I have a big shoulder, and nobody touch it!

The guy at the top is a Mercenary class, but I gave him a big shoulderpad so he can upgrade to Hero-class without too many hassles. He has blue-green hair and eyes, but I still think he looks too much like Raven. He’s also got a red shirt with a blue undershirt, and the shoulder pad is brown with grey spikes (oh, how very interesting. >_<7) He might be the brother of the peg knight shown yesterday.
The guy at the bottom has, like I said, creamy crinkly hair. He’s (lord somebody) and a bit of a dandy about the hair. Since then we’ve determined that his name is Shale, which, I would say is a ‘totally awesome’ name. My brother is going to punch me now. I discovered, however, that verbally ‘punching’ – just saying “punch” or “poke” or “kick” gives the same sense of satisfaction but takes much less effort. World peace has advanced another step. Anyway, Lord Shale is a Sage-class. I said that, didn’t I. Huh. My brother says he looks too girly. I don’t care. I really like the pose on the left, which will be used for his ‘official art’ but the one on the right is what’s going to be used for his ‘talk-sprite’.
I drew a couple of pictures this morning. I also had a dream that may or may not advance Zela’s plot, though probably in book 3 or 4 because it was either about Marteth, the eldest of the missing boys, or Mathaning, the youngest.
Flentrop is Dutch. Walcker is South German, as opposed to von Beckerath who is North German. And Holtkamp is American.
Here is a concept sketch of a pegasus knight for my brother’s Fire Emblem game, and a mini sketch for a shaman dude. My brother doesn’t like him. I thought that there should some more non-nobles – they were all nobles so far, or dressed like them (peg knights always wear fairly fancy-looking armour, even if they’re mercenaries, and tall boots and miniskirts). So shaman-dude looks a bit scruffy. On purpose.
Here are the famed social knights. I think the guy on the left is in green, and the guy on the right is in red. I forget whether my brother is planning to follow Fire Emblem ‘tradition’ and make red-knight strong, or if he’s going to go with FE7 and make green-knight strong. All I know is that he doesn’t like how I did the green knight. He says the hair is not right.
Two hundred and fifty pictures! Goodness!
Lartan the stolid, scarred, and fairly boring looking general. If I ever get around to finishing enough of the sprites that my brother can actually write chapters, I’m not taking him. Lartan, I mean. I also drew him upside down on the paper. And I’m very bad at designing cool Fire Emblem armour.
