Contains 3 chapters : Aros and a local hunter clash about how to address a malicious spirit holding the village hostage. It won't go well for one of them... Having met his quota for the month, Aros has a meeting with the God of death himself. What does he want this time? Meanwhile, someone is sneaking around eavesdropping. So rude! Then, Aros makes a deal with a mysterious small bird before heading off with Ren to begin the siege of West Village. Hokoe follows Koko deep into the mountains, and gets a bit more than he bargained for.

Love the somber and ominous atmosphere of Godsbane! I can't wait to see the path Aros walks, even if it's a murky one! 🌙🌾☁️

I enjoyed the tension between everyone in this chapter! The darkness featured in Godsbane is an alluring one! 🌠🌌✨

@dreaming4u: Thank you! I try to take care with them. maybe too many details sometimes lol

ArtCrumbs admin 1 year ago

@cicadashells: Thanks! It's gonna get more tense over time as Aros is asked to do even worse things. I don't know how he's gonna get himself out of the hole he's dug for himself.

How do you turn your drawings to digital image

ArtCrumbs admin 10 months ago

@prince: I share links and promote it to my followers on Twitter, YouTube, Bluesky, Discord, and Reddit. sometimes my friends share it as well and that can help. Self-Promotion can take a lot of effort, but it is worth it in my opinion.

@prince: First, I drew this on the computer with a Wacom Tablet and Clip Studio Paint EX software. secondly, I do draw on paper for other things, and when I need to get it on the computer, I use a scanner. If I don't have a scanner, I take a photo in a well-lit place with lots of light with a digital camera or my phone (last resort).

@prince - If you go into your creator settings you'll see a page that says "Payouts and Revenue". Once your payout amount reaches 30$, you'll be able to withdraw it to your paypal or stripe-linked account, which you can also set up in your creator settings.

The art is beautiful! I am not sure if it's traditional or digital, but many of the panels have a lovely traditional feel to it

ArtCrumbs admin 2 weeks ago

Ah thank you @natireads! Sorry for the late reply, I thought I'd already responded. The artwork here is all digital made in Clip Studio EX. It's takena while to figure out how to create that look and feel, but I'm happy you like it.
