television peaked with Once Upon a Time, like I can watch Anna from Frozen try to convince Snow White's Prince Charming to fight evil Warlord Little Bo Beep and he's like 'You don't know what you're talking about Anna from Frozen, my dad died when I was six because he was an alcoholic' and be like that's not even the most insane moment of this episode

Road Trip to Munich!

Today I am on the road in a two day road trip to München, Deutschland from Nice, France! Right now I am driving through Italy where we just passed by two major locations during the Second Italian Campaign in 1800 led by Napoleon.

We first passed Genoa, which as said last time was the city that was put under siege by the Austrians. Holding the city within the seige was the future Marshal Masséna, who was born in Nice. Also present at this seige was the future Marshal and French PM Jean-de-Dieu Soult, who would be injured in the leg and briefly taken as a prisoner of war by the Austrians and British. The siege of Genoa was extremely brutal, with those suffering from within the city resorting to cannibalism. The brutal conditions alongside Napoleon not being able to help relieve the French forced Masséna to eventually surrender. The events of Genoa apparently affected Soult to the point where he never led from the front of the army again.

The second location passed was the site of the Battle of Marengo which took place on June 14, 1800. I already detailed what happened at this battle here during the previous road trip post chain! I couldn’t get a direct photo of the battlefield itself unfortunately due to the direction the car was driving but this is the landscape surrounding the whole area, not to mention the area is probably where Desaix initially was before he sped his reinforcements towards Marengo to help Napoleon and the main army!

More reblogs will continue from here as I progress through this trip! :D

AAAAAAAAAAND SO sorry for the delay, comrades! Shockingly, one gets busy when you move across countries! 😮‍💨 Let’s continue where we left off!

Lake Garda

So as we drove up into Northern Italy, we first passed through the town of Brescia, which sits right next to the huge Lake Garda, also known as Benaco since in Ancient Rome, the Romans deified this lake as a God known as Benacus! From Brescia, we went round south the lake until Peschiera, where we turned northwards into Austria!

Now, did I get a picture of this huge, beautiful expanse of water? :D

HA, no. Unfortunately the way we were driving and the terrain itself made it near impossible to see the lake, so alas, here is a mere Google image 😔:

BUT Lake Garda was a significant setting throughout the earliest battles of the Revolutionary and Napoleonic Wars, especially the War of the First Coalition. Brescia itself was taken and retaken by and from the French and Austrian forces.

Many battles took place around and near Lake Garda. One in particular I do want to highlight however is…

Rivoli

THE PHOTOS DO NOT DO THESE MOUNTAINS JUSTICE Y’ALL 😤😤😤

I was not ready for how ACCURATE the painting depicting Napoleon’s victory at Rivoli would be compared to the area surrounding the real place! It’s astonishing! And it’s amazing trying to mentally compare the modern day to what it might have looked like on January 14, 1797.

The next part will talk about Austria and Germany! :DD sorry for the wait by the way! I’ve been way too busy than I’d like but there’s more to come hopefully! ♥️

About this blog

I am an aspirating comic book artist and I have created this blog as a way to show my art and storytelling skills, and possibly get attention to my works.

About my projects:

I have a few different WIP projects for comic books/graphic novels. I have made side blogs for all of them, since I am a control freak and want everything to be organized. You can follow whichever project interests you most! The tags for my art on this blog will be #vranelart and there will be tags for each project, which I will list at the end of their introduction.

Comrade Zimov’s Murder Mysteries

Spring, 1975. When sharp-witted Siberian investigator Alexander Zimov is reassigned to Moscow’s infamous "Petrovka 38" precinct, he expects hardened professionals—only to find a chaotic, lovable band of misfits who quickly become his eccentric chosen family. Armed with an uncompromising moral compass and a chronic inability to let bad logic go, Zimov gets himself into the capital's most tangled case. Pulling at the wrong threads reveals a cold conspiracy reaching the highest levels of Soviet power.

Let’s be a couple!

Starting her first year of university is stressful enough, but Violetta’s world flips upside down when she runs straight into her childhood best friend, Dan. Unapologetically headstrong (and a total hopeless romantic), Violetta immediately decides their surprise reunion is undeniable proof of fate. Naturally, absolute chaos ensues when a massive mutual misunderstanding leaves them both completely clueless about who actually likes whom. This charming, lighthearted rom-com comic explores whether fate really has a grand master plan, or if two stubborn dorks just need to come down from the clouds and talk to each other.

The legend of Snejin and Ognyan

As the sole heir to the Ice Tsardom, Snejin carries a terrifying secret: a curse that threatens to turn him into a bloodthirsty, uncontainable Zmei destined to ruin his father’s empire. His only salvation lies in the ancient magic of the Fire People, leading to a desperate, politically forged arranged marriage between the Ice Knyaz and the Fire Knyaginya. But when the grand plan completely unravels and unexpected sparks fly, the destiny of both kingdoms hangs in the balance.

If you want to support these projects, you can buy merch with the characters on my own website DrasCOOL or donate to me on my Ko-Fi - ko-fi.com/drascool.

Where to find me outside of Tumblr:

🎬 YouTube: @ DrasCOOL_bg — My main creative hub outside of Tumblr! I am very ambitious about growing the channel, so I would really appreciate it if you give it a chance and subscibe! Expect comic reviews, animatics & shorts, chaotic memes, and deep-dive interviews with amazing Bulgarian comic creators!

📸 Instagram: vranel_artbg — I will be honest, I am not as active on Instagram as I am here and on YouTube. But you can still find finished comic pages, art wips, and occasional life updates there.

📘 Facebook: drascool — I am not very active on Facebook either and also the Facebook page is fully in Bulgarian, so I use it mostly for local events and updates.

Thank you so much for reading! I really hope that I was able to interest you in my work and I hope to have you along for my journey.

Stay safe, stay brave and keep being creative!

Until next time!

Life Update!

So…I’m MOVING AGAIN YIPPEEEEE

For real though I am actually moving again, because life really threw a hard ball at me and said “You’re going to München or somewhere around there. 🫵” So yeah my parents and I are heading to Bayern in Deutschland! 🇩🇪

At the very least since I will be going on another long long drive, that gives me the opportunity to another history post series along the route, pointing out significant locations and rambling about what happened there like I did when driving from Lausanne to Nice! I’m VERY excited for that! :D

So get ready for me to talk history at you in about a week’s time, comrades! 🫵😤✨

[vranelartbg]

Stay safe, stay brave and keep being creative, Noor! 🫶 🧳 🍀

Have fun travelling and we are eagerly expecting the updates! 👀

[weepingnoor]

Well I MUST do my history road trip series now! FOR HANS MY MAN 😤♥️

And thank you so much Comrade Vranel! I will very much continue being creative 🥺🫶

This is what happened in your story during the Great Patriotic War, right Vranel? RIGHT??? :D

Characters alluded to belong to my friend @vranelartbg and their story @comradezimovsmurdermysteries! I love the story concept SO MUCH and the backstory behind the characters and plot is super interesting, I highly recommend checking them out RIGHT NOW! 🫵😤✨

The movie is of course the 1980 classic of American comedy, The Blues Brothers! It’s one of my favourite movies and it is SO FUNNY. Every line is a classic! I especially love the subplot (one of many subplots since the main characters piss off a whole lotta people throughout the film) with the aptly named ‘Illinois Nazis,’ which is what is being depicted here!

One day I might make a Blues Brothers inspired drawing with your characters 👀♥️

No context.

Just redraws of GTLive moments with Sonic AU designs I did back in 2020. And then a redraw of the redraws with Vranel and...Vranel?
