Paper Doll Veronika update

 

Paper Doll Veronika has updated; Chapter 1 of Part III - Ocean, "Downhill Tales", has begun!

The part begins here.

The story begins here.

It updates on Fridays on my site and Sundays on Arktoons. I recommend using bookmarking or the "Save your place" gadget on my site, even once you catch up, because the site starts at the beginning and updates are several pages.

Veronika Bosch, who's never left her father's estate, has to go on a journey when envious animals kick her out. Half collage, half puppetry, it's the traditional media equivalent of an elaborate sprite comic.

Sugar Easter eggs

 

Happy third week of  Easter! Last year, for the first time I made a panoramic sugar egg. It has a chocolate cross inside, which surprisingly has held up fairly well.

This year I made one based on the egg featured in the 1939 children's book The Country Bunny and the Little Gold Shoes by DuBose Heyward, illustrated by Marjorie Hack.

As you can see

So she peeked inside through the little hole on one end and she saw a beautiful scene with a sleigh, and a lake with people skating on the ice.

I have only one person skating on the ice, but I'm quite proud of the ice itself, which is hard candy.

It's wonderfully fortuitous that this last portion of Part II ended up being the one-hundredth episode on Arktoons, for which I received jolly congratulations! Now there will be a break, until April 26th on my site, April 28th on Arktoons, while I work on the printed book of Part I and prepare for Part III.

Thank you everyone for reading and your support!

Bonus art for Chapter 26 of Part II of Paper Doll Veronika, which is now being posted on Arktoons!

You can also read it on my own website. (I recommend my site for PC and Arktoons for mobile.)

This is actually unfinished–the four other figures were drawn, but cutting out a cellophane shadow takes longer than one might think, so this is what was ready for the chapter’s Arktoons debut.

The background is an unfinished watercolor by my grandmother--she gave me a bunch of them.

Thank you for a resoundingly successful crowdfund!

 

The crowdfund for a paper printed book of Paper Doll Veronika Part I – Forest ended about an hour ago, and it was a resounding success! Thirty backers contributed a total of two-thousand, two-hundred and two dollars, reserving twenty-nine copies of the book!

The site says it takes five days to process the money, and then I really get to work! Thank you so much, everyone!
