The Astoundingly Complex Ancient Indian Stepwells 

Ancient Indian stepwells captured by Victoria S. Lautman. Rudimentary stepwells first appeared in India between the 2nd and 4th centuries A.D., born of necessity in a capricious climate zone bone-dry for much of the year followed by torrential monsoon rains for many weeks. It was essential to guarantee a year-round water-supply for drinking, bathing, irrigation and washing, particularly in the arid states of Gujarat (where they’re called vavs) and Rajasthan (where they’rebaoli, baori, or bawdi) where the water table could be inconveniently buried ten-stories or more underground. Over the centuries, stepwell construction evolved so that by the 11th century they were astoundingly complex feats of engineering, architecture, and art.

Some Thoughts on Story

By Dean DeBlois

I was asked to write a short essay regarding storytelling [for the Artella audience], and while it’s flattering to think that anyone would want to hear what I have to say on the subject, it also comes with a disclaimer. These are ideas and techniques that resonate with me. They, by no means, represent laws of storytelling.

Excellent german publication from the artist https://tamasaburo.de/ (German)
Ich habe eben “Das Liberi-Projekt” von Tamasaburo gekauft und auf dem Heimweg verschlungen! Ich muss nur schnell loswerden, dass ich extrem angetan davon bin und es ganz dringend weiterempfehlen möchte!

No End - Post-Apocalyptic Webcomic

Do you like webcomics? Do you like post-apocalyptic stories? Do you like a diverse cast and queer romances? 

Then No End is the comic for you!

No End is a soap opera about group of people trying to survive and build lives for themselves in a cold post-apocalyptic world ravaged by undead. It is not a zombie story per se: the narrative is focused more on the characters and their relationships with the undead just providing some suspense every once in a while. It is also not your run of the mill zombie survival story: the apocalypse happened a long time ago and the characters have lived in this dystopic wasteland for all their lives and have never known what the world was before.

The story is focused on an ensemble cast, some of which will be at times more in the spotlight than others: the story starts as Modra, a privileged and clueless young man who has never been outside the zone he has lived his whole life in and his friend Benny run into another group of travelers at an old gas station. This trio, Cotton and the siblings Jenn and Wight seem mysterious, and soon enough Modra and Benny are being pulled into a series of misfortunes (and maybe fortunes as well!) with their new traveling companions. Later on they will meet a lot of new people and the cast will keep growing!

No End digs deep in to the post-apocalyptic lifestyle, and the world of the comic is well thought-out, rich and colorful! The characters are no worse either with lots of thought put into them, their motivations and development!

We will visit cities…

…Stay out in the cold and find shelter wherever we can…

And then there are occasional horror elements.

While we promise you dramatic turns and bone-chilling moments…

…We won’t shy away from humor either!

The comic’s a little light on the romance aspect still, but that will change, come the end of current chapter!

So if we caught your interest, give No End a chance! The comic is currently on its fifth chapter and consists of over 250 pages (all of it in full color!), updating every Sunday with a schedule of 2-5 pages a week. We also do chapter extras like worldbuilding notes and Ask the Cast specials where readers have the chance to ask their favorite characters questions!

No End on Tapastic / No End on SmackJeeves 

The comic’s “fandom” is mostly centered here on our Tumblr, where we aim to answer any and all questions readers throw our way, post illustrations and other stuff and share things our amazing readers have created! You can also find us on Facebook and DeviantArt

Thank you for reading and taking a look, and please, if you enjoyed reading the comic, let your friends know, share the comic on the social media of your choice (reblogging this post would be the best! The more visibility we get, the better!), and spread the word! Just signal boosting would be much appreciated too! We also still have a lot to learn about making a comic, so we’re open to feedback as well! We would be eternally grateful.

Thank you!

They’re all here! I took it upon myself to create an illustration of a Mythological creature or character for every letter of the alphabet, trying to span across a multitude of cultures and creature-types. Another thing I wanted to accomplish with this project was to find some the more unusual and/or obscure creatures that don’t get as much representation in artwork. Individual Tumblr Posts with said creatures’ descriptions are below.

Again, I’ll be making this into a small run of books as a way to test the waters. If there’s more demand for a larger run, I’ll definitely be looking into it!
