-Palace of Thebes. Untold ages ago-

Aunty Ino told her to stay in the cupboard until she came and got her. Nysa was as rambunctious a child as any three year old, but she knew that listening to Aunt now was best. Especially when Aunty had looked so scared.

Nysa did not know what was happening or where the screams had started, just that she had been playing in the courtyyard, and soon, all she could hear was terrible, terrible screams.

Nysa buried herself deeper into the linens. She hoped she didn't stain them because she felt tears wheeling in her eyes.

She wanted Aunty Ino. She wanted her mother's purple himation. She wanted the screaming screaming screaming to stop.

Nysa could feel her face getting sticky with tears. Aunty Ino would scold her for sure if she saw Nysa's face swollen and stained purple.

Maybe Learchus would come for her first, and he could get the medicine that could take the purple off her face. Learchus was practically a grown-up now, so he could go to the physician and ask for things, and they wouldn't tell Aunty Ino or Uncle King.

She felt and heard the wood of the cupboard groan.

There was a knock on the cabinet door and Nysa startled. Her family wouldn't knock.

"Is the Lady of the Cupboard available to talk?"

The voice sounded barley older than Learchus but was oddly muffled.

"G- go away!" Nysa shouted.

The cabinet door creaked open, but there was hardly any change from the darkness in the cupboard.

"Lady of the Cupboard, I apologize for intruding, but I thought you might like some fresh air?"

The voice belonged to a very pretty boy with light brown hair as curly as hers and shifting eyes of gray and green.

He was also floating.

While Ewa befriends some cool older girls,

Mr and Mrs Akoko get flirtatious in the kitchen

And keep going long into the night

This is all autonomous. I've noticed that Oorun's autonomous interactions toward Yana are all very wholesome and gentlemanly, while Yana favors the goosing and squeezing

Next moring is persimmon harvest time

And the plague is here. That's what you get for hospitality.

Soup time

Gotta love comfort soup.

23 for Imogen!!! Love the show btw :))))

Thank you!

Hmm, I think imogen’s got a lot of childhood memories she hasn’t forgotten. One I mentioned in a minisode was her first kiss with Lou. She was about 15. Krystle, her cousin, was giving her hell about not having kissed anyone yet. Especially to be in high school and she hasn’t even had a peck? Wild, to Krystle at least. Imogen’s pretty stoic for the most part. But she’s really sensitive. She takes a lot things to heart. So even though Krystle was just being- well, Krystle, it bothered her a lot. Oasis Springs was hard enough for her. She was quiet, so most people thought she was weird. And she was the furthest thing from from the beauty standard. To her, Krystle’s words just registered as “there’s something wrong with you”.

So, that summer her family went to Copperdale to visit Hattie, she told Lou. Not everything, but just that Krystle had been teasing her about it. And Lou being Lou, he just offered to do it. Not because he was into her, they had little to no interest in each other at the time. Lou just figured he could help. It was brief, only lasted for few seconds. There were no sparks though. It was anticlimactic. Imogen just said “Thanks.” Hattie had seen though and in Hattie’s mind, they were in love, clearly.

Portfolio advice, from a lead who hires Concept Artists

(This was originally a twitter thread I wrote before the site self imolated, hense it's strange structure.) I wrote this after a weekend of portfolio reviews - 1. Like a maths exam, please please show your working. I want to see thumbs options, mid options and of course a final design.

2. Arrange your portfolio, I don't want to bounce about between subject matter and pipeline. Your portfolio's narrative should be as strong as your work... 3. Please make worlds that excite the viewer, make them want to go in and explore them, explain to them the interesting parts of the town, or the way the character's hat unfolds. How will this draw the viewer in? 4. As I've said before the majority of your project work is explanatory not mood, make sure your portfolio contains explanatory work. Explained here -

5. A lot of beautiful post apocolyptic paintings, , but 80% of realistic games and film, we just give the environment artists photo ref, they are capable artists in their own right. Different work in stylised where you do need to create rules for how things can be translated. 6. Production art contains call out sheets, material references and flat graphics. This doesn't have to be your final image, but it should support it.

7. Design characters on a swatch(es) of the environment they will be viewed in. Not on white. I make swatch backgrounds from screenshots, it avoids assumptions that damage readability. 8. Reverse of this, put people in your environments, show me the scale.

9. It's not a deal breaker for a review, but if you intend to get a job, please show me your work on a screen larger than a smartphone (print outs probably the cheapest option with the best battery life). 10. Please have your contact details clearly visible, and by that I mean email address, I will not pass your social media contact on, I cannot input your form into my tracking system. EMAIL ADDRESS emblazoned and bake it in, sometimes recruiters do funky stuff to pdfs

11. Your portfolio will never feel done, not to you anyway. You will have learnt from your latest pieces and want to apply it to older work. But we know art is a journey. Send your portfolio anyway. I've been in the industry 10+ years and my portfolio is still not 'finished'. 12. If you are applying to an environment centric Concept Art position then please vary your times of day! Golden hour is cool but show me some happy sunny days, looming overcast days, what about at night? Vary your weather too! Sunny snowy day? Rainy Spring day? Stormy night?

13. If you are applying for a character centric Concept Art role then please ensure your portfolio shows a variety of body types and ethnicities. 14. Designing characters for games? Please show back views and feet (!) Many potfolios contain only front views. This is a problem because:

You haven't shown you are considering the design from all angles.

In many games rear view is the main view.

Stop cropping feet.

15. If you are entry / graduating and looking at Portfolios to compare content and standard of yr own work too, look at hired grad/junior artists as opposed to seniors Seniors and leads often have old or personal work in their portfolio which isnt representative of the day job. 16a. Show clearly the intended use case for your Concept Art. Mention the game type in the description. Are these player character designs for a 3rd person adventure game? Then more back views please. Bonus points for diagetic ways of showing health / equipment / role etc.

16b. Are these designs for an FPS? Then really the player view of the gun needs to sell the player style/ choices, in an FPS your weapons are almost your character. Are these world designs? What's the view distance? For an RTS your shapes need to read from above & a distance. 16c. The lack of clarification means I am judging the design in isolation, which both harms the design (you might be considering the backview of a char as the main adventure character.) Or an NPC, their waist up expressions may be important for conveying exposition and mechanics.

16d. Concept art is not separate from gameplay, great concept art serves the game team before it is a good illustration.

17. Play games. A variety of games. Think about them. IMO to be a good concept artist you need to understand the common language & references used by your peers. Also understand the principles and common language your audience are used to. FPS design rules are v.diff from RTS.

18. There are many skills that are needed in concept art, please show them. For example: Graphic design - logos, liveries, typographic use etc. VFX concepts - Abilities, Ambience, motion concepts. Architectural knowledge - How buildings are built! & more but I'm out of space :O
