I wasn't using that anyway. And I note that that suspiciously friendly devil has made himself scarce lately.

This dress is actually from 1897, but I think we can all overlook a small anachronism in the name of fashion when it suits Zaffre so perfectly.

I contemplated what Zaffre would look like with a moustache. Along the line I rediscovered the fact that they do not need to have a grin taking up half their skull to be recognisable.
zaffre how does your hair work
do you put indigo on all of your hair
are you just a naturally blue-haired mutant
what is your DEAL

Selfydolls: Zaffre Mark II
the blush certainly stands out more on this skintone, doesn’t it
i maintain that they’re blushing luminescently because they’re thinking about butt-fucking

So then I was like “what if brown Zaffre” and I think it turned out p well (I have a longstanding fondness for character designs with brown skin and brightly colored hair)
also in the pencils Zaffre’s facial expression was like “PEOPLE WHO HAVE BEEN AWAKE FOR SO LONG THEY NO LONGER HAVE BOUNDARIES” but it looks less terrifying in ink and marker

A blade. A firearm. A large bucket of water. It feels odd to take these armaments to hunt a man, but the bucket pays dividends when the Anarchist confronts you with a lit bomb and a torrent of anti-establishment rhetoric. Both fizzle out when you soak them. The struggle goes badly for the Anarchist from then on, and you haul him back down to earth.

Jack-of-Smiles does not take kindly to being impersonated. Oh no. Especially not by the sort of brainless dandy that frequents the Young Stags. You spend most of the evening stitching your comrades back together.

Today I had the pleasure of making genuine ultramarine blue oil paint. The pigment, powdered lapis lazuli, creates one of the most sought after blue paints in all of art history. It is a paint that Vermeer used extensively.
While I’m not going to share the paint (it’s expensive!), I will share these nearly pornographic photos of the the paint-making process.
Enjoy!

The Starveling Cat! The Starveling Cat! They put it in a box! And it hated that! The Starveling Cat bursts out of the box in an avalanche of shredded brown paper. It leaps at your face, fangs bared. You fight it off frantically, sustaining a series of savage cuts. It drops to the floor and snarls like a tiger. Then it climbs your armoire, claws gouging the varnish, and glares at you. It doesn't move until midnight, when it steals into your pantry and wolfs down an entire joint of beef.

The colonel likes his privacy. His other interests include large calibre pistols and shouting 'B----- off!' at spies. You run before he does more than wing you.
