#tormance

[ID: A simple lineless digital drawing showing the planet Tormance from the 1920 book, A Voyage to Arcturus. The ground is in shades of red, growing darker the further away it gets. The scene is of a mountainous region, with two tiny stick figures standing on the edge of a black precipice, looking across at the continuing mountain chain in front of them, with a much larger mountain on their Left side. The sky is deep blue, and lit on the Left, behind the tall mountain, by the light of a blue star, and fainter, on the Right, by a white star. End ID.]

I'm making all my art for this book public domain since it's public domain and it's only fair. All the files will be put here, including speedpaints of the other art: Here's the link on the web archive.

I have never in my life been so confounded by a book :( :(

If somebody can explain to me what the plot is I promise I will draw more fan art of Tormance and Branchspell and Alppain. I fucking love Alppain.

i might have arleady made this post and forgotten I posted it

but anyways.

I love tormance. they live there now. on giant lily-pad style plants in the ocean that suck down water in their centers which forms the "southern pull" and then also around the outside of the center are little platformer style people who walk on the edge.

“What do you call the colour of your skin, Haunte, as I saw it in daylight? It struck me as strange.”

“Dolm,” said Haunte.

“A compound of ulfire and blue,” explained Corpang.

“Now I know. These colours are puzzling for a stranger.”

“What colours have you in your world?” asked Corpang.

“Only three primary ones, but here you seem to have five, though how it comes about I can’t imagine.”

“There are two sets of three primary colours here,” said Corpang, “but as one of the colours—blue—is identical in both sets, altogether there are five primary colours.”

“Why two sets?”
