art, and I'm no expert at those, at the moment. I'm going to take architecture course in Melbourne too so I guess I require both skills atm for my future studies. (Anyone going to Melb too? xD Let me know!
In conclusion! (I feel like writing an essay) I'm not going to be so active in dA, as you have realized (or not), but I'm still going to submit my artworks if I have any. I won't close my dA account because it's where my artwork history is. This account is still a reference to my art skills.
I hope reading this is not that time consuming for you (which probably already is if you have read this far), oh and before I finish, please vote for my latest work on threadless ;

If you vote I'll love you forever, and if you're not...well, I'll still love you guys <3
I really miss you guys on dA. dA had taught me so much about art and I found myself growing, trailing back to my first artwork (which sucked) until now (still probably sucked xD). I'm still hoping I could make more friends in here, because I know I'm not much of a social butterfly and I'm very sure none of you guys have had a friendship bond with me that much. I'm generally a reserved person so...I guess I have to blame that for my antisocial behaviors :')
I hope I'm not too late to make friends here, sometime in the future. I hope my art will speaks for itself when it comes to touch your hearts xD
Thank you guys for everything! And this is not a goodbye! I'm not leaving dA. I'm just...on a temporarily leave
P.S: Thank you so much for all of the watch and favorites and comments and features! I can't describe in words how I appreciate that even after my account is dead :'D Thanks guys!
Love you guys <3

I totally understand what you're going though, as I'm also in that situation. but not taking it seriously..
I'll also miss your pixels. also understand how time consuming it is
Looking forward to your artworks.
Thank you for understanding :''D
Highly unlikely we'll be attending the same uni cause I'll be going to college instead. orz
But the thought is pretty damn awesome. c:
mungkin sedikit sharing, aku kerja di jurusan teknik fisika, kerja di kementerian pertahanan. dan sampai saat ini aku masih dengan gembira menekuni fraktal, dan aku bangga karena di indonesia sangat jarang orang yang menekuni fraktal. aku bangga, meskipun di indonesia tidak diakui. toh aku juga gak butuh pengakuan. yang bikin aku tetap menekuni fraktal adalah karena aku suka, dan juga ingin membuat anak turunku kelak bisa bangga punya aku sebagai leluhur mereka. itu aja.
aku cerita ini karena aku liat di indonesia, komunitas pixel art dan fraktal punya kesamaan, yaitu masih sedikt yang menekuni dan belum ada apresiasi luas di masyarakat. mungkin dengan cerita ini biasa dijaambil sedikit analogi.
sedikit sharing aja.
goodluck buat kuliahnya.
wahh hebat sekali teknik fisika! iya sih, ak jg berharap nnt bs dapet wkt senggang yg lbi byk waktu nnt uni. soalnya yg jadi isu paling mendesak skg tuh cm mslh waktu doang :/
iya, itu bisa dimengerti
