Character sketches.



Here we have Dave, one of the characters from an rpg I played in several years ago. He is still one of my favorite things to draw.

Scaredy Cat

This is from two semesters ago. I'm totally cheating. But it does have one of my characters in it. Dave is a North American boogieman, he used to be human and is dangerously close to falling in the "cursed with awesome" trope. He does want to find a way to be cured of it but doesn't whine about it constantly. I got annoyed with all the angry, angsty darkness powered badass superheros so I made one who is more or less a normal guy, he's 38 and used to teach middle-high school English.

He's a supernatural creature so that comes with some interesting powers. He's made of living shadow so bullets are less than effective but bright light hits him like a physical force, he can flatten out into a two dimentsional form and move through shadows, he's crazy fast, and he can shapeshift back into a person although he still doesn't look entirely human (i.e. claws, orange eyes, excedingly gaunt and creepy).

He has read every Steven King book ever and has been working on writing a horror novel for several years. It's pretty bad, he fails at horror.
