The last days brought a few things, that can only be described as the return of my genie OC Martha.

New Marta comic is comming

I had the idea for a comic that is set in the Marthaverse. It will feature all of my main characters, but also characters from a dA friend, who gave me a lot of art over the last half year. Yesterday, I finished the script as well as the story board and started working on the first page. Here's the progress overview:


Skript - finished

Storyboard - finished

Titel - finished

Page 1 - not yet started

Page 2 - in progress

Page 3 - not yet started

Page 4 - not yet started

Page 5 - not yet started

Page 6 - not yet started


I hope to have that comic finished soon. Currently, I'm on spring break, so I have more time to work on the comic.


And yes, the last journal and the last poll were for that project too.

New Martha fanart

Yesterday, I also received some Martha fanart out of the blue.

Genie Martha
Genie Martha (Genie Form)

These pictures were done by LordGianmarco, who is a big genie fan. I'm very pleased with the pictures he came up with. Martha looks so beautiful in them. I've already planned something for him in return. And it will feature Martha as well.


I hadn't planned much with Martha before, but things can really change fast. Martha will return to my page, at least for the new comic and a gift art. Will this be the start of a new series? Only time will tell.

I'm planing a short comic featuring my genie Martha. The comic will be set in my Marthaverse and will be semi-canonical. For this comic, I'm looking for genies, that are so evil, they shouldn't be let loose on the world.


Or more precisely: I'm looking for their vessels, be it lamps, bottles or anything else.


If you have an evil genie you want to have locked away safely, I'd be happy if you would lent me that character and their vessel.


Please post a link to the character in the comments here. If I add that genie to my comic, I will give you credit and add a link back to your character on the comic page.

February review

3 min read

It's one month since my last post. During February, work caught up with me again, leaving me even less time for art.


I stopped working on my interactive TG stories and couldn't get back into the mood for the last weeks. I might give it another try in the next days if I can find the motivation.


Still I was able to finish some artwork. All of it was gift art. The first recipient of gift art is my confis816. We did several collabs over the last month. I gave him two pictures of his OCs.

Lena und Aisha on Valentine Day

The next batch of pictures is for a two-page comic, which is a birthday gift too. The first page was posted on the birthday of EmperorNortonII. The second page will be posted on March 9th, which will be another birthday of a friend. The comic features OC by both recipients of the gift.

BG: Daphne and Apollonia

The third batch are birthday gifts again, this time for Curia-DD. Again, characters of her appear in the pictures. My contribution is her Superheroine Grey Cat, who appeared in my last comic.

Happy Birthday, Dede!
Plushie: Grey Cat

Outlook

Currently, I'm working to finish the second comic page for March 9th. I'm very confident to meet the deadline.


After this, my next big project will be the next installment of my Legends of the Rising Sun series. This story will be "The Ghost of the Goldfish", which is based on one of the most famous japanese ghost stories.


I don't have specific plans for the projects after "The Ghost of the Goldfish" yet. Alas, I have some rought ideas. I might do another adaption of a jinn story as a comic. Here I found several stories in the book "Legends of the fire spirits", which I can recommend if you are interested in jinn lore.


Also I'm toying around with ideas for a new superheroine comic. There is definitely potential in that.


I also have the idea to do comics based on two german poems, namely "The Ballad of John Maynard" and "The Bridge on River Tay", both by Theodor Fontane.


More Sleeping Stories Art will appear at some time too, but I don't know yet which I will do for that world next.


The point, however is, that doing art takes a lot of my time. I want to do more art, but I need to get my priorities sorted out. For now, I will concentrate on doing the second page of the Apollonia comic.

My last comic, "White Owl and Grey Cat vs. the Queen of Fashion" is finished. It was my first superheroine comic and I learned a lot while drawing it, especially about how to draw action scenes.


Now I'd like you to give me a feedback on this comic. Please post in the comments what you like about the comic, what you don't like or what I can do better next time.

For Chapter 10 of our interactive TG story, I received two proposals, one by @whippetwild and one by SnuffPrincessX. Both suggested that Barbara will take the drunken Regina to her place. The question remains how Barbara will react to Regina's advances from the end of the last chapter. The two options are


  1. Barbara is returning the feelings as she is into women.

  2. Barbara sees Regina only as a friend. She is not attracted by Regina.


The poll will be open until Thursday, Feb. 1st at 6 p.m.
