Ghost-diner - Getting There
Old art! I drew this about a year ago (i'd like to say I'm better at hands now)
This is officially the first thing i've shared about the webcomic I've been planning since summer 2020. Ghost Diner, arriving here at some point
[image id: a poster style drawing for a webcomic. A waitress with a red apron and black ponytail stares unadmusedly off in the distance, leaning on a diner counter, a napkin, fork and glass float off the surface with a blue glow, which she ignores. On her apron there is a logo for "Kal's Diner" and above on the green background, in scribbled bubble writing are the words "GHOST DINER"]

There's something truly magical about late 19th century history paintings.
It's the last gasp of the French Academic style, but instead of lots of drapery and allegory, they are taking cues from the rising tide of archaeological research and forward-looking school of narrative illustration, which adds up to the first real attempts to depict the past as best they it could be imagined. These paintings have more in common with the old-(ish) National Geographic illustrations of life in ancient Knossos than they do with their contemporaries in the Pre-Raphaelite movement.
