March contest! Dungeons and Dragons Rascals

This is my WIP thread for the contest, as is tradition!

Whenever I get an assignment/project I'm trying to do something (ANYTHING) to get started on it the day I get it. So I redid some kiddo dnd characters I did couple years ago.

I'm sure I'll think up a bunch more before I even decide which way to leap, but I kinda like the idea of the prompt being in a game's 'choose your character' screen.

As always, feedback is always appreciated as I doodle along for the month!

I had some other people on the discord vote for sammy too, so I'm exploring his adventuring setup (with companion llama) I'm gonna go for a 'character select' kinda screen with some statistics and info around the zoomed face.

I like your “gaming” concept can’t wait to see more!

These characters are so cute!

As always, you are on fire I’m always so motivated to try and draw whenever I see your work haha

@Braden-Hallett Yay, Sammy! That's a clever way to do the sitting pose!

@miranda-hoover Sammy 'strudel thief' Donovan. Orphan. Stableboy. Strudel-thief. Keeper of the village's finest long-haired 'battle' llama.

The village elders BEGGED Sammy to take one of the village Akbashes, but Sammy insisted on his llama. Little known fact, llamas HATE goblins.

@Braden-Hallett Perfect

BradAYoo · 6 Mar 2021, 20:39

Yeah, I like Sammy the most as well. I am digging those head and body shapes!

Elliot · 7 Mar 2021, 03:02

I'm another one who loves Sammy!

ruth · 7 Mar 2021, 12:54

Yep! Another fan of Sammy, and his llama! (Although all your characters are really great, and I particularly like the name Nyxy Boondiggle ). He definitely looks the most naive, and I vote him most likely to end up in all sorts of extremely awkward and perilous situations.

messin' around with the composition, colours, expressions, yadyadyada

kylebeaudette · 8 Mar 2021, 23:02

Very cool characters here

braden H · 9 Mar 2021, 16:13

@kylebeaudette thanks man! I much prefer your puppets (mannequins?)

braden H · 9 Mar 2021, 16:15

More doodles. I wonder if it's possible (or painful) to put piercings in horns?

Considering it's not painful to cut a cow's horns, I think you're safe!

Your work is looking really good! I love to see your process. I really love the vibe of this kid, especially with the kinda "about to eat" (open mouthed) pose
