Here we are here we go

Workflow:

So this week, finishing all patreon reward and then the CYOA. Note the latest patreon reward is the beach one, multiple char and i wanna add colour sooo, might just take a bit more time and drop it mid august to work a bit on the CYOA, cause i wanna draw big sexy demon tongue in sexy alien throat... am sure i'm not the only one here who want it done! =D
That said my goal right now is finishing most of the late stuff before mid august, that done forcus on the august reward things and be done with things late for september so i can start fresh and take comms again =D
Note also, i know i'm late and i owe things... but, i might take a day or two there and there just to draw stuff for me.
I feel quite guilty when i'm not working on stuff for other, but... sometimes there's just the need to draw stuff for me. Like atm, so i'll try to feel less guilt about it, and do some there and there. If not, i feel i'll just drive me crazy over time X).
Anyway, that's all for that part of the job

Boardgames:
Out of nowhere.. but you know, i'm a huge boardgames fan/nerd.
Spending time sitting with friend, a beer on the hand, or some juice/soda. Playin while discuting, just chilling with the buddies. it's one of those great moment i like to spend my time on.
On the games i have many were gift actually. Lot of my friends know my taste and more than once for birthdays they took on them to gift me one =)
Also bought some, and one of them is one of my favorite:
Terraforming Mars.
The game is quite straighforward. You're in charge of a company (like big big corpo) that were mandated by the UN to terraform mars. Your purpose is to achieve this with other companies (the other players) over several generation of projects.
The interesting point of the game is you got to heat the planet, drop at least liquid water on 1/9 of the surface, and high the oxygen level in atmosphere to 12% min. Once it's done the game end at the end of the current generation. And there we count the point and see who win.
You got point by participating in the terraformation (and also subvention from the UN for doing so) but also by some projects (like introducing wild life, or building cities instead of terraforme the planet itself). You can also be a dick and do project that would fuck up your rivals (oh no, i dropped a comet into the atmosphere to heat it and add water, but it crashed on the forest you were growing.. sad for all those threes)
So the game is a bit of a race gamesomehow, each action to win point shorten the game, and force you to do more action to get more point and so shorten the game even more etc etc.
And there's also, even with all the bitchin, this sort of comon goal to Terraform a planet. Beautifull game, really interesting. Made by an astrophysic teacher, so it's a bit sci fi but many elements are linked to fact or things we know or think about terraforming things.
Anyway, really fun, if you can find it, play it!
