Blog Schedule September - November 1st

Image
In an effort to get some consistency in my creative endeavours I've decided to create a schedule for my blog to let people know what they can expect me to talk about in the future.  The following schedule is outlined to fit my currently planned activities, and will be the minimum I aim to provide.  If anything else interesting happens, I will make posts outside of the current schedule as well. The main days for blog posts will be Wednesdays and Sundays each week.  Most Wednesdays will also have two posts.  I have not yet come up with a specific time to post by, but they will always be made on these days according to UTC. As a general guide at the moment, Wednesdays will be for Art related posts, and Sundays for World Building related posts.  Game Development and and Music posts will be every Wednesday every two weeks. Schedule 20th Sept (Later Today) - World Building 23rd Sept - Upgrading My Art 27th Sept - World Building 30th Sept - Art Challenge & GameDev ...

Upgrading My Art #2 - Practice Makes Perfect, but Style?

Image
  This week I've learned a couple of things and realised a few others about where I am with my art and where I would like to get to.  In the last week I haven't really finished anything I can share, but I have done a few things.

World Building #2 - Applying My Approach / First Chapters

Image
  In my first post in this series I talked about the way I think about building a world and how I think about expanding it from an initial idea into an actual fictional world. With the whole reason for this series being to share how I go about creating a fictional world, I didn't think it would be fair for me to explain my process and just leave it that. So, using my recent project as an example, I plan to share the world I've been creating through this blog series. This post and other future posts will include chapters from the document I have been using to record my thoughts on my fictional world to hopefully illustrate how, by starting with a single idea, I'm working to expand on it to create a world and all that being a world implies. My hope in creating my world is to create a resource, and a setting, that I can use for any number of creative projects.  Also, by setting projects in my fictional world, I hope to be able to create games and stories set in that world that...
