Artfight for @rockwell-light and @vinnybox

So, future comic stuff. (This is probably not going to make headway until Kara and I get far, far into Soul-Bound, but I’m still super excited!!)

AXIS is a comic that takes place in the far future. Humans have expanded past the Milky Way and pushed boundaries to find more places to branch their growing empire. It may look beautiful with towering spires and space stations the size of planets, sparkling metal and flashing lights, but just because the human society has expanded, does not mean it’s free from the corruption inside it’s walls. 

The majority of the comic revolves around a Bounty Hunter– Ravaxis. He’s got millions of enemies, and few allies, but he finds a friend and companion in the least expected place; his own ship. Helios is added as an upgrade, an AI that can keep the Hunter’s home maintained and provide much needed insight to keeping the human alive, but perhaps there’s more to him than just being extra parts. With Ravaxis and Helios running from more than just other Hunters, but a large megacorp looking to take back stolen tech, they’ll learn that there’s more to each other than being on the run together.

——-

The Axis is the most common set of scenery, as it is not only Rav’s home, but his base of operations and getaway vehicle. It’s a small experimental ship with a lot more power than even it’s owner is aware of. Perhaps with Helios running its diagnostics, they’ll discover that the sleek spacecraft is more than more than pretty parts.

Smoke & Mirrors

The flashing lights, the pulsating music, the haze in the air... One of Voluntas’ favorite haunts were those where mortals lost themselves to their more carnal tendencies...

I am so sorry for my absence! Kara and I have been working nonstop of the scripting phase of our webcomic, so I haven’t been doing much art as of late… To make up for it, this last week I’ve been burning down the candle to make these! These are Soul Wines, and I had a lot of fun making them. Kara and I have been talking, and they’ll be stickers for sure, and possibly charms/keychains!!!

Here’s the excerpt we have for them. ^v^

Soul Wine.

Souls can be used in a variety of ways, but a common one for Demons to use is Soul Wine. It is a ‘wine’ that has the appearance of stars in a bottle, most of the time, the liquid is semi-transparent to not very, but can be seen through (look to: Apache Tears stones). Upon peering in, sometimes one can see a 'star’ or tiny ball of light– a soul. The wine is made by adding a minimum of 8 to thousands of souls in a bottle, and letting it keep for a number of years, after all of the souls’ essence has melded into the dark/transparent black color the wine is known for. 

A 'cheap’ wine is made when souls of the wrong kind of sin are put in the same bottle. It tastes poor, and like a gross mix of 'flavor.’   Humans and mortals cannot drink this wine, as the monstrous entity that is the combination of souls will attempt to overtake the drinker’s body, and add their soul to the concoction before possessing the empty shell. These die fast due to the lack of the correct host, but are extremely dangerous.  

Soul Wine can change in appearance, and there are different kinds for each sin. 

Wrath, for instance, is the darkest of the seven in color, and the bottle housing such aggressive souls will occasionally rattle with fury. The souls inside will sometimes take the appearance of hands attempting to break the glass.

Greed sometimes has a gold 'stars’ instead of white, and occasionally gems, currency, and precious metals will accumulate on the bottom. Don’t place your hand inside, or it will try to pull you in as well. This does not matter if you are a demon, immortal, or not. Drinking it is fine for immortals, but do not take things that are not yours.  

Lust smells like the things you already adore, normally the perfume of a person you love and/or the scent of your favorite place. It is the most aromatic of the seven drinks.  Drinking it sometimes makes you a little more truthful than you want to be. There are lipstick stains and lavender that appear on the inside, though this is not necessarily what it smells like.  

Looking into the bottle of Envy will make you see what you desire the most. Different than Lust, it shows you what you desperately want, and cannot have, or have yet to achieve. Glancing inside, sometimes you will see eyes watching you back. Green smoke billows from it.  

Gluttony is pitch black, and consumes light. Nothing glows from inside it, though there are souls within the mixture. Sharp teeth curl around the inside of the bottle, and will eat anything that falls into it. The more souls in a bottle of Gluttony, the more teeth there will be.

Pride is the lightest coloring of Soul Wine, and is known for its sparkle. It literally glitters as it’s poured into a glass, and occasionally rings and pear necklaces, and diamond earrings will fall out as well. The bottle radiates glowing light with a dark shadow underneath. Sometimes peacock feathers are inside.  

Sloth is thicker than the others, and pours out with the viscosity of honey. The souls in this bottle are larger than average and function in the glass like ice cubes, floating lazily to the top. If you squint, you can see text and words floating around. Sometimes these words grant inspiration, though you may have to battle with the desire to give any effort to such ideas. Sometimes sand gathers at the bottom.
