    1. Okay, not sure what this one was going to be. It's in with my Parodyverse stuff, so obviously at some point it was PV related. I think maybe it was going to be Muffy Framlicker in space? Yes, let's say that.


I'd say so too, since Yuki isn't quite that tall.

    2. Odoona, Vizh's right hand on Caph.


Also right hand on the doorway.

    3. "Mr. Excitement". I think I envisioned him as an adversary to CSFB and the Juniors. The general idea was an adrenaline junky who, after running with the bulls or something, found that he could feed off the adrenaline surges of others. So naturally he likes to cause mass hysteria and panic in crowds, making him super-tough.


He looks a bit like Casey Jones from Teenage Mutant Ninja turtles. Interesting concept, can't wait to see him in use somewhere.

    4. A little sketch of Vizh's lighthouse.


It's bigger than I thought it would be.



    Quote:
    5. "Liberty Valance", Mary Pranster's arch-nemesis.


I didn't know she had one.



    Quote:
    6. A further along portrait of Odoona.


This one says a lot more about her, if you remember that Caphans would dress in shiny objects like that to show their status in society. Perhaps Odoona is showing off her new status in her new society.



    Quote:
    7. A doodle of a scene I was planning in the "Ambassador Vizh" storyline, where the Emir seats Vizh with some of the stranger dignitaries since he's not all that fazed by genderless blobs of protoplasm after Yo and the Shaggoth. His fellow ambassador there could squeeze "her"self into vaguely humanoid shape but needed a holographic screen to approximate facial expressions.


Is that the same one where in one of my stories he ended up jailed for insulting someone and Mumph had to go and fetch him?

    8. Midori, Akiko Masamune's #1 asset.


Shouldn't she be dressed in a green suit? Or at least a green shirt?

Funny thing about Midori, I didn't know of her existence when I formed the whole close friendship between the Psychic Samurai and Akiko Masamune. Once I found out, I had to wonder if Midori was a little jealous of that close friendship. But then again maybe not, because the circumstances that formed it was never an opportunity open to Midori.

A little trivia I figured out a little while ago but never quite squeezed into a story:

It's pretty obvious that Akiko uses Chiaki whenever she can as a cover for legitimacy. Chiaki allows it as long as no one's getting hurt, because she feels that if she didn't allow it, Akiko really *would* be hurting someone else who has less self esteem and strength.

And guess who is close enough to use and hurt pretty frequently? So in a way, Chiaki may well have been protecting Midori all these years by sticking around and maintaining contact.

Interesting twist, eh?

    9. C'mon. It's not like he hasn't had it coming for a while now...


Is that what you meant by "final art"?
