On Stone Magic
Hm. Yeah, this was a needed distraction from the atrocity called Waverider. 💀
Notes:
Really needed an excuse why I draw the stonekeepers using elements in my art, ended up getting carried away!
[1] The outfits they're wearing is around post book-4 or 5. My rewrite I jumbled things around, so technically in this timeline he should be wearing his armor in the og series. It's intentional he looked uncomfortable in it. It's a revamped design of his fit in book 6.
[2] Magical fire can only be dispersed by magic. It'll burn forever otherwise. Guess what Emily used on Ippo.
[3] We never really see Emily be silly or undignified, and to me, that's what she was lacking on why she didn't leave much of an impression nor appeal to me. this is an attempt to make it seem like she's still just a kid learning and stumbling and getting into embarrassing situations.
Still haven't finalized the design on Max, but I have some idea. If you noticed, he has the same collar as Trellis, meaning Trellis borrowed some Cielan attire before discovering a healer's robe, which is more elf-like attire.
[4] Trellis's magic may seem silly or trivial than say, what Emily developed to give her advantage in combat. It may also give you the impression he just did it to have an easier time for chores. But if you dig a bit deeper, that's extremely useful magic, especially for a society like Alledia.
[5] the Elf King didn't show up on the other scale because we don't know his level of skill. Other than that, he's insanely powerful.
[6] Every other stonekeeper can manifest both if they're skilled enough, but Trellis was the first to perfect a defensive style and do it consistently.
[7] Just a nice lil joke. Also, Max is wielding an ice pickax that can split into two or combine. Very dangerous.
You can tell I've been rereading wha and dungeon meshi for this.

Considering the success of the Percy Jackson TV series, I do hope this graphic novel series is adapted at some point.

Art summary of 2023
*announcer voice* and with that, the 2023 season comes to an end!
Based on this tweet
notes:
wow, this might be the year where I made the least amount of artworks! I somehow managed to eke out at least one work per month, which is something. Busy otherwise, the current state of the art community with AI and such... That certainly didn't help in motivating me 💀 and I've been busy desperately trying to share information on twitter.
that said, I think I've reached a level of skill enough that I opted into taking my time when drawing to carefully craft it than ending up sloppy bc I prioritized being finished. And I ended up liking that slow process better. It's nice being able to look back at your art and not be filled with regret because you could've done it better.
I am in the process of drawing stickers to sell!! It's taking some time because I'm not just making for one fandom, and making prints and photocards is also part of the plan. I think I'm making good progress though.
Here's to a better year!

"Armor and Walls"
(Press the images for better quality)
AMULET BY KAZU KIBUISHI IS MY ROMAN EMPIRE
A while back, after the release of book 9, I started chatting with @motherstone (an INCREDIBLE artist, even if you're not an amulet fan you GOTTA check his art out) and he shared this idea he had for a comic that he wanted to make but didn't really have the time to at that moment.
And me, lowkey loving the concept, proposed the idea that I make the comic for him as a gift.
This is the result.
-Concept credits go ENTIRELY to motherstone, from Emily's and Trellis' designs to the script
-I did the art and modified a bit of the script
-And obviously, all of the characters were created by Kazu Kibuishi and belong to him and Scholastic, along with Amulet as a whole. This is fanart inspired by the series.

What was lost | Faces, faces | From one mother... | What remains
Additional notes:
Page 1-2: Gulfen was suffering a drought at that time, and Trellis’s mother and her brother were hoping to seek help from Valcor to get some water in their village. The elven elder Trellis is talking to has a birthmark, and it’s the same man on page 4.
The Western part of Gulfen is more of a desert because of the mountain ranges. The Eastern part is more diverse in terms of biomes.
Page 3-4: Some of the poses here are referenced from the Children’s Bible Story Book, because I was going insane. I’m drawing this for fun, not profit, so I had to make my work as efficient and as fast as possible while maintaining its quality.
The two soldiers are a commander and her 2nd-in-command. In elven pan-culture, nicking, cutting half, or cutting off the entire ears is to indicate that that person is a criminal, depending on the severity of the crime. A variation of the punishment is also cutting off the nose in some areas.
The Elf King took several prisoners off of death row and life sentences to further bulk up his army with vicious people, and the commander was one of the few officers willing to take that criminal under her command.
Page 5-6: Virgil and Luger cameo. I like to think Virgil played a part in why Trellis gets spared, and Luger is the one taking him away.
I will add analysis notes after I posted all the parts, to show further depth in the comic, but other than that, I'll keep it at a minimum, for now.

The biggest thing that pisses me off about book 8 of Amulet, Super Nova, is the confrontation between Ikol and Emily is anticlimactic as fuck.
She took off his mask and he died?! That’s it? Are you kidding? My elementary school self didn’t even like that which is saying a lot because most of the time when I was a kid, I couldn’t tell the difference between lazy writing and good writing; all I cared about was cool visuals.
There wasn’t even a fight scene, unless you count when Emily electrocuted some of the palace guards, which wasn’t even a fight scene since she DID NOT have to struggle at all. She pulled off his damn mask and he disintegrates like a vampire in the sunlight. And I have said this once and I’ll say it again, if it was that easy to defeat the elf king/Ikol, WAS HE EVEN A DAMN THREAT? Answer: F NO!
What also frustrates me is that it wasn’t a big deal. Again, the entire point of the revolution was to take down the elf king and when they learn that he is dead, they don’t give two flying monkeys’ asses about it. And it’s frustrating because they had so much build up from it, even from the very first book, which did not give a lot of information of the world around them, mentioned and talked about how treating the Elf King was. And you’re going to tell me, that the big threat now is some stupid shadows?!
Verdict? Super Nova made terrible choices that created bad writing from a storytelling perspective and makes me want to scream.

Reading time with these two is always so tedious, at least for Emily 🤠

Anyway, haven’t drawn these two for a while so here you go
