Happy Monday!
Sorry for the delay. The rendering times are getting SLOWER AND SLOWER!
Thankfully…you all were so kind enough to help remedy that with the donations for 2 new workstations.
Which are being built right now.
Can’t wait.
Speaking of which. The person who started this was a reader from the Netherlands named Jurgen.
He’s the one who convinced me to finally accept donations.
I had asked him if I could please paint something for him (he donated quite a bit of money) as a thank you.
After a bit of back and forth with emails…he sent me a “fan fiction” he wrote where Felicity comes to Earth and meets up with Nicole.
I read it and loved it.
He asked that I paint Felicity in her “hoodie” she got from Earth.
So…here’s the painting I did.
Now, if you’d like to read Jurgen’s wonderful Fan Fiction…please go here to do so.

I had asked Jurgen to make it public for all to see. Please be kind.
With this, I also want to encourage others who write fan fiction to please send it my way. I’ll happily post it for others to read.
The same is always true for Fan art.
As for the donations for the 3rd computer. I’ll keep this link up for this week only.
If we don’t reach the finances for the third computer. It’s totally cool. I’ll put the rest towards models and designs.
Thank you all SO much. From the bottom of my heart.
Scott
Sweet!
The spelling of “separate” always gets me ….
I like where this is going.
Oh!
I forgot to mention…
As I said in previous posts…I am offering original paintings for all donors of over $100.
Not everyone has taken me up on this. But you will be seeing a few more of these paintings throughout the week (I’m painting Niviene right now).
Thank you!
DOH!
Thanks!
Fixed.
So…Seraphopolis is basically the Switzerland of Dreamland?
wait a minute. I think I know where this is going. getting Daniel and Alex into dreamland at the same time will require both the sword and the bracelet.
Scott,
My first thought when I saw your painting was “wouldn’t it be cool if he somehow wrote that into the story?”
Not that I’m throwing a gauntlet or anything 😉
Thanks for a great comic – I’m glad to hear the computers are coming and will be such a big help.
Could work. But there’s also Merlin locked inside a tree. Do you expect anyone getting any peace until he’s safely in Dreamland? Not with Niviene around.
Ooh.. I líke that thought. “questing” has always been my favourite past-time in RPG’s like Oblivion (and now Skyrim)
The fun of searching, the joy when parts are found…
One of the parts here being Merlin. Hé would móst certainly be able to devise a way. Plùs the fact that he is always the wise man in the legends.
“World in between” hmm? Interrresting… Especially if Alex and his gang cause them to choose sides.. Ayayay…
Hey, Scott, removing the link right on my pay day is not fair! Could we bargain for another week? Please?
And all of you waiting for the TWC status update, we’re #7 with 10,332 votes. #6 has 10,518. We’re almost there. Keep voting, fans of the Dreamland Chronicles! And get ready for the next month’s voting frenzy.
Ha ha!
Well…I won’t POST the link. But it’ll always be here in these posts.
🙂
Thank you!
By the by.. Never thought Nicole to be a closet “thundercats”- fan, looking at the t-shirt she got Felicity 😀
Nicole tries to hide her “geekyness” , but eventually it’ll come out… 😛
A better analogy might be Brigadoon.
The English teacher in me wonders if it’s her subconscious reminding her she was friends with a cat-girl, so she was drawn to Thundercats…..
Felicity got a human mouth, with real human lips!!! 😀
The story was pretty good, had me tearing up a couple of times. Well done.
Between Worlds…. Wasn’t Arthur trapped between Dreamworld and Earth?
seems plausible. In the story Nicole also ponders if her choosing a study in dreams &sleeping, also was her sub-conscious “steering” her to some extent.
I was just thinking along the same lines…
I noticed her mouth and lips weren’t exactly as they are in canon. I love the pic, but that part just strikes me as a bit out-of-place.
Still very good tho IMHO. ^.^
please Jurgen, is at possible that the story also in Dutch reading is,I am also from the Netherlands and that is the language easier reading for me.
THANKS
Nice painting.Felicity kind of looks like she’s based on a supermodel of some actress.
If that were the case,who would like Felicity to be based on…?
… so they might not like you too much…
… brigawhat?
OMG!!!!!!
In my mind a mixture of a young Zooey Dechanel and Zoe Seldana… (the latter could be the brain-rotting influence of Avatar though.. 😀 )
Doesn’t it say between Dreamland and the nightmare realm? Arthur was trapped between dreamland and Earth wasn’t he? I thought Dreamland and the nightmare realm were both in Dreamworld, and were just like separate continents so to speak.

From the description: The story involves two American tourists who stumble upon Brigadoon, a mysterious Scottish village that appears for only one day every hundred years. Tommy, one of the tourists, falls in love with Fiona, a young woman from Brigadoon.
The movie starred Gene Kelly and Cyd Charisse. Unbelievable dancing. Just took you to another world.
Very true to the voices of the characters.
I definitely enjoyed how Felicity never quite promised NOT to pilfer anything! 🙂
I’m rather spooked by the pile of skeletons in the last panel. Where are they leaving that has a pile of skeletons at the door? Niviene’s lair?!
Well, that story is screaming ‘sequel.’
Some people have skeletons in their closet. Niviene just leaves her’s setting around, apparently.
I love picking on you Scott, playfully! I hope you don’t mind.
So, that’s a BEAUTIFUL painting of Felicity. Now, how ’bout them details though?
“…the hoody especially, with those yellow stripes, and blue panels.”
Hmmmm? Hmmmm? 😉
You know I love it too.
I’m not a sensitive type.
I can’t donate this moment since I just bought a motorcycle 🙁 should I have the money left I won’t mind helping again!
YAY NIVIENE! 🙂 I’m not crazy excited to see it or anything…. 🙂
I loved that movie when I was a kid. 🙂 I used to watch it any time it came on AMC…before AMC started showing newer stuff…
I love brain rot. 🙂
Fascinating. Dreamland’s world contains a genuine lawful neutral–and they probably look like angels! Or an angel/demon amalgam? Angels and demons are often viewed as a single species, some of whose members rebelled against God/went over to the dark side…
I thought Brigadoon was the theater where the players told the story of the downfall of Kai’s people, the Brunnen-G.
Oh, wait, no … that was Brigadoom. (Bonus points for any that get this obscure reference!)
