2nd and 3rd pass...

NERD ALERT:  The following is supremely nerdy.  If you have no time or patience for general nerdery, please ignore.

So for this SR game, I'm playing an Adept, someone who channels his magic through his own body to boost his abilities.  To make things more interesting, I'm stealing an idea from the awesome Unknown Armies, that of Irascimancy.  Instead of relying on spirits or formula or shamanic assistance, this guy runs on rage.  All of his special abilities are fueled by his anger, nothing from any outside source.  The catch is he can't actually display anger, unless he's using it to power up.  Rage is far too precious a resource for him to waste.

So most of the time, he's got a fake smile and comes across like a burned-out hippie.  Until he powers up.  Hence the "normal" and "attack" versions.

1st pass

First pass at another Shadowrun character.  Looks way too lopsided & vampire-like.  But hey, that's what the first pass is for, right?  Also trying to keep things rougher, looser.  I'm hoping I can end up with a bona fide action shot, something that has some energy.

The Tease, part 1:

I've been so excited about this new, incredibly nerdy project that I completely spaced working on the script the last several days.  Haven't even thought about it.  Damn you, bright-and-shiny new thing!
On the bright side, feel like I've already learned a bit, and this stuff is really just getting started.  This will be a big investment of time.  The plan (before failing at ScriptFrenzy) was to keep on writing after April, until I finished all five separate stories, no matter how many pages that turned out to be.  So that part won't change. 

Must remind myself that I DID write 83 pages more than I had a month ago.  I think that counts for something.

Bride of Frankenstein

Can't believe I kept forgetting to post this.  Commissioned piece.  Had a single print made & sent to client.

Shuna Sassi - study

So I find myself in a weird place with the script.  I'm 74 pages in, well ahead of my 30-day timeline so no worries there.  However, I've only just started on issue #3, of 5.  So the odds of finishing all 5 issues are dwindling, but i'll beat the pagecount.  I find that odd.

So in honor of being ahead AND behind the game, thought I'd spend the evening drawing.  This is a study for a larger, hopefully more polished piece.  I do love me some monster women.

Seeing as how I'm a day ahead on scriptfrenzy, that makes tonight a drawing night.  Fairly quick sketch on the tablet.

Oy. Late start this year, but we'll see how it goes.
