Advice from APH France

Hello darlings! Radio shows are passé so I've decided to embrace technology. I offer advice to the lost and lovelorn that I've learned over my many (many) years of existence. Ask box is open! Updates Sundays.

So I heard it’s Mermay…meet Merperson France!

He lives in the Seine so his coloring is less bright than saltwater merfolk. All the better to blend in with the river and sneak up on tasty fish.

Likes: Sunning himself, collecting shiny things for his hair, and swimming across the Channel to scare the carp (lol) out of certain neighbors.

Dislikes: Getting caught in fishing lines, people who dump trash in the river, getting his hair tangled because he put too many shiny things in it.

A western fantasy. There’s been a murder in a small town of the old west, and all evidence points to a vampire. Sheriff Alfred Jones, a centaur, must find the perpetrator before they kill again, with help from Deputy Matthew Williams, Ivan the undertaker, and Francis the innkeeper.

This is the first of two stories I wrote for Hetabang 2020! My partner, @dragoncatzombie, and I both love monsters so we traded stories/art with the same mythological characters. This is the one I wrote first, inspired by their concept drawings of America/Alfred as a centaur sheriff. Check out their amazing art here!

Francis, a naga, tries to escape a mythological zoo alongside centaurs Alfred and Matthew. Surely this plan will turn out better than the last twelve. 

This is the second of two stories I wrote for Hetabang 2020! My partner, @dragoncatzombie, and I both love monsters so we traded stories/art with the same mythological characters. This story is based on the amazing (and hilarious) artwork by DragonCatZombie. Give them all the love on tumblr.

1/2 Wooo, finished my art for the hetabang event! My partner @dearaphfrance and I decided to make two different pieces each based on the same mythological characters. She wrote the two wonderful fanfics and I did the art.

First story: Trapped in a mythological zoo, Francis and his centaur friends devise a plan to grab the zoo keepers keys and escape to the wild.

[twoscarypandas]

I love this so much, especially the expressions. Arthur looks SO done with them.

2/2 My second art piece for the hetabang event! Posted separately because of mildly triggering content. Just wanna be overly safe.

My partner @dearaphfrance (or twoscarypandas) and I decided to make two different pieces each based on the same mythological characters. She wrote the two wonderful fanfics and I did the art.

Second story: Brother centaur cops Al and Matt try to solve a murder mystery in their small town in the west. Their suspect? A monster with fangs...

[twoscarypandas]

You’re amazing! The color is especially impressive; it’s so hard to do that kind of lighting. Plus, they all make such excellent monsters :D

Final post for Hetabang 2020! Naga!France to go with my stories and @dragoncatzombie‘s art.

Everyone liked my virtual Zoom background, so I decided to blend in a little more with my colleagues.

First photo edited for color/contrast and background, but otherwise it’s all makeup. I got a little more creative with the editing in the others, obviously haha.

When things go wrong, don’t lose your head.

Give it to a friend for safekeeping. Preferably one with a sewing kit.

Aizawa costest - need to adjust the wig a little more and I’m hoping to use hair instead of just makeup for the beard, but otherwise it worked pretty well! I’m hoping to make his goggles too. 

[dearaphfrance]

Different fandom, but he is dooone! 

There’s a gory USJ version too on my makeup blog, ‘cause I can’t control myself when there’s an opportunity to add blood.

If I am the garden, you are the sun. All other light us but a reflection of your loveliness.
