I Have Creative Block

Not open for commission. Back in 2024 to hyperfixate on Arcane and Life is Strange. Also, Mass Effect and Tomb Raider Survivor Timeline.

I'm between two fancomic ideas I want to work on. Are people more interested in seeing: 1. Post explosion missing time scenes 2. AU where Vi is also at the showdown with Ambessa

S2E6

S2E9 AU

Voting ended onDec 30, 2024

And the results. A little closer than I was expecting, but both offer a lot of whump so win-win in my book. Please be patient as time to work on this will depend on life schedule.

finally have some energy to work on this but i’m also slow cause i hate drawing Vi’s gloves

[emeraldemiree]

Was trying to work on page 4 of my Arcane project but am still in a creative rut and hated every line I was drawing. Blaming work having me do a writing project.

Decided to just focus on mindless sketching and ended up with my mental image of Aliz Astra and Rebecca Charity from The Book of Blood and Roses by Annie Summerlee. I realize there’s an illustrated version of the series but I read the book before seeing what they looked like. Mainly I imagined Aliz with long hair.

Title: The Haunting of Kiramman Manor

Word count: 52,000

Vi's life was a self-fulfilling tragedy of misfortune after misfortune. She lost her family as a child. She was thrown into Stillwater for more years than she could count. It didn't seem like good luck even knew her name. So when her hands found a discarded newspaper advertising a desperate need for a manor groundskeeper, Vi figured she could handle whatever strings were attached to it. But no one ever mentioned it was haunted. The eerie, isolated home was a blight among the townsfolk of Holdrum, filled with mysteries and oddities that kept Vi awake in the depths of the night. Perhaps more is going on at the Kiramman Manor; especially with its lone occupant–the daughter of the recently deceased Cassandra Kiramman.

I’m having one of those days where I forget how to draw. Drawing from a photo ref but this took 3 procreate tries to get looking somewhat decent and I’m still not happy with it. And it took forever when it was supposed to be a quick study.

Hoping this doesn’t persist cause my confidence is shook.

My wife got me into Station 19 and we’ve been bingeing it for weeks trying to get through it all so we can cancel our Hulu. There isn’t enough Carina x Maya plot imo so now I have a new fixation eating away at my brain.

Also, the amount of sleeping with coworkers AT work this show has is wild.

It's a long time coming...but it's almost here! My next graphic novel is available for pre-order!

Compelling and unforgettable, this is a year in the post-apocalyptic life of Spoke, a nonverbal cargo bicycle courier who uses ASL and serves her tight-knit surrounding communities in a world where all power sources were neutralized long ago by a mysterious force. Spoke journeys through life alone in this reverted pre-industrial landscape, but a chance connection made with a stranger suddenly makes her feel not so alone anymore.

Please consider pre-ordering :)

Page 3

Tagging with Maddie Nolen cause I guess she’s technically still on this page.

[emeraldemiree]

Hoping I can get most of my day job stuff done before the holidays so I can just sit around and draw this new page.

[emeraldemiree]

Well that took me almost a year to finish Page 2. Hopefully this isn’t the trend or else I only have (mental math) 60 more pages in me, haha.

There’s a reason I say I have creative block.

[emeraldemiree]

Was rewatching Ghost on Netflix this evening. Felt mildly inspired.

Fortiche just posted "behind-the-scenes" / blooper images for Arcane [1] [2]

[emeraldemiree]

Finally replaced the screen protector on my iPad from a glass one to paperlike. Testing out the control I now have with ink brushes on Procreate. Big improvement.

[emeraldemiree]

Quick doodle mid-day.

Fell off that inktober run pretty quick due to travel and illness. Pretty happy to have gone at least 10 or 11 days 😀
