The markets are down, but Builders sure aren't! Communities in the Builder ecosystem are as active as ever, with plenty of exciting news to share this week. Gnars are busy doing their thing, Purple is gearing up for FarCon, and Yellow Collective is hosting 'Random Character' Rounds, but that's just what's happening this week. From looming events to fresh initiatives, there's no shortage of momentum as Builders continue to push the space forward.

Yellow Collective
Brett on Warpcast
Random Character Rounds x /yellow: Week 6 Character Prompt: Sunny is an artist who is still trying to find what they love to make. They are in their 20s, a little bit shorter than most of their friends, and always wears their square yellow glasses. Their clothing style is a bit…unique I guess you could say. Whenever they go somewhere, people are usually looking twice. Sunny has been experimenting with paintings and murals, sculptures from clay, stone, or found items, making short films and writing music. When they create their artwork, they get lost in the world within their head and even become part of the art, literally and figuratively. Sunny can change colors like a chameleon when they paint or transform into action figure while recording stop-motion movies or become a puppet when putting on a play. Please decide what Sunny looks like today and draw them in your style. https://rounds.wtf/character-design/random-character-rounds-x-yellow-collective-week-6-1
