Visa business aside, I am trying to get back in the swing of character design, as I have all the ship's crew to get through before embarking upon drawing the book that takes place on the ship. I've done first mate Victor Campbell, whose post is going up on Patreon today; as I needed some cheering up I thought it was a good chance finally to treat myself to drawing Lillie, the crackpot marine biologist and caricaturist whose work has livened up the textual records for so long.
This morning I was up at the crack of dawn to do laundry and figured I'd get a start on researching his biography at least.
I am starting to think this was a flawed idea.
