    Please excuse the pink edging - this is a new (and not very good...) scanner, and I'm still getting to grips with the settings.

    First drawing in a LONG time (like, a year, I think!), but my new roleplaying character - a Dark Heresy (game) Tech Priest (class) called Abscissa - was too much of a delicious design opportunity to pass by. Basically, Dark Heresy is a bit like Dune in setting, and Tech Priests are a slighty bonkers organisation who 'worship' machines, seeing metal as the 'the true flesh', hence all the cybernetic and mechanical enhancements. This is how I envision Abscissa after a few more levels - she's not quite just a brain in a jar surrounded by metal yet, but she's definitely well on her way to replacing that corruptible mortal flesh with something far more 'holy'... ;-)

    Thanks, Liss! It's just a sketch right now - I'm not entirely sure what I am going to do with her yet in terms of colouring, but she was a lot of fun to design. xx

    Your imagination is amazing and your drawings are superb.

    She's like the daughter of Seven Of Nine and Edward Scissorhands.

    What do you get if you cross Lara Croft with a Swiss army knife?

    Seriously, tho - awesome, dude! Cyberpunk and a half!

    Thanks, Geri, Wrath! I have developed quite a thing about cyberpunk designs over the last few years - I'm still learning how to successfully render mechanisms (much better at organic stuff, because I am a bit of a numpty when it comes to machines...), but they are still fun to play around with. There is something a bit Borg like about the Tech Priests - although I have to admit it was the potential for cable tentacles that really swayed me into playing one (ANY opportunity to have tentacles must be leapt upon with much gusto!). The only problem with playing around with character designs like this is that going back to designing 'normal' characters always seems a bit dull... XD
