TERRA ALUVIS VOL. 1 OUT NOW: van-syl-production.deviantart.…
Full view please!
Uhm ... How did THAT happen? Surely because of THIS here – but I haven't read any of those for several WEEKS now! >.<
Wait ... okay ... maybe that's it ...? I should change that, shouldn't I ...?
A rather unusual illustration for my fantasy story Terra Aluvis. I felt like putting the main characters from my story into manga style, since I am refreshing my line art skills at this moment anyway.
From left to right: Lewyn on the floor, then next his best friend Sacris - the King of Mankind (no, really?) - and then to the very right is Jerome.
Did I already mention, that ten years ago Terra Aluvis actually started as manga? It had over 200 pages already when I changed from manga to novel medium.
I think, it's important to remember ones roots.
And yeah, in fact I simply drew this illustration, because I could no longer stare at those css and html code lines x___x
But someone has to create my website ... And I still wish I had a team working under my management... Well, in ten years maybe ...
Enjoy and share thoughts!
- Nox
Basically I am open for commissions!

I love the contrast from the day/night. And more this contrast from the "with" and "black" character.
I feel a little sorry for the blond boy... is like "i don´t like you" TT__TT
The esthetic from the clothes hare very elfic jajaja

thank you so much <3
yeah that has been a big change between my main characters - the time where Jerome appeared in Volume 3 of my story and replaced Lewyn (the blond one) to the side of Sacris as the second main character ^^'
that's been the time, when the last 'female spark' inside of me died as well - and I don't think that's just a coincidence XD
thank you :3 yeah, I definitely could draw something like that again! I love half-transparent veils <3

Leryn is a girl or a boy?
Maybe are not dead... i thing we have a part of female and a part of male.... and the both live in a type of a ying yang... in one cases one is mor stronger than the other... well... ok, This is not going to the point and i don´t now your history and anything. Sorry... im really like to talk about interesting and deep topics hahaha.

Lewyn is a boy
although it was a significant matter to me, that the only RL person that in some sort resembled him was Adrej Pejic - who later turned out to be a trans-woman and is now Andreja Pejic (so she did the opposite way than I have done).
and the more I thought about it, the more I became convinced, that Lewyn in fact was some sort of 'hidden trans-woman'.
I'm in the middle of transition from female to male

wooow! I did not expect that!! You are so brave!
You have had the support of your people? It must be a very difficult term and one must be very sure of what one wants. I'm glad you'll find your way and things are going well. And with all the courage and strength for surgeries!
He knew Pejic's case, but he had never met anyone in that situation. Here in latinamerica those topics are taboo even. The intolerance of homosexuals is regrettable. I do not know about trans people, because it is something that is spoken very little. Well, in the end, there are the problems. Why not speak things generates that stupid ignorance.... -.-U

haha thanks^^'
no, my family didn't support me and it was hell (they are archcatholic and conservative and don't accept any of those things: that I am transsexual, homosexual and into BDSM). but as I am living on my own, I was able to go my way nonetheless.
fortunately the rest of my social environment (friends, customers, fans etc) where very understanding and tolerant
and now that almost 2 years have passed since my coming out, one family member after another slowly seem to tolerate my path (but they don't support it).
yeah, even in Germany it is difficult to find good information about transition. and most people think that transsexual people are transvestites (means, that it's a mere fetish for them during sex). they don't understand the grave meaning of being in the wrong body - literally - at all. my mother as well assumed in the first year that it was a mere "beauty OP" that I was going for. now half year ago she admitted that she is convinced it is only a fetish for me (like in case of transvestites). it is cursed, I tell you. and transsexuality is easier to differenciate from transvestites, when you approach to transsexuality from the direction of intersexuality. after all your brain has the opposite gender from the rest of your body as well. so like in my case: my brain is male in a female shell. so my personality/soul and everything else is male and it rejects the female shell. thus the female shell needs to be adjusted to the male core. there are many risks, it reduces your life span about 5-15 years (when you survive the OPs) - and it has nothing to do with something superficial like a fetish.
since too few people know about the difference between transsexuals and transvestites, I've come to the conclusion that it is necessary to talk openly about it to others - otherwise people won't learn it
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
wow. Sound ver hard. Really. Despite everything, although sometimes one feels very alone. There's always someone out there. If four family is very catholic is difficult support it. But, are your family, at last, be tolerant is the begining. Give them time.
Be honest with you.... until a few months ago in my mind was the same... but one day, in a theter function with a friend, he tall me the diferences(the play was about a lot of travesties).
Live in the wrong body must be horrible and very stressful and frustrating...
Sorry for ignorance (language problems) but op is surgery?And yet you will practice it? Without a doubt is not a fetish or a superficial thing. Wow, i ´am like shock. Your story is very strong. Your strength is admirable
People do not always get over the causes they suffer. But, one day, when you will a famous writer and artist you can tell your story to others and help educate the subject. At least you showed a girl who lives at the end of the world jajaja.
Oh, sorry, but i have a question(stupid question dha!) story(ir ok tell you in this case your story or is your history). In spanish we use "historia" to storys in literature, fantasy, anecdotas, the story of one... and history like medieval and the pass. Sorry >///
well I had a severe break with my family after my coming out, since there was no chance we would get along at all. but things have become better already - so, yeah ... maybe with enough time we will get along with oneanother
it's alright. I didn't know and didn't WANT to know the difference neither. I mean since my youth, when people asked me why I am drawing yaoi all the time, I was saying: "in my body lives a man and he is gay".
in the last years some people asked then: "oh, then you are transsexual, aren't you?" and I always just shouted at them: "I am no tranny (transvestite)! leave me alone with that bullsh*t!"
and my own ignorance towards that topic kept on just until the moment of my coming out, you know? indeed the moment where I knew I had to stop living a lie and do anything possible to adjust my body, I had to do researches via google, to find out what I actually am now x'D
haha, well I already do educated people all over the world
in fact since I started documenting my transition openly via deviantart, people ask me questions about it - often they are other transsexuals who need help in their own coming out and transition.
and in real life I talk with many people about that topic as well. and all people who deal with me in everyday life see how my transitions proceeds and they get to know all my struggles and fights and thus they get a very good understanding for the seriousness of this topic
yes "OP" are "surgeries"
and "story" is mostly fictional
when I say "my story" then I always mean Terra Aluvis (I actually just have this one big story/project)

I hope someday things will be the best way from you.
jeje. In one part this is funny. But, is ok, we are all ignorant in some aspects. The important thing is you managed to find the way to be happy. And this way not lways is a easy one, you now
Personally i identify myself a lot with a saying that says: "Si no duele no sirve" Would come to be something like ..."If it does not hurt it will not do". And no, is not a bdsm sentence jaja. But, really, the easy thing are more forgettable, but if you put all your efforts and your heart in the goal, is something that is valued more. And in consequence of all that it costs, it will last more in the time. Although my words should sound superficial. Whatever you do, you are already at another level of effort and sacrifice.
Maybe educate and make the subject known is one of your missions in life jeje
Thank you, dear, for the clarifications

thank you
*g* that reminds me so much of Ed's sentence in the end of FMA, when he is in the train and says: "change always comes with pain/sacrifice. and the more you want to change, the more you need to be ready to sacrifice" (something into that direction at least he says).
and surely that is true somewhere
well my sense in life is for me on one hand definitely Terra Aluvis
but yes on the other hand I have realized that I was able to help other people who come from as conservative environments like me to find their own way and break the shackles to their past - be it self-publishing, things about homosexuality, BDSM or starting their transition. it comforts me a bit, since I seem not to be 100% useless in real life :'D
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I do not know why, but the darkest moments are usually those in which one learns more ....And are often a great source of inspiration
Ed is not my favorite character from FMA, but... I feel very identified with him. For a lot of time in my whatsapp i had put his picture jaja. And this winter my mon give me a red coat. I always used black pants.... And when I braided my hair was funny jaja. But i feel identified for other thing more of character and personality.
Yes, it is true, but, not all the people with money it's like this. Other quote is something like "Bread is richer when you earn one".
And I am convinced that it is so!
Anyway, you have to learn to enjoy the simple things too.
During the whole career I had to work part time. And while I was exhausted, I was happy for my work and for the University. I think I'm an easy person lol.
I really want to read your work. I curse the English course that I went to make friends hahaha
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
yeah ... and people like you, who manage to work AND study, make people with burn-out like me feel even more bad about not being able to work at all ... |'D (and the only thing soothing me, is that having reached the state of burn-out has not happened through LAZINESS )
hm ... with whom would I identify from FMA the most with ...? I guess if it had to be one, it would be Roy ... although my ambitions to change things globally definitely have gone with my burn-out. so he rather reminds me of how I was earlier
well maybe one day your english level will be good enough to understand it anyway
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Well, but you can not work because you're facing a health problem. To be good, you have to be well.
Besides, I'm working and I do not mind having more than one job or not having much life. I'm crazy. But I love to work. So I'm not an example of anything lol
Roy is a good choice! And I encourage! There are people who really want to do something to change the world!
Maybe someday. Never say never! <3 <3

Should I post less?
Since I'm trying to make a living from this, it's only natural that I draw a lot - and especially a lot for my story Terra Aluvis of course. Not that I earn a cent from uploading it. but it is the best possibility to get attention for my story anyway, since I don't have any money for advertising campains
Sorry if the amount of uploads bothers you^^'
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
No no no no no don't post less >3<
The uploads don't bother me at all! A new upload from you brightens up my day!
Good, keep drawing

Stunning colourwork, very very fine graphics with a magical quality to the whole image. There is such a crispness to your image. The fabrics are great too including the sheerness in the blue wrap. You have a nice sense of proportion to your figures as they stand alone and in relation to one another. You have used the moonlight on the jawline of the crown prince well. I like too that crown, rich in simplicity it work very well here. I certainly feel for the crouching figure here too. Very lovely image thanks

I feel so sad for Lewyn! Even without the background to explain this image entirely, I want to give him hugs!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah, this is actually some mega-spoiler, since this change takes place in the (yeah, yeah, surprise) 20th chapter, because to Sacris Lewyn means everything (and actually still does).
Anyway, I can't wait, until the storyline illustrations get there, so just deal with all the spoilers ^^'
Oh yes, a great hug would be definitely what Lewyn needs now!
