In Which Civilization has a SimCity moment, a bad omen

Hello there, my good friend, kind reader of this post! Happy Friday! Hopefully another beautiful day, maybe we should indeed give it the benefit of the doubt! How are you, my friend? How have you been? I have not write much these days, alas... It is that thing of having some stuff in my head but not being able to take them out to my satisfaction. I mean, we could as well be seeing the collapse of the Civilization franchise, for example. I think I wrote it before here, that I am not optimistic about this title, that their heart (if at all) is in the wrong place for this entry... I could smell the miasma, but now it is clear: reality is even worse than the predictions and projections of before. The Steam consensus, this morning, got as low as 33%, an absolute catastrophic number for the franchise, it is a snapshot of the bad User Interface, the lack of customisation on the game, its mechanics ossifying the main building, or ot is what is implied on even the milder of reviews.

In which we have an update on my activity as a creator!

Hello everyone, and good morning, happy Saturday! How are you today? How are things going? I wish you the best and hope all is well with you! Thank you so much for being here! I'm doing okay, just very tired at the moment, but anyway, just here writing on the blog, seeing my friend Mint stream on Twitch, and also hanging out on Discord, all at once lol, quite the multitasking! Never said I was good at it though, just saying that is the intention! Well, so I told you guys I enrolled in the course right, did I tell you guys what was that about? I don't think I did, it's ministered by the Spanish Illustrator Adolfo Serra, and I pretty much love it, I watched U1 yesterday, that talks about the concept of a illustration book, a story "for children" and how to create a script for your own creations, was pretty nice I have to say! I hope to have absosbed the content of it pretty well, I should talk about it more in the future! Also, I made some purchases on Amazon yesterday, and amongst them I bought this book by Johanna Basford, one of my favorite artists! She is the author of anti-stress books of coloring, I have to say they don't work for everyone, but they're an excellent way to spend your time, I know because I have spent quite a bit of my time playing with them! Back in the senior year of High School, I used to sit with my buddies and just color page after page of her books! My bud Camila had a nice collection of color pencils, so that was a plus! I never heard of Camila anymore, unfortunate, but the friendship just faded, but the memories remain! Well, here's a sample of one of her works:

Today's post brings a bit of a creator's journal lol, with some ideas about what to write, what to color, and so on, I hope those may help my ideas brew and so things work well just fine, there is no guarantee it will though, so let's enjoy the moment! Talking about the drawing I just shared, I really love it! It's quite the inspiration for when I draw indeed, and I look forward to check the work of this particular artist more in depth! I hope to share more of my insights on this when the book arrives, until then, let's enjoy the moment, and wait... wish you the best my friend, hope you may have a very pleasant day, and things be fine, see you next time, hopefully soon!
PS: If you like, save this image, print it or color on the computer if you have the proper software for it, the result may be really cool! If you'd like also, make sure to share it with me sending me via email or on social media! Make sure to tag the artist as well if you do!
