Description Last character on the list is the mischievous lunkhead, Gus Goblinson.

As you may have already deduced, he's a goblin, and as such is instinctively troublesome, always trying to stir up mischief and mayhem around town through practical jokes. He wears a long stupid grin whenever he conjures up juicy ideas, although most of his schemes are mild and way out of left field (stealing pennies from the wishing well, turning store signs upside down, panty raids ), so there really is no danger in what he does. It's just annoying as heck. Casey is constantly getting reports about a "big green guy" stirring up trouble in different parts of town. She knows him quite well by now and actually feels pity for his stupidity and naivete at times. She even gives him tips on how to be a better practical joker, just so she can have a valid reason to knock his lights out! But her advise never seems to go through to his big head, so he's the same clueless meathead every time they meet.

Personality-wise, he's all bark and no bite. He walks with a sailor's stride and with his shoulders up and arms flexed to look big and intimidating, but in reality he's quite cowardly and naive about plenty of things. He gets easily ticked when someone offends him for being a big baby, but never has the guts to do anything about it. He tends to skulk away steaming, blurting out stuff like "who does that wise guy think he is?", and "if I had my way with him I'd...". But after a minute or two of simmering in his own juices, he just goes back to doing what he does best (or worst).

I honestly love drawing this guy, it's a nice break from all the dames and kids I've been dishing out recently.

This is the last character I'm gonna reveal for CC. I've got plenty of other characters thought up, but I'm saving them for the comic. Hopefully I can get this thing started soon!

Tell me what you guys think!

it's really on the spot, congrats  

and i like a lot how it reminds me the face and expressivity (i guess it's the chin and the sideburns) reminds me a lot Zenigata from LupinIII ^^

This is cool I like the style , how expressive the anatomy is and the face expressions on the side are perfect for the character.

I really like this design. He's got the neanderthal brow, goblin ears, and a big sausage nose. He just screams lunkhead. The costume is cool, too. He looks like he'd be a pirate/sailor, but he'd be at the bottom of the chain of command, mopping decks or something. I really like the third expression (the grin), it has that "scheming moron" look. Great job!

Thanks! I'm actually pretty satisfied with how this character came out.

I got there a little late, so I'm not sure who chose it.

It works like this; Whoever wins the draw gets to choose a character (not their own), and everyone in the event is given an hour or so to draw it.

(I'm usually working when it happens, so this was my very first time participating!)

I like this design a lot~ He just looks like a brute!

Plus just look at that inking and floor

I think I remember him from a comic you did?

RedBlooper In reply to Cosmic-doodle [2012-07-02 22:50:07 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, I brought him back from some comics I did a while back. His design has changed a little since then.

I would alter the shape of his head a little. You got a brow lump, a cheek bone lump, a lump I can't define, and a very wide...but chin?

RedBlooper In reply to FrostDrive [2012-07-02 22:57:25 +0000 UTC]

I appreciate the suggestion, but I'm not sure he would look well with a smoother face. I tried to do that, and it didn't come out right. It didn't give the character that 'tough guy' appearance I was looking for. I feel the chunkiness of his face complements the rest of his body, which is made up of lumps as well.

Did you try edges instead of curves? That's usually what the rules are for tough guys.

RedBlooper In reply to FrostDrive [2012-07-02 23:30:10 +0000 UTC]

I did, but the edges clashed with the rest of the body. It looked like he put on another character's head!

For a moment, I thought this was lupin as a goblin. But I forgot about this guy! I hope we see more of him in the next comic. Or at least a cameo of sorts.

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

RedBlooper In reply to CLXcool [2012-07-02 16:39:07 +0000 UTC]

he'll pop up here and there, but he'll be mainly a side character in the series. I may make a story or two with him as the main character, though. Who knows?

Good eye on catching some of his "Lupin" resemblance. I will admit to having been inspired by the character designs in that anime when slightly redesigning this character (I purposely swiped Inspector Zenigata's sideburns for this guy XD).

Can't wait to see what you're gonna make him do on your future strips, I liked the fact Casey actually tried helping him become a better thief, it fitted much better than the overused "stop what you're doing evil do-er" scenario.
