It's been almost a full month since I last posted so as I'm sure you can
guess there has been a lot of progress. The word count is at 102363 which may
not seem like a big jump, however the script went through some thorough editing
and is looking all the better for it.
I've mainly spent the past month doing concept artwork, trying to get the
characters onto the page and inhabiting their world. It’s been working out
quite nicely. And since everyone is keen too see them I've decided to upload a
few. It’s a little difficult to choose what to upload however, because the
majority of the illustrations give away important parts of the plot so I've
decided to draw a few specifically to upload here.
Until then I will leave you with a new character design which I'm sure you'll like.

Faolon is a complex and caring character that is both incredibly intelligent and comfortingly sturdy. His role appears drastically different depending on the story but overall he is most present in Rheeven's story as a dependable person. I wanted to get across the fact that he is both strong and intelligent without losing any of his gentleness which was quite a difficult task. I think I pulled it off quite nicely by giving him a strong build and kind eyes. I chose purple to reflect his authoritative position because red felt too aggressive and green was just too weak. I had never originally intended Faolon’s skin colour to be so brown, but it went well with the colour scheme and it seemed to make sense that someone as well rounded as Faolon would be a mixture of the best of all races.
Overall I'm extremely pleased with the way he turned out. What do you think
of him?
