Another Patreon-birthday suprise. Hope it reached it's destination savely and the new owner is happy <3 You know that I draw these illustrations mostly to relax and not so much with a certain goal in mind, like I do with 'real' promoillustrations. Nevertheless this is in my opinion one of the most on point pictures for Cosima. The crystal pieces accompany her since Volume 1 and are a reoccurring theme. Watch out for them :D They were always a symbol for the shattered and hidden memories from Riga, but also a link to her true heritage. Another theme in this illustration is the feeling of falling into the void, reaching out to a glimpse which could be a good thing, but honestly you have no idea what's going on at all and you are not sure if its even worth trying. A quite melancholic feeling which I think many people can relate too... I can. It's not that present in the story but it always lies beneath the surface. Waiting to emerge. I hope Cosima finds answers and happyness on her way through the mist. #ink #drawing #OCtober #oc_tober #fantasy #fantasyart #blackandwhitedrawing #gold #traditionalart #analogdrawing #watercolor #illustration #fallen #shards #void #femaleartist #female https://www.instagram.com/p/CGVH8DEDdZy/?igshid=urh4nze5itup

Last but not least illustration of the #inkwash hero-series Velvér showing off. It's seldom that I draw him the way I want to. Usually we meet at my weeker drawing days and I mess him up. But here I feel like I nailed it and I really enjoyed painting the lightsituation ❤ You can pick up the original in my store. As you can get the comicbooks there, from what those characters are. =) (Link is in Bio) Actually I am bit sad that it is the last one from the series. Maybe I'll add another piece to this row. E.g. Kader would just look excellent with that golden circle. But for now that's all. Need to concentrate on the actual next book now. =D Which illustration did you like the most? #ink #analogart #traditionalart #pen #blackandwhitedrawing #gold #finetic #mage #magic #male #fantasy #fantasycomics #originalcharacter #originalart #showof #VomAnfang https://www.instagram.com/p/CAIlj8fDTfr/?igshid=wrai5jkns38y

Next one of the ink series. Cosima and Kuru this time. Unusal serious, but I'm sure the girl got this in her. Just In the comic she's still on the road fo uncover this side of her, luckily otherwise we hadn't a story. Original is up for sale in my shop.

Wait it's not #inktober yet, is it? Nope but March where usually the LBM/MCC happens. As we know not this year, but I planned on bringing a black and white ink series which I want to show you now nevertheless. There will be five illustrations, since there are five "hero"-characters in my comicstory. First one is as usual Co... Nocturne... That's Nocturne. The original is up for sale in my webshop.

Polaroid 07/09 - Jorel Be honest. That's Not the kind of game you expected Jorel to play. But despite his rather aggressive personality he really digs peaceful games. (which he takes way to serious, on the other hand...) But those games help him to concentrate and calm his troubled mind... Which is good I guess? Also every cow has hand picked (questionable) names... If that's no win... I don't know what is. I do too... XD Do you give names to your game-pets, Pokemon? #originalcharacter #harvestmoon #games #snes #zocker #cow #comicartist #polaroid #webcomic #vomanfang #videogame #retrogames #drawing #caetoon #illustration #digitalart #digitaldrawing https://www.instagram.com/p/B89RqVFKsJ3/?igshid=1cn56lnel0ou

Polaroid 05/09 Coloring this one was tough. I had this vision of a rather soft lightning, but whoever thought giving a blue fish guy a red dragon mount, was clearly mad... This color combination will be hard to handle in any giving setting. ... Well the mad woman was me... And I regretted my past choices a lot while color correcting this piece. Somewhere in the process I absolutely lost my opinion on everything and spent two or more hours, adding (and deleting) tiny details and adjustments, which I spammed to artist friends who couldn't see a difference at all. ... In the end (and after 20+ screenshots, I couldn't tell apart either) we came to the agreement that this version is fine and finished for the moment. (Someone shouted 'STAHP CARO - IT'S ENOUGH!) And today... looking at it with fresh eyes... I think I like it the most from all the Polaroids yet? Guess what keeps me questioning, was/is the rather 'calm' colors - I'ts still vibrant, but not as usual full saturated... I'm still a bit in doubt whether it will pop enough, when printed - especially next to the others. We will see... But I think this version suits Chaze and Anya the best. My soft boy and dragon <3 You can get this one as small Polaroid Print along with my books first at MCC. Pre-orders for my latest release a sketchzins, are still open. Find the link in my bio. Who will I met at MCC? =0 I'm so excited already! #Polaroid #dragon #fantasy #headbump #fishguy #softboy #boy #blue #red #sunbeam #illustration #comicart #VomAnfang #fantasyanimal #pet https://www.instagram.com/p/B8ZMishKX4g/?igshid=11i2ax3sv9isc

Polaroid 04/09 Obviously I cannot miss out the fancy hunters from the circle, who both seem to spend more time caring for their outfits than actual community work. At least Anastasia on the right... For Lia I have some hope left, he tries doing the right thing... At last he tries... Don't forget that I have pre-orders open for a sketchzine I'd love to send to you!

Polaroid 03/09 Next in the row is Velvér who seems to be no morning person. Imagine him looking at someone he doesn't genuinely like... #firstcoffee #originalcharacter #originalcharacters #sunbeam #light #morning #ihatemondays #illustration #polaroid #comicart #shadow #VomAnfang #photoshop #cellshading https://www.instagram.com/p/B71LRZBCjb-/?igshid=13z7trlufa0zr

Got quite carried away with this one... Originally I just wanted to get more used to #procreate so I took a pencilsketch from June and threw some colors on it. And some more and more... And when I felt like I couldn't go further on the tablet I jumped to my mainstation and Photoshop and did some final edits... One can call this a very elaborated sketch now xD Starring Aster and Kjell again. Want to tell their story so badly... One day, when #VomAnfang is finished. For now you have to live with random illus of the two of them =) Please imagine the white particles not beeing snow but ashes ❤ #nightsky #illustration #digitalart #digitaldrawing #couple #afterthebattle #wound #art #ashes #originalcharacter #fantasy #photshop #color #warriors #asjell https://www.instagram.com/p/B0OZQRsCbif/?igshid=1oyjdck9up7hg
