Roaring Spirits - More spidercat sketch ideas

Won't lie, I really enjoy doodling this spider kitty. I've kinda just been exploring some more mannerisms with her during my work breaks-- I figure she's kinda roudy and gross, almost feral-like. Despite this, she's pretty playful and is amused by little trinkets and toys she can weave up to occupy herself. Drawings are a little bit rough, but I might decide to clean them up a bit later!

Roaring Spirits - Teaser Page Final

Okay here we go!

Here's the first look at the teaser page for the upcoming release of the Roaring Spirits comic that is out very soon! I'm so happy to finally get it out, because I'm looking forward to revealing more about this little universe as time goes on. This page serves as a sort of teaser as to what the Cattani Pizza gang is up to as Jackie is -- once again -- late for work.

Roaring Spirits - Arachnid Cat Girl Concept

Here's a finished character from a concept I started last year!

Despite her scary appearance, she's a laid-back, heavy-metal loving spider cat. She can often be found hanging out in her self-created silk fortresses, usually surfing the web and living off of snacks and junk food.

As for her combat abilities, she prefers to restrain and trap her opponents rather than direct fighting. ...

Roaring Spirits - New Years Teaser Page B/W

Happy New Year everyone!

Turns out, Roaring Spirits still isn't out yet, like I had hoped for in 2024....

Well then... much like Jackie, I too love to be fashionably late. So while I finish up the first few pages' for colors and final lettering, I made a small teaser page that I will share soon and then gear towards a launch some time this month! A little bit of context as to what t...

Roaring Spirits - Space Cat Concept

Here's a design concept for a space cat... but y'know, there's no way aliens really exist in this world. That would be kinda silly and unrealistic.

I will say though, cosplays have gotten really good in this world, you would almost mistake someone for the real deal! Beady eyes? Contact lenses! Antennas? Headband! Green fur? Body paint!

Debunked! And Would you really believe it if...

Roaring Spirits - Jackie and Stripes Illustration

Here's a drawing I did of this duo, who together appear in the first chapter of Roaring Spirits!

When Jackie first moves into Knoxford to attend college, she meets a young tiger boy who was given a camcorder from his parents, who she nicknames Stripes. Stripes helps film footage of Jackie's skateboard antics and other documentation of her antics.

One of Jackie's many endeavours is...

Roaring Spirits - Nyna Comic Design

Here's a bit of a upcoming redesign for Nyna! She's still the same old paper crafting spirit ninja girl, but with a design that fits the comic universe a bit more!

A little blurb about Nyna, she is Japanese American, and attends Knoxford University just like Jackie, as an art major! She comes from a ninja clan, south of Knoxford, known as the Knoxford Ghettos.

Nyna herself does no...

Roaring Spirits - Capoeira Serval Boy Concept

Early doodle idea for a male capoeirista, who is a melanistic serval! The idea is that both him and Kiera are both co-instructors at the local Knoxford dance center! Some days they trade off who the primary instructor is, either teaching capoeira self-defense, instructional dance, and even classes for children.

Of course, he too has to put up with Kiera's antics, and him being a bit of a...

Roaring Spirits - Jackie High Kick

Something that started off as a doodle, but I added to more over time... perhaps for a future chapter cover or something?

I dunno, but kicking poses are always pretty fun to draw :)

Roaring Spirits Promo Art WIP

A while back, I shared a sketch of what would have been the first chapter's cover art. After some feedback between some artist friends, I've decided to try a new approach!

A scene where Jackie has fought off some alley way thugs on her way to school. In her hand, she holds her Knoxford-Outtley acceptance letter, her ticket to her future.

I believe this one better reflects the kind...

Roaring Spirits - Cattani Pizza Crew Line-Up

Here's the official line-up for the Cattani Pizza crew! This three cat operation is one of many small business food joints in Knoxford, many which happily serve its good people! But on the flipside, organized gangs are a looming threat to supply chains and protection money. Luckily. this crew doesn't bend so easily.

From left to right, Uncle Cattani's the head honcho of Cattani's Pizza --...

Roaring Spirits General Cover/Poster Art WIP

Been a little bit since my last update! Due to shenanigans regarding Forsburn's trailer, Rivals of Aether 2's release date AND Light Box Expo happening within a short time frame, it was a LONG week! Oh and I also got sick. Icing on the cake.

Anyway, here's yet another preview for a Roaring Spirits related cover art! This one is more dynamic, and I think would serve as more of a splash ar...

Roaring Spirits - Prologue Drafts pgs 6-7 End

Drafts for the prologue end! These pages will be the first drop for the start of the webcomic, and will follow directly into the first chapter, hopefully updating on a regularly scheduled basis.

I've already started on cleaning up both the prologue and the first chapter, so I'm hoping to have it all ready to go in a bulk succession by the end of the month! I'm sorry it hasn't come out soo...

Roaring Spirits - King Serpopard Design Concept

In Roaring Spirits, felines all over the world idolize and look up to Luchador Federation wrestlers as both strong fighters and also huge celebrities due to their prowess. The story begins with the biggest luchador, Grand Lionman, taking on the venomous King Serpopard in a totally real wrestling match!

King Serpopard is exactly what he looks like -- he's a slithery snake-c...

Roaring Spirits - Prologue Drafts pgs 3-5

Next few pages of the opening to Roaring Spirits!

Wrestling action is tough! But I'm finding it very fun because the posing when it comes to two characters performing them is enjoyable to work out!

Mind you, its very important to Jackie that her hero, Grand Lionman, ALWAYS comes out on top!

Roaring Spirits - Opening Comic Drafts Page 1-2

Some preview pages of the first two pages of Roaring Spirits!

While I had been working on finalizing the remaining pages for the first chapter of RS, I intended for there to be an action/fight scene in the early pages. Since I've been working through my drafts, I've actually gone back and added a few pages to the very beginning as an opening exposition!

I'm expecting around ...

Roaring Spirits - Nirin Early Concepts

Look at that, -- another Roaring Spirits character concept coming at 'cha!

Here's some early design ideas for a gemini-like, feline fighter: Nirin. They are two cats who are in synchronization with one another -- sharing a single physical body, but with the ability to split apart when necessary.

Because they balance each other out, they much prefer to stay as one. More often than ...

Roaring Spirits - Lykoi Feline Fighter Concept

Here's an early concept for a Lykoi Feline Fighter!

This girl shares similar traits to that of an arachnid -- she can shoot and weave webs, she has multiple arms for climbing and multi-tasking, and she's a friend of spiders.

 She's nimble, prefers the darkness, and is an expert when it comes to trapping and constricting her foes. She also loves to snack on just about anything, ...

Roaring Spirits - Lucille Early Concept

Early concept design for Lucille -- a calico cat who enrolls in her first year as a freshman at KOU. Growing up, Lucille was considered a child prodigy and a savant'-- a gifted child, at the top of her classes during grade school, and accepted into one of the best schools in the nation. What she lacks in prowess, height, street smarts, and a back bone, she makes up in her intelligence and book ...

Roaring Spirits - Lion Boy Early Concept

Here's some early concepts on a character who may have some importance in the comic!

Not going too much into detail since I've got some moving parts that are subject to change, but I figured its a good idea to share designs and have you guys speculate what they could be later :D

Roaring Spirits - Jackie Street and School Fits Concept

Quick update once again! Hopefully my work stuff will be winding down very soon, but in the meantime here's a look at some experimentations I did with Jackie's designs for the comic.

Jackie's street design is pretty similar, but her leather jacket is now slightly longer than it was shorter. That's because it's not usually to her size and has sentimental value, so this reflects that bette...

Roaring Spirits - Blanchette Concept Art

Initial concepts for a cloth-themed Roaring Spirits fighter -- decided to name her Blanchette (Blanchett??) since it just seems.... fitting! It's a French sounding name, but I'm thinking of making her an English/British cat. :)

So, the idea was that I wanted to create a character themed around a sentient blanket -- this blanket can take on several forms, including that of a scarf, hood, ...

Roaring Spirits - Ch. 1 Cover Art WIP

Hi guys! Sorry for slow updates these last few weeks but I still want to update to not leave the patreon super empty -- currently on a tight schedule for Rivals 2 related work, so I have to shift priorities all of a sudden! I want to get back on track as soon as I'm in the clear!!

Anyways, here's a sneak peak of the cover art I'm working on for the first chapter of Roaring Spirits! I want...

Roaring Spirits Comic August Update + Page Draft

Little update on Roaring Spirits!

It's August and I'm still continuing to chip away at RS as I also have a tight deadline to meet for work reasons! That means I unfortunately couldn't make the July drop as I had hoped, but the silver lining is that I have fleshed out the beginning chapter a bit with more pages!

Sometime in early July, I actually decided to re-write some events and ...

Roaring Spirits Comic - Maybe Hardest Page I've Ever Drawn

Also known as partially the reason this comic is taking a while haha... , this was difficult and yet pretty fun page to tackle, and I think pretty necessary to get a little peak of the kind of city Jackie has moved out into for the very first time -- Knoxford!

I'm far from an environmental/bg artist but I think this comic will help me get out of that comfort zone, hopefully faster in the ...

Roaring Spirits - Stickers (Wave 1??)

I've been working on some potential sticker ideas for Roaring Spirits on the side while working on the comic! Some people have expressed wanting some sort of merch related to the RS characters, and I figured I can start simple with some chibi character stickers. :D

I'm not all too familiar with the process of selling and mailing stickers, so for now I'm going to use these stickers as a li...

Roaring Spirits Fluff - Lynx or Caracal

Having trouble differentiating between a Lynx or a Caracal? Refer to this handy chart! *Not tested for accuracy.

Had a silly idea for a shitpost since in the past, Jackie is sometimes mistaken for a Lynx cat and not a Caracal. It doesn't happen too often but I always find it kind of funny since besides the ear tufts (and her cheek fur?) she doesn't share alot of traits with them.

A...

Roaring Spirits - Gran Lionman and El Oskuro

Two of the greatest luchadores that the nation has come to know, G. Lionman and G. Nocturno were once an iconic duo that turned from humble beginnings to a worldwide phenomenon for millions of wrestling viewers' households. Their opposite personalities , wrestling styles, and public relations somehow made for a respective tag team. -- their performances and dynamic were unmatched.

Howeve...

Roaring Spirits - Pages 15-17 Sketch Drafts

Some new teaser panels for you guys!

Unfortunately, I missed the mark on the hopeful June release date. Had some set backs both IRL and with work stuff that was due at the end of the month, so the first half of chapter 1 being out was far-fetched from what I anticipated early last month.

BUUUT there's only a few pages left before the first half will be considered completed! ...

Felicia Darkstalkers Art HQ + Sketches

Edit: I included a Player 2 alt version as well. Hope you guys like it!!

The Marvel vs Capcom collection announcement last week gave me a sudden desire to draw something (sorta) related to it -- so in-between comic pages, I said hey, lets take a break from drawing a cat girl to draw a DIFFERENT cat girl.

Now that I think of it, this might be the first sort of 'humanoid' character I'...
