Description First half of the cast of a comic and I are working on as sisters! Fun times. The cast goes as follows:

Aidan Dowell - A friendly guy who looks younger than he really is and would be offended if you told him he was cute as a button and looked fourteen. His heart is always in the right place, even if he spaces out and looks at something you directly told him not to. He doesn't mean ill by it, he just has an insatiable curiosity. He works as a contortionist in a circus. Please tell me I spelled that right.

Dominic Bennett - He comes off as edgy, grumpy and angry but has a small cheerfulness to him. He kind of views life as something you just have to plow through, and does his best to get through it day to day. He's torn between wishing he was incredibly practical, while he actually is incredibly paranoid. Unlike Aidan, he looks older than he really is, and it kills him every time he looks in the mirror. So don't mention it.

Wyatt Banatyne - A general asshole, Wyatt has a checks and balances system in place of a heart and a conscience. He'd willingly give up the life of one person if it will serve practical purposes, and rarely attaches himself to anyone or anything. He's incredibly egotistical, and abrasive, causing conflict and arguments to occur whenever he happens to be around.

Isham Keigwin - Nerdy and bookish, Isham is a scholar who holes himself up and studies instead of socializing. He can come off as somewhat awkward and distant, but generally, Isham is well-meaning, even if he is a bit absent-minded.

Aidan and Isham are 's, and Dom and Wyatt are mine. Woo!

Also, I really don't like these anymore, which is why I get to post them since they won't be used anywhere else. But hopefully you'll enjoy them somewhat. They weren't originally intended to be standing next to each other, so they look kind of weird when they do. Like, it looks like Wyatt is cursing Dom off, who looks like he's sharing a moment with Aidan. BUT HE'S NOT.

And that's all. you guys, and sorry for not posting lately. Been working on this comic and it's been taking all of my time! Holy crap. Look for it in the future. Like for reals folks.

Awww! Thank you!

He is scary. In that 'god you are such a jerk' sort of way. But I wouldn't want to meet him in a dark alley. <_<

Wow, they are all edgy and adorable, but the first one reminds me of Sonny from Dog Day Afternoon. Probably just the 70's-ish clothing and his hair. Those sideburns and the fluffyness are very Al Pacino. Except, ya know... red.

I was distracted by just being in awe at them

I love Dominic! I can tell he's probably gonna be my favorite! x3

Wyatt has a nice profile even if he is a jerk-face o.O

heyy. how come you're allowed to not like these but i can't think mia looks weird? attica! attica! they all look awesome. isham stands out to me and i think it's because of that bit of green in his hair, it works well w/ all the reds. also my hip hurts. i am apparently an old lady, which i feel means i can demand people bring me tea and yell at people to get off of my yard.
