Redirecting!

Hi guys! It's been awhile since I've updated here and I'd like to let you know that I've now moved over to tumblr. To continue to watch my work, follow this link, thank you!

Summer Sketchdump

hup I'm behind. We'll go recent to oldest, because blogger wanted to update that way!

I've been working on a possible webcomic to do after Final Arcanum (trying not to get TOO ahead of myself) and am playing around with the concept of commissioned, inter-dimensional treasure hunters. I have loose ideas of the main cast (four characters) and a few working titles, including "Hunters" and "Avant Garde." Nkiru is part of infiltration in the main cast, and is a shape shifter. Don't have much set for the universe yet, but I know Shapeshifter's always have inverted-colored eyes. (HUP and I'm not even sure if the comic is colored yet.) I have to do a little more work on her, but for the most part I think she's set in stone.
I'm already biased and kinda loving Yori a lot. He's Intel, 4' 1", and over 500 years old. And super smarmy. Fffff so excited for him. He's so much fun to draw.

My goal for Hunters/Avant Garde/Something is to make characters that I really enjoy drawing and love. It means I have a lot of work in store for me, but I think it'll be worth it. That and I've got time.
FINAL ARCANUM SKETCHES YAY. Working on some later in the story concepts. The only problem with doing that is I want to draw the characters like that now. Gaaah Kite I can't wait until you change your hair.
It's a fat racoon.

GIANT IMAGE. This was a vote incentive awhile back, but I figured I'd throw it up here. Enjoy the many things it includes!

May/June Doop

Soooo Shazz and I have begun to ship our characters really bad. So bad that I have to make weird sketches of them and probably color said sketches later. hurrrrrr
XUN. One of Fuu's adopted bebe's. He's needed a desperate redesign and I like this one so much more. ;u;
How cuuuuuuute. Also, who enjoys Fuu's hotpants? I do. unf.
Ferret! He's my new super adorable Volf Psion(Psychokinesis)/Rogue. He's actually suuuuper bad at thieving (levels are Psion 8/Rogue 2) so it's very helpful to be able to control light and sounds and whatnot with his mind. 8D;
Oh yes. DM-chan sent all the Rising Legion characters into magically enduced dreams where we were confronted by the main baddie, Katal.

I mean look at the guy. He just screams skeevy. Avidan is not so sure how to feel about this, obviously.


ANANKE. WHAT'S GOIN' ON WITH YER EYE, DUDE?

HNNG. 2x21

I believe it's one of those panels where the artist asks "Why did I do this to myself. S-sob"

HUP. It's Finals.

Finals means... more art? IDK life is weird.
So our D&D group started assigning our characters different parts from 30 Seconds to Mars' song "This is War". Avidan ended up being the leader, and Fuu is the Victor. I'm liking how they came out. 8D;

Some Vale. She's cute. That's all. 8D;
Reworking Sophisticated Mutation and now struggling through protag designs. I know I want her/them(possibly twins?) to be female buuut that's it.
Second design. So I've been listening to Lady Gaga a lot. u_u

Redesigning Yori slightly, and rand secretary character? IDK *rolls*

March Sketchas

I redesigned Chaim awhile back, but I think I finally settled on liking it. Now I just have to remember he's a good 6 feet tall. Hup.
AAAAAAAANGST IVER, AAAAAANGST. I like this sketch, just for the imagery, but I need to tweak his posture some more. We don't need "durp durp heart in my hand." It needs to be more "AAAUGH WHYYYY" amirite?
While Xandrei visited, we made new D&D characters (for better or for worse) and I created a mimic psion-telepath named Niko. Still tweaking her design but so far so good!

A bunch of us discussed who our characters in Empires Clashing would be from Alice in Wonderland. I'm not a huge fan of Alice, but the imagery is always cool. Have a hatter!Desch. 8D; There are so many problems with this, however, I doubt it's going anywhere. xD
More Ananke redesign - Yedimyze is far north, so why wouldn't he take advantage of fur fashions? The guy has gold coming out of his ass for pete's sake.

Character Designs + Redesigns

Now that Zero and Kite finally appeared, I needed to flesh out their new costume designs. Their original designs were done over two years ago. I reaaally like the improvements.

And I've finally fleshed out my character for this quarter's World of Darkness - Hunter game, aka - Dallas Evans. A few concepts have been on the blog before, but this is the finalization of everyone's favorite one-armed hoodlum. Obviously I've been watching the Boondocks so much. A+ show though.

Ha ha ha aaaand Dallas by the END of the games. Faeries do some weird crap, man. 8D; I'm really hoping I'll get the chance to play him again.

I wasn't a fan of Ananke's old design, and after re-writing his character history and fixing plot holes, I found something that make sense.

Speaking of Ananke (and the underground Western Court that he happens to run), Callum's a top-notch spy, and kinda awesome. More of him to come? Perhaps!
