Conditions, Myths and Cards

You ever have that wtf have I done moment? How about several of those in a short period? Welcome to my world.

I’m pleased to say nothing is broken. Creativity is flowing.

But I have butterflies the size of chickens in my gut because now I am also a TCG designer.

Don’t Panic


As I’ve been building this sustainable streetwear world, I have been thinking about art.

Everything you see on garment or on a physical product, I have dawn myself. In a world increasingly filled with AI-generated imagery, authenticity matters.

Like everyone else, I use AI while developing ideas. The Canis is still young. A couple of months old, give or take. Honestly, I've completely lost track of time

The cards on the site are version one mock-ups. The final thing I know will take longer, I am not even sure if people care enough to want them, so a lot remains to be seen.

I’ve been panicking about TCG’s because, I’d like our cards to be really good.

I've spent enough time around things like D&D and trading card games to know how much work goes into them. I'm not trying to dethrone Pokémon, Magic and D&D. Far from it. If anything, I'm increasingly humbled by the ridiculous amount of effort that goes into building these worlds and systems.

It’s okay, like I said, don’t panic. But I am not going to try sell you version one mock-ups just so you know. Like I said, we’ll do them properly. The same goes for the comics.

Writing The Canis


Everything is completely intertwined with The Canis, I move when it moves.

From writing the mythology to character development, it genuinely has been unfolding.
Partly through my own reverse engineering genius, and partly through completely strange moments of insight.
Like at midnight last night, suddenly thinking, we have a sun eater, we might as well have a moon eater.

Don’t ask, I have absolutely no idea what that is. (Please not another worm)
Anyway.

Okay, bye


So much to do.
