Well, CoP2 is over and-

It ended like I knew it would.

Trystan abdicated immediately, giving the crown to Lydea and now he's back in New York with Detective Rose, and their friends have finally figured out that golly gosh the fake romance ploy they use is actually very real.

Luke was somehow shocked. (He's so cute, PB better reuse his sprite as an LI in the future dammit)

I definitely enjoyed the book, more for the character writing than the mystery element (because the mystery was the weakest part, honestly) and I'm looking forward to COP3 when it drops. I do wish Pixelberry had drawn the book out for another week or two rather than dropping the last 3 chapters over a few days, but I know they've got other books they want to focus on for the weeks ahead.

I hope the next book has a bit more mystery like the first one did (though I called one of the killers in that pretty early) and less focus on how whacky Trystan's family was.

But for now I'm sad because there's no more chapters to look forward to. 😭

This is one of my main characters from the Pixelberry game Choices from the VIP book Crimes of Passion. This is also the same look I used in my playthrough of Veil of Secrets. I originally posted this on Reddit but I felt this one deserved some time here on my IG. The black and gray tones highlight the fact that this character is not to be trifled with, if the Taser, Bulletproof Vest and the Pepper Spray aren't enough. CoP does bring out the detective side of things and it is a compelling book to playthrough. #inkart #inkdrawing #inked #ink #inkillustration #illustration #illustrator #characterart #characterdesign #fanart #drawing #draw #art #artwork #artoftheday #artofinstagram #artistsoninstagram #artistoninstagram #artist #penillustration #penandink #colorsoftheworld #asian #pixelberrystudios #playchoices #crimesofpassion #crimesofpassionchoices #detective #practicemakesprogress https://www.instagram.com/p/Cf1pNJTBuqZ/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Fake Artist Bio - Luiza Prado

Luiza Jesus Prado (stagename: Hifa Cybe) is a transdisciplinary artist born in Guaratingueta, Brazil, in 1988. Although her experiments in employing a plethora of mediums are impressive for onlookers and critics alike, it is the chilling narratives behind her work that make her an artist of interest.

Since 2016, Prado has enlisted her alter-ego - 'Hifa Cybe' - to animate love, loss, angst, and grief in her work. A photoseries called 'Sinto Muito (I'm so sorry)' depicts the process of writing letters to a dead lover. The conspicuous presence of blood and meaty, sculptural elements resembling human flesh have successfully stirred conversations surrounding intent amidst art critics - has Hifa's (or rather, Prado's) lover been murdered? Are there more ominous realities concealed under what the viewer can digest?

Prado plays with these reviews and reactions all the same. She employs subliminal messaging via her 'sordid' imagery and somber titles to breathe a somewhat dangerous and unstable persona into Hifa. In I Miss You (2017), she wholly embodies Hifa to ritualistically burn her love letters in what appears to be an anti-demonic prayer ring. The viewers are left to ponder on whether this translates to Hifa gaining closure for the mistakes of a past lover, or if they've conversely witnessed Hifa begging for redemption/forgiveness after committing an unspeakable crime of passion.

More recently, Prado's ideations seem to have shifted from exposing Hifa's story to introspecting on her part in it. Works such as Girl With The Gas Mask (2020) and Psylocybin (2020) address the constant paranoia that subsumes Hifa, who, in living in guilt from doing something still unknown to Prado's audience, resorts to self-medicating with narcotics. Needless to say, the artist indubitably posesses the artistic direction, vision, and patience it takes to create (and curate) a wonderfully mysterious and layered 'second life' in her portfolio.

Aug. 5, 1980: Pat Benatar released her Crimes Of Passion record.
