“I will go to my grave in a state of abject endless fascination that we all have the capacity to become emotionally involved with a personality that doesn't exist.”
-Berkeley Breathed

Still working on that 100 Original Character Challenge, sure, but I feel so much more motivated to upload my OCs and ideas in general now too, even if I don't have the completed idea up, ya know? But here is Rosemary and her cool hair, because cool hair is cool. I should really stop using my phone to do take pictures of my work and scan them instead, but mmmmmeeeeeeeehhhhhhh...
Also, I finally drew the team pet, Parsley. A little intelligent fellow that's got a good sense of direction and supposedly understands what everyone's saying to him, though he probably doesn't care either way. He's inspired by the Norse legends of Ratatoskr, a squirrel that delivers messages up and down Yggdrasil, so yeah, he's also used like a carrier pigeon when people are too lazy to get up on certain days. Ignore the fact that he's perched pretty awkwardly on that shoulder and you'll see that he's adorable. He'll attack you if you say otherwise.

Also it's been a while since I used Paint Tool Sai all by itself (excluding the pencil work, or course), and I got to try out a few new brushes, mostly with the hair. It's pretty fabulous.

After I drew Rosemary, I also wound up drawing another character with cool hair when I really should get working on my homework now.

Comments are, like always, appreciated!

For some reason, drawing this made me want to draw Nargyle's characters, Enna and Thunder: sailorx2.deviantart.com/art/En…

I love the warm colours you used in this one, and that hair has an amazing design too.
