michigan and arizona (my rvb oc) would bully the SHIT outta each other constantly

I can believe it! Mich loves to mess with anyone and everyone. It's pretty much her full-time job to be a nuisance 👍

Souls in the Sand: Concept Art

As I’ve mentioned here and there, I’ve spent the last two years developing an original story inspired by a small Origins+Empires server a few friends and I started planning. The more I developed plans for my empire to be a sprawling overgrown cityscape of ruins and stone framework inspired by the nether, the more I built up this backstory for the character I wanted to play, a small deerfolk boy named Esra. From there, and over months of working and reworking the story and its characters, I’m proud to say I’m coming up on a 100 piece gallery for my Masters Exhibition to display this story in the form of a song-inspired comic, titled: Souls in the Sand.

Over the next month and beyond the date of my exhibition in April, I wanted to start sharing my work here! I thought it would be fitting to first share all of the concept work I did for the characters last semester as I took each character from their old lineup and reworked them from scratch to see if there were any designs I could make more unique or appropriate for the story. This process consisted of four stages: silhouettes, full-body mock-ups, face and head shapes/designs, and experimenting with the final characters’ designs with a set of unique expressions that best fit their personalities and narrative role.

Since each character was reworked separately, the “new” concept lineup is a little disjointed (and some of the characters’ faces actually ended up different from their full-body designs), but I thought it would be fun to line them up to compare the overall cast to their old designs. With each character(s) I post the concept process for, I may share little bits of the work I’m doing or talk a little about their narrative roles as I go, but for now, have Esra!

I know I don’t post original work here often, but I wanted to share parts of this journey with you guys because it’s been very meaningful to me! And I hope all of the work I’ve been doing may at the very least serve as a bit of inspiration or encouragement for us to keep making silly minecraft stories, to keep drawing the characters we love, and to keep being creative in whatever way is meaningful! <3

Fun little thing for Talk Like a Pirate day, did all the main CapCrew folk as their humanoid counterparts! So many old faces made new. Probably won't do much with them, but it was nice to do something with them all again. And who knows, they might find a place in a world as NPCs.

character development — 18 & 69

018: Your character wakes up to find that war has been declared. What do they do?

other than react to it like nearly any other day in her life? learns the sides, figures out which side her brother + friends are, and joins them. or, if they're on the "wrong" side (hypothetically), deserts, because nothing could get her to go against her found family willingly.

069: What about your character is heroic?

she's loyal to the core. she would do whatever it takes to assist those she cares about. she also puts others before herself nearly always (to an angsty degree) and would sacrifice herself in a second for her loved ones.
