To the model (whose name alludes me. i know it wasn't crystal) sorry i posted these so late. Computer malfunctions.

Colored Town

Strega Nona

This is sort of the first in a series i think i might be doing of an homage to my favorite stories and children's book illustrators, although i think that i will redo this one with real watercolors rather than in painter.

Extended Family of Characters

I think its amusing that before I really knew the people I now consider to be family, I knew their characters.

This is Shaz, (or Judas, as i have been known to call him) an actor and a sneaky two timing bastard face. But i can't help but love him and want to punch him in the face. Okay. Mostly punch him in the face...
This is Maho. A crazy girl with a split personality, a partner in crime if there ever was three. Mahokou, Akuma, and Ishkigal. Mahokou who is the interpretation you see below is fun crazy unpredictable. Akuma the ever present inner child really just needs a hug and a toy. Ishikgal the angry vengeful and dark side. Each form a part of one very close friend.
This is Gwen and Kricket. This person gets two characters because she has two that really define how i got to know her as a friend. First is Kricket. The quite insane, strong, confused and slightly gullible frog thing...And then there is Gwen who is the exact opposite of Kricket. Gwen is cold, calculating, smart, you can't get one by her. They are both above all else passionate about everything around them.

The four previous designs without the items mentioned above.

Unfinished Desere and her uncle

After some time i was thinking about my favorite alter ego's past and this gentleman came into view. Old black sheep of the family acted as a father figure to Desi. She is the way she is because of him she'll say if you ask her. He is as of right now unfinished because i urge to draw her as a child was too great. This is her at maybe seven or eight, before she had to start wearing glasses.
