Jordan and Egg, Sitting in A Tree...


So! Two new pictures. These ones involved a bit more than simply scribbling, but they were still really quick. A whole lot of fun to draw. The first picture you see is a female-version Jordan. As you can tell, it still looks just like Jordan, but she's dressed in such a way to show off a bit more form. I still haven't decided on a gender. However, I must admit that female Jordan is flat out hot.

The second picture is Jordan and Egg pairing picture. The recent storyline has had some serious drama-drama (pronounced: DRAAmah-DRAAmah) going on involving these two characters. So fun-fun.

MnM Doodles!

London


Jordan and London


Egg and Mariska


Egg and Jordan

Here's some fun doodles I did today. It's the Mutants and Masterminds characters. London, Egg, and Mariska are my friends' characters and designed by them, and Jordan is my character. Doing these little scribbles are a fun way to refresh myself after I've been animating for too long!

Mariska Morevna


Mariska (ma-RISH-ka) Morevna, another character from Mutants and Masterminds! Mariska is not my character; she was designed and played by my friend Casey. I used one of her reference pictures and converted Mariska into this chibi thing I've got going on. I plan to draw the rest of the party in this style as well.

Mariska has the ability to create illusions and invoke fear in her targets. This is an extremely useful ability at times. However, she doesn't have perfect control over her illusions, which sometimes induces nightmarish existences for her neighbors. Her family is forced to move from place to place due to this, so she has few friends. It doesn't mean she isn't friendly, though. Mariska could save your ass just as easily as she could hand it to you.

Mutants and Masterminds

Heard of that game? Mutants and Masterminds is kinda like DnD, only it's with comic book superheros. My friends and I've started a really super casual campaign, with all mutant high school students (sans one faculty PC.)


My character is Jordan Lank, an "ambiguously gendered" individual. Jordan turned out to be "ambiguous" because I really wanted to play a female character, but then I realized that all of my friends were playing males except for one. We started the "blue harem" joke, and I realized if I created a female character, it would mess up the funny. So, when I brought up the demlima, one of my buddies said "just make your character ambiguously gendered and give them a neutral name. It'll still count!" And thus, Jordan was born.

Jordan leans towards male on first glance. However, take a moment to imagine Jordan in a skirt and with a really small chest. Strike a lady-like pose. Could it work? Possibly. Just enough to make you wonder. Jordan is probably more likely to admit to you the fact that s/he's a mutant than s/he is to discuss "hir" gender. (Mostly because even the players don't know what's under that baggy jacket.)

On a different but relevant note, I've developed this "child-propotion" style thing for character designs that I just like a whole lot. It makes me want to draw a bunch of different characters of mine in this style and see what they look like. Maybe you will see more later.

Days Gone By, Cover Page


Here's a cover page for another story of mine, Days Gone By, that I'm writing with a friend. Rather, I should say, Days Gone By is being "drawn" with a friend of mine. Sometimes we pass the paper back and forth and draw what happens next rather than writing. This is T, a street rat who falls into big money in a strange way. This story involves alternate time streams and challenges the notion of "self."

I'll post up a picture of him that shows his face. Later.
