Anyway, how's your comic doing? Any progress with the story? Also, who's the Maine character in it?

The comic is doing well. It's slowly coming together. I am in the process of writing the script for the pilot and hope to start sketching later this month. The only thing left are the setting and building designs, the logo and a few details.

The story is told from the perspective of multiple characters. Typically by WendallPie, CatFigure, CreeCree and SemiSue. All major events are related to FreakShow and CreeCree (and maybe SemiSue), these two are the factors holding the story together.

My designs are usually inspired by objects and animals, or rather the associations I have with them.

For example, my OC LostMedia is a sneaky creature, she sometimes steals things, etc. That's why I gave her a snake head. Because of her risky hobby, LostMedia often needs to hide. Blankets remind me of hiding. She is a snake wrapped in a checkered blanket.

There is no big secret behind my design techniques. Just associations and fun.

I admit that for some projects I didn't even have a plan for the character. An example here is WendallPie. I just wanted them to be weird. Personality, meaning and the rest came with time.
