...and it wasn't a prescription for me!

Ulysses Dies at Dawn character designs!

Some notes:

I wanted the designs to not be fully human but was having a lot of trouble thinking how to implement that. With no animals in the city, could it be that the people became them? In the end it felt too much to balance, especially with all the augmentation. Let’s choose to believe that even though they look human, there’s actually something horribly alien about them that is simply not visible in these designs.

Music inspo: since blues feature heavily in this album, I figured the 1920s would be perfect. The film noir vibes also worked with this, seeing as the 20s marked a significant transition from silent film into “talkies”. Unfortunately this is an album with one female character and a lot of the iconic 20s fashion is female oriented. Hopefully I managed to make it recognizable even so.

The fashion style is meant to be a mix of 700 bce (Greek Mythology) and 1920s (film noir theme).

[ID: a digital drawing of Dr. Carmilla holding a bloody knife, with hands forming a broken halo around her head. Dr. Carmilla is a vampire, a woman of color with short red hair, wearing a white kimono with pink flowers, and a black vest. She is looking at the viewer with intense glare, and half her face is dark. In one hand she holds a bloodied tantō knife, defensively, and in the other hand she holds a silver cane. Around her head there is a broken golden halo, held by the Mechanisms' hands. Clockwise, the hands are: Ivy Alexandria, Ashes O'Reilly, the Toy Soldier, Nastya Rasputina, and Drumbot Brian. Some hands hold the halo with a flat palm, while others appear to be reaching to Carmilla. There is another hand grasping Carmilla by the sleeve of her kimono, Jonny D'Ville's. The grasp is aggressive, but there is golden light of the halo shining from his fist. The background is dark, the halo casts golden light on Carmilla. End ID]

Dr. Carmilla the love of my life <3
