Othninto
One of my first projects that isn't just a one-off short story. It's still my 'baby' that I'm most attached to. I started designing the characters and stories when I was still in school.Zhenhui and Liyan are friends with a shared childhood love for fantasy books. As children, Liyan preferred fairytales with happily-ever-afters, while Zhenhui leant towards urban legends and the paranormal. They live in a world where the supernatural exists but is still hidden, where humans still try toIn recent years, a new urban legend has sprouted, of an enigmatic sorcerer called Othninto. Humans treat him as a figure that eradicates evil and demons
Character Concepts
Biyou (碧悠), a.k.a. Miss Ink was a character I designed back in 2014. She's a mermaid-like character except instead of a fish tail, she has an ink brush for a tail. Her Chinese name is a play on the characters 笔 (bi: pen/brush) and 游 (you: swim/play)
Quick character concepts without roles in my story projects.From left to right:
◇ Their dream was to be a warrior superhero, but the powers-that-be bestowed them ✰magical girl powers✰ instead. Making the best of their situation, they unravelled the big front bow of their assigned outfit to wear as a scarf like their favourite superhero. Refusing to use magical girl powers, they use their wand as a versatile melee weapon instead.
◇ Art Union challenge to design a fairy based on personalised themes (evil, butterfly wings, sword-wielding, mushroom outfit). I created an evil cannibal mushroom fairy that eats all kinds of shrooms, with wings based on Greta oto (glasswing butterfly) wings folded into a cape. She wields a sword to cut down other mushrooms.
Misc. Concepts
Magical wand that's bling on one side and skeleton on the other side.
