Amelia late 20's vs teens

Galett mid 20's vs tweens

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.

Grimoire Sketches part 4!

Continuing on with more sketches from my comic project "Grimoire", we've got more characters, and  some creature designs! There has been a lot of process behind what the rules of the creatures in this story adhere to, and this was in the beginning stages of figuring that out.

Grimoire Sketches! Part 3!

One of my current pitch projects is about a group of kids in a modern-day setting clashing with a magical "other-world", however it's kinda alternated from that to being a pure fantasy setting. Here's a bunch of sketchy character concepts from the story!

SHADOW concepts Pt5

Onto part 5 introducing my 'Shadow' comic project I've been working on! Today is another collection of character sketches and process work!
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
Part 4 was a collection of character sketches. Read it here CLICK

At the bottom of this image is some process of Cain. He's a big mystery and his shadow is a large black dog named Theo. Like Sadie, I had Cain's personality planned out from the start. He's smart and to the point, but it's clear just by looking at him that he's carrying a lot of emotional baggage. But he's extremely kind, and puts others before himself, something which gets him into trouble more often than not.

Experimenting with some different character age designs. the ultimate plan is for a 3 book series and I'm considering having time jumps in-between each book. We'll see.

Sadie's glasses have been something I wanted to use right from the start. The idea is that she doesn't actually need glasses and instead wears them as a way to put another barrier between herself and the world, she thinks it makes it easier for her to hide and not stand out. So abandoning them towards the end of book 1 was supposed to be a big step for her and a way to physically see her character change.

Then I also thought it'd be funny that right when she abandons them she ACTUALLY needs them because her eyes are bad, haha! I probably won't do that, but it's a fun thing to think about.

So that's it for part 5! There will be lots more from this story in the future!

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!

SHADOW concepts Pt3

And the intrigue continues, welcome to part 3 of my blog post about one of my current comic projects. I still don't have a title yet, but 'Shadow' is the working title I've been calling it by.

When I was brainstorming ideas for the characters and how they interact, I ended up making this mini-comic thing to experiment with their relationship. This was actually the 2nd thing I ever drew for this project, long before I had even decided on their names.

They're not enemies, but not exactly friends either. Sadie and Glenn's relationship is complicated. I spent a lot more time figuring them out because of this. I had both of their relationship's to Cain nailed down from the start though, haha, I feel bad that there aren't more sketches with him in them so far.

As you can see, Glenn's design has changed a lot, I finally have his design finalized but it took awhile, so a lot of these sketches vary from design to design.

The thumbnailed comic at the bottom of this sketch set is kind of a re-do of the original one, their interaction is a lot more intense though, haha!

haha... oops... these guys need to be nicer to each other. This kind of relationship is really fun for me though, I'm looking forward to drawing these dumb kids getting into dumb fights. Especially because when things get more intense story-wise there won't be as much time for this kind of thing.

Below is a fun scene that will probably never make it into the actual storyline. I had been watching a lot of movies while working on freelance and wondered what it would be like if these guys watched a horror movie together.

I liked the idea the despite the fact that they fight these terrifying shadow creatures, Glenn still can't handle horror movies.

All in all however, they're fighting on the same side, and will eventually become best friends, but it's gonna take them awhile to get there.

That's it for Part 3! Stay tuned for Part 4!
