Gallery Maintenance and Folder Restructure
2 years ago
Just a journal explaining the upkeep I have been doing on my profile today (don't know if anyone had noticed), made some changes which hopefully will help organize things
First off, I moved some older artworks to scraps as they are kind of out of date or the backstories within them need some polishing and updating after sitting for a long time, I have been molding my story over the past few years and have thing more concrete and set in stone and some things there need to be updated to the main canon or they are just now not inline with the way things are currently, things that have been fully cut I may move to my ALT account Fangenclaw in the future so if they disappear from here, they will be found there afterwards
Then with the folders themselves, I removed (well renamed, will explain in a bit) the 'Commission Artworks' folder since basically everything I post is basically a commission I get with extras (like the stories) added by me, I credit every artist that makes these masterpieces and it just seamed redundant to have a folder like that where basically everything just automatically falls into due to almost everything (well except the small stuff I drew but I have not done that in a while and I do have another folder for that stuff) being a commission
Lastly with the folder structure, I decided to organize them into groups to help make some things clearer and more understanding, hopefully, they are as follows:
Fangenclaw (Main Canon): basically everything that has to do with the main canon of my world and story witch is overly called Fangenclaw after Ion's Hunter group name, seamed like a fitting title, there are two folders there that are at the centre of everything, the ZER0 Plane folder (which is the renamed 'commission Artworks' folder) which houses stuff that is part of the main place or plane of the story world (which is why it is called ZER0), this is where almost everything so far has taken place (I removed things from that folder that didn't fit in there anymore), where Ion, Flint, Zephyr and the like to you know already exist in and where the current present/future that is kind of already know resides in. However due to a choice in my large CYOA story project, 'Chronicles of Talons, Fangs and Claws' or CoTFaC for short, there is a path or a choice in there that can lead to a different future for the boys which has it's own consequences that play in latter on which I call the 'Looking Glass Plane' or LGP for short, so things after CoTFaC would be slightly different but everything before it is mostly the same, same goes with most parts of CoTFaC which reside in both planes. These folders will hopefully help show what stuff happens in both planes or that are directly only related to their respective plane as they both intertwine down in the future of the main canon
Epithets of the World: basically folders that help show aspects of the world of Fangenclaw, artworks in those folders can also be a part of other folders as well but stuff in these highlight elements of the world or themes
Days of the Past: basically stuff that relates to or happens in Ion's childhood involving him or any of his friends or other characters of the world, here is where seeing which main canon folders artworks belong to can help with thigs as a lot of the stuff here belongs in both planes of existence, again basically everything up to and including parts of CoTFaC (which is basically 2/3rds of the childhood era) before they branch off into their own arcs, so if an artwork in these folders is assigned to both main canon folders, then it happens in both (just depending on which lens you want to see it through depends on which Ion you see as he is a bit different in the LGP due to a characteristic which I hope helps distinguish the two of them a bit but keeps the main parts of the story all the same)
Stories: simple, artworks that have stories in them and categorized accordingly
Trauma Centre: basically artworks that have a medical theme, hospital, surgery, etc. and stuff related to Ion's serious injury and some future stuff that will relate to another character.....
References/Resources: the reference sheets, stuff related to character information (which some need updating, will get on that eventually) and just stuff that help focus on my characters in general to get commission done, this one is more for me to find the things I need for commission but also has some background information
MISC: basically miscellaneous stuff, like my cyberpunk AU (as that world or plane of existence is fully separate from the main canon worlds, just has the same characters in it but sometimes different priorities and characteristics), random stuff and my artwork (which again I don't have a lot of)
I hope doing this bit of housekeep will help organize things for the future and hep people who wish to find out more things about my world hep them do that better. Thank you to all who decide to read this update and have a good day ^^
