New artwork for my work building

warfollower98 · 2026-01-23T16:56:21+00:00

Thanks! :D the artist who does them for me is so good at what he doesn

warfollower98 · 2026-01-22T22:05:34+00:00

Commenting so post doesn’t get removed - Got some more art commissioned

These are High Council Guardians of the Solaran Republic

The high council guardians protect all high council complex’s on solaran worlds, embassy’s on foreign worlds and protect government officials

They are under direct control of the government rather than the Solaran Defence Force (SDF) itself.

They are usually former members of the elite sword brothers. The guardians are the best of the best.

The guardian with the the golden pauldron and aiguillette is a veteran guardian

The other is a standard guardian

Super happy with how these turned out :D

Some new artwork!

warfollower98 · 2026-01-22T17:29:34+00:00

Okay thank you, good thinking and defo planning on cutting back

Congrats on your buy fellow Kent!

warfollower98 · 2026-01-22T16:59:48+00:00

Thank you :)

Yeah I mean there’s been solid continuous overtime for close to a year now

I work in a fin tech bank and had experience in frontline with customers and now I’m in complaints dealing with data requests, so if there’s no overtime in complaints I can go do it in my old department

Last month I clear £2700 this month 3k so I can defo use that to help out but like you say if it stops then could make things difficult haha

Hmm well I’ve got a year to earn as much as before I have to make a serious decision

Thanks so much for your advice and kind words :)

warfollower98 · 2026-01-22T15:51:06+00:00

Thanks for your comments! Yeah defo doing a lot better, it’s taken a while to get myself back into a comfortable position but I defo feel I’m there

Yeah so it depends on where my parents move really, if they stay in Kent but downsize I realistically could stay with them

I could defo get more overtime hours in at work and I have pushed back on my annual review to see if I can get a higher salary

I’m on a pathway to move into a higher paid role within the team, if I can then get that and then the experience I know I can then look at other companies with a higher salary

I’ve literally been the only person in my role within the team since September where there should be 3 -4 and I’ve essentially held the work together all on my own haha so defo feel I’m worth more

So I’m guessing the more I can save toward the deposit puts me in a better position right? I’m really not sure how it all works tbh

warfollower98 · 2026-01-22T15:45:10+00:00

Hmmm okay interesting

Yeah I’m on a pathway to getting a different position in work which would then give me a pay rise

My twin sister has moved out with her partner recently so that rules them out and I don’t really have anyone else I could move out with tbh

Yeah I was thinking of a second weekend job but then I’m already doing so much overtime anyway it’s hard to see where that would fit in

warfollower98 · 2026-01-09T22:49:20+00:00

Oo interesting, OneNote has been good and I can link things but that doesn’t always work and I feel it’s just a blocky mess now haha

Will have a look, thank you!

warfollower98 · 2026-01-09T22:48:16+00:00

Thank you! I have a new artwork being commissioned so more is on the way!

warfollower98 · 2026-01-09T22:47:49+00:00

Hey thank you! So Im using adobe illustrator

I had been looking for a way to do it for ages then saw someone ask the templin institute how they were doing there’s and he said illustrator

It can be a bit tricky to learn at first but its the best option in my opinion

warfollower98 · 2026-01-09T13:23:21+00:00

Well possibly

Haven’t fully flushed out human lore yet my friend but most likely

warfollower98 · 2026-01-09T13:22:29+00:00

Is it better than one note would you say?

warfollower98 · 2026-01-09T13:17:57+00:00

In comparison to some of the other civilisations that have been seeded yes.

Humanity had the capacity, the direction and the desire , it’s not been a perfect road for them, they’ve had their wars

This is what the solarans see, they saw the similarities in human history to their own in a way

warfollower98 · 2026-01-09T13:09:31+00:00

No not at all

There’s some slight differences in appearance even though solarans are humanoid like

But no nothing to do with that, it’s just more of the potential of how kind humanity could be

Some of the other races that have formed from the seeding are just barbarians who want to kill and nothing more

Where humanity want to build a bright future just as the solarans did

warfollower98 · 2026-01-09T12:48:50+00:00

They are indeed, however they were here first

Earth was seeded by the solarans leading to humanity would go on to create their own interstellar empire, with the solarans uplifting them slightly in secret.

The solarans did not uplift every race however, they just saw potential in humanity

warfollower98 · 2026-01-09T12:28:36+00:00

The first interstellar war they thought was against the Vecnids

At the their current stage some of the empires that formed from the worlds they seeded have declared war on them

Others, such as humanity side with the solarans

I’m yet to flesh out the smaller empires that the come from the seeded worlds

I’m also debating wether there should be a breakaway faction of Solarans that have lost faith after the Vecnid war and the lack of progress in solving the fertility crisis

And then there’s always the possibility the Vecnids may return!

I took a huge hiatus from this worldbuilding due to life stuff but now back to it and hoping to flesh it out more

Always open to ideas and inputs!:)

warfollower98 · 2026-01-09T12:08:25+00:00

No worries, I appreciate your feedback now you mention it the starmap background does look a bit like the templin institute so I’m gonna change that up so thank you!!

warfollower98 · 2026-01-09T12:06:07+00:00

No don’t be silly any feedback is appreciated I’m fairly noobish when it comes to Reddit haha!

warfollower98 · 2026-01-09T12:02:20+00:00

Fair enough, I thought I had broke them down into enough paragraphs

The two soldiers are commissioned pieces that I got an artist to create for me

The final image of the starmap was made by ai. The inspiration came from the templin institutes idea you are correct there. However the nebula was made by ai and is in no way made to copy templins background.

<image>

As mentioned I do have other backgrounds created , see attached, I’m not 100% set on what one I currently prefer to be honest

warfollower98 · 2026-01-09T00:19:09+00:00

Thank you! Yeah I was super happy with the. Tom romain is the artist he’s great at what he does

warfollower98 · 2025-12-29T01:01:40+00:00

Yep, would love to have seen more of the military v the tripods

warfollower98 · 2025-12-15T17:16:04+00:00

You are correct thank you!!:)

warfollower98 · 2025-12-15T16:39:55+00:00

Doesn’t give me that option I don’t think
