I did Halloran, the goblin merchant at the same time. At the time the story starts, Halloran has been living under a bridge and neither eating or drinking anything, other than scotch made from old socks and dead rats. (Goblin ingenuity knows no bounds)

Before his recent troubles he was a respected businessman, known for his skill at keeping inventories and knowing what his customers would want. He resents the Merchants' Guild and blames them for his recent troubles. When Will offers him a job at Anything Under the Sky, he jumps at it after finding out they're not members of the Guild.

So I guess I took the summer off or something. I dunno, just haven't really been doing much that I felt like posting. School's starting back soon, and I'm getting back into the groove....I'm going to try to pull off my Directed Study project this turn if I can, and I'm getting geared up.

I'm not sure if I'll do Hurricane Simeon, because I'm seriously considering doing Anything Under the Sky instead. To that end: some character designs. First up, Anders the Dryad.

Anders is one of the clerks for the store that Will scouts out. She's noted for being charming, but can't really branch out (pun....oh, who am I kidding, totally intended) because she's magically tied to her tree.

Here's another redesign on Feet, whose name is now apparently Will, which might be short for Willow.

It's been a while since I posted, I know. Sorry about that. A lot's been on my plate with work and all, and I just haven't been doing any drawings that I felt like posting. There's been some AUtS stuff, but I don't think that everything I make for AUtS really ought to show up on this blog. The character designs are fine, but scenery?

I did the sketch of her incognito design at the same time, but I haven't inked and colored that one yet. I'll probably upload it tomorrow, unless I get distracted or feel tired after work.

She looks a little less young in this version, but maybe a bit less endearing, too. It might be the eyes. I've been trying to keep all my characters' eyes different lately, and it's somewhat challenging to figure out what sorts of eyes match peoples' personalities.

Aside from the sketch, I did this entire thing in Illustrator, by the way. It's an interesting way to do things, but I like the smoothness of the shading this way. And I don't have to sit and wait for each of the different programs I use to load this way, either.

I thought in the time it took me to type that, I would come up with something to post. I did not.

Character design. I've been doing mostly fanart on the blog lately, but I'm working on a project that requires some character design so that's what's getting posted today.

This is a preliminary design of Feet (not her real name), the main character from Anything Under the Sky. We're planning to have her in multiple outfits, one of which is her disguise as a Gentleman Thief.

I really don't like the pose, but it does what it's supposed to, which is show the various parts of the character. I don't like the "Gentleman Theif" look anywhere near as much as her EGL-inspired civvies. I think it's the hair. I think I need to do something different with it.

You have brains in your head
You have feet in your shoes
You can steer yourself
any direction you choose.

So yeah, this is a design for the character we've codenamed "Feet" (because she does the running around) in Bimini Road's new project, Anything Under the Sky. Or at least, this is how I'm picturing her in my head. We probably won't use the design since we probably won't be making custom sprites for this project given how little time we have. Maybe I can use it in the sequel. :D

I think I like how this turned out. The four-head-tall proportion is fairly cute, and I think the lineart came out quite nice.

Not so sure about her outfit, though. it feels good to get a design down on "paper," though, even if my team is going to probably ignore it and/or make dispariging comments.
