I tried. Think I failed.


'
What are you making - beer? I haven't tried myself but have some friends who tells me it's a lot of work!

Had something of a crazy moment and decided to do the thing - how hard can it be right?
Anyway, finally finished and I hope people like how they were drawn  ;D It's sorta in alphabetical order except for the new people who just got placed wherever I was at the time, and Melusine who doesn't have a slide in the info dump yet so ended up at the end :(

Impressive! You drew me, wheee :)

YAY more self-insert stuff. I have drawn much more of it than I've posted here, but none of it was quite right.

Bio is still a work in progress, but so far...

Age: 19

Occupation: Illuminator, calligraphy artist, woodcut artist... Illumination is her main thing, but what actually pays bills is the woodcuts (for signage and other informative illustrations) and calligraphy. Sometimes when she gets some old tech working, that can be sold off, too, but that part of her life is mainly a hobby.

Location: Mora.

Nationality: Icelandic.

Languages: Icelandic, Swedish, some Finnish

Bio: Born immune, she decided the path of an artist was hers very very soon in life. When she was old enough to pay passage, she moved to Mora (much to the dismay of her relatives) and set up a business there. She's been pushing pretty hard to get a party to take her along to the Silent World, but so far has had no luck. She's got multiple reasons for this, mainly studying trolls, giants, and beasts from close up, perhaps getting her hands on some old tech parts, and also gaining more info on what people lived like back then. Currently she's pondering whether training as a cleanser would let her gain entry to the Silent World... and if it takes much longer to find a willing party to take her along, she'll go do just that.

As for her personality, she's very quiet and likes her work more than humans. However, if anyone can break through and get her talking about subjects she's passionate about, she will talk an incredible amount, regardless of who it is. She dislikes showing her face, and has very long, fluffy hair which she stuffs underneath a cap, usually - except for her fringe, which hangs over her face. She doesn't dislike cats but prefers dogs with a quiet personality over cats. She is incredibly stubborn. She might not seem very affectionate, but close friends and family know otherwise - she just shows it in odd ways.

Here's a more polished up snippet of my progress so far for my earlier post.



The composition has since quintupled in width (not seen here) because I need to expand it enough for the art collaboration. It's rather refreshing to go back to creating environments again!

It looks beautiful, and I love the lighting! And the clever birb.

Two questions.
One: How are all'y'all so good?? LOOK AT ALL THIS ART AND CREATIVITY!!! *wails*
Two: Can I still do my SSSSona's reaction to Blorptroll?

Things just went downhill from there.

Never too late to do reactions to Blorptroll!
Oh gosh, poor you! But he doesn't do anything I'm sure (?) (unless you make it angry. maybe)

Guys I finished my sona!


Duuude, that looks super cool! Also that classified background seems shady :v And I know it's already been said, but your handwriting is SO ON POINT


North (I LOVE YOUR FACE)
[screams for hours bc fanart of me] I LOOK SO PRETTYYYY also i LOVE how diverse everyone looks! I tend to suffer from same-face-syndrome, so this is really really cool  ;D

Lenny: You sona looks really nice! Also I dig your style. A lot. The clothes are looking awesome.

Expressions are hard, aww. But this was the first thing I thought of when I saw your ssssona, North:

oh my god this is so perfect
we must battle to decide who's the alpha

Almond-Goddess: I adore your art. It looks really cute, and I like that it's lineless ;v;

What are you making - beer? I haven't tried myself but have some friends who tells me it's a lot of work!
Well, mead. Its somewhat less work than beer, but I don't think either is that much work really. There's really just three points in the entire process one has to do anything (bottling being the final one, and the only one that's obvious enough that I can draw it recognizably). Personally, I spend about 3-4 hours of actual work on each (20-22 liter) batch over the course of a month or two (ie, its a lot cheaper than anything one can buy even if counting cost-of-labour, and the results tend to be better). The one time I tried beer took more work, though.
