Mountain Dusk - Veronika and Stade

 

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

The latest episode is here.

The series is here.

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!

Fanart contest winners!

 

So at the time of the end of the contest there were only two entries, and both were in the Adult (age 14 and up) category. So because they’re both excellent and I had planned to award three prizes, they both win! Here are larger images of the art:

I really love them! Congratulations to Sarah and Audrey! I will email regarding the prizes.

As an aside, although by my reckoning there should be three hours left for the book crowdfund, the site says two hours. Maybe I miscounted? Anyway, if you want one, better hurry!

Five hours remain!

 

Five hours remain for the Paper Doll Veronika Part I - Forest book crowdfund, so if you would like a book and haven't yet reserved one, you better get going!

And two hours remain for the fanart contest, by which you can potentially alternatively win a copy of the book! (Presently there are only two entries, so even though they're in the same category, since I was planning on giving three prizes, if there aren't any more, they will both be winners. It's a ripe chance!)

Red thread for the Journey

 

This is the map of the stretch of Veronika's journey contained in Part I - Forest, of which we're embarking on a journey to make printed books! The red thread shows where she went.

Paper Doll Veronika to return to the airwaves

 

Tomorrow, Sunday, February 11, at 6 p.m. United States Central time, I'll be on the Superversive SciFi livestream to talk about Paper Doll Veronika and its book crowdfund campaign, among other lively things I'm sure.

Grotto of the Redemption postcards

Today's bonus during the Paper Doll Veronika book crowdfund campaign, more antique postcards. These are of an incredible but little-known landmark in Iowa, an massive, elaborate construction of cement and stones, many of them semiprecious, portraying the life, passion, death and resurrection of Our Lord. I have been there and it is amazing.

And these postcards were printed in 1935, when the grotto was still being built. Now there is even more to it.

Melkior descendants

 

It's been a long time since I added to the Paper Doll Veronika character profiles, and the book crowdfund is a good occasion to do so!

The battle comes crashing to conclusion on Arktoons!
