Miscellaneous Drawings #4

Previous parts: #1, #2 and #3

Greetings Travelers! 

I thought it was time to do another drawing post, so here it is: 

This drawing was actually inspired by a prompt that my writing group on NaNoWriMo posted-- which was a guest prompt by Alien Romance. The prompt involved frogs, so, I ended up deciding to draw Ophelia helping a frog get back to its pond. Since Ophelia is a priestess to the Earth elemental goddess, it seemed in character for her to do that. 


A drawing of Oceana my siren character-- I really like how her hair turned out. 
I really wanted to capture her personality in the drawing, and I think I managed to. 


I was kind of frustrated that Tinker Bell's wing was healed at the end of The Secret of the Wings
So I redesigned her as if she never had her wing healed and was much closer in character to another fairy, Rani. 

Austen is a character who used to be part of The Mystery of the Body Thief. He used to be Ophelia's boyfriend interestingly enough. However, I'd figured I'd redraw him (since I drew him a while ago) and reuse him but in a different story. 

I don't know which story he should go in, but I am thinking a ghost story of some kind might be fitting for his character. Given that he is in between being dead and alive-- and isn't quite dead, and isn't quite alive.



This is an old D&D character, who I decided to redesign and redraw and may use in a story of some kind. The Character's name is Sarah, and she is a warrior-- Her lower body is paralyzed so she uses a wheelchair, but that does not stop her from fighting, because she is skilled fighter with a bow and arrow. 

And lastly, I have a drawing of Elm. I've been playing around recently with drawing in Photoshop and been getting better at it. This was one of my recent attempts, and I really like how it turned out. 
Also, here's a video I made of my process of drawing her:

My Camp NaNoWrimo Novel April 2018: The Mystery of The Body Thief


Hi everyone,
I hope you are having an awesome April... I have some exciting news! I finished my Camp NaNoWrimo word count goal! :)  (However, I am still working on my novel.)

Synopsis 

Horatio wakes up from being in a coma, but he doesn't remember anything that happened before he fell into unconsciousness. All that he remembers is a name, "Annabelle!" 

Also... Detective Inspector Time finds himself having to solve a case without Lady Annabelle.
Murders have been happening throughout many different kingdoms, and no one knows who exactly is behind it all. 

Characters

In this novel there are quite a few characters. I won't list all of them, I'll just mention the main characters.

Horatio- A servant boy who woke up from a coma, he doesn't remember anything except a name "Annabelle."

Lady Annabelle- She and Horatio fell into a coma at the same time, except unlike him she hasn't woken up.

Detective Inspector Time- An elvish detective, who is trying to figure out who could be behind the recent murders of royalty.

Phillip- The Captain of the Guards, who is a dwarf.

Veronica- Annabelle's Lady in Waiting, who is a fairy.

Marigold- Time's adopted daughter, who is working with her father on the case.

Ophelia- The castle nurse, though she is a nurse she dislikes blood, and well anything medical.
Some people in the castle wonder why she became a nurse in the first place.

Austen- The new coroner, who is also helping Time solve the case.


Excerpt


He opened his eyes, his head felt incredibly dizzy and memories flashed in front of him for no  particular reason, and voices calling a name: 
Annabelle, Annabelle!” 
the name felt like it had a meaning for some reason but he could not place it. Suddenly he felt a hand on his wrist. 
“Sir” said a stern voice, that sounded as deep as a bass. “You suffered from severe trauma to the head and were in a coma for 24 hours.” 

Story music 

This is kind of a sneak peek at the story soundtrack I am working on for the story soundtracks page...

This is the theme song of my book.

                                    This song reminds me of a scene from my book.
