    What are your story seeds?

    It's starts from some stray thought that wiggles its way into my brain then refuses to leave lol It varies in what it actually is. Sometimes it's a character concept or visual design, a scene, some broader piece of world building, or sometimes it's even just a single sentence where the wording...

    What Are You Playing Now?

    Pretty much have only played Helldivers 2 recently with some buds which has been lots of fun! That being said, whenever Earth Defense Force 6 drops we'll probably end up dropping it completely for that lol Haven't played much single player wise recently, but the itch to dust off Darkest Dungeon...

    Using AI effectively

    I have a friend who likes using things like ChatGPT here and there as a launchpad to get the ball rolling whenever he gets stuck on something. Haven't really used it myself. I can see the value in what it can be used for and acknowledge the tech won't be going anywhere, but the way these things...

    Show Us Your Desks!

    I've actually never used Corel, in fact this is the first I am hearing of that program! I hopped between Photoshop and Sai for a long time before settling on using Clip Studio Paint which I have used for the past few years. My desktop is actually an illustration I did of two characters from one...

    Show Us Your Desks!

    Nice stuff Mans! Most of my stuff resides in the 2D realm, but 3D modelling is something I have been trying to learn as well :] I made a model of one of my character's swords which I had printed to turn into a key chain. Haven't found the time to sand it down and paint it yet though! As a...

    What are your aesthetic or concept preferences for novels?

    I'll give pretty much anything an honest shot but some definitive ways to garner my interest are: Wizards, sorcerers, mages, magisters, etc etc. I am a BIG sucker for magic and those who cast it on any and all levels. While I do love the aesthetics of the classic wizard, I love when stories get...

    Show Us Your Desks!

    Not always this clean, more often than not I have some kind snack or meal to pick at while I do other things or my sketchbook with various traditional tools scattered about lol Been working with this set up for the past while, enjoy it quite a bit!

    De-Digitalization. Do you make an effort to stay offline?

    Admittedly I spend a whole lot of time online. Good chunk of my hobbies and interests exist in its domain and my closest friends are presently only able to be reached through it. I don't really take measures to monitor or limit my time online, though I do notice a pretty big dip in it whenever...

    What do you look for in a book cover?

    I would argue that covers are art. The easier way to break it down is cover illustrations and cover iconography- both are equally art just different approaches to it with differing strengths. Cover illustrations are very effective for say comics, an already visual heavy medium. They're good for...

    What do you say?

    Goodness that's a lot you've jumped a lot between Lowan. I really agree with that view though with everything having value to the creative bank- gotta build it up where ya can. I would like to come back to what I originally said and rephrase though cause I realize I could definitely worded my...

    What do you listen to?

    I'll listen to anything if it grabs me. I have genre preferences of course, but I've encountered nothing so far that gets me to be a flat out no lol Led Zeppelin is real good, I like a good chunk of their stuff! My big favorites are Everything Everything and White Lies, neither of them are...

    What do you say?

    Well I certainly enjoyed something about it, granted how long it loomed over me would've made me insane otherwise. Does it function as a story? Yes. It does what it's supposed to do as part of the medium. Is it good? You tell me, I don't know your tastes. Something being good and something...

    [Game] Last one to post wins!

    I have not seen Wednesday yet! Glad to hear you enjoyed it though, seems like quite a few people do. Honestly can't recall the last time I sat down and watched a series... I always just end up on youtube if I want to watch anything lol
