I’m aiming for a launch in January, but comics are a shitton of work, so no promises. Thank you again, I’ll do my best with it 🫶

Personally I love fantasy but I am helplessly bored by the “vaguely pseudo medieval European actually just a D&D clone” variety of it, so there is actually not a single white character in this 😂

Thank you for your kind words! I will admit to generously tracing instruments + hand gestures while playing them from photos because hands are difficult enough to draw as it is and I don’t play an instrument myself, so I wouldn’t be able to draw correct violin playing gestures from imagination.

thank you! The actual comic will not look like *that* because then a single chapter would take me years, but I still yearn for proper illustrations sometimes.

I’ll make it publicly available alongside the first chapter whenever I get that done; for now, I’m just happy that I could finally got the ball rolling.

Today I celebrate “I finished drawing the prologue of my comic”

digital artwork of a young woman with her violin looking pretty. The title says “Song of the Stars”. no fictional characters were harmed without their consent in the making of this artwork

Hello hey, #PortfolioDay! I do mostly character splash illustration, and have been worming back into comics on the side-- and I love imbuing them all with a sort of... rustic nostalgia from using good ol pencils!

well at least a good one 😂

Fran (comms closed!) @toradh.bsky.social · 4d

what’s the last one you listened to? I thought Voices of Fire (the last one with Sly as a full member) had its moments but still marked the beginning of the decline, sadly.
(I say decline but I am aware that it’s probably just a matter of taste)
