The night between the seventh and eighth of April marks the anniversary of my first and very unexpected Douman dream. These drawings were actually supposed to be for the first anniversary last year, but I didn’t have time to do anything in time. I made these sketches later on,and held onto them for months to post for the second anniversary. I put the rest of the description in a read more because I have much to say!
For the theme I went with a part of the first dream that was influenced by a book I read about graphic design in Cuba. The first three images depict a scene from the first dream I regret not drawing, the segue from the reveal to the mambo montage of Douman in Cuba. Edit, tumblr doesn’t like external links so I’ll have to just mention to see “Que Rico Mambo” by Perez Prado. The song in the montage was indiscernible, but the one mentioned is the closest I could find to it. Douman dropped their disguise via walking past an arcade column.
The other images were for the anniversary, where I had some fun doing studies of the graphic design book that influenced the Cuba segment of the first dream. The “Visit Cuba” image is the only one I referenced directly, with some edits of course, while the rest are inspired by a bunch of different things from the book. (there was no credit in the book for the referenced image other than it was a luggage label)
I like to think that once Merlin and Dantes are summoned, as individuals who watch dreams, they also see all of Pilar’s encounters with Douman in her dreams. So for the anniversary drawings I wanted to make a sort of comic depicting that in some way.
The last drawing I had this idea that suddenly came to mind, something like a welcome poster. I had a lot of fun conceptualizing and drawing it.
I never got to finish some of these and sadly don’t currently have the time to do so, but I wanted to post them anyways since I’ve been holding onto them for months. While I currently have other higher priority art to do, I’m looking forward to continuing drawing all the dreams! The most interesting thing is that after I finished 5.5, I stopped having them. I do like that it worked out that way, the final dream was a perfect last dream encounter before finally seeing one another in 5.5, and plus the dream count is capped and not a growing list anymore lol.
