A sneak peak at my finished art for @thevelvetcompote.bsky.social Blood and Brocade zine/artbook.
I don’t often do fanart but I jumped at the chance to illustrate both versions of my darling Claudia in a variety of vintage fashions.

Preorders are open now until 12/10!

Here’s a peak at my finished art for @thevelvetcompote.bsky.social Blood and Brocade zine/artbook. So so thrilled to get a chance to work on a project like this. You all know I had to draw Claudia and Madeleine in 1890’s fashion ✨
