C'est ce soir, venez !
It's tonight, feel free to come over!
Aye, here's a glimpse at my art for #PitOfEden!
I enjoyed drawing this page so much, I remember exactly what podcasts I was listening to when I was drawing each of these little buildings in the background.
Come check it out on Kickstarter!

Haha thanks Emily! It was a joy working on these pages (and what can I say, experimental page compositions are worth trying a few caption placements!)
I don't know if I've seen an apocalypse quite like the one in this comic! @therovercomics.bsky.social did a great job (and very graciously indulged my requests to try out different caption placements till we got 'em just right)!
Photo de ma BD les Cendres du Nord avec devant elle un panneau indiquant l'heure et la date de dédicace, à savoir le 18/04 à partir de 19h
Bruxelles ! Demain à partir de 19h, je serai à la Librairie Chimères pour le lancement des Cendres du Nord ! Au menu dédicaces, exposition de planches originales et petit drink, passez donc faire un tour !

Another #PitofEden story spotlight! I Will Find Myself And Kill It in the Burning Hours of Dawn is drawn by @therovercomics.bsky.social!
We have all gone away.
Ecological Survey is drawn by the unbeatable @lukehumphris.bsky.social ! Check out this deep dive into the Eden substance and how the old gods are affecting our world. #PitofEden
The comic-book cover of my very first graphic novel, les Cendres du Nord, a romantic triangle taking place in 1069 during the Harrying of the North, shortly after Hastings. It is published by Les Editions Fedora and we're looking for an english publisher too!
A panel from Les Cendres du Nord. A dane soldier is taken away by walkyries during the battle of Stamford Bridge in 1066. As the rest of the comic, the art process consisted of pencils then rotring pen on paper for inks, then digital colors.
Another panel from Les Cendres du Nord. Two of the main characters, Arnbjörn and Ælfhild are hugging, laying in a bed next to a fire. This panel is a reference to Greg Smallwood and Tom King's Human Target for DC comics.
An illustration I made of a knight queen and a soldier kissing in the middle of explosions, their love braving the end of the world. Guns, arrows, swords and warplanes fly around them. Pentel brush on paper for the inks, then digital colors.
Hey there #PortfolioDay !
I'm Félix, a french comic-book writer, artist and illustrator; and my first graphic novel Les Cendres du Nord, a medieval romance, just hit the bookstores' shelves ⚔️

visuel annonçant la soirée de lancement des Cendres du Nord, la BD que j'ai réalisé et publié chez les Editions Fedora; chez Chimères, une librairie branchée science-fiction et fantasy / fantastique située à Gare d'Etterbeek (mais à Ixelles, étonnement), à Bruxelles. On peut y voir de gauche à droite le logo des Cendres du Nord, celui de la librairie au milieu avec un personnage féminin à cornes lisant un livre, et enfin ma tronche pendant que je dessine sur la droite.
Hello Bluesky, si certain.e.s d'entre vous sont sur Bruxelles le week-end prochain, on organise le lancement de des Cendres du Nord à la Librairie Chimères (Gare d'Etterbeek) samedi 18. Au plaisir de s'y voir pour une séance de dédicaces et un drink ;)

Less is more, right? 💜
See a couple, post a couple 🍷
Comic book frame, a clay creature walking between the branches. Black and white. Rotring, inks on canson paper.
Another artwork from my comic for Pit of Eden! I loved designing and drawing that odd creature. Inspirations came from Giacometti and Rodin's sculptures, Wartales' troglodytes, and Dr Manhattan's behaviour.
You can kickstart the anthology right here: www.kickstarter.com/projects/mal...

Reminds me of a meme that was like "Comics fans will advice you to begin with Batman Year One or Watchmen while themselves began with issue 37 of some random X-men run without prior knowledge yet got addicted to it"
Hongrie : l'écrasante défaite électorale d'Orbán, malgré le soutien des Trump, Poutine, Nétanyahou et des extrêmes droites européennes est un signe d'espoir. Maintenant, au travail pour qu'ils ne réussissent pas à prendre leur revanche en France en 2027. www.lemonde.fr/internationa...

Les députés macronistes, LR et RN sont passés en force sur le 1er mai avec un 49-3 parlementaire.
Après nous avoir volé 2 ans de vie avec la réforme des retraites, ils veulent nous voler le 1er mai.

Three weeks left, so don't miss this opportunity!
Comic book frame. Black and white, rotring pen inks on paper. A creature walking on a forest's ground. It's foot touching a puddle of water. It's body reflects in it, alongside trees and birds.
Here's some art coming straight from my pages for #PitOfEden, the upcoming non-binary horror comics anthology about Babylonian Mythology that you can bake on Kickstarter right now!
Had a lot of fun on that frame with the pool reflection.

As Bluesky Representative of the upcoming book Pit of Eden, so happy to show you all a preview of "WE DRINK ARCADIA FROM RUPTURED NECKS AND SPINES" by @jackarais.bsky.social!
A story about paranoia, occupation, and what comes after mission accomplished. One of 14 stories included in PIT OF EDEN.
Illustration of a passionnate kiss. A futuristic sci-fi soldier making out with a queen knight in the middle of an explosion. Swords, bombs, planes and arrows fly around. A black hole forms behind the lovers. Pentel brush pen on canson paper and digital art through psd photoshop. The characters are of a greyish dark blue, the background is purple and red and the explosions orange and yellow. A valentine's day gift that wasn't meant as one at first. A very pleasant memory.
"The world is trash and everything collapse. Feeling like war will come back to finish the job. And then there's you. Quiet peace in the chaos."

And a little kiss on the forehead
Illustration, encre sur papier canson. Rotring et acrylique. Un chevalier blessé à cheval, il tient les rennes d'une main et sa blessure au flanc de l'autre. Il saigne également de la tête. Il porte une côte de mailles et une épée à la ceinture. En bas une signature avec écrit "pour Chris!"
Une dédicace pour un ami qui m'a grandement soutenu pendant la réalisation des Cendres du Nord. Merci Chris !
A sketch for a friend that supported me during all the process for Les Cendres du Nord, thanks Chris!

This was my second time working with Alina (first time was on a comic for @tocomix.bsky.social The City We Chose), and it was just as rad! Some Other Third thing is punk, irreverent, and a bunch of other good things!
Another story spotlight today! Some Other Third Thing is a weird, wild story of teen rebellion and punk anarchy drawn by Alina Wahib!
Une amie montrant son exemplaire des Cendres du Nord, ma BD qui vient de paraitre aux éditions Fedora. La couverture présente un couple se prenant dans les bras, allongés dans la neige, avec des armes anglo-saxonnes éparpillées autour, une motte castrale à l'horizon sur un couché de soleil.
La joie en sortant sa première BD d'avoir les ami.e.s qui m'envoient petit à petit leurs photos et leurs retours ! Mes personnages et leurs émotions deviennent soudainement tangibles, ils existent dans d'autres têtes que la mienne. Quelle gratification 🗡️🛡️
