Ask Starfrost

Warm welcome to you all! I'm Starfrost, sleighmaster of Bifrost. Updates every weekend and on the occasional surprise weekday! This blog is rated PG-13 for future involvement of some violence.

ALWAYS BEAUTIFUL <3 Love to see people drawing reindeer, especially when I had a hand in the design! I love your art so much darling ;;

Starfrost: At least we’re located on the less-populated side of the city.

Kaelon: Yeah, less lives in peril from Thatcher’s energy.

Happy Two Years Starfrost!

To celebrate Starfrost reaching two years, I’m opening a brand new blog!

I know I know! Pitchforks down, please! I’ve known for a long time that i do better with working at least two stories or books at a time, and I realized that there was another blog story I wanted to tell. I will never give up on Starfrost- I’ve had her story for well over 7 years now, she’s not going anywhere! My universe is just growing a little bit. c: So without further ado...

In @dunmoor-camhanaich, meet siblings Shaggy, Champ, and Hedgewitch, whose parents disappeared on the wild and mysterious Dunmoor nearly seven years ago. Along with their cousin Thistle, they’re trying to navigate the dangerous and beautiful paths of living alongside Fae and uncover the truth about their losses. If you have a love for moors, mythology and Fae, this may just be the perfect blog for you! c: 

Story updates will begin in August, until then I will be posting general art of the characters/story, answering little character asks with sketches, and posting any landscape studies I do for the story! Thank you so much for all of your support!

Had bit of a gap between doctor appointments the other day, so decided to try doing some doodles of other people’s characters from memory (phone ran out of battery so I couldn’t look up references- I had however probably been looking at some of them not tooo long ago, didn’t even attempt some of the characters I wanted to do.)

Think they turned out fairly recognizable, though the mane/hairstyles are almost certainly at least a little bit off! (And at least one accessory that isn’t normally there materialized out of thin air whooops)

Not tagging anybody so people can make guesses if they want (not that it’d be too hard, it’d be more of a challenge if I actually tried some of the ones I wasn’t fully prepared for)

Nighttime reblog!

[techmomma]

OH I SEE A TB. And a… Starfrost, and a Dolly, and a Shai Ni, and your friend Chorny’s character, and I think a Coffeetalk and a Pearl! I LOVE THESE, THESE ARE DARLING.

[askstarfrost]

HEY! HEY! It’s my cute gal! thank you for drawing Starfrost Jade! It means so much you could draw her so well from memory! :D

[jade-mod]

Happy birthday @askstarfrost !  Finished the sketch from Bronycon of three of your reindeer (Vaylor, Cinna, and Fyedkha).  (set out to draw all the reindeer but then I realized there were 15 of them whoops).  Glad I picked those three cause they’ve got a good variety of fur and eye colors and antler shapes!

Bonus drawing of Starfrost since I’d already finished sketching it when I wasn’t sure if you’d be able to find the reindeer sketches or not!

[askstarfrost]

SCREAM!!! THIS IS SO FANTASTIC AHHHHH!!!!

This is beautiful! Jade you’ve grown so much as an artist even in the past year since your last generous gift and seeing the sketches colored and the gorgeous panel of Starfrost is perfect!!! I’ve got all the warm fuzzies! <3 Thank you so much! Also I think this might be the first art I’ve gotten of members of the caribou crew!!! :D

[askstarfrost]

This is a response to this post. As soon as I saw it I knew I had to draw something (while working on my new style) because I CANNOT HANDLE SAD NEON DARLING PLEASE YOU AND YOUR WINGS ARE BEAUTIFUL INSIDE AND OUT ;; So I drew tall snow horse giving some awkwardly delivered words of encouragement to gorgeous purple birb horse.

Starfrost wants to go hide in a snowdrift now.

I know we’re all pretty down rn so here, have some cute pics of svalbard reindeer

it’s the smallest subspecies of reindeer on the planet and it loves you

the svalbard reindeer is also the northernmost herbivore in the world, and during winter they survive an average of −16°C (3°F) weather

look at those small fluffy ears and kind eyes, the reindeer is cheering you all on to stay strong in these trying times 

just like the arctic winter, this too shall pass

the svaldbard reindeer proves that even under the most extreme of circumstances, life finds a way. so please, please keep on fighting

[freddieandersen]

this baby doesn’t see full sunrise for like six months out of the year and it’s still kickin

[askscribbly]

@askstarfrost CHECK OUT THE CUTIE OMG

[askstarfrost]

EEEEEE I love Svalbard reindeer, I have some Svalbard OCs who will be coming soon. ;; Thank you for thinking of me, @askscribbly , you darling beautiful person! <3

[askstarfrost]

Here’s one without the window glass, so you can see Reifling’s colors better! Also, here’s a few notes I have about Reifling so far!

- Reifling is a nocturnal faery and typically goes into a hibernating-like state during the warm months.

- Reifling actually has pretty poor eyesight, for unknown reasons. She can see shapes and colors, but not details, which many find surprising given her life’s purpose.

-Reifling has a hard time handling interactions with more than one individual at a time. She appears elegant and ethereal, but is actually quite shy as well.

Another egg hatched! This one will be taken care of by the darling @askstarfrost!

[askstarfrost]

FAERIESSSSSS!

Featuring @theamishpirate​‘s Kindleheart and my Reifling! These two might be polar opposites, but they are friends! Warm and cold!

Both designs were made by the amazing @asktechnowizard​!

Reifling translates to “little frost one”. I love her SO MUCH. She is the faery of autumn frost, harbringer of snow. She spreads the frost and chills lakes and ponds. (This description is thanks to Steph!)

[askstarfrost]

I’m posting these guys here to prove I am still around and drawing haha, I used these designs as a warmup for the next post! These are a pair of reindeer mages I’ve been wanting to draw for awhile, the first is a mage who channels magic through abalone shells and the second uses arctic poppies.

These two are a gift for @kajeaynart, because she did some absolutely amazing designs for @ask-ember-quill‘s cutie mark sale and I felt like she deserved something in return! Both Ember and Kaj are darling people so be sure to check them out, and if you can, please support Ember as her family recently lost their house to a fire.

[seawitchsteph]

Two more commissions! This time from @llimus for their dear friend, and @askstarfrost!

[askstarfrost]

*breathes in*

aaaaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!! Starfrost looks so fantastic (as Hans from Frozen) I just can’t take it. I love the gold against her dark blue coat and that eyeshadow is AMAZINGGGG.  Thank you so much Steph I love her so much *sobs* ;A; Everyone should bow down to Steph’s amazing villain designs!

[askstarfrost]

Starfrost: He’s always eager to show off his newest tricks... hope this one doesn’t end in disaster!

((YAY I HAVE RETURNED))

[askdarkwraith]

Official welcome post!

Please do ask away <3 Your questions are eagerly awaited…

[askstarfrost]

HEY Y’ALL. While I work on my next set of super exciting updates (super exciting for me at least), please PLEASE check out my best friend’s brand new pony blog, Ask Wraith! Wraith is a hella fine pony and there’s a lot going on to his world that I know y’all would love! <3

[starshale]

Some badges for my best friends/roommates @askstarfrost and @askthehenchponies!!! What wonderful ponies to draw <3 anyway I’m running around with them at Bronycon all weekend with them so say hi if you spot these babies running around!

[askstarfrost]

Better pics by my friend of the badges! Top is my sister's sona Lost Wonder. c:

[askstarfrost]

My best friend made me this amazing badge of Starfrost eeeee!

[askstarfrost]

For those asking, the artist behind this beautiful badge (as well as others) is @ask-jiffy-post! She has a few pony blogs that are pretty new but she’s going to start posting more! (Because I am kicking her into high gear and she can’t escape me because we live together)

[zenaquaria]

Some of that goofing off I was doing to shake off the rust of not drawing very much lately~ I’ve been playing a lot of Rimworld when I’m not faffing about with D&D stuff. I thought it would be fun to mimic the style of the game sprites, which the game calls “pawns”. So I also took it as an opportunity to do a little fanart to test said pawns! I’m likely going to do more; I just want to share what I currently have! c:

Horses borrowed:  @a-realm-in-shadows‘s Percival @askstarfrost‘s Starfrost @askclarysage‘s Clary Sage

[askstarfrost]

*SCREECHES* ZENNNNNNNN you precious creature. I love this so much. Look at my cute pawn Starfrost. She is precious. She is perfect. You seriously kill me with kindness Zen you are an incredible friend and artist. ;A;
