The above is a photo of the collage; here's a scan:
The scan has better focus, but the photo shows more of the piece and has better sense of the depth.

Paper Doll Veronika has updated; Chapter 12 of Part III, "Creeping things without number", has begun!
It updates on Fridays on my site, Sundays on Arktoons,
and Mondays on Substack
(Substack is at a much earlier point in the comic). 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.
Chapter 10 of Part III of Paper Doll Veronika concludes on Arktoons!
That's an Army Colt single action. This is important.

I have just started a Substack for Paper Doll Veronika and am posting it there from the beginning. And since Substack has options for free and paid posts, I will also put there the bonus material that is already up on the Paper Doll Veronika Subscribestar.
This material includes:
Sketches and WIPs of character designs and chapter cover art
High-resolution ink outlines suitable for printing and coloring
High-res printable paper dolls and outfits
Full map of Veronika's world and journey
Uncluttered backgrounds from the comic
Scans of antique ephemera from my collections
Animal Stories comics (one so far)
Videos of music from the comic played on Celtic harp (one so far)
Studio tour video (planned)
It'll be the same stuff in both places so don't get a paid subscription to both, unless you really want to give me money!
Another thing for which to give me money is art originals. I've added a few more pieces to the shop, in time for Christmas shopping!

Pierre's Story of the Sea episode 2
Pierre's Story of the Sea episode 3

Paper Doll Veronika has updated; Chapter 8 of Part III, "Uotiolo's Story of the Sea", is posted!
The comic is taking a break until October 4th, mainly for family reasons, but if possible I also want to build up a buffer, of course, and to:1. Make much progress on formatting the print book, maybe even finish;
2. Make a bigger bonus thing for Doll Club members than the usual: either the next Animal Story comic, the next section of the Map, or a behind-the-scenes video;
3. Make a Paper Doll Veronika Substack.
The last can be used both as another platform for the comic itself and the Paper Doll Club bonus content, via its unpaid-and-paid subscription tiers. Other platforms are important because WordPress is becoming more and more error-ridden and I am reluctantly considering if it may be wise to take down my site. If I do, I’m also looking at Neocities and hoping that if I go there, I can learn enough HTML to use it rather than WordPress for my own site should I go independent again. But this is all highly speculative at this point.
Thank you for reading and see you in October!

I'm endeavoring to make more of my photo-collages strictly of photos taken by me, and this is such a one. The castle and the background water and sky were taken in Ireland, the rocks and foreground water on the North Shore of Lake Superior, and the man is my father at my sister's wedding, with some color adjustments to the beard.
