Celestial Jubilee - an Amanda the Adventurer AU

This is the cover for an AU comic I'm working on! I do plan on making an introduction later but I can't really find the words for it now and I wanted to post this so! here it is

I also have a timelapse for it this one! which made clip studio crash a ton so I probably wont be doing that again- but it's fun to watch

Celestial Jubilee AU Introduction

keep in mind this AU is in the early stages of development and things are subject to change! also please disregard any typos- I didn't save the files for these and would have to remake the entire card from scratch to fix any T0T

some doodles and some early concepting for veil Rebecca or maybe Veilbecca as a shorthand. I'm thinking she likes to wear warm/winter clothing both because of this post and also as a sort of way to symbolize that she is willing to go outside under any conditions. like as a response to being told 'there's a blizzard outside, stay in here where it's "warm and safe". forever'

Rebecca's appearance is always changing in the veil, a mix of her grasping at her own consciousness and memories and the influence of surrounding soul fragments causes this. her visible age is constantly shifting and her hairstyle and clothes change around. I also want to portray this idea by changing how I render her between chapters or major moments, but that detail only works digitally

(I didn't have any references on hand when drawing these so some things will be off)

I made some logo concept sketches for my Celestial Jubilee AU(the one with balaamarcus)

And also a lil Amanda doodle

Some character exploration sketches for Balaamarcus

I decided the three heads only appear when he's intensely emotional like when wooly's 3 heads appear in the game.

Still figuring out how I want to attach the face to the body agh

Marcus is very unhinged in this AU btw

In Celestial Jubilee I like to use astronomical bodies as symbolism!

the sun/sunlight represents truth, awareness, and self

the moon represents lies, concealment, and denial

the earth represents reality and people seeking truth

and the light of the moon shining onto earth represents truth being distorted and subdued and wouldn't you know it, Amanda the Adventurer canonically takes place during a new moon! when the moon isn't reflecting any light onto the earth

also while checking to see if there was anything interesting happening in the sky on that day, I noticed these happen later in the week!(occulting in this context is when a celestial body covers another celestial body from view)

some concept art for a few Hameln/Curtain characters, had their designs floating in my head I figured I'd try to get some of it onto paper
