The End of Year Show is drawing near...and I'm drawing a LOT

The end of year show is just over two months away! My plan is to have a giant A0 drawing. Salvaged from the dregs of my imagination, it'll be CHOCK FULL of characters, objects, places...whatever crazy stuff that I come up with in the next couple of months.

Drawing has always felt like a necessity for my mental well being; however, from inspiration/idea to execution, it can be a fairly isolating process. That's why I want to document this giant inked monstrosity through the medium of a game; allowing viewers to wander through a representation of my process from idea to execution of a drawing. A medium to root about in my head, maybe.

It's also just a nifty excuse to do two of my favourite things; draw a ridiculous amount, and attempt to make a game! For YEARS I've wanted to create an interactive piece; and this may be my last chance.

Here's a couple of pages of characters (refined drawings and game sprites) that I've been working on for the last couple of days; their rough sketches were originally in my "Doodlebook", which I'll upload another time.

Currently, my plan is to use RPG Maker 2003; I like the crusty lookin' graphics. Ideas are always blurry apparitions in my head until they're on paper, so maybe it's an accurate representation (or I'm just a terrible coder/programmer, and that's my lame excuse...)

I'm unsure if I should make a 'machine' theatric out of this idea, like I did the Drawmatic Converter 5000...I'll see how things go for now.

The Screaming Tombstone in the Desert of Lost Kings...it wants me to rot.

Holeface the Cat...I feel like it's a guide type of character. Maybe because it's a cat? I guess you could store items in it's face. That's pretty cool.

"Ghost Boss"...I came up with this character yesterday, in a lecture. (Short attention span...) The speaker mentioned an artist who's paintings were reminiscent of "Ghost Worlds", and my brain was off!

"Ghost Boss" and its battle sprite. This is my favourite yet...is that...Satan coming out of its mouth??

 Many, MANY more to come soon!!
