Happy Stampede Wednesday everyone! It’s always exciting and scary drawing a brand new character for the first time. While I made sure to design Dallas McKnight before I started work on Mission 006, it is very different drawing a character concept and drawing them in action. Sometimes it can be hard to see how some pieces will move until you have them in a pose you hadn’t thought of before. Luckily, Dallas has been a blast to draw for the most part. He has a lot of gear on him and a lot of equipment which can make it hard when you have to squeeze it all in on smaller panels. I wanted Dallas to look like he could survive on the moon with little help so I designed him to look like a hunter/scavenger who can take on anything to survive.
Check back on Friday to see the pencils of Dallas McKnight’s debut!
