Do you want me to include a section with basic geological theory (plate formation and destruction, collision types, plate matchups etc.) from my, artistic, understanding?

The script is at 28 pages right now and I'm wondering wether I should cut this out as I don't know how true my statements are...

Hey! I'm alive!

I'm actually working on a new longform tutorial and sibling shorts series. Starting with the basics of simplified tectonics, discussing the formation of landsmasses as I understand it, (**NOT A GEOLOGIST**) from an artistic perspectiv.

In this tutorial we're going to be using Procreate, Photoshop, Wilbur, Blender and for those fortunate enough to own a license -GAEA.

I'm currently looking for questions to answer. What questions do you have about fantasy mapmaking?

Portrait illustrations for my latest project, a pocket atlas of my world written as if the places and people are real.

Do you prefer them with or without color?

I'm happy to say that l'm finally having time to creating tutorials for planet scale mapmaking.
Though I'm not sure how I should format the videos, help me out here!

Happy holidays!

Been working frantically to get a world together, and recording/saving each step of the way. Currently showing ya’ll the 8th retry of this. Made using procreate which I’ve taken a deep dive in, new brushes and features.

Still waiting for a license to continue work on this beaut, as well as the videos to follow. Can barely wait to share more! 🌏🌎🌍

Currently, involuntarily on vacation, or rather, in between work and thus without an Adobe license... I tried following my tutorial using Procreate and GIMP, and I'm quite happy with the results. My interest in worldbuilding and maps has come back in full force.

I am currently planning out a new world and thinking of making some revisions to my tutorials, as well as creating speedpaints of the global map and regional maps.

I am also considering continuing with some worldbuilding videos, similar to what Monstergarden has put out over the years, but of course, having them revolve around my world.

If this sounds interesting to anyone, I'd love to hear your thoughts and get some early responses. 🌍🎨🙌
