Captain Ironstorm Irelia
Captain Irelia is a sky pirate captain in charge of a motley crew aboard her air ship. She is a main original character from my personal IP that I have redesigned many times over the years. This is the latest version of her. Here is some process with past versions of her.
Intel Whiz
A character from my IP. An oddball of a harmless hermit aboard the air ship. Interact with him on comms for info. He is knowledgeable on all sorts of subject matter, being a glutton for knowledge. Getting a hold of him is a whole other thing, one can find him easily distracted watching holo-girls & smoking up some other-worldly ganja when he should be researching & creating info packets for the crew.
Botanist
A cutie plant whispering Grandmother aboard the main crew's air ship. Her character designs are heavily influenced & inspired by both of my Grandmas, and other lovely elderly folk I sprinkled in traits from endless inspiration all around. I grew up surrounded by lovely gardening & farm work, fresh produce, self sustainment, nature, & being fussed over by my small hometown's elderly, etc. This character is my homage to that upbringing & my forever love for genres or aesthetics of Solarpunk, Ecopunk, Cottagecore, Mori-Kei, Ghibli. I was aiming to be a Solarpunk/ Ecopunk Artist in college, I've not forgotten that younger hopeful version of myself, honouring that with my Botanist painting.
Chef
Heart of Gold gentle soul aboard the air ship. He can be a bit clumsy & easily confused, which is where his little mech tinker spider friends come in handy, as they skitter rapidly around assisting & save the Kooq many times from near disaster. Things he may need often dangle from his hat to help with his forgetfulness. Captain Irelia picked him up from a very busy popular posh restaurant in capital city, that was laid to ruin by his hands..... He is given another chance with this motley crew, and able to learn and grow at his own pace. Irelia even awards him her own makeshift version of a Michelin Star and dubs him head Chef! He pins it very proudly to his shirt, works hard to keep the ship family fed/happy & is immensely loved back.
First Matey, Shadow Sister Natahla
Natahla is a stoic wraith assassin femme fatale and 1st Matey to Captain Irelia's crew. In battle, specializes with summoning shadow cover for confusion & dagger attacks, followed by claw strikes. Outside of battle she is quiet, to herself, always watching til things get out of hand/ keeper of the peace on this chaotic air ship packed with interesting characters. Not afraid to get her hands dirty and can act swiftly on hard decisions. Served in the military with Irelia and wholeheartedly has captain's trust.
Captain Vehrasi the Vicious & First Matey
This is Captain Vehrasi the Vicious! Nemesis to Captain Irelia. An absolute pirate demon of the ozone seas. Dual sword wielding psycho with reinforced steel leg braced body cage. Has massive beef with Irelia & Natahla. The 3 of them go way back. They were former military for the empire. All-consuming character that puts 200% in everything she does. Hates being anything less than her former comrades. She is a constant presence chasing the crew and will absolutely lacerate the flesh & meat off your bones if she finds your crew and enjoy every bit of it.
Smokeshow Silas is 1st Matey on Captain Vehrasi's ship. Skilled crook in business, law & accounting. The brains behind the crew's operations. Hooked up in the network of the underworld and black market dealings. His body mods have smoke screen capabilities.
Horror Designs
This is my Horror related art. A mix of professional and personal work. I draw from many dark influences, most notably and my faves inspired from The Thing, Resident Evil, Bloodborne, Guillermo Del Toro's movies, Japanese Horror, Claymore (the manga), Underworld, Matrix, Hellraiser, Event Horizon, Cyberpunk genre, Dark Fantasy genre, Monster Special FX make-up, Butoh Dance, Alexander McQueen, Thierry Mugler, Adrian Smith, Kris Kuksi, Zdzislaw Beksinski, H.R Giger & a lot of rock, metal, & dark bass heavy EDM music.
An Utapaun duo! They are the aristocratic species Pau'an from the planet Utapau in the Star Wars Universe. Huge fan of Humanoids/ Aliens/ Monsters & Prosthetics/ Special FX, Costume & Styling. I often find myself looking at content revolved around that. So I did a study of Bruce Spencer as Tion Medon, that I found in this costume book I have called "Dressing a Galaxy: The Costumes of Star Wars". Then decided to design what I thought a fancy female counterpart would look like for the aristocratic species of Pau'ans of the planet Utapau.
Darth Talon the vicious, swift, acrobatic, torturing, baddie assassin, femme fatale, dark Sith Lord! Each tattoo serves as a claim to victory, showing her incredible strength among Sith and Jedi ranks alike! I've always been fascinated by this character. Most likely will draw her again in the future. There are so many strong females in the Star Wars universe I want to pay hommage to. I especially love my alien goirlz
Homage to some of my most favourite aspect of the Star Wars verse. Dathomir & it's inhabitants! A spooky part of Star Wars & I am here for it! First black & white scene is stumbling upon Asajj Ventress with other Nightsisters' mid ritual with Mother Talzin in the back performing a ceremony of dark magic on Savage Opress.
Next Scene of the elder Old Daka, oldest and wisest of the Nightsister clan, using an ancient incantation to summon the dead from the Nightsisters' graveyard, since they were outnumbered by General Grievous' droid forces of a devastating attack launched from the Separatists. Thus bolstering their number with Nightsister zombie hordes.

Sketchbook: IP Project Odyssey
My personal IP is a sky-pirate airborne wacky, whimsy, radtastical, & at times freaky adventure! This is some excerpts of my digital sketchbook featuring the despicable to loveable folks that populate these sky islands & of the world's surface, deeper below and everything in between!
Welcome to my digital Sketchbook: Pinup edition. I'm just having fun and playing, made quick sketches of some of the lovely and lethal ladies from my personal IP. My OC's are enjoying their down-time from their respective crews just chilling in their intimates on their airships or home bases on their respective sky lands. Some are much more in pin-up poses than others. I posed them as how it would suit their character some are more confident like that, others wouldn't care as much to pose. This is a series of how they would be unwinding back in their quarters or private getaway space, after a day of work & adventures with their crew.
