Hey, guys!
Quick update here. I just got off of the phone with the expert working on my hard drives that got nuked during the transition to my new work PC.
Only one of the drives the recovery expert is working on is work-crucial for, but I don’t know which is which, so I’m paying to get both recovered.
The data recovery expert did a diagnostic check on the drives and they need work internally.
DANGEROUS CURVES/MAVRIX PROGRESS
According to the expert, the drives’ internal work could take anywhere between 3 days to 12 days SO I’m just going to jump back into the “Dangerous Curves/MAVRIX: Enter The Dollhouse” pages and get back to working on the colors/letters for them. By the time the drives are done being worked on—recovered or not—I should make significant progress on Dangerous Curves/MAVRIX and get close to completion.
I’m now working on coloring the pages I would’ve been if the hard drive crash hadn’t happened, so if I’m able to get back that data then I’ll be right where I would’ve been had nothing bad happened.
HARD DRIVES RECOVERY - WHAT CAUSED THIS?
I wasn’t expecting this setback, BUT I know how it happened: I was building two PCs at the same time(my son’s and mine) and when I brought the two hard drives into the office, I needed a 6-pin cable with SATA connectors to connect them to my power supply.
I took a cable out of a box in front of me which had these connectors, hooked up the drives, plugged them into the PC and the PC refused to power up.
The problem was this: THE CABLE I SELECTED WAS FROM MY SON’S POWER SUPPLY AND NOT MINE. The cables for each power supply have a different voltage setting and when I powered up the drives, they basically got shorted out. Never had that happen before.
I had to pay a pretty hefty lab fee just for him to start and it will be a significant cost to recover both, if possible: around $750 for the smaller drive and around $1000 for the larger drive.
I hope you guys understand the delays here, but I’m just going to get back to work and not wait any longer.
SCAROUSED CALENDAR SKETCHES
The preliminary layouts for the SCAROUSED! Goth Girl Calendar are nearly done, but I’ll continue to work on them in between Dangerous Curves/MAVRIX pages.
SHADEDRAWS.ART WEBSITE
Guys, I took a few hours over the past few days to work here and there on a new website. See, once I start doing video stuff on YouTube, I won’t be able to link or even verbally refer to a website that has NSFW content on the front page, so I decided to launch WWW.SHADEDRAWS.ART
I looked at website from other YouTubers(some of which have over 1 million subs) who actually produced lewd art content in their spare time and found that their sites—even ones that had an age gate verify—just didn’t have lewd content ON THE FRONT PAGE. These sites had links to NSFW content in their menus; just not on the first page you see.
Check it out and let me know what you think.
Thanks, guys. I appreciate your patience.
Shade
And since you saved like 90% on DropBox, you can pick up the progress on the title?
Also, maybe you could put Shade Exclusive stickers on them?
Like a Mavrix or Dangerous Curves sticker?
Easier way of distinction between them. LOL
