Autumn Sketch Page (Introducing Ali!)

Hey! Ya, you!

Lately I've been pretty occupied with a ton of stuff such as work, working on a comic (proper announcement on that later), and learning Blender. Especially with work; I am completely fed up with these silly minimum wage type of jobs at this point in my life, but I digress.

In the little pockets of free time in between at that, I've been filling up a whole page of sketches of Autumn and, for the first time, her feline companion Ali.


The idea for Ali the cat being Autumn's companion has existed right from the very start of the story's conception but I never really got around to drawing or designing them (unless you count 
this animation that was posted awhile ago, then sure, that was Ali's first appearance; the cat wasn't even named Ali at that time.)
I don't have much confidence with drawing animals at all, which is why I've been pushing off fleshing out Ali's design. Better late than never, right? Ali's design is currently a work in progress.

Oh, and that's right! Bottom left corner. First time we're seeing Autumn's witchy mother!

Once I finalize the design for Autumn, her mother, and Ali, I'll be sure to get started on a character line up for them. I feel like a character line-up page for the "Witched Away"  and "Mr. Ridiculous" story projects are kind of overdue, but I think it feels like that because I've been doing a lot of sketches for those characters behind the scenes and their designs seem to have stuck.

And as I mentioned earlier, surprise! I'm working on a comic! A proper announcement will be made later on (probably way later.)

See you guys in probably a month!
