It was a lot of fun, experimenting with their designs. First time drawing some of the secondaries! and this cast is by far the most racially diverse, of any of my OC universes, I’m pretty excited. I was kind of inspired by Durarara!!!’s “tower” as I’ve been re-watching the series on and off today.
Now, this story is based off Sherlock Holmes (or rather, an OC alternate version of it), so if anyone can take a wild guess at who is who…. and get most of them right…. you will not only make my day- but I will feature your blog on the finished picture. :3
…….i am sitting here realizing how many spoilers this thing accidentally has in it…. ha!
She is the priestess of her homeworld. Dubbed the Ash Bride because she was born marked -marked as bride of the King- however, with the Royal lineage long destroyed, she will forever remain in mourning.
This is a very sad, and embarrassingly quicky sketch I sort of scratched out last night, between fuming rages of stress and depressing lack-of-inspiration. (art just stresses me out man). It probably defies every discription Nonomella gave of her (*shame*), but this is how I remember picturing her OC Ava.
Ava is from her mind-blowing novel http://fav.me/d243cgf, that I had the amazing honor of reading way back when.
If you haven’t read any of Nonomella/RachelLaroche/PheonixKarr’s work… then sweetheart you haven’t lived.
Ava’s adventure was one of the most monumental inspirations for me to start writing.
and keep writing. Everytime I sit down to write, Ava -affectionetly- pops up into my head. Mumbling random strings of information with that other-worldly grin.
