I love them.

First page sneak peek.

Around Christmas I made a quick bande-dessinée version of Nigredo to see how it'd look. It turns out I liked it more than the current version and spent the winter adapting it.

Process. :)

Although they end up all over each other later in the story, they got off to a rough start.

Eros and Thanatos. Happy Halloween! 🖤🩸

Playing around with some saturated colours for a more pulp-ish look. A slightly younger, happier Sera, plus two other characters from my webcomic.

Perhaps those beasts had a good reason to hunt her.

Some outfits I designed earlier this year. Seraphina (Sera) is an alchemist who works as a healer; the blue dress is her ‘work’ outfit, while the others are for different occasions and adventures throughout the story. She takes good care of her appearance, and changes her hairstyle fairly often.

I think this lip sync tutorial can still help many, so here you go :)

Borislav’s castle is filled with supernatural artifacts, staircases that defy gravity, and clocks that stopped ticking long ago.

I'm Pixie, artist and writer of Nigredo, an upcoming dark fantasy comic about Sera, a beloved healer from a small town who seeks the help of a vampire to uncover the truth behind the one affliction she cannot cure: her own rising bloodlust. I'll be posting updates and previews!

In my comic, vampires do reflect in mirrors, it's just that silver reveals their tainted nature.

Banner featuring Borislav, my OC and the ML of the comic I'm working on.

A vampire hunter and one of the main characters in my #webcomic. I absolutely love writing and drawing him.

I applied this especially to Borislav’s face, which was really intimidating to draw when I first started. Now, after hundreds of drawings, his face has become much easier and a lot more fun to work on.

I realised I was overusing straight-on views for my panels. Symmetrical faces are simpler to draw, but they tend to look a bit too stiff. Adding just a bit of an angle has made things more interesting and readable.

For some panels, I only made subtle changes, but in others, I redid the faces and perspective completely. I’m much happier with the expressions in this new style. And yes, Seraphina was not in a good mood.

After some thought, I decided to switch to a more "refined", slightly less cartoonish style. It feels like a better match for the tone of the story.

I designed this apothecary’s room as a reference for chapter two.

Just finished inking the first chapter. Now going back to the earlier pages to make some adjustments and keep the style consistent.
