#amonstrife

I’m re-writing a short drabble I have for Amonstrife, about a trip out to the tourist-trap space station. The original drabble had a character called Orchid, who was a drake (a small species of dragon on Amonstrife) she was cheerful, bubbly, talkative, and outgoing. But since originally writing it, the Drakes have been scrapped as a concept.

So I had to switch her character, an chose a species of alien called a Kaladria. But her entire character has changed beyond recognition? Like the moment I decided to change it from cheerful-mini-dragon, they became intersex masculine leaning, stoic and moody, blunt but honest, and only somewhat friendly.

These two are suuuper old characters of mine who I've had for years, technically longer than 2014, but thats the time I drew them originally.

Anya is the elder sister, and runs her own cafe and jewellery business, she's the more quiet and reclusive of the pair, a woman of very few words, but will be a firm friend if you manage to get past her defenses.

While Bethany is the younger sister, who was roped in to joining the royal guards at 18, and became the youngest ever Drone Pilot, she's probably had the bigger redesign of the two, as she got buff! She's also quiet and withdrawn, but can be a bit more chatty than her sister.

Aaaand that’s Bethany done! she’s the younger sister to Anya who I posted th other day, she’s a member of the Royal Guards, and her role is as a drone pilot in the Empress Guards.

started work on Anya’s sister Bethany, which was fun until I started sketching her mech suit

Anya’s done and dusted! I’m so pleased with how she’s come out!! I kept looking at her old art and thinking it was fine I didn’t need to update it, but then I got the urge and I’m SO GLAD I went along with it, she looks so much better now! Also fun to see how I’ve improved, look at me not hiding hands anymore!!

GLOW UP TIME

Anya is actually one of my oldest characters? she exsisted in her own story back in 2014, then later on the early stages of Amonstrife, before being updated to fit the New Amonstrife.

Rough alien design for Amonstrife. these guys are BIG with 20 limbs a hardened exoskeleton (and vulnerable belly) and a mouth that spits the head open in four directions. to top it off they're highly aggressive and territorial, and have advanced technology, they're the sole invaders of Amonstrife, and surprisingly failed to take over the planet!
