Day 4 is exotic so I drew Nyneve from @mecha-nations and my podcast @saffronandperi

I couldn’t imagine her with long flowing hair, until it suddenly hit me: kraken hair!

112 is @saffronandperi!

Fantasy comedy. The show takes classic fairytale elements and transports them into a modern setting. Saffron is a fairy godmother, and Peri is a djinnia who works in the Magic Support Department - a kind of helpline that Saffron calls.

Four seasons, 6 or 7 episodes each. A fifth season is planned.

 Silence! The muse has called to me! I must write!

October Day 16 is grunge. I drew Nyneve, so here’s Rose Red. I talked it over with @mecha-nations and we agreed the grunge aesthetic would suit her perfectly!

[thejenjineer]

Inktober Day 14: Roam. Saffron roaming around and complaining about her roaming.

Fantasy comedy. The show takes classic fairytale elements and transports them into a modern setting - Saffron is a fairy godmother, and Peri is a djinnia. Peri works in the Magic Support Department, which Saffron calls when she needs help.

Another episode is coming out tomorrow! Are you listening all the way to the end? You might be missing out on some post credits scenes if you’re not!

The Forest of Forgetfulness mentioned in Episode 9

Alice forget her name but was almost sure it started with an ‘L’.

[saffronandperi]

I love this one! 

From @voicesofreasons via @poorlydescribedpodcasts

[saffronandperi]

This is Ruddy, a character appearing in season 5 (Unless I scrap what I’ve written so far but hopefully that won’t happen). He’s an inventor so I used him for the inktober prompt “Creation”
