Inking page 93

Inking is by far my favourite step of the comic making process, I wish I could just ink forever!

Next page coming along nicely, hopefully I will get it done next week!

Sneaky snake business

 Another sneaky peek of the #othercomic I’m doing! I really love inking it like this, a nice change of pace from Paths ^-^
I’ll also try to get back into posting a bit more often this year! I promise! To try!

The Road goes ever ever on

Here's an invitation I drew for my mother's retirement party! She requested an invitation with the lyrics from The Road goes Ever on from Tolkien's the Hobbit, with a picture to complement it. I was only too happy to oblige for it was mum who read me the entire Lord of the rings out loud when I was a child and I am forever grateful for that. It made me who I am basically xD
So this was a really happy commission to do!
Now I hope November lets me continue the comic, too x'D

14th page - into the dark we go

Despite everything, I managed to finish another page, and FINALLY we get some pointy ears! I had to live without them for like... 10 pages or something, whew.

Read the latest page here

p.s. I will have something exciting to share with you all for Ropecon, soon~~~

Progress

Despite the best efforts of a certain Hinder-Homer, the seventh page is on its way! Expect it to pop up after easter!
 Well, I'll write another blog entry when it happens anyway xD

More comic!

Fifth page of Paths of Avarnight is up!

Read it here!
Or
Read from the beginning!

Next one will probably take a bit longer, since I will be tabling at Kauhucon next weekend! If you happen to be in Helsinki, please do come say hi  The event is free to enter, too

Comic updates

Greetings from the comic lair! I caught a hideous cold, which has hindered my progress a bit, but I’m sure we will see at least a little something at Tampere Kuplii 2019
 I will be there the whole weekend this time and can be found on table number 5 ^^
Homer has luckily been there for me throughout this trying time, mainly sleeping on top of me.

Tiny comic update

Inking, inking, inkinggg, moss is the best. But yeah, this takes time xD
And I realise my earlier post about free time might've been a bit misleading :-----D I do have two jobs at the moment so I do not indeed draw every day, which also slows me down a bit! I started to get nervous thinking people will expect more from me 💦💦

Naughty comic teaser

Well, I'd say this new paper passed the test, and this just might be the first panel of my future story! Please, don't get too excited just yet, though. I want to draw at least six pages of the story before I upload it online, so all of you lovelies will have a bit more to see on the first go ^^
 I will endeavour to present these pages to all of you as soon as possible, and will most certainly post more naughty teasers while I work on them~
 There's still today and tomorrow left of my sale over in Tictail and as always Redbubble is open, if you wish to support my comic making efforts!

Exciting new developments~

So, I’m actually doing a test run on some new paper for that comic, yes the one I keep talking about, and wanted to share a wip of my inking. So far so good 🖤

Early Sunday inktoberings

Mitral is so sick of waiting for me to get my shit together and start the damn comic that they might just die. I'm sorry Mitral, you deserve better you edgelord you 🖤❤🖤❤
This time I only gave myself an hour to get everything done. I'm so rusty ;^;

First inktoberings

I tried to gently slip into inktober with my favorite trees & moss. Life is finally giving me a tiny break so I can draw a little. I gave myself a strict two hour time limit with this one, and it came out pretty well :> All thanks to Homer's help, of course.
More moodsetting for my next project will be the theme for this year. Mitral will hopefully show up too

Nargwhanal, my Heavenly Body of the Hollow Shadows.

 Nargwhanal is an old character of mine from That Comic, but normally there’s actual skin and bones on this shindran darling~
If all goes well you’ll be able to see for yourself this autumn, but before that there will be bookmarks for Tampere kuplii! See you there :D

Art Summary 2017

This year went by so fast! It became the year of pale babes completely by accident.
But I kind of managed my goal of a halfway decent pic per month, yay! Next year I’ll try to have a few from which to choose from... That’d be nice.

 Thank you to all my lovely followers for yet another year <3 I hope next year will be kinder to us all than this one.

Inktober part 1

 I think I'm already a bit late with this, my apologies! I'm trying to get a piece done every second day! at first I had no real idea what I wanted to do, then I suddenly got an idea of a story I could explore with my inktober! It is a science fiction AU of a pair of my older characters~

These are the first four installments in it:

I've also decided to keep this completely monochrome, so no inkwashing, but a lot of practice with my good old Deleters!

Exhibition and Pakanalliset Syysmessut

Just a quick reminder to all of you Finnish people that the Tikkurila exhibition is open until Saturday the 9th!

p.s. Thank you all who managed to find our table in the Comics Festival, it was nice chatting with all of you!

p.p.s. I have a table booked in the Pakanalliset Syysmessut in Suvilahti 23.-24.9.! I'll post more info about it closer to the date, but if you're there, do come say hi~~

Return of Shura

Working on something new~ This is an iteration of one old character that first came to me in a dream, as a male witch elf from Warhammer Fantasy Battle. Nowadays he has a new identity.

I Might get this done by Sarjakuvafestivaalit, where I’ll be sharing a table with Rikkisu Zinefest!

The exhibition is open!

The exhibition is officially open! Welcome everyone ^^The originals will be up on display until the 9th of September!
 In other great news, I will be sharing a table with the wonderful Rikkisu in the Zinefest of Helsinki Comics festival on the first weekend of September! I'll see if I can cook up something small and shenanigan-y for the event~ More information will be shared closer to the event.

A new exhibition of the same comic :D

Second round of rubbing my comic originals in the face of innocent passer-bys en masse is a-go~! Well, next week, that is.

More info in English below, but before that some Finnish.

Sulkia & Suomuja -sarjakuvanäyttely
Tikkurilan kirjasto, 2. kerros
Lummetie 4

Näyttely on avoinna 21.8.-9.9.2017
Ma-Pe 8-20
La-Su 10-16

Sulka & Suomu -sarjakuvan julkaisunäyttelystä tulikin pieni näyttelykiertue! Esillä myös aiemmin näkemättömiä originaalisivuja sarjakuvasta.

Sulka & Suomu on pieni haitarikirjasarjakuva, sen lisäksi se on koe siitä miten syklinen ja monisuuntainen kerronta voisi toimia paperisena sarjakuvana. Sulka & Suomu on unenomainen tarina kahden inhimillisiä ja epäinhimillisiä piirteitä omaavan olennon kohtaamisesta ja sen seuraamuksista.

Tervetuloa!

Feathers & Scales
An exhibition of comic page originals.
Tikkurila Library
Lummetie 4
The exhibition is open 21.8.-9.9.2017
Mon-Fri 8-20
Sat-Sun 10-16

 The Feather & Scale publication exhibition turned into a mini-tour! A few new, yet unseen originals will also be on display.

Feather & Scale is a small accordion book-comic. It is an experiment, a study of how cyclic and multilinear storytelling could function in paper format. It is also a dreamlike story of the meeting of two creatures; and the multiple consequences that ensue.

Welcome!

ps. If you want to RSVP to the FB-event, please do <3

A batch of scroll-prints

I made a batch of huge prints for Ropecon and Worldcon! People have been asking for these, so I shall deliver!
 They are 60 cm high, except Laughter who is a tiny 55 cm~ The width varies a bit from piece to piece. As a bonus there's an A4 sized mini-Ninavel for scale. There's small and big prints of all these other darlings, too!

 And! It seems like people can visit the creator's alley of Worldcon even without having the membership to the event! So if you want to come and say hi to me there, I'll be having a table with Pihlajatar from Friday to Sunday ^^
