SoftSeaside @ Polaris B4 133

Hee hee hoo hoo!

A comic page from KEEPING TIME. Daniel, a Japanese American man, sits on stage at a grand piano and stares out in disbelief at Denver, a blond punk with a neck tattoo who looks equally stunned. A caption title says, "CHAPTER 1: 2:45 AM"

A second panel. Denver llifts the lid of a dumpster, while two figures stand behind him in a dark alleyway.

A third panel. Denver lights both his cigarette and that of Daniel's. Denver says, "I'm impressed, y'know," while Daniel answers with a, "Hmm?"

A final panel. Denver motions towards Daniel with his lit cigarette while Daniel smiles gently.

There are now 3 full chapters (that's 106 pages!!) of completely free-to-read KEEPING TIME, the queer, slow burn between two former friends and now current bandmates who - for better or worse - fall in love.

Katha様 @taxkha.bsky.social のIkeSoren漫画「Hourglass of Decenniums」を日本語翻訳させていただきました…！
Decenniumsとは、ラテン語のdecades（十年の複数形）とのことで、日本語にはあまりない言葉でしたので、あまりなじみがない言葉ではありますが、十と星霜（長い年月を表す言葉）を繋げ、「十星霜の砂時計」とタイトルをつけました。

翻訳の機会をくださったKatha様、angie様 @charmwitch.bsky.social Thank you so much‼‼

If you stop drawing, who will draw your ocs??

An illustration of various flowers from JRR Tolkien's Middle Earth, drawn and arranged in the style of vintage flower posters.

🍃 Flora of Middle Earth 🍃

Another piece for my fandom flower posters. I really enjoyed working on this one in particular though, since I grew up surrounded by Tolkien's work!~

For all my german followers: Ready for a new weird and exciting animation series made in Germany? :D Have a look at "Task Force Querlitz", starting TODAY here: www.zdf.de/animation/ta... Even cooler: my dear friend and awesome artist @straussdraws.bsky.social was a creative part of this project! 🙌🤩

Image shows a dude with black hair and tattoos sitting on top of a wall. He smokes a cigarette and wears cargo green pants and black shoes.

Someone on patreon requested me to draw Vin and this is what I came up with 💞

Patrons can request a little drawing from me (oc, fanart, whatever) after 6 months of joining the 6€ tier 🫶🏼 I went a bit over the top with this one, but I can’t resist if it‘s my own oc!

Ideal conditions for starting your passion project will never come. You will never feel skilled enough to make it. There will never be a moment where you stop being scared to start. Do it anyway. Do it badly. Do it scared. Just make that thing that’s clawing at the door of your soul; It wants out.

wait guys I think human connection might be the meaning of life

You have to Yap you have to say why you made them you have to draw them, you have to love them!!

Art friends: Here's a tip for getting rid of *a lot* of the AI slop in your Pinterest feed.

⭐Go into your account settings.
⭐Click the "Refine your recommendations" tab.
⭐Click the GenAI Interests subtab.
⭐TURN OFF EVERYTHING.

So far, my feed is *significantly* cleaner.

A comic where a starved and dehydrated looking creature is desperately wheezing as they draw a picture. The next panel, you see that they have drawn their OTP kissing. In the last panel, the creature puts the drawing in their mouth, emphasized with the word 'nam'.

everyday i feel like this

Hehehe, it was so nice to meet you 🫶 see you tomorrow!

A close up photo of my table at Polaris, full of prints and stickers.

A photo of the shared table of me and my friend at Polaris Convention. It's pretty colourful with all the different prints!

Tadaaa, my friend @softseaside.bsky.social and my table setup! We're already back home, preparing some last minute stuff, but I want to get a good nights sleep for tomorrow. I'll also bring my camera with me and make some better photos then! :)

Drawing of Alena Braune’s and SoftSeaside’s personas on a ship that sails to the right. Alena’s persona wears a sailor outfit while she is rowing, and SoftSeaside’s persona holds a telescope in one hand while saluting with the other hand. They are smiling and looking excitedly ahead. A big sign is in front of the ship, pointing in the same direction as the ship is sailing in. The sign reads “POLARIS. Your creative universe. Hamburger Messe. 10 - 12 OCT 2025.” Next to the ship, a shark and a blushing duck, SoftSeaside's mascot called Side, are swimming in the water. The shark says, “Let’s sea us there!” Side wears a raincoat with a flower attached to it.

Exciting news, everyone! We, @alenabraune.bsky.social & @softseaside.bsky.social, will be sharing a booth at @polarisconvention.bsky.social on the 10th- 12th October! You can find us in Hall B4 table 133 on the first floor. We are super excited and can’t wait to SEA you there! 😊
