Looking Up.

I know it’s late, but Happy National Dog Day! 

Here’s a sketch dump of my dog, Roger, and a little bit of Sky, my uncle’s dog. Roger is a Miniature Pinscher while Sky is a Lhasa Apso.

Julien “Benji” Benito is my entry for this month’s Character Design Challenge.

He was known as the famous Chef Julien of the arguably most prestigious restaurant in the city of Paris, France. He had grown tired of the fast-paced life in the limelight, which is why he had returned to his hometown in the Caribbean. There he had put up a small restaurant serving local cuisine with a twist.

Since his move, Benji has been very happy with his simple life in the Caribbean Islands. He starts his day with a trip to the market to buy fresh ingredients. He then spends the rest of the day running his restaurant where he keeps a close relationship with his customers. During his free time he likes to bum around under the sun, surf, and chat with the townspeople.

Some messy sketches of Severa and my original character, Oliver.

I’m a huge fan of Cordelia and Stahl so that’s how Oliver happened. I figured it would be a good contributing reason for why Severa acts so tough all the time (I mean, come on, a war with a younger sibling by your side, got to seem like everything is fine even when all hell is breaking loose) and really cute if her younger sibling was super affectionate and Severa secretly likes his hugs.

I have a bunch more drawings/illustrations of him, that I will post when I finish (not as sketchy as these hehe)

He’s around 5 years younger than Severa and I thought it would be funny if when they traveled to the past, he would arrive many years earlier, so by the time the other children arrived, He would be as old as Lucina and Laurent. Severa would be very confused about seeing her not-so-little brother again and would find it awkward to have her now very tall brother hug her. She's also kind of sad that she wasn't there as he grew up to his current age.

I figured he’d be as easy-going as his dad, and have naturally messy hair too, but because he’s such a momma’s boy he’d try his best to keep it neat, because that's how Cordelia liked it (in the short period he knew her before she died).

Unlike Severa, he’d be good with people because he’s relaxed and empathetic like his dad. He’d also be unafraid to show how much he admired his parents and how he wants to be knights just like them. (He dreams of flying on a pegasus like his mom, but he is not a pure hearted maiden) He is horrible at wielding every weapon except the bow and arrow. Although he idolizes his parents, His sister is his ultimate hero. He thinks she is the most awesome person and warrior ever.

Also, I kind of thought of Cordelia and Stahl as another red and green knight in a way. I know the red and green knights are Stahl and Sully respectively but since Cordelia is also a Knight and has the red colour scheme going on, I kind of see them as another version of the red and green knight thing.

Two variant designs I made of Nikolai from last year. The one above is him as the Grand Duke (after abdicating the throne) and ambassador to the throne, while the second is of him as a reluctant emperor.

Another one from yesterday.

Harry Potter.

Another forgotten one from a year ago (2016) deep in the drawings folder.

Thunder concept art from a month ago.

To Sleep with You.

A sketch of a possible design for the Crown Princess for my current project, George.

Logan was supposed to be just a single character exercise (he isn't even supposed to be the main character) but ideas came and now there are a few other characters in my head related to him... so here is Logan so far, before what is probably going to be a new direction.
