Fan Art Friday (Loris/Moggle Edition)

Posted on by scott

Hello, and welcome to FAF, or perhaps I should say FAFF, as in Fan Art Friday Fortnightly. Indeed, I haven’t been posting much of anything lately, but that’s only because I’ve been working on a New S3krit Project! It’s a new novel with all new characters and stuff, and I’ve finally found my stride. IT IS GETTING WRITTEN.

“When will this novel be out?” you may ask.

Indeed, you may. But I don’t know yet. Maybe autumn of 2013, maybe a year after that. I know, that’s a long time. But novels are long things, and publishing timelines are even longer things, and I can tell you that this novel is probably going to be FAT. (Like, longer than any of my other books.)

As for all the other possible questions you might have, they must wait for another day. This particular s3krit project is still too fragile to be interrogated and explicated.

Also, it’s time for FAF! Since mentioning the unnamed-loris-with-mustache thread last time, I’ve gotten a lot of loris/Bovril/Moggle art. So really this is all about the sidekicks.

The first one is from Adam, and it’s a shot of the kraken scene in Leviathan.

It’s great to see that encounter from a distance.

I’ve also been getting some Shay’s Story fan art trickling in, which is totally cool. Keep it coming. Here’s a notebook doodle of Shay from Daliz:

I like that the Uglies character have manga versions now, whether with pigtails up or down.

The rest of today’s FAF is all lorises and Moggle in many different media! Thanks to everyone for sticking with a theme.

First, some Bovril/Moggle crossover from Phrancie:

They are clearly going to conquer the world together. Or run into a lamppost, maybe.

Next is the highly anticipated Moggle-with-a-mustache, again from Oskar and his Spore software:

Undercover Moggle is undercover. And jaunty.

And we also have photoshopped Bovril, or quasi-Bovril creature, from Rebecca:

If you’re going to wear a mustache, you should probably get a top hat. It’s funny because it’s true.

And in case you’ve forgotten what the real Bovril looks like, Alex offer this book-style rendering of the Bovril birth scene:

He totally gets Keith’s composition right. It’s cool how Bovril in that scene isn’t cute yet, more kind of new-born and weird. But then gets cuter and cuter as the series progresses.

Okay, that’s it. I’ll be back in two weeks with more FAF. And probably before then I’ll post something interesting, though I don’t know what.

Sydneysiders, don’t forget that net Saturday I’ll be at Free Comics Book Day at Kinokuniya! Here’s the FaceBook page for the event, and here are the details:

  16. none of my friends love UPSE they are more into THG I’m like “what’s wrong with you????” just wait until the movie comes out!

  24. Everyone thought my hair was done by a professional… I couldn’t stop laughing. I go to school with some supreme idiots.

  25. Pandora says artists similar to Franz Ferdinand are:
    Gotye
    Modest Mouse
    The White Stripes
    The Strokes

    Gotye? Really?

  26. Jacqueline was seventeen
    Working on a desk
    When Ivor
    Peered above a spectacle
    Forgot that he had wrecked a girl
    Sometimes these eyes
    Forget the face they’re peering from
    When the face they peer upon
    Well, you know
    That face as i do
    And how in the return of tha gaze
    She can return you the face
    That you are staring from

    It’s always better on holiday
    So much better on holiday
    That’s why we only work when
    We need the money

    Gregor was down again
    Said come on, kick me again
    Said i’m so drunk
    I don’t mind if you kill me
    Come on you gutless
    I’m alive
    I’m alive
    I’m alive
    And how i know it
    But for chips and for freedom
    I could die

    It’s always better on holiday…

  37. she was in a bad mood this morning and uh… I guess she didn’t really pay much attention to me. Probably a good thing. My dad saw though, he doesn’t really care 😉
