It has a picture of a moon with clouds and stars on the left side, with the hues of green and blue, and on the right side it has a sun with pastel orange and yellow, with a pink-orange background.

Traditionally drawn and digitally colored artwork depicting a shirtless human male character, wearing viking era style trousers. There is a small black bird sitting on the character's shoulder.
I wanted to research for accurate trousers for the time period and turns out their seams can look somewhat silly, but it is what it is.

I've been so busy doing other stuff, I miss my comic so much...

Oh wow, thank you! ❤️
Partial preview of a comic page, showing a group of people discussing.
I'm nonbinary + ace and make historical/fantasy comic about a group of people living in a weird village.
It's still on hiatus while I build a buffer, but I'm planning to continue updating this year!
(My main account is @tuonenkalla.bsky.social but I think for the starter pack this one's better.)
Traditional pencil sketches of different human characters in various poses, all wearing viking era style clothing.

Did some croquis to practice clothing and especially all those folds of the fabrics - they're so stressful sometimes!

There are multiple characters that will never have part in Birds Who Sing by the Graves' timeline BUT who are important for the main cast before or after the story.
I have plans to eventually make extra short comics about these relationships once the main story is done.
(Whenever that'll happen.)
I want to share this ever evolving monster of an inspiration playlist 🤍

Artwork of a human character sitting beside a tree, accompanied by hooded crows. Traditionally made lineart, digital colors. The human has a face mask-headress made of a deer skull and feather "pelt" covering his hair and neck. His face is not visible at all. He has green shirt in a viking age style, dark brown trousers and lighter brown shoes. He has 6 hooded crows around him, one sitting in his lap and one landed on his hand.
Rauno-Kai and his flock of hooded crows 🐦

Artwork with traditional lineart and mixed media digital colors, depicting two human male characters laying down on the bed, without clothing. Not much is shown, blankets cover both well and the focus on their loving gaze to each other.
I'm not going to lie, these two are my personal favorites among the comic's characters. There are a lot of sad and oppressive themes through the story so it's soothing to have at least some who are mostly happy with their lives.

Artwork with traditional lineart and digital colours depicting two different human characters: On the left is Kaarlo, a young boy who is light skinned with dark, short hair in a small ponytail. He's sitting, leaning back eyes closed, and he has beige shirt, brown pants and terracotta and lighter brown shoes. His clothing are viking era style. A black bird is sitting on his shoulder. On the right is a portrait of Aleks, who is light skinned with long open white hair and beard. He has light brown shirt and bronze brooch to held it closed.
KAARLO is a young boy who is as quick on his feet as he's mysterious. Few of the villagers can understand him but he's well loved.
ALEKS is the moral leader of the town. While the townsfolk are equal and democratic, some guidance is never a bad thing - or is it?
#comic #introduction
Artwork with traditional lineart and digital colours depicting three different human characters: On the left is Saarni who is light-skinned with braided dusty beige hair, they have warm light brown viking era style clothing. They're turning toward the right side of the image. In the middle is Ivar who is light-skinned with blonde long hair, braided on the top and side shaves. Also some beard on his shin. He's shirtless and on his side an ornamental tattoo can be seen. Ivar is sitting down and leaning on a table, facing left. On the right is the third character Joonatan who is light-skinned with dark curly hair open and reaching his shoulders. He also has beard. It's a side portrait image of him, facing left, and he has dark shirt.
SAARNI is slow to warm up and keeps to themselves, but are nice when you get to know them!
IVAR keeps the spirit of everyone high, he's always active, inventive and social.
JOONATAN is another introvert of the town, a gentle giant with steady personality and strong loyalty.

Artwork with traditional lineart and digital colours depicting two different human characters: On the left is a portrait of Inger, who is light skinned with yellowish-reddish hair going gray. Her hair is on a bun, and she wears green and yellow viking era clothing. On the right is Salma, a colored woman with dark brown curly medium-length hairpartly tied with a braid. She's smiling. She's also wearing viking era clothing in the shades of green and terracotta.
INGER can be strict but she's resourceful and always on time and ready, often handling work of others as well. She takes care of Kaarlo.
SALMA is a sunshine, trying to find positivity wherever she can. She's capable and fast to act when she sees opportunities to better her life

Artwork with traditional lineart and digital colours depicting two different human characters: On the left is grandma Inga getting firewood, on the right is old man Unto. Inga is smiling, Unto looks very displeased. Both are wearing viking era style clothing.
INGA is the grandma of the whole village, always happy and making sure everyone is comfortable. She can be a little forgetful, but means well.
UNTO is the grumpiest of the villagers, and he will always be displeased with absolutely everything! These two can't stand each other.

Artwork with traditional lineart and digital colours depicting two different human characters: On the left is sitting Jiena, who is light skinned and white haired, wearing viking era style clothing. She appears to be sad and in her own thoughts. On the right is a halfbody portrait of Rauno-Kai, a person who hides his face and head behind a deer skull and feather headress. He's leaning onto a tree, and wears green viking era style shirt.
JIENA is the character through whom we start exploring the new world. She's confused and unsure of her surroundings, but who wouldn't in her shoes?
RAUNO-KAI is the first person - or creature? - she sees after her arrival. His ominous appearance raises more questions.
