Distractable Adventurer

You can call me Ash. I’m an artist and aspiring writer posting my art into the void of the internet.

Current Project:

The Whistle-Stop Couriers (working title)

- returning to my roots and revamping one of my oldest stories I started brainstorming in middle school (over a decade ago…yeesh)

- a story focusing on a small courier business in a city full of superheroes, supervillains, and other people with powers

- planned to be illustrated prose (maybe with small comic sections)

First up we have Frederick and Helena Gable, a.k.a Bastion and the Rook! Fred is an independent journalist, and Helena is a defense attorney specializing in superpowered law. They have the powers of super strength and flight respectively. Fred is more often than not the public face of their team (known as The Flock), while Helena focuses more on doing detective work from the shadows.

And here are the sidekicks, August Adams and Camila Esteves, a.k.a. Limelight and Copycat! Both are college students, with Camila studying biology and August undecided. Limelight can generate hard light constructs, and Copycat can temporarily replicate other people’s superpowers. They work alongside Bastion and Rook respectively.

(This includes finally drawing the actual superheroes in this superhero setting lol. They’ve existed in my mind basically since the beginning but since they aren’t the main focus they hadn’t gotten any finished art yet. They’re gonna get their own post soon to finally introduce them. :3)

I’m doing Art Fight this year! We’ll see how many attacks I’m able to do, but at the very least the prep has motivated me to rework my character designs (and finally do some I haven’t gotten around to yet!).
