Bakt / Atticus | 20s | hobby artist & the 17th-18thC theatre admirer

[latbak]

Greetings! This is an art blog where I share my works.

For the most part, I post work featuring original characters, although fan art may occasionally sneak in.

Mainly SFW, but mature content (e.g., nudity, disturbing imagery, blood & gore) may occur, so I'd like it to be noted.

Currently, I mostly draw characters under the tag les folies théâtrales, featuring a duo of a playwright & composer in the 18th century setting.

Characters tagged under backwards and owlclaws are shared between sczawr and me; we are co-authors and develop these settings together.

Sometimes I also reblog works from my friends here!

Feel welcome to drop an ask or a message if you are interested in anything! If some of my posts might need additional tw/cw tags—let me know, I’ll gladly add them.

“A long journey”

There is also a small comic under the cut ↓

These two are very amusing, and their relationship is rather amusing as well. Mr. Seward is quite fond of observation, and often, when he cannot work or enjoy leisure in the comfort of his home, his activities include examining and assessing his own surroundings—M. de Poulin, in turn, frequently becomes the object of this scrutiny. (And how could he not, being so flamboyant?) And although Mr. Seward is a decent man, he sometimes allows himself to make a remark that is completely out of place; M. de Poulin, of course, welcomes such surprises, though they also may throw him off balance.

[ The transcripts are in the image descriptions. I wanted their lines to sound somewhat period-appropriate, but there's still a lot to learn.]
