An ancient Greek Pottery coloring-style test with some of my late bronze age characters.

This was a quick test for a potential webtoon or tapas format for my Maite project. I don't yet have a computer fit for art, but I downloaded FireAlpaca to the laptop I am borrowing. The "linework" was sketched on plain paper.

I am going back and forth on using some of the raunchier dialogue I've written for the project (If I make it at all). The setting I have in mind, inspired by the Mediterranean during the late Bronze Age is a bit darker than some of the materials I've previously written.

Within the story, Maite is a fugitive traveling alongside a phoenician-greek noble: Lykao. To protect her identity, Maite usually dresses as a man who most people assume was castrated. Her and Lykao's odd buisiness partnership often draws inquiry wherever they travel.

I'm also debating over modifying Lykao's name to be more hellenized, phoenician, or allude to his sub-saharan african ancestry. All of this is to say that that his name may change by the time I come closer to deciding whether or not I will pursue this project.

Another style test for the Maite project. The protagonists are struggling with taking down a monster.

I'm trying to lean closer to a style that looks unique to this project, and may be faster to draw.

Style test with Maite. She wouldn't typically wear a tunic this light, but I wanted to draw something where most of her scars were visible.

I’d like to imagine that Maite sometimes accidentally breaks the leather straps that hold her prosthetic in place by kicking with her titan strength, and a search needs to start for where ever the hell it landed.

It’s not a group project, but she likes to be included.

A bit of my Bronze Age OCs Maite and Lykao's dynamic early in their story.

Most gorgeous big brown eyes vs staring into your soul meme with Lykao and Maite.

Maite's eyes are golden/yellow and would probably look pretty jarring to the average mortal person who sees her.

A little test piece exhibiting Maite and Lykao’s amazing chemistry when they meet back up as adults. Best friends 4 ever.
