#14 Initiate of Whispers
There are those who hear voices when there is no one speaking. Most talk of these folk in hushed voice in dark corners of the pubs. Still as odd as these individuals are there are some still that are by far worse.
There are those who hear voices and the voices follow them, like audible pets floating in the ether. These voices speak and all hear their cries, screams, prattle, and whispers. These individuals are quickly taken away by the Order of Whispers. Surely voices without a face can drive one mad, but these people can topple kingdoms with their presence. The whispers that surround them drive all insane. The Order strives to quiet the voices, to teach their disciples control. It is rumored though, in those same dark corners, the Order is actually a cover for assassins.
Imagine being killed by voices alone, thousands of them calling out in a chaotic choir. When the madness took you and your life ended no one would suspect.
The Order of Whispers is one of the many factions in Feral Legacy, a love letter to my wife.
#14 Sorashi
Trying to make up my lost day! Hopefully I’ll be back in the swing of things within another day or two.
I actually got a feeling of warm, fuzzy nostalgia drawing this character. Three or four years ago, I was downright obsessed with drawing big cats, particularly lions. My intense study of The Lion King during that time, I believe, played a big factor in the improvement of my art. It’s been a while since I drew a non-anthro (other than that dragon from the other day), and let me say, it feels good to get back to my roots.

El Loco character Bible #4/5: RadicalMan
I am posting two characters to try to catch up!
Here is RadicalMan:
I loved Ultra Man when I was a kid. Radical~Man can grow over one thousand feet. He sits on Mt Fugji to think and leans on the Sears tower when he gets tired.
Another character I devised is
Lujuria
(I can’t draw worth !@#$)
This is “Lust”. She is as deadly as she is… lust..y? I don’t know. A very beautiful and dangerous character. No man can resist her. It’s like the Girl in the red dress, and you sing the song in your head.
#14 The Pantsless Gadfly
Totally coasting on this one — I’ve been doing my characters by choosing descriptive words at random, in this case they were pantsless and gadfly. Take from it what you will. You can tell I’ve been reading Kim Deitch all weekend, though.
Day 10: The Huehe
Huehe (pronounced “hweh”) are creatures that make their homes largely in damp forests and in coastal areas, although smaller populations can be found in more frigid regions. They are predators but rarely attack people, choosing to hang back from populated areas for the most part. Huehe are very peculiar because their growth rate is completely unpredicted. While all Huehe are born at about the size of an average newborn kitten, their sizes at adulthood vary wildly. Some stay tiny their entire life, while others can get as big as horses. Bigger specimens have been reported but are extremely rare.
People have spent generations breeding Huehe for different sizes and uses. Many people keep the smaller Huehe as pets, and farmers/traders tend to use the larger ones for transportation. There are a million other uses for the creatures though, and the people of the world won’t be done exploiting the species any time soon!
#15 Nudist Zombie
Nudist Zombie . Probably the most disturbing thing you will ever see .but keep an open mind were all naked underneath .It’s just that we’re not all zombified,
El Loco character Bible #3: El Diablo
Obviously I can´t draw.
Here is another character I created for the book, El Diablo. He´s the devil. This guy will kill main and try to ruin El Loco. He´s going to be a real real bad guy.
#18 Celestina
Another Michelle/Vito collab.
Concept: Celestina is the embodiment of the galaxy. She’s similar to the pagan goddess, Sinthgunt, or the Marvel Comics character, Eternity. In my head, her role is performed similarly to Roma; in other words, she intervenes when the universe itself is in danger.
Design: All Michelle. So, I asked her, “What were you thinking?” Her answer:
“I don’t remember.”
Love that girl.
Anyway, she did say that the jaguar/panther (not sure what it is) is her familiar.
