*caveat: this works best in small sizes—anything big will probably need a more complex stitching setup, end papers, and sturdier book covers. My tiny books have been measuring about 1.5x2.2 cm, and .4 cm thick
there is just no way you hand lettered an entire fic i mean come on
Like. I can't tell if this is supposed to be cheeky or shitty, anon, since there are no emoji or tone indicators to let me know. I'm going to give you the benefit of the doubt that you were not being an asshole, though. And I went ahead and recorded a little video of the book, my beat up supplies, AND a quick little process clip of me doing the lettering just for you to see that I did, in fact, hand letter an entire fic. It was 1469 words and I did the math to figure out that came out to about 9100 (ish) characters. I have had some truly fantastic tags on my original post because it broke containment a bit and was reblogged by some fanbinders. So thank you so much for anyone who commented/liked/reblogged this project (and any of my fanARTifact projects). It makes the many, many, MANY hours of work very worth it to see you scream at me in the tags lol.
Type Map for A Day of Fallen Night by Samantha Shannon 🐉
The prequel in the Roots of Chaos series which I absolutely loved. An epic women-centric, queer, sweeping fantasy story that takes place in a Queendom (not a kingdom) with dragons, intrigue, romance, magic and a battle for the ages. Glorian Shieldheart is my favorite character and I could not help but draw her in her armor.
