More Character Art - Mature Transfigure Cast
Added 2024-06-03 08:39:41 +0000 UTCDevelopment continues steadily. I have created many new assets for the game. I also redid some characters from earlier in development that needed work.
An example is Lucas. The new model is a lot closer to the original concept. Hopefully this gets my favorite penguin’s approval.
Also up for comment is Margaret Roux and Dr. Bloom. I like both of these models. That reminds me I should make a pinup with Sandra, Marg, and Bloom. Teddy’s model I am less sure about so any feedback would be nice. I changed his coloration to be more probable (brown eyes) since the html model was more a product of convenience than story.
With this I have filled in most of the important character art assets. Tim and Ryan still don’t look quite right so I will keep tweaking them until they do. Quite a number of minor characters are getting filled in. Putting this all together it really drives it home how large the character roster is. It is easier to write “a million elephants playing pingpong against gangster rabbits” than it is to recreate that mental image into something more tangible.
The good news is I’ve spent enough time prepping that the production is going smoothly.
Putting it together has also flagged areas that are redundant or that need work. Lots has been edited. A few decisions will get cut. A lot of decisions will lead to one-offs or unique scenes within an existing route.
This week I am going to do some writing with pen and paper as I travel. I think I do some of my best in this style so I will fill in a few of the remaining blanks. When I get back my focus will be on the html game for a bit since I’ve over-promised and under-delivered on that front for a long time.

Deter. I always thought Lucas was a bit older and looks good for his age but I guess I did make Deter look a bit younger than his earlier concepts so there is a slight mismatch now. I will try to post some more comparison art when I can. Thanks, Favorite Penguin!

He should also look slightly younger, since he's rich and has lived a better life than the professor. Re: Teddy - So the trick for Teddy is that he needs to have family resemblance with his two children. I'll need a comparison picture with both his kids to be sure.
