The good thing about not having that many irl friends/partners using bsky is that when I work on a surprise, I get to share it. So I have both the satisfaction of keeping it secret and the joy of sharing something I'm excited about at the same time. #watercolor #myart #bskyart

Two doodles showing a couple, the man resting his head on the woman's shoulder. Pen and watercolors on paper.

The thing with a part-time job as an artist is that you could spend your day off resting... or you could spend the night cooking a new illustration. I let you guess which one I picked. #Art #Watercolor #Illustration

Red Watercolor depicting what appears to be a wet face

So happy to have finally received my copy of Archeron by the one and only Ian Bertram. I lack the words to express how much Ian's art is inspiring. #IanBertram #Acheron

How do you draw women? When it comes to live model drawings, I wished I'd be doing them more often like this:

Charcoal on paper, drawing of a woman in her late 20s.

So much for the tolerant left. Currently doing a lil' action comic about a superhero kicking neonazis as training, and it's so cathartic. #PunchANazi #Comicsky

A neonazi receiving a kick in the face. The boot falls on him from above, projecting blood and teeth everywhere. Pentel inks on canson paper.

Hey there #PortfolioDay ! I'm Félix, a french comic-book writer, artist and illustrator; and my first graphic novel Les Cendres du Nord, a medieval romance, just hit the bookstores' shelves ⚔️ 📧: therover.felix@gmail.com #Comicsky #Art #Artsky #FantasyArt

The comic-book cover of my very first graphic novel, les Cendres du Nord, a romantic triangle taking place in 1069 during the Harrying of the North, shortly after Hastings. It is published by Les Editions Fedora and we're looking for an english publisher too!

A panel from Les Cendres du Nord. A dane soldier is taken away by walkyries during the battle of Stamford Bridge in 1066. As the rest of the comic, the art process consisted of pencils then rotring pen on paper for inks, then digital colors.

Another panel from Les Cendres du Nord. Two of the main characters, Arnbjörn and Ælfhild are hugging, laying in a bed next to a fire. This panel is a reference to Greg Smallwood and Tom King's Human Target for DC comics.

An illustration I made of a knight queen and a soldier kissing in the middle of explosions, their love braving the end of the world. Guns, arrows, swords and warplanes fly around them. Pentel brush on paper for the inks, then digital colors.

Félix the Rover@therovercomics· Apr 13

Another artwork from my comic for Pit of Eden! I loved designing and drawing that odd creature. Inspirations came from Giacometti and Rodin's sculptures, Wartales' troglodytes, and Dr Manhattan's behaviour. You can kickstart the anthology right here: www.kickstarter.com/projects/mal... 16 days left!

Comic book frame, a clay creature walking between the branches. Black and white. Rotring, inks on canson paper.

Here's some art coming straight from my pages for #PitOfEden, the upcoming non-binary horror comics anthology about Babylonian Mythology that you can bake on Kickstarter right now! Had a lot of fun on that frame with the pool reflection. #Comics #IndieComics #Comicsky

Comic book frame. Black and white, rotring pen inks on paper. A creature walking on a forest's ground. It's foot touching a puddle of water. It's body reflects in it, alongside trees and birds.

Une dédicace pour un ami qui m'a grandement soutenu pendant la réalisation des Cendres du Nord. Merci Chris ! A sketch for a friend that supported me during all the process for Les Cendres du Nord, thanks Chris! #BD #Comics #BandeDessinée

Illustration, encre sur papier canson. Rotring et acrylique. Un chevalier blessé à cheval, il tient les rennes d'une main et sa blessure au flanc de l'autre. Il saigne également de la tête. Il porte une côte de mailles et une épée à la ceinture. En bas une signature avec écrit "pour Chris!"

La joie en sortant sa première BD d'avoir les ami.e.s qui m'envoient petit à petit leurs photos et leurs retours ! Mes personnages et leurs émotions deviennent soudainement tangibles, ils existent dans d'autres têtes que la mienne. Quelle gratification 🗡️🛡️ #BD #BandeDessinee

Une amie montrant son exemplaire des Cendres du Nord, ma BD qui vient de paraitre aux éditions Fedora. La couverture présente un couple se prenant dans les bras, allongés dans la neige, avec des armes anglo-saxonnes éparpillées autour, une motte castrale à l'horizon sur un couché de soleil.

"The world is trash and everything collapse. Feeling like war will come back to finish the job. And then there's you. Quiet peace in the chaos." #Art #Kiss #Passion #Comics #GraphicNovel

Illustration of a passionnate kiss. A futuristic sci-fi soldier making out with a queen knight in the middle of an explosion. Swords, bombs, planes and arrows fly around. A black hole forms behind the lovers. Pentel brush pen on canson paper and digital art through psd photoshop. The characters are of a greyish dark blue, the background is purple and red and the explosions orange and yellow. A valentine's day gift that wasn't meant as one at first. A very pleasant memory.
