tephraJust a couple of doodles from the last couple days.
This guy with the braids and mohawk is actually a second generation character in one of the many stories kicking around in my head. I can't for the life of me remember his name, it's in my notes on my main PC though. His mother forbid him to shave his head for a proper mohawk like his father's (no, I don't really get her logic in allowing this either) so this is a passable compromise. He thinks this is way cooler than his dad's hair, but don't let mom know that. In case it's not clear, the hair on either side is in cornrows until it reaches a point in line with the back of the roached portion and his ears, then it's just braided out. The hair behind that line is in lots of itty bitty braids, though I have no idea how to get that idea across on paper yet. Just the relatively few braids in this drawing had me rethinking the wisdom of characters with lots of braids.
As for this one, well I'm sure where she comes from. I was just fiddling around with faces and ears and that lead to the short hair which in turn lead to piercings (yes, I'm on a piercings kick right now) and from there to the tattoos/makeup and funky hair dye. Apparently her name is Zef, perhaps short of zephyr which is a pretty cool word that doesn't get used enough.
I kinda like her.
