Includes a number of prompts from the Inktober daily art challenge. Admittedly, most took longer than a day…

Yana turnaround

Face design has gone through a lot of updates over the years. Still consider it WIP.

Repairs

Look, I'm gonna be fixing and redrawing Z in this one til the day I die... but I might as well upload it in the interim.

Concept 1

Possible cover page.

Inktober - "Trigger"

Prompt #3, "Trigger". One of my favorites to come out of Inktober - really loved playing with the lighting and style on this one.

Z Turnaround

Face design has gone through a lot of updates over the years.

Inktober - "Climb"

Prompt #27, "Climb".

Inktober - "Indulgence"

Prompt #7, "Indulgence".

Glow

Still one of my favorites despite its age (more than 5 years ago!)

Inktober - "Mysterious"

Prompt #15.

Designs

Wardrobe design sketches for Z, Yana, Dr Jun, and Capt Chandris - slightly out of date

SPOILERS - Inktober

Prompt #12, "Overcome".
I figure if you're on this site, you already know enough about the story that spoilers don't matter.

Other

Sketches, doodles, and older work. Separate from the main gallery for quality reasons, and because details in face and build have changed quite a bit over the years. Uploaded for posterity and for the curious.

…And because I’ve drawn a *lot* of Z cheesecake over the years. I have my priorities.

Inktober - "Morning Routine"

Any Service

Gag followup to an early comic page wherein Z mentions that a Knight provides "any service required".

Strands

I must have had *really* good reference for this one. It's so old (2013) that the heat diffusion lines weren't even part of Z's design yet. Will add them and move to Featured later, since the art somehow still holds up.

Usurper

Kitty

Bad day

Errors

Fun with Expressions

Obviously older doodle, but the gag is still relevant: Z is, uhh, very *subtle* with outward facial expressions.

Inktober - "Good Grief"

Prompt #23, featuring Doctor Jun. As in, "Good grief, we'll need a lot of duct tape for this one."
