Shooting star dream.
I figure, no time like the present to try to get back into the swing of Illustration Friday, and no better way to do it than with thinking about characters for a project that’s been nagging at me for far longer than I’d like to admit.
Lately I’ve been experimenting with Tumblr as an outlet for sketches and warmups. Call it my safe space for “quantity over quality”, if you will. It’s an exercise in encouragement to just draw as often as I can. Sometimes a gem emerges, and always it helps me get my head and hands limbered up for the day’s work.

Does this even count as fan art? I suppose it would.
This is one of my favorite roleplaying systems of all time, and my various game masters have adapted it to settings outside of a post-apocalyptic wild west to great success. I haven’t tried the new Reloaded version — no interest really, when this one serves as well as it does.
