Today wasn't a page day, it was a character day as well as a 'talk on Facetime with an artist buddy' day. Mikilo I think I have down pretty well. Almost too well. He's more fun to draw than Ghiroy at this point, and that can be dangerous. The mage came about from one sketch. Sometimes it works like that. I think I'll change her outfit, make it a little less baggy but otherwise, I like her. She needs a name. She will NOT be a 'sassy black lady.' She will likely be the brains of the outfit. Mikilo will be the sex appeal, for some turnabout. They're going to be appearing in a page or two. We're currently in the prologue and I think there's just one page left of that. Then we'll get to the meat of the story. There is some structure here; I'll be pulling stuff from the old version of Ghiroy and all the work I did with Delve Deep. I feel kind of bad that I'm not using the rabbits or any of their backstory, but in the end, that project was going nowhere and this one has produced 20 pages in less than 30 days. I don't work well with too much fore planning. I need to have some spontaneity. If -I- know everything about the story, it's no fun for me to basically just repeat it. Took me a couple years to figure that out, but I finally got it. Pretty much how I learn everything.
