This section is meant to let you guys know the behind the scenes of how the art for the series comes about. I'm an artist, but I won't be the main artist for this series for other reasons. However, I will assist in drawing sketches of the pals because the main artist isn't all that familiar with the game. (Don't worry, we'll get him up to speed. lol) Primarily, he'll be designing the characters you'll grow to love. Some from the game and some made for this story.
As promised, here's the sketches I've been working on as I'm writing the story. Nothing crazy, just Palworld inspired stuff as I look for an illustrator for the series. Let me know what you guys think of these and what you'd like to see later on!
The first of the sketches is Mossanda! He's probably my favorite, and will play a major role in the story. lol So, I had to draw him first lol.
Next up is just some sketches from the artist of the series, Ricardo Gonzalez. During negotiations, he wanted to show that he was capable of drawing for the series and whipped up this next sketch in little to no time. I was impressed, but that wasn't new because I've seen his work before.
From there, we went on to designing Rhea, the main character. First up was her outfit design. I gave him a small yet detailed description of her role in the story and personality, and he was able to whip up this next sketch of outfits.
From the previous sketch, I took the best or my favorite aspects of the outfits and asked him to put it together in one final sketch for her main outfit. I was stunned with his work and he did a phenomenal job with this. From here, we'll be designing her face, but that will be revealed within one of the upcoming chapters, and then we'll work to backdate illustrations in the chapters we have thus far. I'm so excited guys!
