We’re at the end of January, and I’m figuring out my art goals for 2025 (finally!) I’ve come to the conclusion that I’m still not 100% clear on these goals, and it’s probably okay. So they are not so much actual goals as… directions? “At War’s Edge” Going Forward Definitely…
“Finalize the recent history of the town of Shelisk”, said I. And cheerfully proceeded to: The end result is: now I know that the Shelisk citadel was always meant for a steward rather than for a local magnate, so any heraldry present will be related either to the crown of…

The two characters had been standing with arms crossed, and then heard Very Unexpected News. This is the reaction shot which I feel worked out, so I’ll just leave it here to be proud of. Or possibly to be ashamed of, a few years down the line. The (yet missing)…
