Hey there! A quick art/life update!

 Short version: I'll be most active on twitter  twitter.com/tymkiev
Feel free to DM me anytime if you want to ask me anything or just to talk!

 Long version:
Lately I've been pretty inactive here on DA and on social media. By "lately" I mean almost 4 years or so. It's due to depression, some other health issues and generally harsh life stuff. I needed a break, but didn't expect to disappear for so long.
In past few years I found myself not enjoying art like I did before. I'm not sure if it's just "being an adult", or more likely, losing confidence in my own art. I rarely drew for myself, even though it used to bring me so much joy when I was younger. 
10 months ago I quit my job (it still gives me creeps), and started a new one, as a full-time concept artist for video games. Becoming a professional artist has helped me rebuild my confidence, and little by little, week by week, I started to enjoy drawing again. Not for fame, nor to impress anyone. Just for myself. 
Now I want to push it a little further and get back to my old shape, when I used to doodle almost every day. I'm probably going to draw some silly stuff I love the most (to chill), or do life/photo studies (to practice).
Since DA is no good for doodles, I'm going to post my art on twitter (I also had tumblr, but I quit after they removed my drawings for no reason). I don't like facebook, and I'm still considering making an instagram account for art, but for now I'll just stick with tt. If you want to chat, feel free to hit my DM there!

Uhhh, this was tough. I'm still super shy when it comes to sharing personal stuff. Anyway, have a great day everyone! If you ever feel insecure about your art, please remember that you don't have to prove anything to anyone. Just do what makes you happy♥

Hey pals,
Today I found a girl who:
1. Takes other artists' artwork,
2. cuts out backgrounds (she calls it "rendering", seriously what the...)
3. She watermarks her "work" with her own username!
4. In most cases she doesn't even credit the original artist.

Obviously, it is ILLEGAL to do so. More than that, the artists clearly stated that they do not want anyone to repost their artwork.
(for example www.pixiv.net/member.php?id=12… or twitter.com/STUPIDDRAGON_)

Please help me to report this person.

Hi! I got an event code from trakolock.tumblr.com/, but it seems it's region locked for US (I have an European 3DS).
So if you have a 3DS from US, and you haven't recieved Darkrai yet, just let me know and I'll send you a PM with the code. 

Remember that it won't work if you already have a Darkrai from this event, it'll say "You have already received this gift" instead. However, it's only one code for a game, not for a console, so if you have ex. Y AND OR, and you've recieved Darkrai only in OR, you'll still be able to use it in Y.

I HAVE ONLY ONE CODE SO I'LL EDIT THIS WHEN THE GIVEAWAY IS OVER! Please don't ask me for extra codes/EU/AUS or other!
