As a reminder, the Commonwealth has no executive, just permanent ministries with secretaries raised as required for specific political problems. They have a direct democracy for the unicameral legislative body, known as the mandatory ecclesia (mandatory as in "mandate")

This park is near where Tzipora lives, in the Seispri hills of southern Oslola (Iceland) bsky.app/profile/mill...

It has been a LOT of work over a long period of time, but I'm happy with how it's turned out. You can visit the map here: millmint.net/factbook/maps/

Putting Tzipora in random scenes as a prop. Why? To evoke whimsy? Nostalgia? Why not some fat guy Your base instinct reveals a lot about you as an illustrator; women/girls are the base commodity artists use to move their product Need to draw more fat guys

So it's not quite a dress code and not quite a uniform, and is heavily accessorised. The point is not to represent a certain school but to represent education, which is why teachers and undergraduates wear it too.

The dorm layout is kind of crazy? But I like the concept. I think it would need stress testing before it goes into production. Not Tzipora by the way, just a short Sri Lankan woman with her lanky hydroengineer friend. I think despite her energy she is a brilliant mathematician.

Also I know there's no blister for the rear undercarriage at the moment, I'm working on a technical drawing and I just wanted to sketch how they'd look in livery.

I suppose that's more of a GMT pilot's watch, but I'm sure a flight attendant could find it useful. Concept uniform for domestic flights, I think they'd have some sort of cape overseas. Ignore the plane with the circle wing I don't know what I'm doing.

I wanted to make it milk tea since there are soft drinks that have dairy in them, but I refrained in this version because the image of pure rich sparkling tea was too strong

The end goal should be homes that are useful and comfortable while also showing restraint, since that is what housing beyond the commodity means to me. The abolition of the commodity I think is central to the Commonwealth way of living, beyond even moneylessness.

I have given them a pseudo-cantilever here, inspired by Hong Kong. I should emphasise that I am not trying to indulge nostalgia for its own sake. I am interested in developing a modern, somewhat timeless, dignified baseline for housing all people in the Commonwealth.

Tzipora lives in an old-fashioned low rise apartment block, which is nearly a hundred years old by the time of the setting. Its appearance and layout give me great satisfaction because, despite its austere period styling, I think its layout is good and full of life.

Here, though, the items are mostly kitsch references to Chinese clothing (or "Cathay" as they call it). Jiefangxie (military sneakers); Jiang's dress; an army tunic; upturned collars -- all ripped up and reassembled in the pure internationalist tradition.

Sorry for slow posts, I'm travelling around China atm. Mao's fourth wife, Jiang Qing, attempted to create a dress that would serve as a female equivalent of the "Mao suit." It didn't go well and has been almost lost to history. I've recreated it with Lin Zhi here

Proper flags would use gold thread, not like a shiny plastic disc or something. So it would still be a cloth flag. The gold hoist on the flag is not technically a part of the design -- all Commonwealth republics (including the federal flag) have a shiny gold hoist as a sort of unifying motif.
