I draw funny things.
Birds sometimes, dragons another time.
It's great, really.

The pigeons of the old storage hall waiting for the first, warming sunrays at the dawn of a new day.

#Arpigeon
It's colder alone. Let's step outside for a little bit at least.

OF COURSE Cassidy recorded a Christmas album!
Have a Cassidy Christmas!

#Arpigeon #MerryChristmas
It's the cover of Cassidy's Christmas album which is full of awful, jazzed up holiday tunes. Don't worry, since Cassidy is really tiny, she fit into the present box just fine.

Imagine having your entire monkey business dismantled by a pigeon that's wearing barbie shades.

POV: Arpigeon finds out you don't like jazz.

#Arpigeon #Halloween
Oh, you don't like jazz? Concerning.

When she was transformed into a dove, Arpigeon also received crazy new abilities, like... uh... whatever this is supposed to be.

Arpigeon, the funny black and white jazz pigeon, dons a hat just as elegantly, as she did as a human, before the curse struck her.

Arpigeon is too powerful!

Arpigeon, the funny jazz pigeon, can hold two donuts at once in two different ways. Can you hold two donuts at once in two different ways? I thought so.

"Jeepers, darling! That's ginchier than Christmas!"

Happy #JazzDay.

#Arpigeon #InternationalJazzDay
Upon being equipped with the information that today, on April 30th, is indeed the International Jazz Day, Arpigeon, the funny jazz pigeon, combusts into a spontaneous party version of herself, scattering confetti and celebratory decoration around Cassidys piano. Cassidy, who has to get dressed for a concert, finds this utter mayhem rather inadequate...

Happy #MHWilds release day!

I created a Monhun styled icon for Arpigeon. I bet the swing on her hunting horn would be out of this world.

#MonsterHunter #モンスターハンター #モンスターハンターワイルズ
For the long awaited release of Monster Hunter Wilds, Arpigeon, the funny jazz pigeon, got a Monster Hunter styled rectangular Monster icon made in her likeness. She is the most fabulous monster for sure.

As expected, the free Arpigeon artbook takes longer than expected.
Maybe bridge the time by kissing a talking bird today!

Happy Valentine’s Day!

#Arpigeon #ValentinesDay #kiss #bird #pigeon
Cassidy tries her hardest to kiss a very feisty Arpigeon in order to break the pigeon curse and turn her back into a human. Obviously this only works with frogs in silly fairytales. It could never be this easy with real actual magic. Just what was she thinking?!

Coming soon: the free Arpigeon artbook!

I'll be a digital artbook full of sketches, character illustrations and of course the intro comic. It'll have a ravishing cover and, who knows, maybe we throw in a daring pin-up poster of Cassidy? (Don't bet on that last one...)

To advertise it, Arpigeon, the funny black and white colored dove turned a Real Book into a makeshift artbook cover and lies on top of it. Cassidy, her new human friend, stands next to the peculiar scene and begs for Arpigeon to release her poor Real Book from her clutches. Poor Cassidy has it rough...

[Arpigeon] Double Time Debut - Part 7

#Arpigeon #comic #comicsstrip #piano #pigeon
The seventh and last part of the Arpigeon intro comic. The dove is not OK with the name "Arpigeon" as she is clearly dove, not a dirty pigeon. Pigeons are in her eyes dirty flying rats that could not be more ugly for their lives. Trying a few more names which are all not to the birds liking, Cassidy runs out of ideas and just keeps calling her "Arpigeon". The two leave the name alone for now and start playing the piano together, bonding over their music. When asking how Arpigeon ended up as a dove in a piano, she tells Cassidy that this is a story for another day. The seventh and last part of the Arpigeon intro comic.

[Arpigeon] Double Time Debut - Part 6

#Arpigeon #comic #comicsstrip #piano #birds
The sixth part of the Arpigeon intro comic. The black and white dove, sitting on her piano, tells Cassidy that she was quite freaked out when she was rolled out of the storage hall, she called her home, with her piano. But while hearing Cassidy's singing, she got touched by the warmth of her voice and felt a lot more ok. She complements Cassidy but says that she'll only leave with her piano. Cassidy plays a little tune on the piano and the dove gives her remarks that an arpeggiated chord might sound even better. When Cassidy asks for the birds name, she states that her memory got swiped quite good when the curse hit her. She cannot remember it, therefore. Putting the words "Arpeggio" and "Pigeon" together, Cassidy then comes up with a new name for her - "Arpigeon". The sixth part of the Arpigeon intro comic.

[Arpigeon] Double Time Debut - Part 5

#Arpigeon #comic #comicsstrip #dove #birds
The fifth part of the Arpigeon intro comic. Cassidy states that the talking dove must be a robot or something, but as she pets her, it is clear that she is a real, living pigeon-animal-creature. The dove suddenly cries, as this was the first time in decades that someone touched her. She tells Cassidy that she was in a lonely storage hall with her piano for a very long time, hiding there from the world as she doesn't wish to be seen as a bird. Cassidy starts feeling for her but the bird slaps her hand away and returns to her piano. The fifth part of the Arpigeon intro comic.

[Arpigeon] Double Time Debut - Part 4

#Arpigeon #comic #comicsstrip #piano #song
The fourth part of the Arpigeon intro comic. The black and white pigeon starts playing the piano beautifully herself and sings a jazzy rendition of "Moon River". Cassidy is struck by this and cannot help but tune in, making it a wonderful duet. That is however too much for Cassidy and she jumps into her bed, thinking she must be dreaming. The pigeon angrily pecks her at this folly. The fourth part of the Arpigeon intro comic.

#Arpigeon #comic #comicsstrip #piano #pigeon
The third part of the Arpigeon intro comic. Cassidy cannot comprehend that a bird can talk (get it?). The black and white pigeon that jumped out of her piano tells her that she herself had once been a human woman, cursed to be a dove - not a pigeon. There is apparently a great difference here. Cassidy doesn't quite believe her story, but the little birdie wants to prove it. The third part of the Arpigeon intro comic. Cassidy cannot comprehend that a bird can talk (get it?).

#Arpigeon #comic #comicsstrip #piano #music
The second part of the Arpigeon intro comic. Cassidy, a young musician, plays her new grand piano and is utterly shocked as a talking white pigeon jumps out of it. The bird is moved to tears by her beautiful singing and playing, while Cassidy freaks out. (Despite the fact that talking birds aren't really that much of a rare sight...)

"Darling, a ceiling is just a floor to those living on top of it."

#Arpigeon
The Arpigeon title card shows the "Arpigeon" Logo and an old black and white photograph lying in between the strings of a grand piano. It shows a woman in vintage fashion, her face is mysteriously obstructed by a pigeon that flew by as the photo was taken.

Prologue 9

#Arpigeon
A black and white colored dove sits on a grand piano in some worn down storage hall in the middle of nowhere and keeps the rain falling onto her piano with a little cup that she holds in her tiny beak. In her diary, she talks about how the rain comes down through the freshly collapsed roof and that she is absolutely sick of being stuck here. Her writing breaks off unexpectedly.

Prologue 8

#Arpigeon
A black and white colored dove sits sadly on an empty book shelf next to a grand piano in some worn down storage hall in the middle of nowhere. In her diary, she talks about how some workers inspected the damaged roof of the hall and took some things out of it. Her beloved books were also taken away, which makes her incredibly sad. Will she ever recover?

Prologue 7

#Arpigeon
A black and white colored dove angrily sits next to a grand piano in some worn down storage hall in the middle of nowhere. In her diary, she talks about how the roof crumbled down last night. As a little birdie, she can't really do much against all the rubble that lies around now. Therefore, she demands someone, somehow to come up with some solution.
