(Ana) ~ a daydream based on Ch 18 and 19 of The Visitor (AO3) - drawn in Procreate ✍️
✍️ Tonight I‘ve been working on some digital drawing techniques and process learned from the @liliyth tutorials I did yesterday as well as trying out some of her brushes in Procreate. I‘m not sure the finished result looks like Melissa in the end, but I was trying to capture the coy mood of the reference (swipe left and please let me know if you know who to credit for it - I found it on Pinterest and now can‘t find the original source 😬). The brushes are ace and I am loving experimenting with liliyth‘s process and style. BIG fan of hers.
Just chillin’ with my favourite vamp in Procreate. This one is not a photo mashup, it’s drawn from scratch using LHR brushes and the grid method, which is definitely the only thing I am capable of! Everything freehand just goes seriously out of whack.
The reference pictures are from @asgoodeasgold (for MG behind the scenes in Abigail) and Pinterest. He’s ended up with a slightly weird smirk but never mind. We live and learn. And maybe he’s just smirking at Joey 🙃…
Kawaii Vamps - Abigail Style
❤️🧛🧛♀️❤️ (made these using Procreate - borrowed the epic characters from Abigail 2024 - obvs!)
CYMB Lazar. Just ‘cos.
Used the Jake Spicer Scrawlrbox 115 and this reference image from Downton Abbey.
Saw this (during the current re-run) and cannot stop thinking about it. So very, very, very funny.
And, also, Andrew Scott’s arms…

Vampire and his prey mood board, using stills from ADOW, Abigail and random photo edits I made. It gets me when the stag kneels down and accepts his fate/submits to the predator.
And here’s a random rambling about Joey and Lazaar, which I wrote today because I was unwell and couldn’t go out: https://archiveofourown.org/works/59486872 It flows from the photo edit of them lounging on the couch above… and a comment made by the wonderful @pleasereadmeok 🖤❤️🩶 I’m not sure the fic even makes sense. But it’s just for fun… so there you go.

Yep, Lazar. Still. 🧛✍️❤️
⬆️ Fan Photo Collage using extract from A Discovery of Witches by Deborah Harkness and stills from the TV Show
I was out and about yesterday and found a well-loved copy of ‘A Discovery of Witches’ in the local train station book swap.
⬆️ A Discovery of Witches by Deborah Harkness (p175)
Part of me wanted to leave it for someone else to discover the absolute magic (literal and figurative) of it; part of me was delighted with the connective sign from the universe and part of me grabbed it with both hands as I’ve lent my copy out and am really missing it. I delved into it straight away and got wonderfully lost for the entire train journey.
To celebrate, I edited together a little extract (p175), just for fun, which tries to capture the delectable sensory overload to be found in the writing and the show itself. Can’t really put into words how much I love it.
