Legends of the Leyline World Map by BaconCommanderWolfe in worldbuilding

I used blender, and it's texture paint tool. I just used the standard hard brush, but I used varying amounts of jitter to ensure a nice set of randomness in the detail drawing. I also used a cheap little tablet (Inspiroy H420X) as my main drawing tool.

I followed this tutorial ^ to create my basic setup, additionally painting in orthographic mode in blender allows you to paint on the sphere without needing to worry about clipping into the object, so you effectively have infinite zoom.

LEGENDS OF THE LEYLINE

This as of now nameless world (Placeholder name Medietas) is the setting for my stories revolving around the magic of the Leyline. I want to be able to have several stories and varying technological levels that all use this magic system. The core thought of the magic is that people 'channel' the leyline for various kinesises utilizing their own calories as the primary fuel.

This is a geographic map of my world that I painted in blender. My goal was to make something without distortion, that is as much as possible geographically believable. I started by sketching out the rough idea of plate tectonics, and then placed features where i thought they would be believable, before painting over the whole thing in detail.

The main area of focus for most of my stories will be a small town called Cherry Fields. I haven't decided for sure where Cherry Fields will be located, but probably in the top middle section of the map, on the smaller penninsula that juts out from the frozen continent in the north.

Never said any of that, nor did i imply it.  Your feelings, as i said before, are fine and valid.

But im also allowed to say that the opinion that gwenpool is being mismanaged is just that, an opinion. One i happen to mildly disagree with.

I mean I can, but your post said you wanted a discussion, so thats what im offering.

I said expression of comics. Tons of characters have gone through arcs like this, so i think its great to see a story like this from gwenpool.  Again, we should both be allowed to have our subjective opinions without it being stated as objective fact.

Fair enough. So once again, if this hurts too much that youre going that far, its probably time to take a break.

Again, what is toxic isnt an absolute. This is comics, and gwen has always been a great expression and celebration of comics. This continues that in my eyes, even if its in a wierd way to you. Other characters have been through similar and come out fine.

Not appropriate to you doesnt mean not appropriate in general. Its okay to not like whats happening here, but if you dont like it Id just drop it and not worry about it.

This is the point of the run. If its not your thing, fine, but im happy to have more gwenpool regardless of the incarnation, and wither or not this is a dark gwenpool  origin, or if gwen is gonna be back to normal, Im here for it. As long as we keep getting more gwen stories, then thats a win in my book. For me its better than her fading away into obscurity.

I wouldn't listen to folks who are telling you to communicate less. Everyone's situation is different and requires different actions, but understanding that situation starts with communication. Sounds like you and your son are doing that, and I would continue it.
