quoting Hālian, Alípteza @ Central Florida:

God I wish I could make banknotes half this nice

Just keep working at it! I've been making them on the computer for a very long time (uh, about 13 years?), so I think that might show.

Indeed, we now have a 200- and a 500-franc note:

It just occurred to me—Telemor is a federal republic, yes? A lot of those faces look pretty young to be accomplished politicians from a representative democracy.

quoting Rhetorica, Kelatetía: Dis, Major Belt 1:

While Telemor is a federal republic, yes, the featured personalities aren't politicians: they're more artists, musicians, scientists, and writers. This is much like old German Mark, French franc, and Austrian Schilling notes (as well as current Swedish banknotes and most of the current Australian and New Zealand dollar banknotes).


Also, behold: new money.

We need more money. I like money. (This is from a commission, my first in a very long time!)

Nice! Where is Soundland? :-)

quoting hwhatting, Sophomore, Bonn, Germany:

Apparently, it's a micronation in the Pacific Northwest, near the Puget Sound area.

Ah, ok. Micronations are a fascinating thing.

We can only assume you were paid in Soundland Dollars for the commission.

I guess he's able to print them himself :-)

I would be able to, though that makes me curious how the printing went. They do apparently convert at a 1:1 rate to US dollars, though...

Yay for commemorative money.

More money, more something?

I like the tropical bird series. Feels comfy.

More money in progress. (Me like money.)

Pretty! Which country are they for?

Thanks! And they're for one of my old(er) con-countries, Ilia, which is the next-door neighbor of Telemor. Long history involving kings, which is what the fronts of the bills are supposed to represent, though they've become a republic in relatively recent years. Roughly 60 dénars per Telemor franc, which comes out to about 53 dénars per dollar (or closer to 58 per euro).

And while we're on the topic of money...

These look stunning. Is the scenery also referencing your con-world? Who is the man on the horse?

quoting bhasdhaNara, Foreigner:

They are references to parts of the conworld (given that the country in question is quite large), though the images come from I take during my travels. Similarly, the people on the horses/equestrian statues are references to in-world former kings (similar to the current Polish złoty notes: even though Poland's a republic, their notes all have former Polish monarchs), but I took them from real-life equestrian statues in various places.

Also, more money:

Partial repost, but here's everything together.
