It’s Horus and Hawkeye,
You better not gawk:
One has a falcon’s head,
the other – the eyes of a hawk.

…Yeah, still working on a theme song for their TV series. Haven’t decided yet if it’s going to be an old-school action show or a sitcom about two unlikely roommates.

G had so many good options: I always love drawing Gambit, GladOs is a fantastic character, a Ghandi-Goku face-off could be epic, and the combination of Gandalf, Glenda and Granny Weatherwax is the stuff great novels are made from. Or at least esoteric musicals.

But in the metaphoric auditions that went on in my mind as I scanned the characters list, these three came up with the most intriguing idea, and a strong, compelling performance to boot. Couldn’t say no.

After a long wait, finally featuring F!

Someone suggested I drew Fezzik, and the thought of Frodo trying to fight the Giant had a certain charm, but eventually the fluffy luck dragon won. Falcor is drawn part from memory and part from reference, after I tried drawing “a dragon that looks like a dog” and came up with some sort of Simba-Stitch hybrid, and decided to maybe check how he actually looks.

As usual, drawn on an iPad with the Procreate app and a Wacom stylus, with a subtle texture layer in Photoshop.

Do NOT. Touch. The hair.

There are some great characters in D: Denver the Last Dinosaur (which is apparently one of these), various doctors (that I only considered if they were actually called “Doctor” or if their real name began with D), Don Draper, Draco Malfoy, D’artagnan, Daredevil, Daniel Jackson, Darwin, Dorothy…and then I realized I could draw all of Neil Gaiman’s Sandman’s main characters. I’m not a huge fan of it however – angry comments after the beep please – and as cute as Gaiman’s Death is, there’s one I like much better.

And Dolf? Dolf is Justice.
