after a long time of work (which you didn't even suspect, but i did) let me introduce you to my collab with my friend (with great taste in music), vihordy! sketches were done by both of us, line - by my hands, color - by vihordy. well, and the au is also mine.

once upon a time, a fanfic was started, where instead of meetings with vampires in caves, a zombie apocalypse was happened… a long story of 300+ pages, which is not finished yet (keep this in mind if you want to check) (also keep in mind that it all is in russian)

under the cut you can see the stages of work~

[stepk]

in one lucky moment i had a pen and paper at my hand (instead of tablet) and a lot of time, so... inevitable just happened if you just knew how i LOVE graphics- as much as don't - coloring.

[stepk]

i see all the tags that people leave (just don't know how to respond to this or should i anyway, i'm shy and doubt... and all this shit), so

P A R T 2~

threw all sorts of sketch into one pile, hah

oh dear... i watched "to be hero x" and i can't escape this feeling.

...maybe cause of the animation? who knows

[stepk]

[stepk]

он есть, вот он, только там полно еще всякой разной мелочевки помимо рисунков... но, если это не отпугнет, добро пожаловать)

well, the obvious happened. i read another work by an author i like, and almost at the same time my favorite alestorm appeared in my playlist. both impressions came together successfully and resulted in a sketch, hehe >:) 'cause what could be better than a combination of pirate metal and pirate get-togethers with a guitar?)

i stumbled upon an au mixed with "Who Framed Roger Rabbit". while it only has a few lines, but already seems atmospherically charming😊 if you want, you can read it there

[stepk]

quick sketch and at the same time practice in no-line and "hard" coloring

[stepk]

i definitely need to do something with my memory 'cause this art is almost a month old and i didn't even think about posting it on this blog...

drew it for a small contest

[stepk]

Maternity Ward part 2

Part One

Salim had been working the maternity ward for almost two years now, and quickly learned it was best to allow couples to settle when they were admitted. Adjustment times varied, but an hour seemed like it gave them long enough to relax and familiarize themselves with the room. He smiled thinking of his newest patients, the Kolcheks. The father in particular acted frazzled, barely able to speak. Salim looked forward to helping them.

He entered their room and found that the two of them already made themselves comfortable. The blinds were pulled up to allow sunlight into the room. A radio was set on the bedside table. The couple were each armed with a soda, and they were chatting while playing cards.

“Hey, doc!” Penny greeted him. “Want Jason to deal you in?” At the sound of his name, Jason tensed. He turned to look at Salim then quickly snapped his eyes back to his cards. Salim reassessed the man: maybe he was just shy.

“Maybe later,” Salim said. “I wanted to see how you were doing. May I?” He gestured to Penny meaningfully. She shrugged and set her cards aside. Salim pulled on some gloves before approaching her. Jason shot to his feet and scooted out of the way. “Not a fan of hospitals?” Salim asked him sympathetically.

“No. I mean, I just figured to give you room.”

“Thank you, that was considerate.” Salim gave him a smile. Jason's ears turned pink and he looked away. The shyness was sweet; Salim would have to think of a way to put the man at ease. For now, he focused on his patient. “Could you walk me through your latest contraction, Penny?”

She was more than happy to do so. She described how it felt, leaving a significant pause that Jason filled in with the duration. Salim shot him an encouraging look.

“It sounds like things are progressing well,” he remarked. “You have more hours ahead of you, so be sure to keep hydrated and fed. The food provided at the hospital cafeteria is decent, though you're allowed to order out. I'll be checking in with you frequently, but of course you are welcome to call me if you have any questions or problems.”

“How many more?” Penny wondered. She cradled the underside of her belly.

“It's hard to say; it can be anywhere from twelve to twenty-four hours for a first birth.”

“Holy shit,” Jason gaped.

“That's why it's encouraged for you to stay active, and rest when you can,” Salim explained. “Now, I usually like to discuss this before the labor becomes too intense: do you want to have a natural birth?”

“Fuck no!” Penny burst out. “Do what you gotta to make this easier.”

“All right,” Salim agreed, chuckling. His gaze shifted over to Jason again. The man was rocking back and forth on his heels. “You look like you could use some air,” Salim noted. “How about you and I walk down the hall for a bit?”

“Uh.” Jason's ears turned red again. “Okay.”

“I'm looking at your cards while you're gone,” Penny warned. Jason rolled his eyes at her and chuckled. Salim smiled and the two men exited the room.

“She's very spirited,” Salim said.

“Yeah. She's always been like that.” Jason fell into step beside Salim. “So how long you been a baby doctor?”

“I've worked at the maternity ward for about two years. It never stops being a miracle.” He reached out to pat Jason on the shoulder. “Don't worry, my friend. Your family is in good hands.”

“Uh. Yeah.” The blush had spread to Jason's face.

“Would you like to hear a joke?” Salim offered. When Jason didn't answer, Salim told it anyway: “Do you know why ducks can't be doctors? They're all quacks.”

“Wow.” Jason let out a snort, his lips cracking into a smile. “That's the dumbest thing I've ever heard.”

“You still laughed at it,” Salim pointed out. Jason's smile grew a little more.

“I didn't say I didn't like it.”

Salim was more than happy to tell him more jokes. He liked seeing Jason laugh. By the time they got back to Penny's room, that initial shyness from Jason was gone. Jason caught his eye and smiled before taking position next to Penny.

Salim almost didn't want to leave.
