Inspiration in Quebec – Part 5

September 26th, 2013

In all the hustle and bustle of getting Eric and Brittany back from Quebec and ready to leave for Anime Weekend Atlanta, I’m afraid I didn’t get around to posting the update until a couple hours later than our usual time. Sadly, both Eric and Brittany are already asleep now, or I’d ask for more details on the lovely photos they brought us for today’s update on their inspirational tour Quebec. Eric has been uploading some of their photos to the Snow-by-Night Facebook album here, if you’d like to see more.

In convention news, if you’re going to be at AWA, please stop by to say hello and check out our chapter books and prints available for sale! We have also just received confirmation that we’ll be attending Ohayocon 2014, which has been added to our Upcoming Appearances list on the site.

Inspiration in Quebec – Part 4

Eric picked out a few of his favorite shots of the city for you in today’s update on their trip through Quebec. I’ll be picking them up from the train later tonight, but the photographic updates will continue through this week with a new Story page returning on Monday.

Inspiration in Quebec – Part 3

September 23rd, 2013

Today our pair of rogues wanted to show off the research they’ve been doing into Blaise’s line of work – lock-picking. Here are a few examples of the many hinges & locks that they’ve studied in Quebec. Hopefully they have the sense not to plan any secret heists with a manitou…

Inspiration in Quebec – Part 2

September 22nd, 2013

Continuing with our tour of Quebec, the city that inspired Sherbourg, today Eric and Brittany bring us pictures of some city buildings. You can see plenty of examples of the firewalls that were built between buildings, which were so thick that they usually had chimneys built in. Back in colonial times, when a hearth was the only option you had to heat your house, there were obviously a lot of fires; firewalls were a necessary precaution against losing whole neighborhoods every time a fire broke out. The buildings also have steep roofs and ladders leading up to them, which was necessary during heavy snowfall.

Inspiration in Quebec

September 19th, 2013

Diane here again to bring you an update on Eric and Brittany’s travels in Quebec! On the main page are three pictures that they took of the Quebec wall, built to protect the city from assault from the landward side. Eric tells me they’re having a great time exploring, scouring the upper city and the lower city for inspirational reference photos.

Chapter 7 Page 20

September 17th, 2013

Blaise shows off his excellent imagination and mad art skillz on Chapter 7 Page 20. Antoine is not amused.

Since Eric and Brittany are headed off to Canada as of 4am today, Diane is here to handle the updates while they’re snoozing on a train. I’m glad I got to introduce this page, which was one of my favorite parts of the script when Eric showed it to me. Brittany & Naty did a great job executing it.

To see what Jassart and Snow-by-Night are up to in the meanwhile, vote for us on Top Web Comics for a sneak preview of the next page!

Sun-in-Splendor

July 11th, 2013

Hello again! This is Diane, reporting in for update duty while Eric and Brittany are at Connecticon this weekend. In place of the usual Almanac update, we are previewing another of Julie Wright’s wonderful prints! This is Sun-in-Splendor, the spirit of summer. Eric sent me a lovely poem he came up with on the long drive to Connecticon that I thought I’d share alongside the preview:

How bright she burns with eyes like tawny amber
and hair wreathed in a crown of radiant fire.
She chases the sky with leonine grace;
With boundless strength she soars ever higher.

If you like what you see, you can pick up a print of the spirits of the seasons at Otakon 2013 or our other future conventions!

We return on Monday with Page 2 of Chapter 7, which you can take a peek at early by voting for us on Top Web Comics. If you’re at Connecticon this weekend, please swing by and say hello!
