Hello people of the papercraft universe :) Writing a bit early since I am gone for actual New Year and will not be on my PC, but this is the actual last post of the year 2020! AND IT’S ABOUT FREAKING TIME!!!
As already said with my Christmas wishes, the year has been pure crap, and thank hell it’s over soon. We can only hope the next one will actually bring us something good. No matter what you went through this year, shit politicians, corrupt governments, broken and trampled-on human rights, taken away freedom, lives lost, disease, fear, depression and psychical trauma, and not matter what “side” you are on with this pandemic, let’s not all forget that we are in this together. Quite literally, since we all live on the same planet really. And I think that’s the most important thing to learn from all of this. So, let’s try to skip the negative, internet trolling, bashing, badmouthing and judging others, and let’s try to set a positive attitude with the people living on the same planet as us. If not for them, do it for your own inner health and peace, because at the end of the day, you live with yourself and you alone are responsible for the course of your life. So, let’s take the last step of the year, say “Fuck you 2020!” and go out with a grand finale!
As for the picture in this post I made, it is the actual cover image I am now using on all of my social media sites and other sites, to unify all of them in a new design and a new attitude to papercrafts. I actually updated it more than 1 month ago, and didn’t really comment on it, but maybe since it’s the last post of the year, I can briefly explain what this has to do with anything.
This year I had a lot of time to actually assemble all of my old papercraft designs (since I always test assemble and assemble them myself), so because I had so many good ones, I decided to make a unified papercraft banner for my work. I wanted to join all of my sites together, so it’s clear I am the one and only designer behind all of them. And that my papercrafts are a serious work in which I put a lot of work and pride into as well.
I know times are getting harder, also in economic sense for the middle and lower classes (as always), and I know that I do have a bit of a complicated system for papercraft purchases, since I don’t have direct links for downloads. I know I overcomplicate things, and I know that I overreact sometimes when my things and designs get bluntly stolen or copied, so in all sincerity, thank you for all of you out there that followed me and supported me through this extremely hard, in mental and economic sense, year for me. I hope you can forgive my flaws; I do try to make things in a way so as much of you can be happy with the work I try to provide, and it is hard since everybody has their own taste and sense, but I really do try my hardest. Believe me.
I hope that in the future years to come, you can also support me the way you did, or even more, that would simply be amazing. I do apologize for not making anything special for new year or any freebies, I was simply too busy with “real-life” issues to make anything on the go. --- But do believe me when I say that I am preparing new posts as we speak, thinking of new giveaways for you, assembling new papercrafts (as you can maybe see in the banner picture as well ;)), and much, much more.
To over +10 years of papercrafting and to many more to come. I hope we all have a wonderful new year and keep your heads held high! There is always sunshine at the end of a thunderstorm! Always.
