Art and webcomics

While dealing with burnout, I was experimenting with a “17th century woodcut” style. Turned my tests into a short comic strip.

"Knave of Rings"

Lucas encounters a strange man in the local eatery... who has a proposition for exceptional lads such as he.

Another little window into the life and the thoughts of one Lucas Traveller.

Another oneshot comic from my yet unnamed 17th century fantasy setting.

This one concerns the hobgoblins/ house-elves, an unusual symbiotic relationship between elfkin and humans. Normally invisible to mortal eyes, this troupe did not anticipate an impish halfblood being given free rein of the house.

Hallows-Eve, 1653. Alice is on her way to an underground Halloween party. She just needs to wait for her escort, a boy she knows as Lucas. She's rather pleased with her costume and Lucas... well... he's always in costume.

I had a last minute idea for a oneshot comic featuring a couple of characters I made a while back.

It's a little half baked, but I'm happy I got it out on time...

Short progress update. Aiming for release next Wednesday. Holiday rush for Thanksgiving might delay it further though.

Ulfserk progress has somewhat flatlined lately. I’m gonna try and pick it back up. Shooting for a release in 2 weeks, but we’ll see.

An art post for both #mermay2022 and #mothersday! What are the odds?

Little flashback from last years' mermay pics. My mammalian merfolk couple, back when Mappiui was with child for the first time. Her husband, Taru-Taii bids her farewell for the day. He won't be far.

Have some VERY belated Christmas art! (I could make it a Christmas/Newyear thing) I drew the winter elves, Holly and Mistletoe, again this year. I think I want it to be a thing for me. This year they are looking after Maple, the human child. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year everyone! Also, TOOT!

Had a fun idea while drawing Luca fanart. All the sea-monsters have the classic "fin-ears. "But instead, what if they had gill-flap "ears" like salamanders?

[athelscop]

Made another Luca fanart! Fish-boys go aswimmin.

“Which knife do I get?”

[athelscop]

Got Disney+ and now I have a Luca fixation. :) So I drew him!

Kometa vs. Phalanx

Originally made this as sort of a promo/concept art for the fight scene in my Starchild Comic. Didn’t actually finish it until the fight was over though.

[athelscop]

On a far off alien world, a Termatoid mounts his steed. Is he a sentry? Is he riding to join his unit for a scouting mission? Whatever his queen demands, he obeys. This fellow has a battle-siphon mounted on his back and helmet. It can spray poison, acid, or a flaming liquid. He has a lance for when his siphon runs dry. The spike on his helmet also serves as a weapon. The Rider's reference was a termite worker. Those aren’t supposed to have eyes normally, but who knows? Perhaps these termatoids do? Perhaps he is a young prince who hasn’t grown his wings?

The mount is a giant pill-millipede.

Mermay 2021

And this year’s entry for mermay! A few months late on tumblr, forgive me. 

Taru-Taii has retreated into his man-cave from a stressful day. Little Kaiuayliu ventures after him, hoping to cheer him up.

Mermay 2020

Every summer the Doggerfolk swim into the estuaries in Doggerland and settle down after the long spring migration. Mappiui and her son Kaiuayliu enjoy the sheltered waters together while her husband, Taru-Taii is away hunting.

I didn’t see my old mermay art posted here. Did I really forget? Well here it is now! Piece from 2020
