Octofussy

The dog just put his nose in my armpit.  It surprised me so much I had to tell you about it.

OH! and his name is Otto.  Props to Matty for the inspiration.

In French we say Couleur

Her school's mascot/team/whatever...its the Trojans.  And the rival?  Did you guess the obvious?  It is a kids show after all.  The Titans.  I am pretty sure there is a dab of irony somewhere in this.

Line Up

In order:

Pan - Posey's best friend

Medusa - One of the popular, bitchy girls

Posey - (holla)

Athena "Tina" - Part of Posey's posse

Artemis "Emi" - Also part of Posey's posse

Color next?  Maybe?

Posey Poses

hurrayyy...

Here is Posey's Best friend/Pet.  No name yet.

Posey Knows Best

So  hey, hows it going?  How's your mom?  Remember I said I was working on two projects simultaneously?  Yeah well, this is totally the other one.  Her name is Posey, daughter of Poseidon (ha get the name?  I am clever.)  and she lives on land and in the ocean.  Her best friend is Pan (half goat bwaha) and she has a pet octopus who goes with her everywhere.  Or tries to, he is an octopus after all.  Her natural enemies are the popular kids: Aphrodite, Scylla and possibly Achilles. Outcasts of school are Pandora, Artemis,  Hermes. She is friends with Athena, who is a nerd.  So I have plans, as usual.  But only sketches of both Posey and her Octopus, who I dont as of yet have a name for.  Its better working on both of these at once.  My goal is a more cartoony feel, as I haven't at all done that in a long time.  Anyway.

mid century man

I think I might name him Everett?  Nothing is solid really, its all still in pencil stages even.  Hes the main male character, but totally not the most important person in the story.  Hes a side character more than anything.  I like that I kept drawing him worried without meaning to.  He must have anxiety issues.  Maybe I'll draw him a psychiatrist with a tiny little prescription pad and a dusty fake plant.  He can cry into her shoulder pads.

boy howdy

Here is the main bad guy character.  My thoughts for her were this:  actress turned fashion designer (craaaazy woman) who hates all things beautiful cause shes totally a big raisin.  I havent concretely figured out her name but its something like dita von dita or something von something.

She hates children and has two pet ferrets she wears around her neck like they were furs.  Remember the eels in the little mermaid?  They are like those.  But the best part is that she dresses them up too, and they hate it(and comedy ensues{?}).  I havent figured her body yet but its full of that old person body type that seems to be a mixture of awkward pooch and bony corners.  So her face is figured out.   This project seems to be about outfits now.  What the hell?

I love your face(s)

So...hows it going?  You miss me?  I missed you.  I thought about you often.  

I just moved....a month ago...but I promised myself no fun stuff until I found a job.  Which I did...at Andrew Christian.  He is one of the designers from The Fashion Show on Bravo.  I do things for him, most of it involving photoshopping muscly models.   I totally like it so far.

SO ANYWAY I started doing stuff immediately for my portfolio.  I have a TON of stuff to show.   I have two projects that I am moving back and forth from.  The Quinn Project, which I have a bunch of stuff planned, and another currently untitled project that is more Cartoon friendly, i.e. television not movies.  Its a little girl (I am leaning towards Olivia as a name but I kind of want a really weird name, maybe an object, like Apple) and her best friend who is an octopus.  I am going to show all the Quinn project stuff first.  These are 3 henchmen of the main bad character.  Process.  The bottom three are the final faces, and the numbers correspond to their silhouette.  So expect POST EXPLOSION!  HANDLE IT!
