Welp, here's something! This sketch relates to a post I've made earlier for some context
I have a small scene on the 9th chapter of YIH with this dance, and I needed to make some reference for it. I'll leave this post public since I tweeted it already, but I wanted it on these archives anyway.

Mika being swift as the coursing river, with all the force of a great typhoon and with all the strength of a raging fire - Hawk Hunting
Couldn't quite live up to the expectations, I've been a little bit sick lately so this is the best I could do. x3 Thank you for the request~

Not a rodent.
I've only shared concept art of her on Discord previously and here's a revamped version!
You'll meet Georgie "Rats" Carter in the 2nd chapter.

Not drawn this girl in AGES. Cheers for requesting her!
It'll be a while before you'll hear from her again (those who remember her from the old Tistow).
She was meant to be brought into Tistow and nabbed by the urchins from under Jack and Omar's noses, but we never quite got there in the story. In later scripts I had planned for the urchins to be the ones to give her a name (there's a lot of 'Williams' in the comic and the noises the fledgling can make in the beginning are 'ke...

Request by Hawky from the last batch!
There's some Primals Jack just. 'Puts up with' I guess is a good way to put it.

That time of the week! You're welcome to submit as many as you like and we'll pick a few of them to draw. ♥
Elli's also going to pick a few of last week's ideas to do, so if you want to resubmit one of them, post them here!

Boop! Changed a few bits and pieces, namely Nana and some of the BGs. I might still tweak things but I'm much happier with this result than the previous WIP.

Unfortunately, it looks like I've completely lost the pencil stage of this. D: But here's the inks and one colouring stage at least!
Notes to self:
- Nana's back and sleeves
- Details for Anna's dress in earlier pages
- Change BG on panel 4 to better match the angle

´´Your favorite characters with their favorite flower/plant? - Chris Brockus
This was an interesting one. Dandelion isn't really my favourite flower, but Tistow version of Veeti will start practicing herbalism once Jack has left Heahtta. His first succesful tonic water will be made out of said plant. :3
More Casual Ieva - Michael Hawk
Finally got to showcase just how frizzy her hair is, and why she prefers it tied tightly when she's on duty. x3 That was a ...

Our boys in rodent forms! We all know of Jáhko's rat shape, but we haven't seen that from Veeti.
And that would be because Veeti is more compatible as a mouse. :3

Hello everyone! I'd like you to test this out a bit ahead of the page going public. We've worked out a way to share pages on the website ahead for Patrons. If this works as intended, I'm going to start sharing them regularly with you in the future.
Quick edit: I've had to temporarily disable comments while I work out some stuff for Disqus!

Got a few more of these for this week, but here's one! Sketch request by Yuuago. Something cute with Jáhko and Ida.
Jáhko showing little Ida vixen the ropes. While she can't hear, she's still gonna get a lot more out of the keener sense of beasties.
Those who don't know, Ida is Jáhko's little sister who we introduced in the bonus comic, Juuret.

Still concepting this girl but she's one of our dragons hidden in the city. Much like the concept you've seen for the gent made out of rooftops.
I've been wanting to make a similar illustration of her and Jack but I still feel like I need to get her concept more finalised before that.
She loves her trinkets and jewelry and toshers and mudlarks sometimes chuck some of their treasures back to the river as an offering.

I mentioned in an earlier post that I've been trying to find a way to colour Anna's hair differently because I don't want hers to use the same tones as Jack's. I was fiddling with layer modes this evening and I think I've found it. Quite by accident too though as the one I ended up using also turned all the characters blond.

Nana's really fun and at the same time super frustrating to draw.

Trying something slightly different, again. Will apply the changes to the previous pages as well.
Jack's freckly face~
I keep wondering if I should try to amend Anna's hair to differentiate it from Jack's red a little, but haven't thought much more on it.

He was young once too.
We'll do another call for sketchs request tonight! Keep an eye out for that post!

It's been a while since we've had a new one and I figured Ch2 starting is a good time to freshen things up a little.

Still a WIP but I'll post another one when it's finished! New banner in the works.
I feel like I've got a million things that still need doing before the new chapter can start and I'd really like my canvas to be blank before then.

Here we go then, this chapter was already showed in Patreon, but it's time to put on sale now after little edits, fixes and neatings.
So here's the newer, final version. It's in the downloads below!
There's two formats: Long view displaying one page at a time, and Wide view for a more booklike experience.
