sketches with my queer characters in honor of Pride Month 🏳‍🌈

quick references of my fav kids because I plan to enter artfight this year (first time yooo!!!) https://artfight.net/~HuSton

[hustonnn]

one of the main characters that I haven't shown yet - Mechanics Emperor he's a very serious man, sensible and fair. his person is shrouded in mystery: he communicates with ordinary folk only for work and rarely leaves the capital city (in general, he is the only pegasi that have been seen in public in the last 20 years). general and director of the Zentrum Military Academy, the only son of king Sabar II (but under unknown reasons is not the heir to the throne) and guypril. just a bunch of little guyps.

also a small summary of my life at the moment: the next month I graduate from university (finally the last steps yaaay), and since I will have a lot of free time, I will start to make my dream a reality - to draw Star's Dol for real and make it publish one day! also, of course, I will have to immerse myself more in commissions, because I plan to work only as an artist. so thousands of hours behind the screen are waiting for me ahead :")

little buddy named Guypril, my #1 OC (tho I don't draw him much lately) and main character of my story Star's Dol

Taggers family

drawings: 1. Guypril with Jeyra and Sarah, 2. Sarah, 3. Vincenta and Guypril, 4. just sleepy Guypril

Jeyra comes from a race of horses that live in a country called Troskos. He and his parents moved to Sand in search of work and to experience a more civilized life. However, it didn't work out very well - they didn't like anything about it. They stayed for one reason: Jeyra became a forester. His duties included not so much keeping the forests remain in peace, but maintaining friendly relations with the little kingdom Kel'pe. He coped with this better than previous foresters due to his strong connection with nature and… the fact that the queen was into him. He settled in Sand, married Vincenta, then Sarah was born, and eventually Guypril came under his wing. Jeyra's parents went back to Troskos, and he stayed here with his family.

Taggers are a very friendly family, open with each other. Jeyra is a gentle giant daddy, Vince is responsible one, she loves to share her knowledge about everyday life with Guypril, who absorbs any information like a sponge. Sarah is more brash and extroverted than her family, but generous and honest (sometimes even too much). Despite the fact that Guypril is not related to the Taggers by blood and even refuses to bear their last name, he answers to "son" and calls Sarah "sister". He is the center of the family, everyone's pride.

Troskos horses are different from ordinary ones: they are much closer to nature, their physical qualities are stronger than spiritual/magical ones. They all associate themselves with some more primitive animal, for example Jeyra with a tiger, Sarah with a doe, Jeyra's mother Illyvon was a panther, and his father Tsiriz was a lynx. They are also all noted for their colossal growth (the physiques vary though). They are a stoic kin, a bit wild and close-minded, but at the same time kind to the weak and very devoted to those they love.

Guypril 'Wizard'

Guypril is the main character of my story "Star's Dol" He's a young stallion who loves to learn and wants to devote his entire life to studying magic. He has always been an outstanding individual among others due to his desire to learn about the world. However, he was doomed to be considered weak due to his poor health. He is kind, sympathetic quiet boy. He likes to share knowledge and teach others, but sometimes he can even be strict and critical. He often arranges debates with his acquaintances on various topics, does not like to lose or be wrong.

The boy lives with the Taggers, they became his foster family after some events when he was a kid. I won't tell the story here in the post, because I hope to make a comic about it in the future (or a separate post at least). The only thing I will say is that they all love him very much and consider him as one of them. He doesn’t know his real parents though.

Guypril has a secret that only his family knows - he is half pegasus. Pegasi are respectful creatures, all of them are the upper crust of society, but secretive and distant from ordinary horses. Their numbers are very small, as the pegasus blood is difficult to pass on and most are born as half-breeds like Guypril: they can only summon wings with magic, and are also weak by nature. Guypril hides his abilities to avoid unnecessary scandals and gossip, but his curiosity about his origins and the pegasi as a phenomenon inspires him.

thank you @spinos-spinos, your one comment under my comic inspired me to make this post to introduce this kid yaaay

concept art for Tagger's home: indoors, outdoors and Guypril's room 💚 story events won't happen here often (only a little at the beginning), but I have such a clear picture of this house in my head that it would be a sin not to draw it. and since I've wanted to create this for a long time and I am still afraid to take on architecture and interiors, even such simple ones, it's so cool what I like how it went!

[hustonnn]

How far is Star's Dol planned out? Like do you have a clear idea on how the story will go (and end) or is it still in the early stages of development?

Thank you so much for the question, it's like a Christmas present!! Opening the portal to my lifelong hyperfixation...

I've been working on Star's Dol for about ten years now (some characters have been with me since childhood, but undergone significant changes). I like to divide the story into books, five in total are planned. I may still change my mind about the ending, but for now the time period from the first part to the last is ~10 years. I have a plot in my head from beginning to end, and a very condensed script I don't wanna share fully just now.

There are continents and countries in this world, a basic system of magic, characters arcs for better development of most of them. Main char, obviously, Guypril, but there're many more important ones - Mechanics Emperor, Birdhard family, guards, varans etc..

This is about relationships between people, politics, war, injustice, a sense of duty, reflections on fate and dreams. Of course, before starting a comic/book, I would like to think everything through to perfection, but I understand that sometimes it is better to do and be happy with it than to strive for the ideal forever and ultimately do nothing at all. Moreover, everything requires inspiration, and now I have a hard time finding my muse for it.

I'll also share this map of the world I did back in 2021. It doesn't have a name, so we'll just call it... the Star's Dol.

The main action takes place in Sand and Zentrum, Stoliziya (the continent on the right, the largest country, so called 'the capital of the world'), but there will also be small episodes in Efirr' (middle right) and Kasdir (lower left among the islands) (I'm too lazy to translate from Ukrainian)
