"Blue Star" was a project from 2016 that I had abandoned back in 2018, but I decided to revive it. Many of the panels were drawn in 2016, but some were done this year. The original "Blue Star" was not structured well and didn't even have dialogue - it was just a collection of pictures I drew for fun. I wanted to turn it into a more structured story, so here's my attempt.
Wow, this is breathtakingly beautiful art!!!! I love the details and the watercolors :) this story sounds like it's going to be amazing, and I'm curious about what his brother was like and doing before he passed. Great job!
“Blue Star” tells the story of Kuzma Ardalionovich Mayakov, a dreamy and thoughtful young Soviet writer grappling with the implications of his family's legacy and his brother's death.
Haunted by visions of his brother's untimely demise on a blood-soaked poppy field during the Russian Civil War, Kuzma embarks on a quest to understand his father's past, his brother's motivations for joining the war, and his own love for storytelling.
