Description

To welcome the new year, I decided to draw updated portraits of my characters as I currently have them developed!

In Marine’s case, I’ve been slowly fleshing out her character and role in the story I have planned for her, and, while I’m still not 100% finished with it, it’s solid and satisfying enough for me to finally settle down on it.

So yeah, Marine: Hispanic, 32 years old (in this portrait), a former Navy officer who left after being involved in a tragic event. She’s become somewhat hardened as a result, and while she’s an excellent leader and diplomat, she has trouble putting her trust in others. However, under her stoic exterior lies a caring, empathetic individual who has set up a protective barrier around herself due to the effects of past events in her life. 

She lives off of the earnings from her pawn shop, as well as her job as a cargo lifter for ships. Her major hobby is treasure hunting/tomb raiding, and is one of the few things she genuinely enjoys and gives her a sense of fulfillment. She stays fit for these sort of adventures by hiring Shelby as a fitness coach. Over time the two become the best of friends, experiencing many different adventures and hardships together. But that’s a story for another time~

Sexuality: Asexual. Has no interest in seeking sexual pleasure or establishing romantic relationships. However, she can become exceptionally close to people given time and effort (as is the case with Shelby).

(more art of her coming soon maybe I hope)

Awesome revamp David! I love the tough and muscular and yet secretly caring characters like her

So is Casey still her sister? Has she gone through some rewrites too story-wise like Marine?

I'm debating whether I should keep Casey in the narrative or discard her completely, as I can easily see myself replacing her with Shelby (minus the sisters thing) and still making it work. I'm leaning more towards keeping her, but reusing her for a completely different role.
