While we wrap up the code and assets for Jessie's story line, Little Librarian has been writing the finale of Grace's story. A key element of how it plays out is whether or not Grace will continue transforming even more into the form of a classical Uilepheist. Watsup kindly drew some concept art of what that might look like, and we wanted to share it with you!
On one hand, if Grace keeps ...

Bramble
Here we arrive at the edge of the forest, of the expansive fields, at the precipice of seeming normality. Perhaps your mother or grandmother, after baking off a fresh cake, or sipping her berry-hued cordial, warned you to stay clear of the bramble and its delicious berries. Perhaps you only thought her to be warning of the bushes' thick thorns, ... 2021-08-08 14:17:06 +0000 UTC View Post

One of three new backgrounds this chapter, this one was fun to draw because unlike the fictional setting of Ach-na-Creige, this place really existed! I got to exercise my history nerd muscles and did research to make sure Strathcarron's train station would look the way it did a hundred years ago. I'll be sure to share what I learned in glossary entries in-game!

Uruisg
The goat-hooved brùnaidh, the forest adventurer, the spritely uruisg. Much like their brethren faerie, the púca, the uruisg display an impish spirit, full of mischief-making, with a dash of cordiality. Elfish in visage and form, they work hard at being both troublesome and courteous in their actions.
These are roguish pi... 2021-07-06 02:58:44 +0000 UTC View Post

The water horse nay be a mischievous water spirit like the unpredictable Fuath. These shape-shifting beasts are creatures black as ink with souls as dark to match. The Kelpie rises from the watery depths of the lochs and rivers, just waiting to take hold of their next victim to feast upon.

Rather than write the scene and illustrate it according to the script like we normally do, we decided to let Wat create the most sumptuous images he could come up with and write the scene accordingly.
Wat came up with 35 sketches. Thirty-five of them. I think he likes Jessie!

Found lurking in the dark shadows of night, the untamed wolf will cast its steely eyes your way, and you’ll ne’er see the light of day again.

CalArts!
Polls show that the artistic style made popular by such animations as Adventure Time, Gravity Falls & Steven Universe better resonates with our audience than the highly detailed, fully shaded art we currently make.
