The Reaper's Rose (Faux) Cover Art
Mochi Turtle now has a new name! And an actual plot that I'm working on (ish, I still plan on finishing Garden of Sandstorms and Evergreen's Leit before I get to this one). So I decided to make a fake noir/pulp book cover for it. Cause it fits the aesthetic quite a bit.
Summery on the back of the book:
"Detective Amelija Hunthrak* finally got the gig of a lifetime, when a rich and powerful Harpy stepped into her office for a proposal. 'Find out what my husband has been doing, and if you can; save him'. While on the job, she meets quite the oddity, a Dwarvish Assassin named Jakzün Adüm*. Or so he says.
Is he friend? Or Foe? Or... more?"
*ah-meh-lee-yah hoon-thrahk
*yahk-zuhn ah-duhm

Really proud of this sketch. Had to show it off before I possibly ruin it by rendering it, lmao.

more fantasy games should pepper in as many dialects & accents as possible with no explanation instead of making everyone vaguely British

Curi•sity
Trying to capture some really abstract concepts here since my OCs are personifications of emotions/feelings and grief is a big part of Biddley's storyline! This was a fun exercise hehe
