We’re getting really close to a design that I was satisfied with. I still sorta do, but I’m very much okay with what I end up with.
I made this and a close friend of mine was like, “That looks like Vex from League of Legends.” I don’t play League and I looked her up then immediately went, “Dammit!” haha!
Sometimes you can’t help but have your characters be similar to something else that’s out there. I think there are artists and writers who are afraid of that and I totally get it. These days, if a character of mine happens to resemble another more popular one, I think “Cool!” and move on if the design isn’t too similar. And then if someone recognizes the influences I pulled from I go, “Yeah! You like that too?” and promptly geek out with them.
I always get pleased when someone knows what I pull from. It means we have something in common and that’s what I like to see.

I hope that my stories make your day a little better and that you'll enjoy them as much as I do.
