We are approaching the maximum of images you can post here so I thought it was time I make a little showcase of all the formation pieces we covered so far on the streams.
For people who don't know: for several months now I draw one formation or fossil locality every Saturday. The next place we visit is chosen by a wheel of names, which we also constantly fill up again when a new formation is picked.
I try to make it as interesting as possible in my composition and choice of animals and I can tell you this series has been a great training when it comes to constructing these, how I call them, Menageries.
I have to thank a team of friends and colleagues who help behind the scenes with research, creation of size charts and conversation partners when it comes to deciding on the compositions of these pieces. Their help has been invaluable!

The news has me feeling quite shitty, so I’m simply sitting here and thinking about my many many characters. Especially my optimistic characters, like Althea Kismet, aka Theo
She’s an undead wizard who was connected deeply to the always twisting and weaving strands that made up fate and as such was blessed with prophecy who made peace with her relatively short life at an early age, having foreseen her own passing and making the choice to use her gift and short time to do as much good with them as she could.
Returned to life against her will by her younger sister in a moment of weakness fueled both by jealousy and grief, Theo doesn’t feel the same connection to fate that she once did.
She came back wrong in body and spirit, with her divination powers only showing her the worst fates or a hollow emptiness and her new habit of pulling too hard and popping off an arm on accident.
Lost without the secure comfort of having an understanding of what fate holds ahead that she felt her entire life, Theo does what she knows she can do, pick herself up, try to do some good and help who she can again, while seeking a way to return to her peaceful afterlife and enjoy being able to walk with the living, however temporary, once more.
