Description Here's one of the pictures that I DIDN'T include the sketch of in the recent compilation. I really can't do very well with drawing Wires's body type, but this seems to be my closest attempt yet.

I've had him since about 2003, in a story with "modern knights" (think souped-up motorcycles referred to as steeds) where he was the talented mechanic, but found a new home in "Not Quite Marketable" alongside Alix, Reggie, and Bryn. While he's not one of the core three protagonists, he's a supporting one--as he once upon a time said, "Every 'knight' needs a good 'squire'."

It's just a quick color job, but I think it suffices to give an idea of him.


Wires (Josef McKaffry), Not Quite Marketable, and the associated characters and things are my property.

Thank you. Yeah, that's a typo-ed sheet. I better upload an updated one, huh? I've just been meaning to update or redo a lot of them--and finally get Alix's up--for a while now.

I think ya made the pocket on his shirt way too small. Unless, of course, it's not a pocket. XD

lol It does look too small, huh? However, some pockets on some dress shirts are more for decoration than anything. Heck, I've got a polo with a pocket on it that's about the size of a dollar bill folded in thirds. Not very useful. Plus, sometimes, it's a generic pocket size slapped on all of the shirt sizes...and Wires is kinda a larger guy, so it's going to look even more off.

Ah. See, I like pockets so I would never buy a shirt with a useless pocket. XD

You use the shirt breast pockets, too?

If I can, sure. Sometimes I'll carry a cloth for my glasses when I remember.

XD They don't make very many of such shirts for females, it seems. Most dress shirts have pockets just for show or none at all. :/

Yeah, it's kinda lame. :< When I was younger, I had some long-sleeved shirts with a breast pocket, and I carried a bargeload of pencils and pens in it...I think I was told off for looking like such a dork. XD

Well... that is a bit of a nerdy look.

I keep my pens in my pocket.

And I'm not a nerd? XP

On the topic of writing utensils, I try to be a bit more careful about carrying mechanical pencils every since I accidentally jabbed myself with one while walking to class back in highschool. The piece of graphite is still in the heel of my palm to this day.
