Dogs Of War - the graphic novel

I've decided to work on a graphic novel, based on my dog characters and the cartoon series I wish to make out of them. I still want the cartoon made, but for now a graphic novel might be an easier way to create awareness of my ideas (which ultimately is what I want). Here are the roughs of a couple of pages from the first issue (or 'episode' as I'll probably call them).
Sorry if you can't read the text but to give you an idea on what is happening here, Stylene (the girl) is telling her dad that she wants to fight the enemy of the story. Her dad then eagerly begins to get her organised

Valentine's Day

What with Valentine's Day not far off, I was inspired to do a Val Day themed pic involving my characters. I might try and do something for every significant event of the year. I've got my sights set on St Patrick's Day now...

Myst

I like Myst (full name Myst Sheppard). She's a mix of personalities that really shouldn't go together. She's a passionate environmentalist and likes all that 'new age' stuff, but she is also pro-war. She believes that just about all environmental problems is a result of over-population and a war would be a decisive means of thinning out numbers. This might make her look nuts but she means well.

Josh

Josh Cyril, the obligatory big strong idiot character. That's not to say he's stupid mind you, but he is rather immature. However due to his strength he handles heavy weapons better than the other (good guy) characters, making him a highly valuable - if somewhat irritating at times - member of the team.

Break's over, back to the war!

Ok, I've had a nice Christmas break, time to get back to blogging. Anyway, this character is Peter Edgewood. I wouldn't say he's my favourite but I have expressed a lot of favouritism towards his role in my proposed cartoon series. Yes, I've named him after myself. I don't know why I did that. Ego, perhaps. Oh, and I also have the same jacket as he does.

Sledge


Here's another character. You can disregard the angry expression - he's one of the good guys. This is Sledge (I haven't yet come up with a surname - perhaps someone out there has a suggestion?)

Right! Time to get this blog on the road! A lot of the stuff I'll be putting up will be related to an animated TV series I'd like to make. The character here is Stylene Arkon, leader of the... actually no, I won't state the name of her team. I fear the name could be too silly sounding, so I'll hold back for the time being.
