NAMECHANGE: SOCKSANDJOGGINGS -> ZOUKEAU

Posted by Zoukeau - September 4th, 2022


I have a NEW NAME!


So I've decided on a name change. The name "socksandjoggings" works just fine for what I'm doing. Sadly, I've grown to dislike it. I've been looking for a bit of a new start. I have worked on three large projects that all flopped. I've thought about starting completely anew and abandoning all my accounts as "socksandjoggings", but in the end I decided to keep them. I did make a different account but deleted it later. All the art I uploaded there I'll re-upload.


Anyway, the first of those three projects was an asymmetrical fantasy RTS on which I worked together with a friend. When it became clear that this project was too big for the both of us we decided on something smaller. The second project was a Rampage-inspired game, however my friend couldn't quite find the time to work on it since his own life was getting busy. The last project was a miniseries of Metroid-based fan-animations, as an imagining of what Samus Aran's early bounty hunting life would be like. The length of these animations was simply too much.


Other than those projects I've done some painting, got back into crosshatching, made some portraits and most recently I've been getting deeper into Blender, which now bore some fruit. Somewhat to my surprise I'm actually enjoying figuring out all the little technicalities that come with 3D-software. There's many things I'd like to make, this time I have to try my best to go about it sensibly.


Edit 19/10/'22: I've decided to move back to this account and change the name of this account instead, from "socksandjoggings" to "Zoukeau". This way I can keep all my work in one place. I don't have the impression many people read this post when I first put it out, but I still apologize for the confusion to those that did.


Edit 13/01/'23: Took out some of the more personal things in this post, didn't feel comfortable with them being on display like this. Honestly I'd rather delete the whole thing but I'll keep it up for the sake of clarity.

If you have supporter status, they do let you change your name here if you wanted to take that route! I did that a couple years ago myself

Oh... Well that's awkward. I've kind of already made the switch but I'll look into it some more anyway. Thanks for the info!
