My submission for Original Character Appreciation Month! This month you draw fanart of original characters designed by your fellow deviants, whether you admire them for their design, storyline or personality.

=Rikyo's SDL character Ruel. I absolutely love his design(and didn't do justice to here; this rendition is a bit simplified). And when Rikyo gets around to using him in a comic, I can tell that seeing him in action will be a blast. I know, I have no room to talk shit there :V

`Endling's character Lilith is from his original storyline Ree. Not only is the design appealing(and I love to draw asian characters with asian eyes instead of giant animes) but she's a necromancer/puppet master type who animates dolls, which is right up my alley. Sorry if this is an outdated look for her, I was using your old ref sheets rather than the LoT design.

*zimeta08's character Morgan Brown is the chairman of the Committee for Species Safety in the world she's created. She's really ambitious about it too--check her gallery for full-length comics featuring Morgan and her other characters. Morgan is sort of a villain in the sense that he captures alien lifeforms and forces them to conform to human behavior "for their own protection". Very cool character, and you don't usually see good OCs that don't have lots of gimmicks/powers, like all of mine and 99% of everyone else's characters.

Please spread the word about Original Character Appreciation Month in your journals and maybe draw something yourself!
