chara's Art

details about daily routines in act 2.

we don't like this guy very much

davi! i need to do an actual reference for him lol

from left to right -
ptolemy, cahya, pops

first concept art i made upon rewriting the story :) i need to figure out how to design a cooler looking ship than this, LOL

very rude to pounce on someone you just met, skipper.

first drawing i did of the "inciting event..." . the visual ended up being really strong i think, so the trash islands became a much bigger part of the story after i drew this.

swippy with pops and cahya, respectively. he has very different relationships with each of them, despite them both being his "caretakers..."

phi and ptolemy. with fronds like these, who needs anemones..?

more pre-story design sketches, from before i gave his uniform long sleeves. i really tapped into something with the "wait a second..." phi

we've been holding back a lot of tears...

sketches for pre-story design phi. and, big forehead.

origin of phibonk, important image. this comic is entitled "horse story." the idea is to demonstrate how flimsy the "pessimist vs. optimist" surface deception is for these characters..well..they're having fun, benignly emotionally manipulating one another

investigating phi's dubious past, and the marks it left on his body... ive ended up redesigning the engineer character in this comic, sophie, since i drew this...

skipper pretends to be mature, but he's actually a crybaby...but actually, he's pretending to act-mature-but-be-a-crybaby, and is actually more mature than he's pretending to act....but actually, deep down, he's really a crybaby. got that straight?

Extremely succinct character summary. drawn very quickly after i started rewriting the story
