And where the hell have you two been?

Designs of the Gravekeeper (left) and the Ghost (right) of my upcoming project, A Dead Name. The Gravekeeper wears a wide-brimmed black hat atop shaggy blue hair. They have a yellow scarf and a grey coat over a pair of overalls that are fitted into rubber boots. In one hand, they hold a crook from which a lantern hangs with a blue glow inside it. The Ghost is a pale-blue specter with a scowl on her face. She has yellow, sunken eyes and pronounced cheekbones, along with sharp, pointed ears and claws. Her hair is two-toned, black on the outside and a bright unnatural blue on the inside.

I can't wait to find out who she is

A sketch of a young woman with pointed ears and unkempt, wavy hair held by a headband. She has makeup under her eyes that resembles long washes, and a clear jacket that ends at chunky bracelets with similar lashes engraved.

I finally have a full reference sheet for my Sona. Art by @squirrelcurls.bsky.social

A reference sheet of an owl like creature. 4 different pictures. 2 of a barn owl with antlers for eyes, 1 as a humanoid like creature with the wings drapped over them like a cloack, 1 of the wings spreading out and the creature resembling a beast with a monster like mouth.

In a time when I feel like the industry is at its lowest, it's an ironic shining light that shows exactly what's wrong in an incredible story. What a treat to be able to watch it ;-;
