View Full Version : Cookie and Dead (Now with a back story!)
I randomly drew a little sketch in class one day and got around to doing a bigger picture. Here's some new characters I made called Cookie and Dead---
and then there's the Koala Reaper dude and his ducky.

Nice design, Delia. I like Cookie's retro look. I'd like to hear the story behind the characters, too. Will you be placing them in a strip, webcomic, or some other medium?
Im not sure what I plan on doing with them. I'd like to leave them open to be an animation series if possible. I had drawn the rabbit a few days prior when I was bored in class. He was "cute" and had killed himself (hence the rope) and left a note saying "I'm tired of being cute".
A few days later, I scribbled the design for Cookie, and redrew it and figured "meh, they might go together" so I started this drawing, and added the Koala at the very end.
I am surprised I even came up with anything because I've been terrible at coming up with new stuff in the past few years. The professor in Concept Development for Animation Projects has been encouraging us to not start with what story we want to tell--- but rather "what we want to do" so making things has been a little easier. I hope to do something with this.
Edit: here's the first posted picture http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/14099191/
Heh, I like it! Dead especially manages to look 'nicely' spooky in a disturbing way and its interesting to see how teh characters have evolved from that initial post too.
Hope to see some more of these guys. :)

Thanks guys---- and here's the pop-color version of the picture (http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/14202584/)
And the ink lines (http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/14198332/)
I also decided to add the colored version on T shirts and as posters at my little store too. I'm so tempted to buy one to see how it looks.
Delia! I haven't seen you in a while! Cool pics. I like the style, it's pretty cartoony and unique. I, too, love the Koala Reaper, and I think he's gaining a following.:D
I guess he IS popular! hehe.
Well, For those who are fans of Koala Reaper and Ducky--- here's a really lousy character rotation I need to work on, hehe. (http://http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/14232642/)
