character designs from my story “Hell of a Game”
The last 4 months have been a bit rough, I have been burning the candle at both ends trying to finish my 26 page story for Afterworks 2 anthology. Now there are things I like and dislike but I tried hard to make it entertaining and in the end, I did the best I could and finished the story. Here are the main characters.
This is Miles, a thirteen year old kid who lives with his mom and is a product of divorce.
The other kid is Phil, Miles’ only friend..(fyi, some of these early sketches where he was about age 9 or 10, the attitude is correct.)
This is Alice, mom to Miles by day and CNA (certified nursing assistant) by night. Her life revolves around making Miles happy.
This man here is Rex Mundy III, father to Miles and ex-husband to Alice. He is the current North American Manager of Infernus Inc. (aka Hell)
Now to meet Rex’s boss, his name is CEO Death, nuff said.
One last guy who is a bit player in the story, Bill. Bill works at Infernus Inc. and has a run in with Miles. He was one of the fun characters to draw.
Next I’ll post the first 2 pages from ruff layouts to finished color.
