Alter Ego - Blog Posts
Hi everyone!
In short, while I was working on the art called "magnum opus", I decided to make another test art for another type of painting to decide which one I would use.
But due to some unpleasant circumstances related to my university's accounting, I have to suspend the work for an indefinite period. Both arts will be finished, I promise!)
And while I'm working on solving the problems, I made sketches of my OCs. Even though I haven't used most of them for a long time, I refuse to forget them! Although they are unfinished, each of them has at least a small story from my life associated with it, if anyone is interested.
In the meantime, wait for more arts and bye!)
Someone might think that I'm dead or just lazy, but nope!
Even though I'm now trying to get back into the work rhythm after my vacation, I also decided to meet my "magnum opus" again... and break its back!)
So now I'm preparing more detailed art (based on "TPoH") than usual, while trying to move away from traditional art a little towards digital... I hope I can handle it.
In the meantime, here are the sketches I made today in painting classes (above are versions of one of the works for the exhibition).
P.S. Yeah, I really like Faputa.~
Unfortunately, I've been very busy with work lately, and what's worse is that next week it will become more difficult, and this will continue for about another month or two...
So I have to compensate for sleepless nights at work like this:
So, as I promised, the update to the final v3.0 was successful!
Now my body is completely mechanical, more agile, durable and powerful! But what I like most is that I managed to reanimate my very first monitor, although not without some problems, like broken glass, which I never found a replacement for. But it's okay, I'm glad that after so much time I was able to install it and run it, and, except for the left eye, everything works fine! Oh, and don't worry about water or poor ventilation, I thought about these things in advance.)
So, despite some difficulties in work, which were and will definitely be in the future, now I'm quite happy.)
Since I plan to request the third and final version of my OC in the near future, I want to first give credit to the first two, which already appeared on my page once, but I didn’t really like for one reason or another.
But I still want to immortalize them as part of history!)
I don’t know why, but I generally like the design and working methods of old technology.
This is probably because any old technique was made by people for people... that is, with soul.
Which makes Vox's situation seem rather deplorable to me...
Due to the holidays, I have a little time to take a break, so I downloaded Vox-shimeji to my computer...
And this is the moment that gave me the idea for this art:
- Just sit still! Stop crawling all over my screen! I can't see the stream because of you!
- I am Spiderman! I can crawl wherever I want!!!
here you go @koku-stars! i already had a wip of alter ego in my gallery so, err, yeah
i will get to everyone’s requests just give me some time :>
ALTER EGO
Another game! I honestly thought Es was a man, but then I went to look fanarts and I realized she was a woman. Anyway, the drawing is mine, I do it as I wish.
I’m also playing other game besides this, and why are they always black-and-white with minor colorful details? Is it easier to paint?
Alter ego re-design. I think I'll name them Orion 🖤🔪
Feel free to ask me questions about them!
nieustannie szukam.
może tym razem?
Why can't my sleep problems lead to this?
that one moment in chapter 4
🧁🤍THE BATMAN EFFECT🤍🧁
🤍Are you aware of the meme where people start identifying themselves as batman ? Turns out it is more than a meme. The batman effect means where you pretend to be character like Batman or Barbie to complete a task.
🧁In a University of Michigan a researcher , Professor Ethan Kross , he completed a study he completed with several colleagues where a sample of 4 and 6 year old children were invited to complete a boring task on computer . The children were instructed to work hard , keep it as long as they could and they were reminded the task were boring . To test their commitment to the cause , the researchers informed the kids that they could take the break whenever they wanted to play a game on tablet .
Group one - Researchers told them to ask themselves , " Am I working hard ? " while they completed the task.
Group Two- Researchers instructed these children to ask themselves , " is y/n working hard ? " .
Group Three - Researchers told these kids children to pretend they were a favourite hardworking character like Batman , Bob the Builder or Dora the explorer . They received a prop like a cape as a visual reminder to act like their character. They were instructed to ask themselves, " Is Batman working hard ? "
Result - Children in group one did not enjoy their task . They took most breaks and their motivation was poor. The second group did a little better . The third group or the Batman group worked harder , took fewer breaks and enjoyed their tasks more than others.
🤍The batman effect works for not only children but for adults too !! Beyonce has an alter ego " Sasha Fierce " , her alter ego allowed her to be confident . Adele also has an alter ego " Sasha Carter " , her alter ego was a combination of Beyonce's Sasha Fierce and the real music star June Cartar. Adele admitted that her alter ego helped her give her best to every performance during her breakout year. I believe even k-pop idols have alter egos , there are idols who are bubbly and shy in real life but on stage they are confident.
🧁The Batman effect helps us to reduce anxiety. Adopting an alter ego is an extreme form of self-distancing which involves taking a step back from our immediate feelings to allow us to view a situation more dispassionately. When you think of yourself as a separate identity , it is not you that has to perform the task , it is Batman . It can help you to build confidence, increase concentration , improve your emotional regulation and help you to gain self-control . Your alter ego has no limitations.
🧁So the next time , you lose your motivation to study ? Pretend you are Rory Gilmore. ( whoever you upto for study inspiration) . You feel you cannot do anything ? Pretend you are Barbie. You feel you cannot dance ? Pretend you are Michael Jackson.
💗🌺YOU DON'T LIKE YOURSELF? CREATE A NEW VERSION OF YOURSELF💗🌺
💗INTRODUCTION
The world needs to accept as you are. no ! The world does not owe you anything. People do not owe you anything. We are changing everyday , we are always trying to improve ourselves. No person is the same person as he or she was from the day that they were born. Everything will be okay when you make it okay. Your life is in your hands. Nobody is coming to save you. Not your mom , your dad , your spouse , your children etc. You want your life to change? You have to change.
🌺CREATE ANOTHER VERSION OF YOURSELF ( ALTER EGO)
Beyonce says that whenever she goes on stage she is not Beyonce , she is Sasha Fierce. David Goggins grew up in poverty, gained alot of weight but then he lost weight and ran marathons. They all say to create a new version of yourself.
Liz said that she is lazy , doesn't like attention which comes from social media and stay her in bed all day but all this will get her nowhere so she created a new version. Somebody that is confident , uses her platform , goes after her goals , gets up and goes to gym and somebody with a very hard mindset and tough skin . You need to create a tough skin especially if you are an influencer or a celebrity.
If you start acting like your alter ego , you will become like her. Ask yourself . What does the higher version of yourself look like ? How does she / he look like ? What is she / he wearing ? Who do they date ? What is their career ? How do they spend their time ? What is their hairstyle ?
💗START TAKING SMALL STEPS TOWARDS GREATNESS
Before doing anything , ask yourself , will my highest version do this? If you are eating sugary food, ask yourself If your highest version would eat that dessert. If you don't feel like going to the gym , ask yourself If your highest version would skip gym or go to gym.
🌺WHAT'S YOUR PASSION/ BEST CAREER OPPORTUNITY?
Find your own passion . No one can tell you what your passion is , you need to find it .
God gives us passion because that's what we are supposed to do.
If you have no idea about your passion , what am I really good at ? Every single person is good at something . It might be as small as cooking, managing team or very much into social media.
💗GET HONEST WITH YOURSELF/ STOP SUGAR-COATING
You can't be always kind to yourself, sometimes you need a reality check . Also , ask yourself what your best version of yourself would do ? Go for walk. Listen to podcast.
🌺PRACTICE THE LAW OF ASSUMPTION AND TRUST GOD/THE UNIVERSE
Talk to God as if he is your best friend. Ask God and the universe for the things you want. Don't expect help if you don't ask for help. God puts people in our life to help us , to upgrade us.
💗LET GO OF TRYING TO CONTROL AND START TRUSTING THAT IT WILL HAPPEN.
Ask once , be specific and practice gratitude before asking. Start assuming like the world is designed for you to succeed .
🌺GET INTO THE MINDSET OF : WHAT WOULD THE HIGHEST VERSION OF MYSELF DO ?
You walk into a room , you have a meeting or a presentation. You feel nervous. Ask yourself : what would the highest version of myself do ? Shoulders back , walk into the room and start talking. Wherever you go , think that everyone is in love with you , it will make you confident.
You have to tell yourself affirmations . Look into the mirror and say " I am powerful . I am amazing. I am going to kill this day ." Ask God to help you and stand by me .
💗ACCEPT THAT RECOVERY IS NOT LINEAR AND BE GRATEFUL FOR THE BAD DAYS.
It takes accountability. Going through the progress of looking at yourself differently.
🌺FALL IN LOVE WITH THE PROGRESS , NOT THE GOAL.
Know that the bad day is a blessing. How will we appreciate good days if we have no bad days ?
If you want an expensive watch , the watch itself doesn't fulfill you , it's the process towards the watch & the anticipation. If you want to lose weight , going to gym regularly and seeing the scale going down, Feeling healthier and better. That is the process. That is happiness.
💗STOP TALKING ABOUT IT AND START ACTUALLY DOING IT
Do not tell anyone about your ambitions .Show them what you are doing .
If you tell big dreams to small minded people , they will never support you because they do not understand. They have not done it themselves
🌺DON'T TALK ABOUT IT UNTIL IT IS DONE.
The big issue with people is that they want to talk before it happened. Why are you putting evil eye on yourself?
" What people don't know they can't ruin "
Be private. You never know who is praying for your downfall.
Don't talk about things you want to accomplish before you accomplished them.
