WIP Update – 23 Nov 14
I did some writing on CeleKing3 and gave the outline a little more meat while I was at it. I don’t quite have the entire story locked in yet, but I’m getting there. I got a bit of extra inspiration watching Curse of the Golden Flower (which isn’t really an accurate translation of the original and much cooler 满城尽带黄金甲). The Celestials are more trying to ape the Han Dynasty while the movie depicts period after the fall of the Tang Dynasty, but it’s more of a theme park mishmash anyway. A lot of the intrigue is exactly how I want to portray Celestial society and there was abundant visual inspiration to be had. I’m much more familiar with depictions of courtly life in Japan, so the costuming was a little surprising to me. Anyway, we’ll see if I stick with CeleKing a little while longer or if I switch over to Tico4. Stay tuned,
