Various Planning

Planning for stories and stuff.
Word, dawg.

note: this intro hasn't been thoroughly updated in a couple years

This is a world I made mostly for my own use, but I made it a public world anyways. I'll be posting things about story outlines, my characters, my comics (including fan comics), WIPs, ect... It's pretty much a world where I can store information and/or plan things. xD

Below are short descriptions of my stories to help you know what's going on. xD It also shows which characters are in which story, along with their extended profile if I have one made. Some stories aren't mentioned because I don't work on/think about them often. Therefore, not all of my characters are mentioned.

Comic Strip WIPs: OFAV

Yeah.... I finished sketching the next two OFAV strips, but I have yet to ink them.
[click]
The bottoms got cut off in the scan. D: Oh well. There was nothing important there anyways. It's probably really difficult to read, especially the stuff TB's saying in the 2nd strip. If you need me to translate (transcribe? idk.), tell me. xD;

OKAY! SCHOOL STARTS IN TWO DAYS! Nooo...

ALSO, HAPPY BIRTHDAY DARE! He's the only character of mine whose birthday I sort of remember to mention. Rick's birthday was a week or so ago, but I forgot. 8D I don't remember the birthdays of any of my other characters.

Marker Doodles: Kasey and Jo

Yeah. Kasey is on the top, Jo is on the bottom. Out of all the cast in Of Fruits and Vegetables, I draw these two the least. :I Probably because they're both girls. xD I have trouble drawing girls... but they're fun to draw. I like making outfits for Kasey. :D

FUN FACTS!

Jo and Kasey were originally going to be a couple, but I changed that. Now they're just best friends.
Kasey was going to be a "scene" girl (how? xD), but once I realized I had no idea what I was doing, I changed her to... whatever she is now.
Kasey has an eyebrow piercing, but it's hard to see since her hair covers her eyebrows. xD; It's a remenant of when I wanted to maker her scene. Although, do scene kids really wear eyebrow piercing...?
Kasey was also going to be white. Idk what ethnicity she is anymore. She's supposed to be Spanish, but I can't get the skin tone and features right. xD; ~~MAYBE I SHOULD USE A REFRENCE....~~
Jo purposly has a big chest and small hips, while Kasey purposly has a small chest and big hips. ...I don't remember why I did this, but I did. xD I think it's because "ideal girls" have a big chest and big hips, so I decided to split up those features into two people.
Similar to the above, Jo wears low cut shirts, but covers up her legs/hip area with pants or skirts with shorts; Kasey wears tops that don't show any cleavage, but also wears freakishly short skirts, dresses, and shorts.
Unlike other female characters of mine, I actually color make-up on Jo and Kasey.

OKAY. That was random. :D; Thanks for reading, if you did.

BOMBARDMENT OF DOODLES!

I got a new sketchbook a couple of months ago, and doodled a lot in it. So here is everything in my sketchbook except a few concept stuff of a new character (it's for Wakusei's challenge, so I don't want to spoil the surprise) and some other stuff I didn't feel like scanning.
So it's not really everything in my sketchbook, after all... xD; Anyways, here. Random stuff... and one picture on graph paper.

The first things I drew in my new sketchbook. :d Near the bottom, I wanted to practice drawing Tim. C: The picture on the right looks better... But I can never draw him well with two eyes. o_x; And then I started randomly writing "blah" in different ways...

Concept drawings of Nana and Popo (the ice climbers) for TAOMAR. :d These two are fun to draw. xD

Some of my way old characters. xD; Except that mini Charles Darnay under Hichiro. Oh, and that lady singing into a pencil in the top right. (It's a gorgeous picture of my little sis.)
I don't really like any of these characters. They're boring. xD;;;

I usually draw Dare when I'm bored. xD;;; H-HE'S JUST FUN TO DRAW... ;3;

Outfit and pose idea for a picture I want to draw of Michka. This is how most of my pictures start out. :>

Some OFAV doodles. :D Leah is the girl Dean likes. Mick is Leah's boyfriend.
And that's me on the top. I had hiccups, my hair was frizzy because I didn't flat iron it, and because I was about to go to sleep, wasn't wearing glasses. xD;;

A headshot of Damian. :d My aunt was curious as to how I colored, so I drew this quickly. This is the first time I've sketched, inked, and colored something in one sitting since... a long time. xD

Okay.
This is a really odd picture.
Ew.
So I wanted to draw a picture of Stefan and Gabe... but I forgot Gabe was such a pervert. Bah.
Gabes hand was originally on Stefan's neck. And then it was around his shoulder. And then it was on his butt, and stayed there.
.....
Don't expect pictures like this from me. xD

AND THAT'S ALL! :D yeah.

Color scheme opinion?

I'm having a little bit of trouble with Kasey's color scheme. (Kasey's one of the girls who does Tomato's make-up, if you don't remember.)
You see, I originally intended for Kasey to be fair skinned, so I came up with the colors for her outfit based on that. But when I decided I wanted Kasey to be more olive-toned, her outfit didn't match well. Here's Kasey's color scheme at the moment:

Do you have any color suggestions? I have a lot of trouble with colors, so some feedback would be really nice. :)

Concept Sketches: Kasey and Dean

External Image
Some more character planning/refrences/sketches/something or other. :D
This is the last of Tomato's hair-and-makeup crew. There are other people who do his hair and stuff when he's modeling, but they don't usually stay constant. o3o
Anyways, this is Kasey (left) and Dean (right). More mini profiles:

Name: Kasey
Age: 26
Gender: Female
Height: 5'6
Special Talent: Make-up
Hobbies: Reading magazines, make-up, hanging out with Jo
Likes: Pop-culture magazines
Dislikes: Haughty people
Sexual Orientation: Heterosexual
Love Intrest: any "hot" guy.
Personality: Gossip-y, bubbly

She's Jo's girlfriend and does Tomato's make-up. She's into pop-culture and is up-to-date on the latest gossip. She loves to gossip. xD; It says in her profile that she dislikes haughty people, and you may be thinking "Isn't Tomato haughty?"
Well... Tomato is nice and up-beat, so she likes him. :D

Name: Dean Johnson
Age: 22
Gender: Male
Height: 5'8
Special Talent: Hair styling, make-up, following orders
Hobbies: Doing whatever Gabe, Jo, Kasey, Tomato, or Stefan tell him to do. (Not really a hobby, but...)
Likes: Leah
Dislikes: Mick
Sexual Orientation: heterosexual
Love Intrest: Leah
Personality: Submissive

This is actually my friend's character! :D Kinda. She drew him in a picture (along with a girl and another guy), and I named him Dean and gave him a personality. She said I could use him. :)
Anyways, Dean is the hairstyling assistant/make-up assistant/wardrobe supervisor for Tomato. Baisically, he gets all the grunt work. xD; He's also the youngest... he's FRESH OUTTA COLLEGE. :D
He's a super pushover, and HAS NO BACKBONE. (not literally.)
People boss him around a lot.
He has a crush on a girl named Leah, but Leah has a boyfriend.
