I am pleased to announce What Resides in the Cheval Glass officially has its own site! I've been meaning to set this up so as to share this comic with non-tumblr users. I'll also admit the navigation over there is much smoother than on Tumblr. It took me a while to upload the 60+ archived pages, but we did it!!
As an incentive to use the site, pages will update an hour early at 9:00AM CST/CDT over there! Pages will continue to be uploaded on Tumblr at the regular 10:00 time.
Last weekend, I attended a play called Static-Head. I was initially attracted to the listing because the synopsis reminded me of Be More Chill, and I would say there was definitely similar vibes, with two different robot-AI characters and emergent technology that hooks up to your senses. It was a great show! I knew I was in for a treat when they handed us our playbills and they had an entirely in-character ad for the fictional university in the show on the front. The whole thing had a lot of unfiction vibes, with experimental dreamlike sequences and a multimedia feel.
The show is a critique on AI and social media, and they had this set with these phone-like vertical screens they could move around. At one point, they project pre-recorded shorts video on the screen, featuring the actors in a sort of nightmare scenario in which their consciousnesses are put into a variety of tired shorts tropes after they sort of get trapped in the app. I thought that was quite fun.

I hope every single person who puts nice comments in tags under reblogged art knows that you you guys are the backbone of society. Being an artist online sucks these days, but here on tumblr I still get compliments under artworks that I made years ago. I hope you know every WOW and heart emoji and heartfelt compliment and funny comment you left in the tags is part of the reason I kept drawing all these years, in spite of everything that was going on.
I've been screenshotting the nice tags I get for years, and at this point it would be literal thousands of lines if I still had my old files. I love u tumblr users <333333333
This 100% I read as many tags as I can and it's very encouraging!! Sometimes when I have a bad day I look through them again just to cheer myself up haha

Beee tee wee i think it would be fun if by the end of the book when Jekyll has. Little to no control over him transforming into Hyde, for said transformations be triggered by his emotions. Happiness especially. Maybe because that’s what he mostly associated past tense Hyde with(and also because I want him to suffer)
So I imagine that in those times when he’s trapped in his cabinet, sitting alongside the equipment and substances which helped him head towards him downfall, if he ever tries to soothe himself; to think of something positive, someone he cares about perhaps, or just tried to have a sip of tea, he will be forced to go back to that ever so hates persona of his, now turned into his eternal tormentor
Finished my Strange Case designs! (I technically already posted the Jekyll & Hyde ones a few days ago, but I made a few small changes to them so I decided to do a whole new post.)
Rambling about my thought process / choices below the cut!
DR. HENRY JEKYLL
Red & Purple theme to contrast Hyde's Green & Yellow theme
Neckwear tucked in and hair pulled into ponytail to look neat and composed - the opposite of Hyde's free-flowing hair and neckwear
The mutton chops directly contradict the book's description of him as "smooth faced", but I am choosing to ignore that 'cause I love when Jekyll has mutton chops :)
Shineless, lifeless eyes cause he needs his special potion to feel alive
Dark eyebags cause he hasn't slept in one million years
Made him the tallest and made him chubby for three reasons: 1. The book describes him as large multiple times; 2. The more physically different he is from Hyde, the more horrifying the transformation would be; 3. It makes me happy
MR. EDWARD HYDE
Green & Yellow theme to contrast Jekyll's Red & Purple theme
Neckwear and hair are loose and free-flowing to make him look wild and unrestrained - the opposite of Jekyll
Has double the shine in his eyes cause he's feelin' so alive (he stole the second one from Jekyll)
Gave him red hair with the idea that Jekyll was born with red hair but it darkened with age, as is common with red and blonde hair (I say as a used-to-be blonde) - thus, the bright red hair would further emphasize his youthfulness
The shortness comes from the book, while his spindly frame comes from my previously mentioned desire to make him as physically different from Jekyll as possible (you know, for the horrors)
Carried over some of Jekyll's features in order to create a hint of resemblance (same nose, the two loose strands of hair over the forehead, the fluffy eyebrows, the long hair and mutton chops, etc.)
MR. GABRIEL UTTERSON
Dull Blue & Black theming to complement his "cold, dusty, dreary" book description (also happens to contrast Lanyon's Gold & White theming - omg they're so "the dress" coded)
Plain, unassuming attire for a plain, unassuming man
His glasses are a square just like him (affectionate) (seriously tho I promise I'm not bullying him, I love him so much)
The book describes him as long and lean, so I made him slim and almost as tall as Jekyll
No smile cause the book says so (it’s straight up the very first sentence of the book)
Broadway Utterson served as the foundation for this design cause I am a big fan of Broadway Utterson
DR. HASTIE LANYON
Flashy Gold & White theming to complement his "dapper, boisterous, theatrical" book description (also happens to contrast Utterson's Blue & Black theming)
Big flashy white coat for a stylish, outgoing guy (also eludes to his profession as a doctor)
Rosy skin and white hair are pulled straight from the book
Described as hearty and healthy in the book, so I made him the biggest of the four (he is the shortest by default since the other two are implied to be tall - not counting Hyde of course, I made sure to make Hyde at least a head shorter than everyone else)
Gave him a mid-speech smile and smile lines cause he is so jovial! (he has yet to witness the horrors)
I'm probably missing some things but that's all I can think to say for now! Thanks for reading!
