Cute, ShiroiHikari.
This is one of my characters. I've been debating with myself whether this should be my final design for his face. I do know that in the end, I'll have to enjoy drawing him over and over again for quite a while, and the amount of times his face appears will be doubled. He has an identical twin who has a different haircut.
I can't decide if he's handsome (which he has to be). My sister doesn't really like him. She says he looks weird. This character is not from our (Krescent Moon's and mine) online comic,
The Last World.
And those little questions I've seen floating around.
1) How long have you been drawing?
-Quite a while
2) what is your hardest part to draw?
-The feet
3) How did you conquer that difficultly (eg, I am having a real
hard time of drawing hands, legs, feet and arms)
-Look at my own feet and rationalize that my character has nicer looking ones so it's fine
4) How did you come up with the idea for your own bishies (ie hair style, clothes, personality... anything!)
-Depends.
The Last World characters are mainly the wilder and stranger spontanious ideas floating around in my head. Other characters I generally spend a longer time on, perfecting them until I get an image that fits the character's role, personality, or mental picture.
1) Which do you usually determine first... the genre (eg fantasy) or the general plot?
-I decide them together, though usually the plot drags along a genre.
2) How do you develop your stories? EG: Do you start from the beginning and just write, or do you think up different scenarios you want in the story and play 'connect the dots/scenes?
-I start with the plot and the ending.
3) How do you come up with names for your characters?
-Depends. It could be, "what sounds good", "I'll rearrange this word", or the handy dandy baby's name book.
4) Which character is your favourite?
-Father Galen from
The Last World. He's already made an appearance, but I'm not going to say where or when. He'll be revealed in a couple of years. Actually, make that an infinte amount of years.
5) How do you determine the personality of your character?
-Depends. I usually decide the personality, then draw the character based on it; although, the random characters that make up
The Last World are done the other way around.
