The Hong Kong Jockey Club - where tradition and speed race round the bend
On Hong Kong's neon-soaked nights, a heart beats at a gallop: the Jockey Club, a colossal paradox since 1884 - both a temple of sport and a benefactor of the city. Here, wealth and ritual merge when sleek horses shoot across the turf like liquid gold.
The crowd goes wild, bets whisper of luck and loss, but there is more behind the frenzy: schools, hospitals, culture - financed by the race of the hooves. A high-stakes game in which even the city wins.

Personally, I really loved doing the fanart, maybe it did not have a good color contrast like others, but, I will improve in the following
this drawing was an excellent challenge for me, I also liked coloring the background, something that in most of my drawings, I have never done. Simple and simple I like to do it, and maybe even another I will get to do I hope you like it, and thanks for the appreciation

Hong Kong. Whew. Yesterday’s post was something. Wasn’t it? I try not to do that… often. Anyway. We can’t go to Lithuania. The southern border is around 20 miles from Horodok, or Grodno, as they say in the local language — Belorussian. Why does that matter? My paternal great grandparents lived and worked there.

Food doesn't taste good anymore, every room is too silent or too loud, and even waking up feeling rested seems like a distant memory.
I miss the french toast from the bakery I grew up in. I miss my mom's food. I miss my dog. I miss my boyfriend.
Why does it all feel so distant even though it's just an hour away?

What ethnicity should Republic City represent?
Thinking back to Republic City..... If it's a fusion of Earth Kingdom and Fire Nation Which represent China and Japan respectively.
Then maybe Republic City should represent a country that has both Chinese and Japanese influences. Maybe Korea or Hong Kong. Though I'm not sure if you could consider those countries a fusion a China and Japan.
Anyone from there have an opinion?
