Continuation of No Honor amongst Magical Freaks

Chapter 13 of Part II of Paper Doll Veronika continues on Arktoons!

I didn't divide this chapter up as much when I posted it on my site, but I'm away from home again and might be late with the bonus art for the next chapter, so.

Happy Pentecost!

No Honor Amongst Magical Freaks

Bonus art for Chapter 13 of Part II of Paper Doll Veronika, which is now posted on Arktoons!

The episode is here.

The series is here.

With this picture I pushed further into pure papercut collage, and it brought home how much I'm a beginner at that. I need to take more time to learn the tricks of the medium: how to effectively evoke depth, for example. The water drops are cut from paper marbled with nail polish, a frustrating and stinky process, but I think some of them turned out pretty cool.

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

Map of the Forest

This is the first section of the map of Veronika's journey. I'm going to scan it again with a string or ribbon or something to show the path she took, and that version, as well as future sections of this map, will be posted only for subscribers to the Paper Doll Veronika Paper Doll Club! You can join here.

There are one-dollar-a-month and six-dollar-a-month memberships: for one dollar you get sketches and WIPs, a background gallery, and of course, paper dolls and outfits. For six dollars you get all that plus extras, like this complete map as it goes, Animal Stories short comics, a gallery from my ephemera collection, a character cameo, and more. If you enjoy the comic, please consider subscribing. Patterned papers and double-sided tape, not to mention web hosting, are not free!

But I did want this first section of the map to be visible for all, since I do love fantasy maps.
