These are my characters from SpacewolfOmega's RP "Space truckers" Which is about a bunch of loser's who ride from planet to planet delivering shipments, but fr some reason they are always short on cash. And bad stuff happens to them alot obviously.
I was originally going to have Sophie alone but decided to squeeze in Ryan, so he may be a tad bit weird looking and rushed. And compared to sophie he has less detail compared to Sophie.
Sophie is a house cat (Obviously), while Ryan is a German sheperd (I'll explain why he's close to bald soon ^^)
Ryan and Sophie grew up in an Orphanage together, which wasn't the most pleasent of places to live due to the cruel owners wrath. The two escaped when they were very young and have been living off the streets ever since (Ironically it's a much better place then the orphanage). They have shifted from oddjob to oddjob until they found one that could finally be atleast stable for a couple of months. Ryan has had enough exsperience to qualify as an engineer in the Space trucking I-Haul firm ship while Sophie has become a custodian (She isn't good at it).
Ryan Buckly (19) is Much smarter then Sophie and has been teaching her everything he learns and has known since they escaped the orphanage. He's much more down to earth, cunning, reasonable and everything else that makes a sharp young man. He recently lost all his hair when Sophie accidentally added too much lighter fluid during a BBQ picnic at an old job. Ryan never goes anywhere without his utilitie belt since he believe's whenever Sophie breaks something he will be the first to fix it. Since it happens Quite alot.
Sophie (18, she doesn't know her last name) herself is... erm... not the smartest apple in the tree. She suffers from mild Down syndrome. While it doesn't affect her physically, it affects her mentally. It may take alot longer for her to soak up knowledge and pretty much anything can break off her concentration or attention, she's also very naive and a bit of a clutz. But at times when she puts her head into hit, she can be very bright, such as when she cooks (She loves to cook, she finds it very fun).
Speaking of which, Sophie is vaguely sadness free. She's always happy or having fun. And she can find it very hard to see evil in people, thinking that everyone can be happy as herself. While that isn't true, that tends to happen to people who hang around her long enough. Always lighting up a rather lousy day and bringing a smile to even the most pissed off of people.
On many occasions, Sophie will ignore Ryan's warnings and go with what she thinks is right. Since she believe's that since she's old enough, she can do things on her own without a guide telling her what to do. This usually spells disaster (Read the RP to find out one such incident).
I actually had quite some fun drawing Sophie but I didn't really like drawing Ryan for some reason, probably because he's mushed into the corner. Either way, I think I did a rather good job.
To go tangential with what Corvus said, their heads are a tad large, but if you want to go for a more chibi-cute look, that is a matter of style. And I agree with him on that you need to make their hands just a little larger.
Love the details you put into their clothing and the utility belt keep that up! =^^=
Biggest thing that I can see is that the feet and hands are scaled too small. The shoe length if you're wanting anatomy to be correct is about as long as the length of the head from chin to top. Results may vary, use only when directed. :>
Other than that, very nice work! I enjoy the facial expressions.
I'm going to redo this picture sometime, maybe this week.
