In Which we return to SimCity 2013, victim of blind spots...

Good afternoon, my friend, reader of this post! Happy Tuesday, how are you? How have the first week of 2025 treated you? An auspicious start, so I hope! As for me, I am okay... at moments, because I have been trying some different things on my games and computer, I feel in the dark, walking in circles with no purporse and so I become frustrated. The hobby has also caused me to be less mentally available for drawing or writing, at least over the past few days, which is also a source for dismay. In retrospect, though, it's not all bad. I think my first drawing of 2025, the cherry tree, tradition since 2022, looked quite charming, and I trust I will do some more at some point real soon, there is no reason for any stress I'd say, even if I stress all the same. The year caused me to become surprised with its walking, because on a chain of events that started with SimCity 4, released 2003, I ended up returning to the infamous title SimCity 2013, famous for ending SimCity as a franchi...

In which we author say Happy Halloween and see the sketch of the week and something more!

HAPPY HALLOWEEN EVERYONE!


Today is such a cool and spooky day!!!! One of my favorite holidays of the year, that takes over the whole October, just as Christmas takes over all December and Thanksgiving takes over all November!!! So lovely holidays, I love them too much! Every celebration, just superb! Hope you're having a great time today, and you ate lots of candy and all that! Candies are so great!!!
Of course, I don't have Halloween where I come from, which is sad, but I can rejoice seeing the celebration happening overseas! I also don't have thanksgiving, and the same thing applies... I also don't have Fall, and so on... well, at least I have Christmas, that part is true, and NO ONE is taking Christmas away from me! It's the only Holiday I have here that I truly love, and I'll never grow tired of it!
But anyway, today is all about Halloween, and Trick or Treats, and scares, and just a moody atmosphere, and so on... some clichés, some not quite, still a lovely time of year!
I also caon't believe October is coming to its close, it passed way too fast! It was the month of the Captain, my awesome friend, and of Becky, my other awesome friend, who had their birthdays this month! It was a month of different sketches and some subtle changes on my blog, it was the month I had my ears fixed so I can hear better, it was a month better than September. It was a month overcharged by college, but also one I made it through, almost didn't, but I made it. It was a month of Spookiness and the beginning of Summer where I live, so my spookiness is try to survive in an oven getting hotter and hotter. Well, I'll miss this month.. It was a good month, and I'm ready to have a nice November as well! The official prologue of Christmas season! My decoration has already been on my wall since September though, so anyway...
Also, in homage to Halloween, let's meet the Sketch of the week!! Meet Tobias Strom!


Born without name, just like most of my sketches, his name was given by one of my very good online friends, that I like so much to talk too! He's pretty cool! Tobias come in a creative moment in some Sunday of this month, and he embraces Christmas, Fall season, Winter, Halloween, thanksgiving, Art Noveau, Arts & Crafts and lots of loop lines, he's definitely going through something and he doesn't know what it is. He has a nice beautiful straw hat with a very special feather that has much value to him. And he also has the coolest sweater around, and has strong eyebags. Poor shy and silent Tobias likes to be on his own, he doesn't like people bothering him or treating him badly, so he just lives in quiet fear, in silent, but wearing his beautiful clothes, and just loving Halloween, and Christmas. At least for now he's a very special sketch for me, and I'd like to have him as my friend, one of my friends, that I like so much...

Also, I wanted to end this post by giving another shoutout to the amazing youtube Channel Door Monster, which just hit 250K subscribers, which is a wonderful mark!! I can't believe I've been following them since March 2016, more than two years by now! And already in to 2019! I wanted to give a shoutout to them today because, since 2014, they do a very cool stuff on Halloween day! One that eventually gave the channel its actual name! That year, 2014, on Kyle's house, they wore a Monster costume (or actually putted a Moster costume behind the door, it's hard to explain!) and interacted with the public that way! How awesome is that??? That video was the first hit of the channel, and they kept on doing it since then! To celebrate Halloween, let me share with you guys each one of the times they did that! A new Door Monster edition is coming for this year, and they're doing a live on their Youtube channel to give us details on how they make everything, one that I wish I could watch, anyway, here are the videos!!!


And here on, those are the Door Monster videos I could watch already following them


And, as an final thing for this post, here's a fanart I made on Kyle, with the costume he wore last year on Halloween:


I love Kyle, cause he's awesome, and looking at this sketch, it predicts a lot of the tendencies that would get more mainstream on my sketches this year.. Anyway, so here's for Halloween, Door Monster, and another nice October!! Hopefully November will be a nice month as well! I wish you the best, and I'm so happy you're here!!! Again, Happy Halloween, and Merry November!
