Oh I Love Your Last Pic! Though I Don't Know The Idea, Is She A Robot?

oh i love your last pic! though i don't know the idea, is she a robot?

Thank you so much! I hardly ever get any asks, I’m so pleased to hear you liked the picture! This has honestly made my day. :D You could say she’s a human who has always been treated like a robot. In the Factory you must do exactly what you’re told to do, no matter what, so even after she escapes she doesn’t behave like a normal person. You’d think she’d try to find somewhere nearby where she could get out of the rain, but she was told to wait, so she waits. There’s a boy in the story with the same problem, I’ll try to remember to draw him later so you can meet them both!

Berix isn’t crying, those tear tracks are permanent stains caused by a hallucinogenic drug.

Just time enough to introduce one more new person! Berix is another courtesan of the Dai Empress. His people make extensive use of mind-altering drugs, so one of his special skills is formulating them for courtiers. He enjoys music.

If they fall down without time to prepare, they don’t come out right.

Jessie can summon lightning even on a clear day.

I spent a good 20 minutes just staring at my sketchbook drawing a total blank on ideas, so in the end I decided to extend the ‘girls looking straight forward’ set from last year. Maybe I’ll do a few more?

If you tell her to wait, she’ll wait.

I was going to shade this with grey pens, but I decided on a whim to try doing just clean line art instead. I’m quite pleased with it?

Here’s another character we haven’t met before, although you may have seen his eye if you’ve been here a while. Jothan is a courtesan at the palace of the Dai Empress, with music among his specialist skills. His people never show their open mouths, so he wears a veil if he’s been ask to sing as well as play.

(The harp design isn’t final, I think it should be a bit less symmetrical.)
