Maria, who shares a body with Alyson, has an entirely different attitude towards life from her host. As such, she's also got a different personal style.
This is the design for how Alyson/Maria looks when Maria is in control when they're getting dressed or whatever.
Maria Modelsheet
| Maria carries over a lot of Alyson's imagery, but she's supposed to be more open and happy. The glasses I'm not sure about. They make the change over when Maria's in charge more obvious, and my logic behind it is that Alyson wears contacts but that Maria finds them irritating. On the other hand it might be too distracting. |

Today's drawing brings me back to trying to mimic Takehito Harada of Nippon Ichi fame. Disgaea 2 is warping me. Anyway, here are Maria and Alyson, who actually share the same body. It's slightly more complex than that, but suffice to say the reason they're mirrors of each other there is because they are physically identical.
I'm afraid the character designs might be a little unoriginal....not so much in that I copied another deisgn (not that I'm denying copying the style for this drawing), but because they ended up looking like other characters I've seen before. Maria, the one on the left, I can't place but I've definitely seen her before....and Alyson, the one on the right, looks like every other introverted pseudo goth ever. I like that she wears a suit and tie, though. That's neato.
Not certain about Maria's sundress thingy, though. I considered putting her in a bathing suit and sarong, since she's supposed to be tied to water....but I wanted something that would be a little more appropriate for when she's away from the beach.
Haradayado: Maria and Alyson
| I think it turned out quite well, as far as the drawing itself goes. I already explained my feelings about the designs themselves, but the way the characters are rendered, the proportions, all that sort of stuff, I'm fairly happy with. The colors that I've written at the side might change when I actually see them, though. |

Continuing my use of tablets to make my images, I've done another dialog portrait, this time in tablet.
Maria Dialog Portrait
| I kinda like how it turned out, though I'm not really sure about the line quality in the digital "ink" here. The whole thing was done on tablet, but I did a layer on top of the "sketch" layer to "ink" it. |

A little study of Maria and the Leviathan, today.
Maria and the Leviathan
| It's not all that great, I'm afraid. Just some thoughts I put down on paper or something. |

I'm feeling a bit better since yesterday. Unfortunately, that means I have to go to school tomorrow. -_- I sometimes worry about whether or not I'll be able to finish. It's not even difficulty or anything that gets to me, it's malaise. But oh well--this isn't one of those blogs where I'm supposed to sound off on emotions and angst, so on to the picture.
Today my shipment of Blue Lead and three new Sketchpads arrived, so I'm probably going to be inking the next few pictures, using my blue lead to do the sketch and my pen to go over the final stuff. I've done it before, of course, but stopped for a while because I ran out of leads.
Maria Under Pier Pressure
| I like a lot about this drawing. The foreshortening is not one of those things. The legs are in the wrong position, and it makes it hard to tell where the "camera" is supposed to be. -_- Oh well. Foreshortening is always one of the harder things to do with drawlings. |
