Blossomvale is based on my playthrough of M. Kirin’s TTRPG ‘Iron Valley’ (which is pay-what-you-want!: https://mkirin.itch.io/iron-valley) This is the last page of Spring 1! I'm actually writing this post days in advance. We're about to go on holiday so I'm trying to queue up as much as possible for you guys. What is next?

Some exclusive content for my Patrons: Including a version of the Blossomvale Town Centre map with the houses marked up, and some behind-the-scenes for Spring 2.

Holiday sketches/photos (subject to change): I'm hoping to be able to fit in a sketchbook on my holiday, and will be releasing sketches exclusively or early to Patreon depending on how I feel for the day! I am visiting family and friends though, so will have to play this by ear.

Spring 2: I'll be back to work on my return from holiday, and hopefully have these comic pages out to you soon! As before, pages will be released a day early on Patreon, then posted to Tumblr.

My lowest tier on Patreon is £1 (though there are benefits for those who sign up for higher pledges!), if you enjoyed Blossomvale, consider supporting me on there?

Hope you enjoyed my return to comics!

If you did, share it with your friends!

[Image ID: a comic drawn in a cute, cartoony style.

This page shows three phone screens similar to the very first panel of the first page - they are profiles on BLOSSOMVALE COMMUNITY. Some text above the three phones reads 'Blossomvale - Spring, day 1, year 1, end' Phone 1: Profile for Mo, a brown bear. His profile picture shows him in a pink shirt, looking off to the right. It shows his name (Mo). It shows his pronouns as He/Him. It has a little leaf and '25' indicating that his birthday is Autumn 25. He has left his profile information mostly blank, just writing '.'. Under a section titled 'I CAN HELP WITH', there are three icons with writing underneath - a paintbrush labelled 'ART', a pot labelled 'COOKING', and a pen and pad of paper labelled 'ADMIN'.

Phone 2: Profile for Bug, a pink axolotl. Her profile picture shows her facing slightly to the left, but looking at the camera. She is wearing the same beanie as earlier, but is wearing a plaid shirt. The rest of the profile shows her name (Bug). It shows her pronouns as She/Her. It has a little sun and '8' indicating that her birthday is Summer 8. Her profile section reads: "My favourite game at the moment is Shaping Venus, come play it with me at Cup Half Full!". Under a section titled 'I CAN HELP WITH', there are three icons with writing underneath - a cup labelled 'COFFEE', a little purple demon emoji with ears labelled 'PRANKS', and a jigsaw puzzle piece labelled 'PUZZLES'.

Phone 3: Profile for Elm, a golden brown and white hamster. Her profile picture shows her leaning on their elbows on a brown table while she holds up a coffee mug. They are wearing a purple t-shirt and there is greenery in the background. It shows their name (Elm). It shows her pronouns as She/They. It has a little green leaf and '14' indicating that their birthday is Spring 14. Her profile section reads: "IF YOU ARE SICK OF LUCK CO. RUINING EVERYTHING SIGN MY PETITION: blssm/shrt1". Under a section titled 'I CAN HELP WITH', there are three icons with writing underneath - a cup labelled 'COFFEE', a cake labelled 'BAKING', and a placard sign with an exclamation mark labelled 'ACTIVISM'.

If I'm real about this, two of these things are mostly just about accents (maybe three) and how it is weird to hear things that I THOUGHT were a bit put on and emphasised for character are actually for real.

One day I'll get the hang of trousers VS pants too.

Also hello, here is a long, long overdue comic.

List of all Ontario NDP candidates in the Ontario election!

Hey Ontario! There is an election coming up on June 7th, 2018. According to the polls, the only party who has enough momentum to beat the Ontario PC’s run by Doug Ford is the Ontario NDP (in polls they’re either tied, in 1st place or in 2nd place in the polls). Doug Ford has no platform and has pledged to cut billions of dollars (which is going to lead to cuts to healthcare, education, etc) and he opposes things like a $15/hour minimum wage. I know people want change and are sick of the Liberals, but he’s not a good leader.

The Ontario NDP also have a really good election platform. So check it out:

https://www.ontariondp.ca/platform

So I’ve compiled a list of every electoral district/riding with a link to what NDP candidate is running. Each candidate name links to a short biography of the candidate, and a link to their website where you can follow them on social media, donate or volunteer with their campaign.

If you do not know your riding/electoral district, use this tool to find out:

https://www.elections.on.ca/en/voting-in-ontario/electoral-districts.html

I’ve listed all ridings/electoral districts in alphabetical order.

Please share this widely.

Those that have married in to Royal Families since 1800.

UK Edition

Camilla Parker Bowles

Born Camilla Shand in 1947 to Major Bruce Shand a retired British Army officer, later a wine merchant and Rosalind Cubitt, daughter of the 3rd Baron of Ashcombe

Alice Keppel, mistress of King Edward VII, the great-great-grandfather of Prince Charles, is the great-grandmother of Camilla.

She originally met Charles in 1970.

Before joining the Royal Family she was a secretary and decorator

She was married to Andrew Parker-Bowles from 1973 – 1995. They had 2 children, Tom, who is a food writer, and a daughter named Laura, an art curator. She also has five grandchildren. One of her grandchildren, Elizabeth Lopes, was a bridesmaid at the wedding of William and Kate.

Andrew Parker Bowles, dated Prince Charles’ sister, Princess Anne, in the early 1970 and has remained one of Anne’s closest friends.

Camilla’s ring is a platinum-set, emerald-cut diamond ring that previously belonged to the Queen Mother.

As Princess Diana is closely associated with ‘The Princess of Wales’ Camilla has chosen not to use that title. However, her full title is as follows: Her Royal Highness The Princess Charles Philip Arthur George, Princess of Wales, Duchess of Cornwall, Duchess of Rothesay, Countess of Chester, Countess of Carrick, Baroness of Renfrew, Lady of the Isles, Princess of Scotland, Dame Grand Cross of the Royal Victorian Order.

An avid hunter and rider. Camilla is an oil painter unlike her husband Charles who prefers watercolour. She also likes watching television, reading, fishing, walking in the countryside and gardening, another trait she shares with her husband.

Her favourite television show is The Killing. When she visited the set during a tour of Scandinavia, she seemed star struck by the actors.

Like her husband, the Duchess is a patron of the arts as well as many other charities.

Camilla is passionate about animal welfare. She has two “rescue dogs”. She adopted Beth, a Jack Russell in 2011, and Bluebell, also a Jack Russell, a year later from South London’s famous Battersea Dogs and Cats Home, where she is a frequent visitor.

Ethnohistoric sources suggest that, at the time of European contact, the coasts of most of the major islands of the Philippines were dotted with politically complex, socially stratified societies engaged in competitive long distance luxury goods trade interactions with China and other mainland Asian polities (e.g., Alcina 1688; Loarca 1582; Morga 1609; Plasencia 1589; San Buenaventura 1613; see also Jocano 1975; Keesing 1962; Scott 1979, 1980, 1983, 1984, 1991). These early to mid-second millennium A.D. Philippine societies appear to have been organized on the level of what general cultural evolutionary theories refer to as “chiefdoms” (e.g., Carneiro 1981; Earle 1987a; Johnson and Earle 1987; Service 1975) - i.e., in egalitarian societies characterized by a high degree of social stratification, hereditary political authority, and a highly centralized and specialized economy. According to Spanish documents and early ethnographic accounts, Philippine “chiefs” controlled the agricultural productivity of “commoners” through restrictive land tenure, mobilized surplus production through formalized tribute systems, and amassed luxury goods “wealth” through chiefly sponsorship of highly skilled artisans and through chiefly participation in foreign prestige goods trade. The accumulated “material fund of power” was used competitively by chiefs to enhance their only partially hereditary social ranking and to engage in the type of political alliance exchanges necessary to expand their political authority (see Junker 1990a, 1990b, 1993b for summaries of ethnohistoric evidence on prehispanic Philippine economies). While there are many historically unique aspects of these late prehistoric and historic complex Philippine societies, there are recognizable parallels in social, political and economic structure to “chiefdoms” in other regions of island Southeast Asia (e.g., Bellwood 1985), in Polynesia (e.g., Kirch 1984), in pre-Roman Europe (e.g., Renfrew and Shennan 1982) and elsewhere in the world (e.g., Feinman and Neitzal 1984; Creamer and Haas 1985).

Junker, Laura Lee. “Archaeological Excavations at the Late First Millennium and Early Second Millennium A.D. Settlement of Tanjay, Negros Oriental: Household Organization, Chiefly Production and Social Ranking.” Philippine Quarterly of Culture and Society, Vol. 21, No. 2 (June 1993), pp. 146-225. Print.

The excavations at Tanjay were aimed at: (1) defining the temporal and spatial parameters of the historically recorded chiefly coastal center, (2) documenting changes in the size and internal organization of the settlement over time as archaeological correlates of a changing prehistoric socio-political system, (3) examining the archaeological evidence for Tanjay’s expanding role in regional production, intra-regional exchange networks, and long-distance trade, and ultimately (4) tracing the development of Tanjay as a “case study” of the evolutionary processes in the emergence of small-scale Philippine chiefdoms. To pursue these objectives, a tri-partite strategy of field investigations was implemented: (1) systematic auger coring over an area of approximately 1.5 square kilometers in the vicinity of the present-day town of Tanjay, (2) test excavations at six locales within the study area, and (3) horizontally extensive excavations in two locales which appeared to be densely occupied areas of the prehistoric settlement with relatively lengthy prehistoric cultural sequences.

Before summarizing the archaeological finds at Tanjay for each of the three prehispanic cultural phases, we can examine the larger spatial patterns of site growth and expansion during Tanjay’s cultural sequence of occupation. The systematic auger coring program at Tanjay allowed mapping of the site’s spatial extent and probable boundaries in each of the cultural phases. As shown in Figs. 6, 7 and 8, and in Table 5, the coastal center expanded over a roughly thousand year period from a modest 5-7 hectare settlement in the Aguilar Phase (A.D. 500-1000) to an extensive 30-50 hectare settlement in the Osmena Phase (A.D. 1400-1600) occupying both sides of the Tanjay River and dominating the regional settlement system. Earthenware sherd densities (measured in grams of earthenware per cubic meter) in the excavated portion of the site, presented in Table 5, indicate not only growth in settlement size, but also an increase in the relative “intensity” of occupation - i.e., more habitation debris compacted over a smaller area. This may suggest the transformation from a moderately-sized coastal village with relatively dispersed households in the earliest phase of occupation, to a large and more densely-occupied town with a more clustered housing pattern and a wider range of debris-producing production activities. The period of most rapid settlement expansion and probable population growth appears to be the post 14th century Osmena Phase, when the settlement triples in size and manifests a more than two-fold increase in the density of pottery debris in midden and trash deposits.

Not surprisingly, given the rapid alluvial deposition at the Tanjay River mouth (Schwab 1983) and the probable importance of maritime trade in settlement location (Junker 1990a: 542-543), the site exhibits a “horizontal” as well as vertical stratigraphy. The earliest Aguilar Phase occupation was focused approximately one kilometer upstream from the 15th-16th century town, and the settlement expanded eastward over time with the progressively shifting coast (and, in fact, the 15th-16th century “coastal” town is located more than a kilometer from the present coast, with recent swamp and alluvial deposits intervening). The simultaneous consideration of “vertical11 and "horizontal” chronologies complicated excavation strategies, since the “densest” areas of 6th-10th century occupation do not correspond with the core area of 15th-16th century settlement and burial (see Micsic 1977 for a more general discussion of the problems of alluviation and “horizontal stratigraphy” at coastal Southeast Asian sites). Unfortunately, time and manpower constraints did not allow us to carry out simultaneous large-scale excavations in more than two locales, and our excavations in the heart of the 12th-16th century settlement yielded only limited archaeological data on the pre-12th century occupation. Thus, most of the discussion of household organization, status-related residential zonation and craft activities at the site will focus on these later phases of occupation.

As will be described in more detail in subsequent sections, the pile-house complexes in the most well-documented Osmena Phase are located at 10-20 meter intervals and are strung out linearly parallel to the Tanjay River. This suggests the presence of a relatively tightly clustered and densely-populated settlement, aligned east-west along the river banks, by the 15th-16th century. Sixteenth century Spanish documents, as well as 15th century and earlier Chinese texts, report densely settled chiefly coastal centers of a thousand or more inhabitants in the mid-second millennium Philippine lowlands, often linearly-arranged along the seashore or river banks, some of which were heavily fortified against ubiquitous raiding by rival maritime groups (e.g., Blair and Robertson 1903-09, Vol. 3: 102-103, 143, 170; Legaspi 1565: 196-216; 1570: 55; Loarca 1582: 81-151; see also Keesing 1962: 21, 53, 98-99, 102,149; Majul 1966: 145; Scott 1984: 73-75). While ethnohistoric information suggests that the maritime trading polity centered at Tanjay was on a significantly smaller-scale (not only in terms of geographic reach, but also with regard to socio-political complexity and regional political significance) than the 11th 16th century polities at Cebu, Manila, Butuan, Magindanao and Sulu, the size of the settlement and density of occupation indicates a substantial population (perhaps in the high hundreds). Since we were unable to excavate outside of the “core” of occupation and have documented site boundaries only through auger coring, the overall “structure” of Tanjay (i.e., variation in habitation densities and the spatial organization of production activities on the site) is at present unknown. However, in a later section, we will discuss the archaeological evidence for spatially-distinct “elite” and “commoner” residential zones in the chiefly center, based on comparisons of excavated pile-houses at the Osmena Park and Santiago Church locales. In addition, a subsequent section on the archaeological evidence for craft production will examine the implications of the observed spatial correspondence between “elite” residences and possible luxury good workshops.

It is highly likely that the settlement, like other coastal trading centers of this period, was fortified in some way at least by the 15th-16th century. The significant threat of warfare and coastal raiding, and the need for some type of defensive strategy, is manifested in the discovery of a “mass grave” in the 15th-16th century levels, comprised of at least nine violently massacred individuals accompanied by possible revenge raid related “trophy skulls” (see Junker 1990a: 604-619 and 1993a for a detailed analysis of these burials). However, further excavations in peripheral areas at Tanjay will be necessary to determine whether these inferred defensive facilities are indeed present at the site.

Through the Santiago (A.D. 1100-1400) and Osmena (A.D. 1400-1600) phases, the coastal center of Tanjay became increasingly regionally “primate” (i.e., many times larger and more internally complex than the nearest sized sites), until it reaches an estimated 30-50 hectares in size in the 15th-16th centuries (see Figs. 10 and 11). Numerous large secondary centers begin to emerge at strategic locales upriver from Tanjay in the Santiago Phase, and by the Osmena Phase, Tanjay becomes the apex of a three-tiered dendritic settlement hierarchy even more strongly resembling Bronson’s ideal settlement model (Fig. 12) for the Southeast Asia maritime trading polity. The immediately pre-contact Osmena Phase appears to be not only a period of dramatic change in terms of the complexity of the regional settlement system, but also a period of significant population growth in the Bais Region. As shown in Table 5, while mean settlement she (in hectares) increases steadily throughout the Bais Region sequence, there is a dramatic five-fold increase in the density of settlements in the 15th-16th centuries. In addition, formal spatial analyses have shown that, while upriver settlements in the Aguilar and Santiago phases are statistically “random” in their location along the Tanjay river, the larger upriver secondary centers of the Osmena Phase are evenly spaced at 2-4 kilometer intervals (Junker 1990a: 842-865, 1991). This locational pattern, commonly found in chiefdoms and states, is seen as maximizing transport efficiencies in a complex economy dependent on specialization, large-scale tribute mobilization and intra-regional trade (e.g., Johnson 1975; Steponaitis 1978).

In previous publications (Junker 1990a, 1990b, 1991, 1993b), it has been argued that this massive growth of the Bais Region settlement hierarchy marks the transition to a larger-scale and socio-politically more complex form of chiefdom with strongly centralized control of production, trade and tribute flow from the interior to the coast. It is further suggested that these internal transformations are related to increased inter-polity chiefly competition for control of the foreign luxury goods trade in the 15th-16th century Philippines.

Next Page > I’ve been playing M. Kirin’s TTRPG ‘Iron Valley’ (which is pay-what-you-want and about to get a HUGE new update: https://mkirin.itch.io/iron-valley) and I have been enjoying it so much that I’ve started making a comic based on the story I am making in it! So this is Page 1 of Blossomvale, Spring 1. Page 2 is already up for my Patrons. Get pages a day early at patreon.com/ReniDraws Thanks to @a-tired-space-ace and @theforestspiritplaysironvalley for creating image IDs for these, I’ve made some slight edits and will include them myself when I get Spring 2 out!

[Image ID: a comic drawn in a cute, cartoony style.

Panel 1: A fuzzy grey clawed hand holds a phone with a social media profile on screen. The screen is labelled “Blossomvale Community”. The profile picture shows the face of a koala with a swoop of teal hair. Her name is listed as “Gumi”, their pronouns as “she/they”, and her birthday as Summer 20. Gumi’s bio reads, “Hi!I am new to Blossomvale from the Big City! I’m staying with my friend Mo - we met through our favorite game!” At the bottom of the screen is a section labelled, “I can help with”, with the sections being rainbow magic, art, and mechanic, with little illustrations.

2. We see Gumi wearing a rainbow sweater and a backpack while carrying a suitcase. Gumi has their phone out and is standing in front of a bus station as the bus drives off in the background. A little notification reads, “Blossomvale profile confirmed!”. Gumi has an exclamation mark over their head as a speech bubble from off screen says 'GUMI!’

3. Gumi looks over to see a brown bear wearing a black hoodie. Gumi says, “MO!”

4. Gumi looks to have run to hug Mo so quickly that her suitcase is beginning to topple over. Gumi says, “It’s so good to finally meet you in person!”. Mo says, “You too! Welcome to Blossomvale!”. The word ‘Blossomvale’ is decorated with pink flowers

I recently interviewed Lucy from the 44 Shop on Lincoln’s Steep Hill for a new series of comics I’m about to start drawing. I need more people though for future comics! Are you or someone you know: ⭐ Based in Lincoln, UK ⭐ An independent business owner, someone who manages a significant location (eg. Castle, Cathedral), an independent artist, sports person, or some other significant person known for your presence in Lincoln? ⭐ Happy to have your likeness and words - whether they be about yourself/your story or words about a story from Lincoln’s history - reproduced in comic form? If you or a person you know match all these three things, I would love to talk! Drop me a message here on Tumblr or email me at laura (@) renfrews (.) com

Also here is me as one of the Lincoln Knights currently around town haha.

Laura Mercier has released a new colour in its Rouge Essential lipstick, whilst Sunday Riley and Lancôme have revamped the packaging on some of their cult products to be red. For those celebrating Chinese New Year, the colour red symbolizes good fortune and luck. Dyson is also releasing a new colourway in its hugely popular Supersonic hair dryer, and Charlotte Tilbury – who recently announced the expansion of her Pillow Talk collection to be more inclusive – has released limited edition packaging for cult Magic Cream.
