Space Mechanics

My friend Molly ( http://www.passingfair.com/ ) and I were working on a short story project a few months ago. We ended up shelving it for various reasons, but it would be fun to come back to it someday in the future maybe. Here's some of the character designs I did for it. It was basically a story about space mechanics solving a mystery!

Here's the final line-up of the main cast:

Alta is a mechanic who worked on spaceship hulls, I flip-flopped between short hair and long hair, but with Molly's help we ended up with the long haired version:

Talmit is a mechanic who works on the interiors of spaceships:

The commander was in charge of everything on the space-station that both he and Alta live on:

I had a lot of fun creating these characters and working with Molly, hopefully we'll revive this someday or work on something else in the future.

From Shadows: 5 page excerpt

While going through art archives I realized I never posted an old 5 page excerpt of the comic From Shadow I've been working on. The story and characters have gone through some changes, so I won't be using these pages AT ALL in the final iteration of this story. I thought it would be fun to post these though as I haven't done so.

To set you up, Sadie, the main character has a living shadow named Athena, however no one but Sadie knows about Athena and as far as she's concerned her own mind made up Athena to cope with the tragic and sudden loss of her immediate family when she was younger. She now bounces around from relative to relative, never getting attached to or staying in one place for very long. The town she ends up in has been going through a bout of murders by someone the locals have named the "Prowler" as they strike at night in public places when they're deserted, preying on people who are alone. Below is an old in-process cover, a character line-up, and 5 pages that were originally meant to be pages 6-10.

I've learned a lot craft-wise since drawing this, and I can't wait till I have new pages to compare these against. This story is gonna be a lot of fun to get into again!

Otome Horror Game: The main character's best friend

Continuing my character designs for the Otome Horror Game I'm working on with a small team of 4, here's the main character's best friend!

She's more stylish and fashion savvy than the main character, she's also got a bit of an attitude. She's smart and good at evaluating situations and people in a calculated way.

If you wanna meet the main character head of to this entry here:

Here's my rough first pass at her design:

Horror Otome game main character

I'm currently working on a Horror Otome game with a small team of 4! I'll be designing all the characters, and writing the story outline.

Naturally I'm designing the main character first! She's spunky to say the least, not letting her horrible situation get her down. She's an athlete who always has a happy smile on her face, and she never gives up!

I wanted her to be really colorful and cute, but also have a comfortable outfit. Here's my rough pass at the first 5 ideas I had for her outfit.

SHADOW concepts Pt4

And it's onto part 4 introducing my 'Shadow' comic project I've been working on!
Part 1 talked about starting up ideas for the story. Read it here CLICK
Part 2 expanded on the Shadows. Read it here CLICK
Part 3 focused on the relationship of 2 of the main characters. Read it here CLICK

This post is mostly a collection of sketches and working out character designs.

This one is basically all about figuring out Glenn. Originally he was kind of a 'cool aloof' character. But he's turned into more of a blunt and outspoken character, and while he may be good at fighting with his shadow, he isn't really good at much else.

That's it for part 4! Part 5 will be another sketch barrage, so look forward to it!
