Finally released my first chapter of my Dracula AU: Dracula gowth of the vampires!
It’s not the longest chapters but i think my writting has improved!
I added a cover to chapter 1 and i plan making one for chapter 2 too!!
Jekyll would definitely have nightmares after he started transforming out of nowhere,, maybe abt just transforming at random or the transformation going wrong perhaps,,, I mean theres a lot of potential for body horror here, just think abt it!!
also would definitely not help with his sleep issues sorry Jekyll
Oh I absolutely Adore this comic, i needed to edit it! And I need more people to read it. It's such good reimagining. I usually don't share my edits here but i wanted to make an exception here since I'm really proud of it and i really wanted to show my appreciation of it since i do really love it!!
And we'll see if this edit will age like milk because after all we don't know yet how lanyons alter ego looks like and i didn't just wanted to use an arm for the edit.
hello! first of all, I just wanna say I'm a huge fan of this comic! secondly, I have one small question:
how would Dr. Jekyll (or possibly Hyde) feel about having a non-human try out his serum? (namely my main sona, a harpy! their name is avis, and they'd be more than happy to see how someone else's soul-splitting potion would work on them!) I may or may not already be doodling something.. :3
Thank you!! If you do end up doodling something I'd love to see it 👀 Now, onto your question...
(Monsters outside the realm of gothic sci-fi don’t exist in this universe, alas, but I went ahead and beamed Jekyll with their theoretical existence.)
"Jekyll would suffer smartingly in the fires of abstinence, Hyde would be not even conscious of all that he had lost." - The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde
Their relationship is so interesting, considering they know they are the same person but feel so averse to each others desires that in some way they are still separate, and that Jekyll sees Hyde as an ultimatum, wow. TSCODJAMH is peak literature.
due to the fact that i will talk to anyone & everyone in my real life about frankenstein (1831) i have heard both incredible, thought provoking takes (thank you, school librarian) and takes so horrid they took years off my lifespan. and one of those takes that annoys me the most by FAR is people insinuating or outright stating that the cycle of incestuous abuse in the frankenstein family is a personal failing of victor's because "ewww he wants to fuck his sister thats so WEIRD he's so WEIRD and GROSS" as if victor isn't ALSO a victim in this
im sick of redesigning them so im leaving these 2 at this idgaf anymore... lion n dorothy design will b posted eventually i swear i will work on those theyre in the stage where its jst so embarrassing i dont wanna show thrm 😢
id rather die than do clean lineart ever again ngl
SWEET TOOTH HYDE???
Cookie? 🍪
Damn Jekyll, now all of London knows you're a messy pastry whore.
Read Part 1 here.
Achilles and Patroclus is traditionally painted with ink paints, pencil, micron pen, and colored pencils, with minor digital editing for adding text, speech bubbles, panel lines, and minor corrections. Absolutely zero AI is used anywhere in the process, and both the author and the artist are staunchly anti AI.
As promised with the new year, scenes will be dropped every few months as they are completed, and a few months after the last page goes up on Patreon and Ko-Fi. If you'd like to read the rest of each page as they update, you can subscribe to Magpie Artists Ensemble Ko-Fi or to Chess's Patreon. If you want to peek at the paneling drafts, those are available only on Chess's Patreon.
If you would like to help bring this project to life but can't afford to financially support us, please spread this post around and give this page a follow to keep up with our announcements! Getting this project in front of more eyes is more important than you know, so thank you.
Ah, yes.. Hyde. He took longer to design, but I think I'm happy with how he looks!
