Fedicard

An illustration of a Magic – The Gathering style trading card showing an island at night saying „Temporary Respite > Birch Cove – Fantastic Landscape: It can be a cruel world out there, so stay a while, look at some pretty art, recharge and then go on changing it for the better.“ The card is surrounded by flowers and grass, a butterfly, a ladybug, a cup of coffee, drawing utensils as well as a small plate with nuts, chocolate and raspberries on it.

Hi! Remember #FediCard? I decided to make an illustration around one, way after it was cool and then kinda lost steam … But since it’s theme seems to only getting more relevant I decided to post it anyway in all it’s unfinished glory ^__^

I’ve long struggled with my art not being deep or political enough and while I do see a worth in giving people the chance of not thinking about terrible events for a second it still feels not enough …

„The Shadow“ now in my shop ✨

A photo of the printed English and German editions, the cover showing the two main characters in front of a city in a valley. They're standing (on the shore?) of a lake. There's a shadowy creature instead of the reflection of one of the main characters in the water.
First page of the comic opening with a a view of a landscape with a river and a mountain cutting to the two main characters climbing that mountain.
Second page: they've reached the cliff-top and can see the next mountain with a canyon that is guarded by gigantic but cute stone figures of a bat and a bird. It's the entrance to the ancient city of witches!

Hi! I started (veeery slowly) moving stuff from my Ko-fi to my own shop. First up is my short comic „The Shadow“, with its English and German digital and printed versions:

The Shadow / Der Schatten

Still not sure if I’m really supposed to make „products“ for all the versions and then a „grouped product“ to catch them all, while the single products clutter up all places like:

I feel like there should be a better way, but it doesn’t seem to work with „variants“ (which seems to be for doing all possible variants of e.g. three sizes and colours for a t-shirt). If anyone knows their way around in #Woocommerce please chime in. #Wordpress #shop #webshop #ecommerce
