Cirque du Minuit

In this, I'll be talking about Cirque du Minuit, my horror/fantasy comic. 

Before I get into the description I just wanted to talk about CdM a bit and pretty much how it differs from my other projects.

CdM started as a stupid meaningless comic about a clown girl named Delilah who witnesses the murder of a priest at the hands of a 'Collector' named Jacques. I wasn't drawing it to go anywhere, it was actually so I could test out how to put comics together but the more I drew stuff for it, the more attached I became to the characters and the limitlessness of their story.
That was in 2010. >__>;;

Sooo as you may know, some time has passed since then.
But as a result the circus grew and its become this amazingly huge thing now. Like legit, I'm so excited to start putting it together because I easily believe its the best thing I've ever come up with...

Descript:
CdM initially takes place in a small Italian based island, île de minuit, where the main, Delilah, has lived her whole life. It's Delilah's dream to one day become the lead clown of the Cirque du Minuit, the grand circus that their small island is famous for. But her dream seems impossible as the circus won't have a female clown. 
One afternoon, after being turned down by the Cirque yet again, Delilah heads home feeling maybe its time to hang up her red nose and tutu until she witnesses an odd scene taking place between a dark young man and a priest. After eavesdropping for a bit, Delilah learns she can have her any wish granted by The Master, the head of a mysterious group that plague the island called 'Collectors'. 
On an impulse, Delilah confronts the Collector she'd been watching (Jacques) and asks to have her wish granted. He declines, saying only its not something 'little girls' should get mixed up in and goes to take his leave. 
Delilah follows him and ends up in the Collection, a strange space where Collectors and the Master live. As it is every Collectors duty to see humans safely through the Collection, Jacques begrudgingly accepts the task of seeing Delilah to the Master to have her wish granted and their journey begins.


Literally, that description is vague as hell and there is sooooo much more to even the first parts than that, but I don't want to give anything away.
I'm really really excited by this and I cannot wait to start on the comic because I seriously love this project from the depths of my heart. 
My only concern really is that my artistic skills aren't good enough to convey all the really cool stuff I want to do with this.

I don't even know what to title this...

Drawn by Andi Espinosa, (or others might know her as Countandra on Deviantart) my character Musca Domestica. Main character from a graphic novel I'm working on called Fly Girl. This was like a ten dollar commission, can you believe that?? I feel like I should have paid more... I always feel that way about the commissions I request though XD
I just absolutely loooove this drawing and I hope she doesn't get mad that I'm throwin' it up here. Not that she'd probably ever even find out. My blogs are a public secret after all XD
But anyway, it's absolutely gorgeous no? I just wanted to talk about it a little since I never really got the chance to show it off to anybody X3.
That and I wanna talk about her hair. I mean, goodness to gracious, I could go on about every thing in this forever and what not (Though Andi could have drawn her as a stick figure and I'd probably still love it.) But after looking it at it more carefully, her hair kinda sticks out in my field of vision.
Mostly because I can't really tell if she drew her with short hair, or if her hairs just tucked behind her wings. Either way it doesn't bother me or make me love it any less, I just don't know and that kind of pokes at me. But I got to thinking the other day since she's looks absolutely adorable in this pic, and her hair does look short, she might look good with short hair.
So I drew her in 20's clothes a couple times with that short-ish bob style and I really liked it : 3
I'm not changing her design, I've worked on her design for mooonths and I'm not changing it now on a whim, but I did decide there's going to be a part where her hair gets chopped off by Congrua so I'm in the process of drawing a second design page with her short hair. I'm sucha dork I swear.
Well back to work and such, I've got a GPA to pull outta the trash.

Abnormalities Talk

So I've been distracting from seriously working Fly Girl by some random oc's I came up with the other day, The Abnormalities. Especially today since I made two new kiddo's to join in their very loosely put together world.
I don't even know what I'm going for with them, it's like...Ugh.
But the newbys are Olivia Todd and Simon Von Mitternacht who are a ghastly pair. Simon being a horrible creature thing and Olivia a teen murderess and all.
Though, and this is weird for me, they're antagonists to The Abnormalities...
I guess I should explain a little about it. The story follows three freaks of the earth and their misadventures. Chomps, Peeps, and Gams.
Chomps is a 23 year old former con artist whose got an eccentric personality and a crazy amount of large sharp jagged teeth. Peeps is a 16 year old misfit with a grotesquely huge right eye. He was orphaned at a young age ( he refuses to go into detail about when and what happened)  and has been his towns cast off ever since. Gams is a 19 year old runaway who can't stand her home town on account that everyone makes fun of her because she's 7 and half feet tall and could out do even the most nimble acrobat.
They all get together some way or another and Chomps is their unofficial leader. He's decided that they're going to gather creeps and weirdos from all over and make their very own Freak Show because as far as he's concerned if they're going to be judged and persecuted for being 'abnormal' they might as well make some cash while they're at it.

At some point in their journey for more troupe members, they meet Olivia who has just had a sticky fight with her dearest friend, Simon, and left his care. Olivia is fascinated by the trios life style and wants to join the ranks of their freak show but is denied by Chomps who believes she is much too normal looking to be among the strange.
Unfortunately for the three, Olivia is a quite brutal murderess with a bad temper. She feels Chomps has insulted her extremely and attacks him viciously. Peeps and Gams effectively save their friend in the end and the trio escape Olivia and her demented little town; Leaving the teen to sulk and fester in anger that she was not only 'insulted' but denied her kill. She runs home to her friend Simon (who had been watching her in secret the whole time) and tells him about how poorly she was mistreated by people that should of understood her best. The two then decide to make their new game finding and killing The Abnormalities.

. 3 . I believe this is the first time I've made antagonists and decided straight out that's what they were going to be. Because mostly its just that they were side characters that I eventually made villains. But this pair are goodness to gracious straight out bad guys that I never had any intention making good. They're, like the other three, alot of fun.
I have to do something with this now because it's just so fun.

Here We Go : )

Well damn, another blog.
I'm not going to introduce myself or anything, I've got a profile for that, and this is more so for notes or stupid stuff that just happens to be goin' on in me life.
But I have decided I'm going to make a blog for all my major projects right now. Because while I'm busy trying to piece together the atrocity that is Fly Girl, I have other things I also want to work on too. There are two others that I want to bring to light, Cirque Du Minuit and Radio Head.
Radio Head is defiantly not anything I plan on really working on though, because the storyline is shaky and aloooot of it has yet to be defined. I'm thinking of actually just polishing it down to the characters I like to draw and working with them. Meh, we'll see.
Cirque Du Minuit is actually what I'd like to be primarily working on right now instead of Fly Girl. I have that thing mapped out from beginning to end, I've just been sort of adding things in lately though. I need to practise some realism too so  I can draw my scenery. Loooots of scenery in that thing. I don't know how I'll survive it which is why I'm mainly focusing on Fly Girl...
Thought Fly Girl is hard too since all the beginning chapters involve me drawing crazy realistic insects...
But anywhoo~
I perfer blogger more than my Deviantart so I may just update here from now on. Yup, one update a day, everyday X3
Ok I'm done.
