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

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 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...

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?

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:
