Description
The faces of the three main characters in an original manga storyline I've had in the works for quite awhile. It's called 'Were' (as in 'werewolf', not 'were you there?' ^~; ) and is about were-creatures of various kinds.From left to right in this picture:
Kyren - Weredragon. He's the Japanese type, a black one with white mane and tail-tuft. A pic of him in were form can be seen here: [link] ; I didn't mention that he's a were in the description because I wasn't sure I wanted it to be a surprise or not.
Haley - Human; she's a nursing student and enjoys track running as a hobby. Too soft-hearted for her own good, and ends up helping Kyren out when he's hurt....that's how they meet. (I don't have any other pics of her uploaded, I don't think...this is one of the first well-drawn pics of her I've done.
Dreyfus (Drey) - Wereleopard. Snow leopard, to be precise. Drey is passive-aggressive....he acts very calm and pleasant even while he's hurting you.
Anyway, that's the main characters of 'Were'...please, no ripping off their storyline (although this is only a tiny bit of what I've written.
Drawn with a 0.5mm mechanical pencil...in a more realistic style than I usually draw, but in a good way.

Did you think up the name "Dreyfus" for him on your own? 8D That's one awesome coincidence!

Whoa--after glancing through your page, I see what you mean by coincidences! XD; Trust me, I'd never heard of your character Dreyfus when I decided to call my little wereleopard guy here Dreyfus. I believe my reasoning for calling him that was "LOL, this name sounds so cheesy for a modern-day guy to have that it's cute."
It just popped to mind.
My laptop is also named Dreyfus, after my character of that name, though...LOL!

Well then your's is probably more original than mine. My character Dreyfus was named after the guy from The Pink Panther Strikes Again, Former Chief Inspector Charles Dreyfus, 'cuz he was my favorite character. XD
BEST. COINCIDENCE. EVER. Here I was thinking nobody else used it for a first name.

LOL I didn't even know there was a character in The Pink Panther named Dreyfus, either. I thought it might be a first name, but in some older historical period, not modern-day.

Yeah, that's what really got me when I visited your page--wow, not only are they both young guys named Dreyfus, they're both shapeshifters too! Oh, well--the name Dreyfus is just that much cooler knowing this.

I really like Haley; she looks like she might not be the "typical manga heroine"--- she's no were, which just makes me like her more.
I hope to read this manga of yours one day!

I hope to create this manga of mine one day--and a day soon, not a 'someday'! I will work on it over the summer, I think. Well, and any time I have free time during the last of this college quarter...
I'm glad that Haley is likeable. She's got endearing quirks....her biggest one is that she has a very active imagination, and when she doesn't know the answer to a question her mind tends to make it up. Example: Drey says Kyren's his brother but Kyren doesn't acknowledge it. Haley's active imagination concocts this out-there story that Kyren and Drey are fraternal twins and that Kyren has amnesia.
Of course that's a scene I wrote for character development, so I'm not even sure it'll be in the finished story, but it's an example. When she first meets Kyren he won't tell her how he was injured, so she keeps imagining horrible and weird reasons that he could be hurt, too.

Thanks! The idea was like different pictures fading into each other...but in sketch lines.
I left Haley's skin withhout any overlap in it, though, to make her the focal point.
