The Void Within Me [4K]

Finally another wallpaper from me, after a month of hiatus. If you are wondering why I made a particularly sad wallpaper, its because before I started working on this wallpaper, I had a "minor depressive episode" that lasted a few days. Funnily enough the reason why I had that "minor depressive episode" is because I read a story that had a very sad ending where one of the main character dies. In all honesty I have no idea why I felt so sad after reading it, mainly because firstly, it wasn't like a brilliantly written story with very fleshed out characters and impactful language. It wasn't bad sure, but it also isn't great either. Secondly, I first read that story like 2-3 years ago, and I didn't feel depressed after I finished reading it, so yeah pretty weird.

Anyway, due to that depressive episode I had, I decided that I should go ahead and try to animate a sad wallpaper and to name it after my "depressive episode". It wasn't easy though, I held off editing this artwork for a while because of how intricate and complex the hair of the girl is, and I know it will take me a long time to edit the hair well. Eventually, 2 days ago I went all in onto this wallpaper, and I would say that I didn't do too bad of a job for the hair, and honestly I am pretty happy with what I had done. After the image editing, doing the animation itself wasn't too hard or stressful. I pretty much finished it in a day.

Also, its almost been a year since I started animating wallpapers! Yeah I know, technically I started animating wallpapers on Dec 2020 when I released my 1st one, but I consider my 2nd wallpaper to be the point where I really started animating wallpapers, because I did not intend to continue animating after my 1st wallpaper and I have been consistently outputting wallpapers since my 2nd one. It's a bit weird to think that I have been doing this small hobby of mine for almost a year, and have grown to be a quite successful wallpaper animator due to it.

Anyway, thank you guys for enjoying my live wallpapers so far! I wouldn't have continued animating wallpapers without your encouragement and support. Hope you enjoy this wallpaper!
