It's been a while and all I can show you are dynamic sketches. I was moving to a new flat and the recent week was a quite hectic one... hope it gets normal after the xmas. :)
darktiste: Thank you for your input. I wish I could add some textures to those islands, but they're for nintnedo 3ds which has really not cool screen resolution and adding textures would make everything blurry. But don't worry, zoomed-in view on the bottom screen will have a nice grass texture.
ramalooke: Thank you for you feedback, could you please outline what you have in mind? Don't know if we're looking at the same thing. If not, outlining, would be a "breakthrough" moment for me. Like "ohh, now I see". Sorry for inconvenience, but probably you would really help to develop my "eye" in this way. :) Thank you in advance!
Yann.F: After a while the exercise becomes really boring but it's worth keeping for the sake of discipline. If you do it mindfully, you actually learn to control your hand very well. It's like... getting more input from your hand and eye to your brain. Don't know how to describe it even. After weeks of practice it becomes more and more automatic.
It's probably not a cool thing to show in your sketchbook. It takes time and all you can show to people are lines, curves and elipses. But after all it was a interesting "journey".
When it comes to islands, I'm now putting everything together, desigining the UIs, so not the coolest kind of job, but still needed.
Jackal: Thank you! They will be probably available on nintendo eshop in a few months.

It's a somewhat solitary existence, a bit like a lighthouse keeper throwing a beam out into the darkness, in faith that this action might help someone unseen.
