Description
I had this lineart floating around for a little while. I decided I needed the practice, so I went ahead and slapped some colours on it. It's an exorcist, New Zealand style! This was back in the Edwardian Age, when Junior Exorcists had to lug around huge coffin telephones when they wanted to call in to base and report their paranormal findings. Anyway, she looks like she's up to the task! I hope the ghosts don't give her any trouble...G Pen, Adobe Photoshop CS3, Corel Painter X.
EDIT: DeviantART is squashing it! So click Full View for a better look!

I think the literal translation is something along the lines of 'be well'? So that would be a greeting methinks.

This was during the 1900s? But it looks so modern!
Anyway, love the headphones!
(I'm having a vision that you're going to reply this comment with a "thanks"...)

I know, I added too many modern elements. Still redesigning the outfit. And....
Thanks!

Awesome idea with the telephone! Would she have to find somewhere to plug it in?

That looks great! Do you know about the Camera Obscura from Fatal Frame? It captures ghosts!

I have had a look at that game. I like spirit photography, so it really interested me...but that stupid broken-neck woman kept killing me, arrrgh, WHYYYY!!!

I'm sure you've gotten this question a million times already, but is there any possibility that you will eventually turn Ghost Gears into a manga? It looks really interesting and the protoganist looks super-cute! I read the whole Hollow Fields series and would definitely read Ghost Gears if it ever became a manga!

Not sure about a manga, we'll see. It's a personal project. In the mean time I need to focus on things that make money so I don't have to live in a cardboard box...heh...thanks for the interest.

GIMP? I'm so behind with these things, I haven't heard of it. The shading for the skin in this pic was done in Painter, so it's quite different from Photoshop.

is it a free system or do you have to buy it?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yep, Photoshop is expensive. However, you could always have a look at Open Canvas. I believe the basic version is free...?

i ment the other system

...whenever I think of New Zealand accents, "Beached as, brew" always pops into my head xD
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Brew being bro?
My parents came from NZ, but they lost the accent, so I'm not up to speed on it. XD
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah xD It's hard to type out exaggerated accents @_@
I have a friend from NZ, but he doesn't have any accent. It's all stereotypes, just like aussie accents xD
But fun nonetheless

Thats very good Madeleine! [holy crud, why am I predicting that someday that Ghost Gears and Hollow Fields will be crossovered into one special comic?]
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
They don't exist in the same universe! In any case, GG is very unfinished and just in the initial stages, while HF is finished and much easier to work with.

That is....err.....when Ghost Gears is finished, yes?

It's looking like it will be a billion years in the future. Maybe I need a time machine to travel there and get the finished script. XD

WOW, So beautiful, I love the story behind it as well<3 The outfit, of course, also kicks arse. This is so great. Is she the main character in your new story?
heheh, I was just listening to an interview of yours on some kind of podcast or something.<3
Anyway, I really really love this<3 and GREAT WORK ON HOLLOW FIELDS 3 BY THE WAY. : D IT WAS AMAZING.
Okay. I am finished harassing you for now.

Thanks a lot, glad you liked the manga.
I don't know what's happening with the story, but hopefully something will come of it!

Me thinks your inspiration came from the anime/manga "Chrono Crusade".

I do like CC, but this is a little different.
What I mean is, I like the CC MANGA. The anime was yecch...
