reblogs are fab, reposts aren't <3
I started sketching some Pulp Musicals characters around midnight last night and thought to myself, "hey, these look pretty damn good!" so I kept going until 3 am. Today I brought 'em into clip studio to play with them some more, and now I have these!! plus my silly doodles and dumb commentary + jokes. <3
and some versions w/o color! the traditional + digital sketching is a neat combination, I think.
I like to imagine the excitement and crazy in their eyes as they revealed their project, rivaled that of the Stratfords explaining Great Astronomical Discoveries to Benjamin.
“Stories helped us find our place when New York seemed like outer space”
Margaret Cavendish and John Herschel, my beloveds <3
I've drawn these two way less often than the twins, so they'll take some practice but I'm happy with these!! they were fun. :)
hi, my name is Jack and my special talent is sketching most of the same references but hopefully a little better/different this time! 😂 I'm working on trying to move a little further away from realism (which seems to be my default when I use references, lol) and add a more cartoony style to my repertoire, so redrawing the same refs has been pretty handy there? idk, I'm just making this up as I go. 😅
SIA MY BELOVED <3333 i can't believe it took me this long to draw her 😫💔 but that's okay, better late than never! also Kim Whalen is a freaking goddess and she sings like one too, but that's not news to anyone aajxhdhdbjdks
tumblr was dumb so I have to retype everything 🙃
part 2 left me very 😵💫 and I still have so many thoughts and feelings I don't even know how to articulate but here are some sketches I managed to do over the course of the day! Mostly featuring Kal because I love this terrible awful man and I am still learning how I wanna draw him. we're getting there, I think. (the dark angel sketch is something I'd like to make a proper illustration someday.) this page also features A Samuel™ and the astronomer who will continue to drive me insane. <3
and I have to shout out fallinginaforrest's awesome art that opened my mind and made me think "oh yeah they're probably a bit scruffier than they were in the beginning" and thus inspired me to give both Samuel and John a little more scruff than I usually do.
alrighty, here are the close-ups! as stated previously, I am so incredibly proud of how everyone turned out. I was also 100% playing fake it till you make it with the shading and whatnot, so it is probably not very accurate at all. but it looks cool! so that's enough for me, lmao.

Anna, Rose, and Margaret, completely covered in dirt, after one of those days where everything hurt, raise a glass to toast the past. To Maria Cunitz.
A world of our own
Anna Hanover, mathematician, built with an astronomer's disposition, a civil engineer
I just realized I never shared ren-from-mars' awesome art of Rose Stratford with her printing press plate
I'm reposting this to add Samuel's glasses and Benjamin's scruffiness.
But also because I'm happy to announce that the AU is complete. Check it out if you want. I promise at least one good thing happens to Benjamin in it.
I love them so much!
A collection of traditional sketches of pulp characters requested by the members of Blinky's Rewatch Party discord server (aka the only starcanpulpwrecked server I'm in). Pulp Musicals have been deeply ingrained in my brain for quite some time now and I strongly encourage people give it a listen!
"The author knew their history, a scientific sleuth. Maybe in another life, we would have got along..."
In another life. Sure, John.
The gang <3
S1 Pulp Musicals Gang my beloved
"Just above the water line, built from timber, solid, strong. Running in between the wheels, was a ramp, hundreds of meters long. Angled towards the clouds into whatever lay beyond, and waiting on the ramp was a giant sphere..."
I will only ever do environment pieces if the environment is fictional and also in Pulp Musicals
The idea of them experimenting with aircraft is so fun and cute to me. And I love all the colours and lighting in this.
paper stars <3 I just think that them :3
So over the past two weeks I’ve absolutely fallen in love with @pulpmusicals so ofc I had to draw something!! Have a Rose and John for your troubles <3
Based off of this Leyendecker piece :)))
