It happened. I finally decided to start working on an entirely new world unrelated to the world that I have worked on for the past 3 years. It was tough taking that first step, but it had to be done. When I sat down to start working I began to think back to all the things I learned in building my first world, and imagined what I could have done better. The first thing I wanted to do was ask myself some questions about building a world for the first time and to make sure that I covered the basics. Here are the questions that I asked myself. I hope they can help you spark creativity in your world creation process. Some of these questions I was able to snag from various blogs, but I compiled them into a list that I felt better suited my needs.

Who/What is keeping the world going?

What is the biggest threat to society as a whole?

How strong is magic?

How civilized is civilization?

How many cities are there?

How many people typically live in cities compared to rural areas?

What era of tech has society reached?

Is there public education?

Is there an army?

Is there a draft?

What kind of government are the cities run by?

What type of government is most common?

How large is the landmass that the story covers?

How much of the world is explored by the people in the particular area of this story?

How much of the world is covered in this story?

What are the 3 main ideals and principles to society as a whole?

How safe are people in everyday life on average?

What motivates society as a whole?

Is religion common?

How many gods are there, if any?

What is the religion structured like?

Is there a systematic worship or a free form?

Is religion taken very seriously?

Are there any important religious sites?

Are there any important religious items?

How is religion expressed?

How long has society existed?

How long has society documented history?

What events have led to the story’s present situation?

Are there different social classes?

What is the geography like?

How has the past shaped the geography?

What do people eat?

How many languages are there?

What are 4 common ways to pass the time for enjoyment?

How do rich people dress?

How do common people dress?

How do poor people dress?

What is the political climate?

You can support my comic A Roads Journey over on Patreon now!

Hi guys!

Today is the day I announce the re-launch of my Patreon! My Patreon is now solely focused on the creation of my webcomic A Roads Journey, a Pokémon Nuzlocke fan comic. I also have several other comics and games I want to work on, but for now, the Patreon would be exclusively for A Roads Journey.

A Roads Journey is a solo comic project by myself, and so far it has taken me 6 years to reach the half way point of the FIRST installment of this story, due to having to work as a full time freelance artist to just cover rent, but if you donate anything even just $1 a month, it will help me help me greatly towards my monthly rent, and hey if I reach $500 a month I can make A Roads Journey a full time job without worrying where my next pay check will come from!

Obviously you’ll receive rewards in return for your pledges though, there’s even free things for people who simply wish to just follow my Patreon, so go check out my Patreon for more information on those!

But if you just want to make a one off donation, I also have a Kofi account!

Where as Jamie’s the one whose gone and gotten himself lost like an idiot.

I just noticed Tumblr doesn’t show the update posts in the tags because I’m linking to off site =~=

I’ll delete this post later and work out how to create new update posts for the next update next month.

SO THANKS ABOUT THAT JACKASS, so follow the link below to the post that links to the next page of A Roads Journey!

And here’s the next page!

OOH BOY AND DO I HAVE A LOT TO TELL YOU ALL GUYS!

Firstly, as you may have already read, I am upping my panel count for each page, so that we can get through events at a much faster pace, and complete this story before I am old and grey, especially considering I have two sequels planned for this story, which at this rate I’m currently going at I would never get to, hence the much needed panel increase.

So I hope you all enjoy that!

SECONDLY as you may have already read too I’ll be updating my Patreon, so you guys if you want to help support me and A Roads Journey (or my other comic and projects I have in the works) you can do so now with much better and cooler rewards for you all!

You can read a better announcement on the patreon update here!

Since your help would be ever so grateful, but you can even just simply help by just following my Patreon, since I will also be posting a bunch of free thing’s too!

But you can also signal boost my posts would be highly appreciated if you can’t donate!

Hi guys!

I’ve got a huge announcement to make about both my Patreon and webcomic A Roads Journey, as well as secret projects that I have in the works, from a video game to another original webcomic!

With your support I’ll be able to make this my full time job, creating webcomics and video games for you all to enjoy! So if you enjoy any of the following things: Webcomics / comics / games / pokemon / nuzlockes / witches / magic / cute characters / LGBT content / magical modern world setting / fantasy and just general fun with a hint of drama and heartache, please stick around and check out my stuff!

But now onto the announcement!

As you all know I’m updating my Patreon with a whole slew of new rewards for the tiers, and this announcement is a schedule announcement for what days you can expect to receive update information on my Patreon updates!

But first, I would like to announce the release date for my new Patreon updates!

⭐ Wednesday 28th February! ⭐

This will be when my new rewards come into effect. The first week of March (Thursday 1st March to Wednesday 7th March) I will be posting the first batch of rewards for my current patrons and any newcomers to the scene!

But I still have one other announcement to make.

I’ll make announcements between today and the release date for my new rewards and I’ll release information of what each reward tier will be called and what each tier will offer to everyone!

So the schedule will look like the follow:

🎵Thursday 22nd February - $1 name and rewards announced

⭐️Saturday 24th February - $5 name and rewards announced

💚 Monday 26th February - $20 name and rewards announced

☄️Wednesday 28th February - New Patreon rewards are released & updated!

I hope you’re all as eager and excited as I am for the upcoming announcements and release of my new Patreon!

I can’t wait to show you all what I have installed for everyone!

Signal boosts and reblogs are highly appreciated to get the word out, even if you can’t support me financially.

So, until Thursday 22nd February take care loves! 💚

Guy’s I’m curious.

Would you guys want me to update more regularly? By regularly I mean every week at a set day, on a set schedule?

This would mean that the elongated pages would be chopped up into smaller pages

OR

Would you guys prefer to have one update per month as the elongated pages?

I’m still debating and want to weigh up the options and such.

So please any opinions and answers would be lovely!

And it’s Friday again! So it’s another update for A Roads Journey!

Heck yeah!

Okay first of all, I would like to thank you all who’ve shown me support over the years of creating A Roads Journey, as well as recently all the well wishes for the comic series, it truly means a lot and makes me feel like what I’m doing isn’t just disappearing into the ether.

So thank you!

Secondly, I have lined 54 panels of 66! I ended up adding an additional panel to the page so, whoops. Below you can see everything that’s been doing.

Purple = Fully Lined

Blue = Fully Lined Today

Red = Fully sketched

White = Still need to sketch

So that’s always fun, but I plan to get the lineart all completed either tomorrow night or Sunday night if I have to push the deadline back a wee bit.

SO once I complete the lineart all I have to do is add the colour, since I’ve been adjusting and fixing the speech and bubbles as I trudge along with it!

Now onto Patreon.

I’ve been writing and re-writing my description for my Patreon and I think I’ve got it nearly completed, so once I finish this A Roads Journey page, I plan to start updating my Patreon before the end of this month, with the whole new perks and rewards!

So all of you who want to ask questions about A Roads Journey, request doodle art or even you Sims 4 players better get ready for a whole slew of new rewards and perks coming your way!

So I will leave you with that update for this week, and hopefully next week’s update will be a new page for A Roads Journey as well as updates on my Patreon!

UNTIL THEN FOLKS!

HEEEY! It’s another WIP from A Roads Journey!

I spent like 3-ish hours on this panel alone.

You can also view this on my Patreon here guys!

HEY GUYS!

It’s Friday again and that mean’s we get another update! WOOHOO!

This week has been fast paced whilst also being slow at the same time, but regardless of that I’ve sketched up 48 panels from the 65 panel page!

Check it out!

So that’s progress right?

Also I’ve been updating my Instagram on the daily with progress shots of the page from previews of the panels basically!

BUT MAN OH MAN

I AM SO EXCITED TO GET THIS PAGE DONE.

So much progression happens, that would have originally taken 2-3 pages, and just.

AAAAH I’M SO EXCITED.

Plus once we get past this page, y’all are in for one HECK of a journey.

Since we’ll finally be stepping into the waters of my original plot, properly. like you won’t know the full extent of what’s going on, but if y’all haven’t noticed the changes I’ve been making to Kanto’s story line yet…WELL.

You’ll definitely notice after the page after this one.

ALSO Heads up on my patreon situation!

Hey guys!

I plan to make Friday’s a general update on the progress of A Roads Journey and such! AND OH BOY DO I HAVE A LOT TO TELL YOU GUYS!

Okay firstly, I’ve realised earlier this week, I was constraining myself to work at 30-40 panels and no more which…When I sat back and thought about it, I realised, that’s why it’s taken me 6-7 years to get half way through the Kanto storyline and I have two more region stories planned for Jamie and the gang, and yeah..I need to speed up.

So I’m speeding up, putting more onto a page, and disregarding the panel count, and that’s the thing. I condensed what was initially 11 pages, into 3-4 pages. SEE HOW FAST THIS SHIT IS GONNA BE GOING NOW?!

I bet you’re thinking though, that’s all the information I have for you all, well NOPE!

This weekend I’m going to be renovating (is that the word?) my Patreon, to be centered around A Roads Journey, so goodies and exclusive rewards you can get from becoming a patreon to me exclusively for A Roads Journey! There’ll be other content for my other original works and comics, but the main focus would be A Roads Journey.

Well now what could be the rewards? You’ll have to wait and see this weekend coming, BUT I will let you know of one of them.

Sims 4 houses and rooms.

BASICALLY I’ve began to make houses and rooms and set’s in the Sims 4 for my comic,so I can use them in my comic as the template for backgrounds, so THAT MEANS, instead of me just deleting those builds. I will share them with you folks! If you have Sims 4, I would upload the houses/lots/rooms exclusively to my Patreon, for you to download and to play in in Sims 4!

So now YOU can play in Giovanni’s house and feel like a badass Team Rocket boss! 💚

WHELP

I’m round off 2017 with a bad cold guys! Considering I haven’t been sick in 8-10 years I did pretty well but when I do get sick it bedriddens me essentially…

So yeah.

Next update, I’m just going to start fresh, like I’M NOT RE-DOING THE PAGE, HELL NO!

I love how it’s coming out.

But I’m going to say, fuck 2017.

The next update for A Roads Journey will be out no later than 31st January 2018 okay guys?

Hope you all understand and sorry about this.

But, from January on wards, I will make it one of my new years resolutions to update ARJ once a month.

Which I know I CAN do! I’ve done it 2016. I was trying this year, but this year was too much for me to handle.

Also I plan to start working on my original comic’s story, characters and such this year, and I also want to re-do my portfolio, @thethinkingfruit​ will be helping me figure this out.

So, yeah.

Onto 2018 and the continuation of A Roads Journey and many more adventures for me!

For now I’m going to curl up, watch youtube, probably play BotW and just, try not to die from sickness lmfao.

Here’s a character reference for Jamie from my nuzlocke  A Roads Journey!

The next page for my nuzlocke, A Roads Journey will be out some point in December, the reason being is I’ve been suffering with bad back pains that I’m having to take it easy on drawing, so I’ve been playing video games a bit more, but when I do draw it’s usually for commissions or I’m working on video editing.

And I’m so sorry about this guys, BUT I plan to in 2018 publish one comic page per month! Also I’m planning to alter the way I colour the pages! I plan to colour it more like these examples!

EXAMPLE 1

EXAMPLE 2

EXAMPLE 3

Which I basically do anyway except I add flat colours down first, where as this person just uses water colour’s to get the colours!

So yeah, next update will be in December at some point! 2018 will lead to a page per month!

Oh and don’t forget to vote for your favourite nuzlockes at the 2017 NUZLOCKE FORUMS EXTRAVAGANZA and show some love!

So with that I’ll bid you all adieu for now!

And Happy Holidays!
