also, the half-Roman, half-German culture is honestly really cool. Do you think you’ll create a hybrid Latin-Germanic language for them? (It’s not like English isn’t already basically that though, lol)

@ellette-giselle the style you’ve taken for that latest section is interesting! although I’m a little confused, are these letters to someone or more like journal entries?

@ellette-giselle

Great section!! I think you pulled it off. It doesn’t feel too odd or confusing. We are told when the time is passing by, and given a few details, and then the winter is over.

and the other down Julian’s back while he lay sleeping.

😂😂😂 Talk about a rude awakening!

I’m interested in Leon’s backstory more now. He seems to be hidi…[Read more]

Violin would be easier to learn coming from a pianist background! But yeah, I understand if you already have too many instruments.

I will say that it’s hardest in the beginning, probably. When you are just starting out, it’s hard to get it to sound good. But if you can stick with it for a few months, it gets better. 😉

@liberty

I do!

You don’t, do you?

@ellette-giselle

Yeah, it’s so weird because basically all they’re getting is the character’s personality and description in-book . . . also moodboards, which probably influenced it a lot xD But still, it’s cool seeing other people’s imaginations on paper.

@ellette-giselle

Right. Just make sure to give the readers some regular scenes too, so that there’s a blend between time jumps and regular speed. But you’ve already done this in the sections we’ve read, so just keep it up. 😜

@ellette-giselle

I imagine her with darker eyes and probably looking a little younger, but you did pretty well. 😁

also the stripes on Huntress’s cheek and neck are not shading (I should’ve done their color so they aren’t the same), they’re markings on her skin. It’s a Changeling thing (her species)

@whalekeeper

I and my younger sister sometimes have telepathy moments too, so I think it’s more of a close sibling thing.

Hey, that happens to me and my younger sister as well! We’re almost 2 years apart, but spend a good amount of time together (as homeschoolers 😝). We’re always trying to say the same thing or making the same connections.

I’m nowhere near finished but I decided to try my hand at shading again, so here’s my latest work in progress!

Another one of Sniper cause I draw him wayyy too much hehehe……only this time he’s with Huntress. I haven’t quite decided which scene of them this is for, but if I do I’ll post it with the finished drawing. it’ll probably be a “can you te…[Read more]

@linus-smallprint

Wow, your depiction of her personality was really cool to read. I hadn’t even thought about all those things together like that–like how she pauses to consider different things–but you have a good point.

Awesome, thank you!! I’m glad it doesn’t seem to be too much for you guys.

@whalekeeper

Oh yeeaah, I did. Okay, makes more sense that you knew. 🤣 Yep, I signed up! I think I’m in Brookside Stories?

🤣🤣

Oh, awesome!! I guess I’ll see you on there, then! 😉

I don’t think I can survive another week. 😳😝 And the teacher puts ME in the trouble chair.

The trouble chair?? XD

Godzilla origins are pretty cool. Having watched som…

@whalekeeper very nice!!

@ellette-giselle

Thank you so much!!!!

She’s not smiling because I was trying to capture the way she feels to me at this point in the story. Hope that’s okay.

That’s totally fine! I like seeing how other people picture my characters–I don’t know, it’s just really interesting and cool. And yeah, I don’t know if I would imagine her smiling eit…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

I like the section, though again, like we’ve talked about before, you do kind of gloss over everything and summarize it all in a page or two. That’s fine, though, if this isn’t a super important part of the story. It would be nice to get to see some more specifically of the new characters who’ve joined Julian and Leon, since we…[Read more]

(My brother isn’t my twin, he’s fours years younger, but ehh.)

@whalekeeper yeah it seems that way. My brother and I are pretty close, so maybe we’ve had something like that all along but have never paid attention to it.

Or called it “telepathy.” Really seems more like intuition with me. Twintuition. Lol

@keilah-h

I know a pair of twins who say they have it, but they’re probably joking. XD I and my younger sister sometimes have telepathy moments too, so I think it’s more of a close sibling thing.
