In Which the Civ 5 mod Vox Populi has balance issues...

Good morning, my friend, dear reader of this post! Wish you a happy Friday, and an excellent weekend that is to come next! How are you? How have you been across the week? As for me, I am okay, overall. The weather on my end has been more consistent, as the days have been relatively hot over a number of them. Not ideal, I hope for more rain to cone at some point!  I, for some reason, decided to take the dust off Civ 6, and play it a bit. I trust this is due my Civ 5 current fatigue. Is it my favorite civ? Absolutely. But that said, as I already saw what I wanted on the vanilla, I did mention this time and again, I have since shifted towards mods such as the big Vox Populi one. That gave this entry a rich afterlife with me, specially as Civ 6 fail to sit well overall.  Alas, this mod is not a silver bullet to revitalize a game that I have play more than enough at this point. I am happy to still try it, but this particular mod has a huge issue concerning wars, which is borderline...

In Which I take a small break from Sketching!

Happy Wednesday everyone! Good afternoon and Cheers! Wish you the best, dear reader! How are you today and how are things going? As usual, I hope all is well! How is the weather where you are? Here things may diversify from Summer to Winter, as today it rained and it also made heat with the sun shining through. I read a bit of my book, but so far the most significant thing I've done was picking up my new laptop on the store, and it looks beautiful, I'm so happy with it, I need to share it with you guys asap! Just look at it! 


Now it is larger and heavier than my old computer, which is impressive, also something that concerns me, on the question of how am I gonna carry it, or use it in the bed or sofa, this is quite complicated! But anyway, details apart, I couldn't be happier with everything!



This is it concerning my new laptop, I wanted to talk a bit about taking a small break from drawing, part of it was intentional and part of it was not, as you have anxiety, college, routine, just the chances these days, in one side it's bad as I miss doing it, But I also look at the paper and feel overwhelmed, just too much to do! This is never the right mood to draw, you should go step by step, never thinking  of how hard it would be, at least for me, however, I fear losing the practice, which is silly but also a real fear, something I should write more about, in other it's good to take a break, just do doodles instead of proper sketches, don't force myself to do it, and just rest in general, I should make a drawing tomorrow if I can, or this weekend, OCD doesn't help me at all as well, making pastimes feel like an obligation left and right, it sucks so much, if I make a sketch I will sure share it with you guys, I'm planning on doing a landscape or some face, maybe a building, may take me a while but anyway, I'm just happy I can draw! And I need to practice more too, now that I got my new laptop I should look into doing digital art as well! I should take an hour of my day to practice! Who knows, maybe it will work out in the end! Well, for today this is it, creative block is been a reality these days and it's hard to draw and write as well, but I'm glad to be here, and I see you all next time! You are the best!
