Happy Friday everyone!

Green Eyes Sketch

Playing around in Krita...

Warp Holes 07

We have arrived at the middle! This one should wrap with 14 pages (why do they keep getting longer???) but if time permits maybe a single-pager as well. 

Sketch Dump

I think the character design is stable at this point. The hair started to remind me of Louise Brooks, so I'm leaning into that. It's far past time though to start sketching out what a "magic girl" type transformation would be...

Hulk vs Samson

I could never get my hands on the early Hulk run to read Leonard Samson's origin. Then I realized that all this stuff's up online for free now:

Warp Holes 06

In space, you're always doing contortions...

Animation WIP

2023 resolution: post more in-progress stuff from the animations. Frankly I've been working mostly on character sheets and backgrounds. Not the sexiest content. More to the point the longer animations are taking a long time to get off the ground and there's just not much in the way of characters ...

Warp Holes 05

Soviette 05

Getting closer to actually introducing the main character... It should be the next page...

Warp Holes 04

Sisters in Gamma

All this talk about Liv Tyler coming back to play Betty Ross has got me thinking about the Red She Hulk making an MCU appearance. One can hope...

Warp Holes 03

But how did she get to this state???

The Cleaner

This character's been bouncing around for the last six months. She's another of "Magic Girl" type concepts. Name subject to change but I'm leaning towards "The Cleaner"...

All Eyes take 2

This is totally off the rails from the scene in the show, but whatever. This was done in Krita, which actually works a lot better than some professional software (cough Corel cough). 

Warp Holes 02

Don't worry, all eyes will be on you...

The She Hulk series didn't really send her up as a bombshell. The one exception was the wedding episode which had a few pretty fun exchanges. This is a quick marker sketch, I think I may try this one again digitally...

More character sketch tweaks

I think the character was a bit too masc, so maybe a more feminine haircut? I liked the pompadour though. It may show up again on some other character. I should probably think of a name for this one at some point too.  I had "Boss Lady" in the script but that's too dry... 

This is...

Nothing much...

Just think of this as a very small preview

Warp Holes 01

This one took a long time, until it didn't. I think the growth sequence will hit at page 3 or so. 

One for the holidays...

Or one on the holidays. This isn't really holiday themed, just another crack at the character design. Merry Christmas!

More Character Sketches

After looking at the sketches. A "magic girl" could dress conservatively, but the colors should be bold at least. Also a fitted vest may look better than suspenders in this case...

Soviette 04

When will the next page come, who can say? 

What is a Magic Girl anyway?

I've thought about doing some "Magic Girl" type transformations. I don't know how it's officially defined. I tend to think of Sailor Moon, She Ra, and Cutey Honey as good examples. The outfit transformation is generally more important than any changes to the physique. It's not that the body can't...

"Why don't you come back to the party"

Markers!

For whatever reason I don't think my flatbed scanner's really capturing these right. I may experiment with a different setup soon...

Sketch Dump

Imagine my surprise when the She Hulk series actually had Buck Bukowski, that's a deep cut. I also appreciate how they made him entirely self-absorbed. I like surrounding super powerful characters with schlubs who think they're the actual star of the show. 

The Hostile Takeover 10 / final

Splat!

This was the original idea for the story: that Demona's shredded-rag costume was actually a trophy from her first kill of the day. I may reuse that for some other scenario else down the line. 

Also I intended the victim here to be a tech bro spoofing Adam Neumann of WeWork...

The Hostile Takeover 09

Animation Practice

I'm still experimenting with look-and-feel for the next animation and I want to take more advantage of Blender's features, particularly rigging and depth of field. Here's an initial experiment with a 2.5D perspective with some basic armature rigging. It's not the best but I think with some more p...

Fairchild Poppin' Off

Markers!

Stubborn one, but a fun way to close out the holiday weekend.
