A real artist and player of the game noticed my comic and decided to do this piece after seeing New Friends, Part 8 - Sunset (Finale) which he found inspiring for some reason. Probably he couldn't stand how wrong I was doing some of the costume details like Garuk's horns
Speaking of, he's got a special post with samples of those particular horns because they give all us amateurs trouble
On the other hand, he said this was his first time trying anime-style eyes and asked if I had any input. I modified the faces a bit to be more in-line with the style here:
I wanted this picture to get across how Jordan is both peaceful and dangerous at the same time. Her powers of darkness are very strong, but safe so long as you don't get on her bad side
In looking for a good screen capture to match the sketch, I came across this one from an Eden trial and liked it.
In this pic, I show Gale running with super speed and leaping off a tall freeway. She's wearing her new outfit (that I still haven't managed to get in the comic yet) and I used this as Gale's Storm/Sonic guide.
You can see the pencil sketch here.
Here is Shazel with her new hairstyle (which will be introduced in an upcoming comic).
I had originally planned to include a gargoyle near her, but that didn't work out.
Note that Shazel's hairstyle is planned for a change, but this sketch obviously gives that away.
This was intended to be artwork for use in Gale's guide. I had a pretty lame modified screencapture previously back before I felt confident enough to do something worthwhile by hand
I also included the headshot from various angles in an effort to see if I could draw them in different positions. Profiles and backs of heads are actually not very easy.
It should be noted that Gale's in her new outfit (which as of now, I haven't revealed in the comic yet). You can see the finished product here: Leaping Gale - Colored
This was the design I came up with to replace the old page. The first design just used some screenshots:
My second attempt used actual art (I finally felt like I was skilled enough to attempt it).
This was a sketch I did in a boring meeting. I tried to draw the girls in plain clothes and added conceptual art for Garuk and Mudnuke.
Hmm. I think Gale ended up a bit cross-eyed.
