Stardust Heyday
@pollytwohats.bsky.social
I just finished this, and I absolutely could not put it down. If you want to read a take on 1984 but from a woman's perspective, it's excellent (and horribly depressing, but also kinda hopeful?). There's also just a liiiiiiittle touch of sapphic romance

Here we are! Page 1 of Issue 2 of Stardust Heyday!! I know everybody's super excited to get a little bit of plot, so, here it is. Probably more plot next week! Who is this mysterious woman? And will I ever put detail into my backgrounds? Who can say, really #webcomic #art #drawing

For those who may not know, adding alt text to images is very easy! Just describe what the image is. It's a helpful tool for people who may not be able to see what it is you're posting
If I can add alt text to the following page of my comic, then it really can't be that hard, can it?

![A double-page spread shows Kay playing a ukulele. In the background is a town surrounded by redwood forests. Various panels throughout the spread show each location in the Eden Valley as Kay describes them. She says, "Hey! Sorry I'm late! I was almost killed by a biker, and I had to stop and grab my uke. I can't rightly tell you about the town without my uke, now can I? Three hours?! Whoops! Time flies. Very sorry. And no, bikers aren't THAT much of a problem here. Promise! Anyway, you must be the new kid! Allow me to introduce you to the Eden Valley." The caption says, [Light uke music begins]" Kay continues: "This is Eden Valley High. Go Tigons! And this is Eden Valley Elementary! Their mascot is the fearsome manatee. They're basically cows of the sea, and twice as cool! I think I still have a manatee hat or two... There's the R & R Diner, one of my favorite eateries! The hot dogs and chili cheese nachos are to die for. The only problem is it's one of Emma's favorite spots, too. Oh, you don't know her yet, but she's the worst! We used to be best friends in middle school, but then she moved to California for a year, and... are you still listening? Eden Valley also has many, many local attractions, such as the Farsnworth Meteorite, which fell about ten years ago. My dad helped old man Farnsworth recover it and deliver it to the Natural History Museum! He even kept a chunk and made this star necklace for me. You don't get too many dads stealing stellar material for their daughters nowadays, now do ya? And finally, there's the ~~Mystery Spot~~. All laws of physics and time seem to break down there. It's a scientific enigma, and some say it'll swallow the whole town some day. Neat, huh?"](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:fvx47m7zfclqjqmmhfi65euf/bafkreihejzb3zleev24mskhhdof34mtzptrgjkmfutxegsy2c2rw5zn6ka@jpeg)

I've been a bit light on updates for my comic -- I've been on a job hunt, and I've been brushing up on my Japanese -- but I do want to get back to it! Hopefully we can start Issue #2 next week
Here's the cover for Issue #1

I am begging large YouTube creators to find some kind of alternative. YouTube wouldn't be doing this is if it had literally one (1) healthy competitor

Hellooor! I've created a cover for my webcomic! It's a simple collage, but I think it represents what's inside. I've also cleaned up some of the art in the actual comic. The whole breadth and depth of it so far can be read here: www.stardustheyday.com/kayandemufob... #art #webcomic #drawing

Reposting a vertical version of this because I am so proud of it. I could draw Lightning a hundred more times, and probably will

People are always asking me what font I use in my webcomic (literally no one has ever asked this) and I always tell them that it's a free one! It's the most readable handwritten font I could find that wasn't stock www.fontspace.com/qd-hand-font... #webcomic #fonts

Doing some clean-up work on my comic! I got a little sloppy in spots trying to meet a deadline, and I don't want this to be a grind. I want this to be a labor of love. So, I'm going to stop and work on the art a bit. And also maybe draw a cover for the first "issue" myeh heh #art #drawing #webcomic

This movie is also fascinating because it’s a very early sound film. The camera was locked in a giant soundproof box so it didn’t end up in the film
As a result, scenes are played in simple locked-down shots, like it’s a stage play
That’s after silent movies perfected camera movements like this:
