Paper Doll Veronika update

 


Paper Doll Veronika has updated; Chapter 11 of Part II, "Christmas of Fire I", has begun!

The update starts here.

The part begins here.

The story begins here.

You can see here the redressing of a previous background for another season--that was fun! I stayed up till two to get this ready because I really want this chapter, which occurs at Christmas, to be posted during Christmas, since it's so lucky the opportunity arose for it to be timed thus.

It updates on Fridays on my site and Sundays on Arktoons. (My site is ahead).

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.

Abandoned Halls

 

Prints available

Bonus art for Chapter 3 of Part II of Paper Doll Veronika, which is now posted on Arktoons! You can also read it on my own website. (I recommend my site for PC and Arktoons for mobile.)

Because of the timing, that this would post on Christmas, I think it became much better and more atmospheric than it would have otherwise been. I also wanted to suggest an other story, where she is, perhaps, a ghost returning.

Merry Christmas!

Baker's Dozen 9 - criminal but not killer

 


I am still continuing the series of 13 Ace Attorney fanart prompts I started for the Inktober of 2020. The ninth theme is criminal-but-not-killer, and I chose Enoch Drebber. (Spoilers follow) Though, he is morally culpable for murder.

I really really liked him. Maybe it's because he looks like Vaati. Maybe it's because he's like a member of Steam-Powered Giraffe but without the embrace of abhorrent mental illness. Maybe it's because he's the random chance turning point that caused a chain reaction that leads to basically everything, even to the point of, if he hadn't just happened to be in the graveyard that night, Phoenix Wright would probably never have existed, let alone become a lawyer. And maybe it's because in the original Sherlock Holmes story, he had seven wives.

Here is the prompt list.

Christmas cards

 I have some greeting cards available on Society6, including these designs which are suitable for Christmas:


Not Christmas exactly, but near


I'm not sure whether orders made now would arrive by Christmas Day, but I support sending Christmas cards during the actual twelve days of Christmas, December 25 through January 6. That's what I'm going to do!

This piece is quite different from how I originally planned: I had wanted to paint the upper part, then print out a copy of it and cut it into ripply pieces and stick them upside down on top of a graduated wash for the water in the lower part. But my printer ran out of ink, so I just watercolored the whole thing, with the figure of Julide separately painted on tracing paper.
