floaty Aryon sketch

Here’s a quick color concept for Aryon’s look in the next chapter. I doubt he’ll spend a lot of time floating around, though!

Speedpainty Roza sketch

I’m still working out the details of Roza’s outfit for the next chapter. This isn’t the final design for sure, but I did some quick coloring on it to see how it felt.

I’ve got more sketches for ya!
This one features the new gal seen in last update, surrounded by lots of Nics! I’m just doing warm up sketches, since I haven’t drawn him in a while.

More prelim sketches!
I’m working out the design and colors for another new Roza character- Lodinya’s assistant, Urde.

Roza and the Glass Tower

It’s been quiet around here lately, so I wanted to post a quick update to show how things are coming along. The next Roza chapter, “Roza and the Glass Tower,” is still in development. I’ve roughed out the entire story and I’m now working on the page-by-page script. The last two chapters I tried to limit to 36 pages max, but they ended up feeling rushed in parts. This time I’m less concerned with page count, and as a result this book will probably be twice as long, perhaps even split into two parts. The plan is still to complete this book in the same rough black and white format as I did for Roza and the Sunken Kingdom.

You’re going to see lots of new characters and locations, and I’ll begin showing some more of the concepts here. One of the first new characters in the next book is Terhi, although we don’t get to find out her name in the plot. Below are some rough concept sketches for her.
