wtf do people without fandoms do with their life? like actually what do you do when you don’t have something to dangerously obsess over. the last time i wasn’t a part of a fandom was in fourth grade.

Meet the Artist: @septembersart

Hi guys! My name is Jenna, and I’m a South African artist based in the US. I’ve just stumbled out of a fancy traditional art university earlier this year, and am learning how to make art for myself again. For me, that takes the form of turning my favorite book series into a (fake) video game, and filling every inch of my sketchbook with post-it notes, stickers, and tracing paper. I’m very into vintage print, dynamic characters, and retro tech, all of which can be found in Space Soda, the webcomic I’m planning on releasing this year! I’ve been on tumblr for about 7 years, and I love the community I’ve found here. I’m very grateful for everyone who’s supported me on my art journey, especially those who gave a few likes to those wonky photos of my sketchbook so long ago.

Nice to meet you, Jenna! Below are some art pieces she has picked out to feature.

Check out more of Jenna’s work over at her Tumblr, @septembersart!

one of my favorite parts of the lunar chronicles has always been how batshit insane it is. just the the genuine unhingery. the main character kidnaps her love interest from his wedding. said love interest stabs his arranged bride (a murderous dictator) with scissors at the altar. cress and thorne stay at an inn in the middle of the desert, and while he’s fucking around gambling she gets kidnapped into an underground medical experimentation human trafficking ring and bought by her long lost father. there’s evil moon people. scarlet and wolf get it on in a boxcar after like two days of knowing each other. 4/9 of the main cast aren’t human. cinder crashes kai’s wedding (again), murders twenty people, and jumps off a ten story balcony into a lake. kai keeps cinder’s metal foot so he can stare at it and long after her while she’s a wanted fugitive. cress fangirls over and stalks her outlaw crush on the internet for years and then bags him when they meet. not one of them is over twenty or mentally sound btw. no other YA series is doing it like that. applause

Probably one of the most iconic moments for Cinder, and not just because of the subverted Cinderella imagery. She, the emperor’s personal guest, has just crashed headlong into a manicured tree in the (populated) Imperial courtyard, full speed, in a vehicle (definitely not street legal) that hasn’t been seen in well over a century. And when a palace worker helps her out of the wreckage she’s like, “he’s judging me for the dirty dress :/“ Like bestie I promise that is the least of his problems right now

Thorne, thinking that Scarlet is Princess Selene bc she has no hospital records: I've connected the dots

Cinder, actually Princess Selene: You haven't connected shit

Thorne: I've connected them

WOAH WOAH WOAH WOAH WOAAAAHHHHH

LUNAR CHRONICLES MOVIE SCRIPT???

[iambecomeafangirl]

„Lunars were a society that had evolved from an Earthen moon colony centuries ago, but they weren’t human anymore. People said Lunars could alter a person’s brain—make you see things you shouldn’t see, feel things you shouldn’t feel, do things you didn’t want to do”.

and some sketches

The Lunar Chronicles is so funny because at one point the cyborg character sustains water damage and she wakes up to find out one of her friends suggested putting her head in rice

the moon queen & her getaway pilot

OKAY I couldn't find these anywhere on tumblr so here they are. Full credit to Frostbite studios on insta for these jaw-droppingly gorgeous pieces. This was the best quality I could find.

Cinder again!!!

Shout out to all the books that were labeled YA simply because they were written by women but actually contained dark and complex storylines. Those changed my life fr.

Comic Adaptation of "Cinder" Chapter 1!

Hello world! I finally decided to post a comic adaptation of the first chapter. Since the language of my books is not English, I had to do the translation using Google Translate, which is why this translation may contain errors and be approximate (if someone has English versions of the books and you want to help me with a normal translation write to me).At the moment, I am already working on other chapters (I drew this chapter about six months ago, but I am posting it only now.)

P.S. I drew it with love 〒▽〒
