🕑 Added 2020-12-14 20:59:40 +0000 UTCWelcome to Moira's, home of Turtle City's greatest Male Impersonators!
It was based on Mona's 440 in San Francisco:
I couldn't find any interior photos of the original Mona's, so I got to make it up. I wanted to give Moira's a very different look than previous bars Lillian has been to. It's supposed to be more upscale than 63 or the Rabbit Hole, so I intentionally left everything looking brighter and sleeker.
These are some of the photos I looked at while I was drawing Moira's:
And here are some clothing-sketches. It is canon that Lillian's friend Mona is "always dolled up." :D
The hours of drawing this scene were brought to you by Arden, a queer Shakespearean audio comedy drama about the making of a fake true crime podcast, cohosted by a banterrific f/f Beatrice and Benedick.
(It's also a good podcast for cleaning.) PS, if you like Arden, their behind the scenes discussions are totally worth a few bucks on Patreon!
Thanks, as always, for supporting me on Patreon! It means a lot to have your support on the years-long treadmill that is making a long-form comic.
Sincerely,
Becky
