I worked on this for weeks. But then my old iPad I’ve been doing art on for years decided to literally explode this morning.
Long story short, the lithium battery exploded and caused irreversible damage. Fortunately it didn’t catch on fire, but unfortunately for me I hadn’t backed any of the data up, so all my art and animations are gone. The only animations and drawings I can access are ones I have saved to other devices or posted to Discord. Thankfully I still had this much of the animation saved, but I actually made more progress than this. I’m pretty bummed out considering that more than 400 artworks have possibly been lost (more than 4 years worth of art).
Of course, it all could have been worse. I’m lucky it didn’t catch fire and destroy anything else. But a few words of advice for anyone out there: always back up your devices, use the stock charger they come with, check the battery, and don’t charge your devices overnight (especially not on your bed or near anything flammable).
