Hopping on the bandwagon! Here's a place for me to post random sketches and WIPs and stuff.
So anyway, a while ago I was writing a random story, and I needed a random group of adventurers to stuff into said story. Then I remembered I had this old abandoned story which focused on a fairly generic group of adventurers, and I figured why not recycle! So then I retooled them a bit and now I have some elaborate background characters. Though they might get their own plot someday the way they keep backstorying in my brain. >_>
...Anyway, I hadn't really drawn these characters before, except for a couple of them who I sketched some really ugly concepts of many years ago. So then I kind of... drew them. Hurrah!
The leader/generic swordsman. I remember when I first drew him all those years ago, I went back and forth on whether or not to give him a mustache, though I ended up not because I thought it looked weird. So then naturally I went wild with facial hair when I retooled him. GENIUS.
(He's probably happy I discontinued that old story now that he doesn't have a girlfriend who ends up stabbing him. Or maybe he doesn't know that. ~Fun facts~)
Generic mage character. Or at least that's what he used to be until moving to a new world turned him into something with a little more background. It's possible he's the reason these characters keep backstorying in my brain. Jerk.
Actually no he's pretty cool. He reminds me of something between V from OotS and Piers from Golden Sun and I am okay with that. :'D
The girl with a spear. Kind of turned amazonian while I was drawing her for whatever reason! But I am pretty much okay with this. Even though I was having trouble with her outfit. Her old concept sketch didn't help.
"Young!PFA: hurr what's fashion"
and i felt like being weird with her hair, yay weird braid thing
Tough guy with an axe, though somehow while I was writing him he turned into some kind of goofball? I hadn't even writen any of his dialogue in the original story, but I'm pretty sure he wasn't supposed to be a goofball. He just kind of ended up that way, I dunno.
Either way, I suppose that may be why I subconsciously drew him as some weird mix of Larry and Gumshoe. Not sure how his outfit ended up looking like Cloud though. XD;
I don't know if I'm totally happy with the designs yet, but it's kind of nice to get a better visual of what they look like. XD;
(Also, my sketches talk now and I'm pretty sure that's Chloe's fault)
(I tend to get really lazy with concept sketches so that's why a lot of them are deformed)
