1. “I know who you are… I’ve heard of you. The Man in the White.” The Red head said. He grinned.

   Ormarr Asliefr turned and looked down Pirate’s Alley. “Hey?” There was some aggrevating twit yelling at him. This late at night? “Aw man. I just finished a wicked pub crawl thru the Quater. What the hell do you want?”

   “I’ve heard that your a pretty powerful mage.” The young red head said taunting.

   Ormarr shrugged but smirked, “I’m alright as things go. Why do you want to know?”

   “I’m pretty good myself. I heard that Mages that go after you tend to disappear.” He he took a step closer into the alley.

   “After a Fashion. Look boy.. turn around and scram. You don’t want to do this. One and only chance.” Ormarr stepped into the alley with a smirk on his face.

   “You’re right, it is the one and only chance… for me to make a name for myself. And once I take you down, everyone will know the name Rusty Eubanks.” the cocky boy let his hands fall to his side.

   “You’re funeral boy.” he let his hands slide into his pockets. He loved things like this. Felt like an old west draw, only with magic. “Don’t say I didn’t warn you.”

2. The two stared at each other preparing their spell. Odd that no one was ever around to see such exciting displays. Ormarr grinned at Rusty. It was just enough to set him off.

   “Draw!” Rusty said throwing his finger forward and casting a disintergrate ray at Ormarr.

   Ormarr easily side stepped the spell. “How boring.” He said as he clentched his fist, “and so uncreative.”

   A purple beam shot out from the gauntlet. Rusty tried a counter spell but it was far to strong and shatter his spell like a brittle cookie.

   “What the Hell!?!” He said as he tried to dodge but he got hit head on.

3. Rusty was surronded by white and purple. he could feel his body burning but heard Ormarr’s voice. “Your first mistake kid, was trying to kill me. If you know someone is a resource you find a way to turn them.”

   Rusty’s eyes were saw his bright red hair lengthen and fly past his eyes. The he felt his body starting to compress. His eyes burned as he felt his cheeks and jaw rearrange and his lips plumped out. “What…… what are you doing?”

   Ormarr laughed as Rusty’s voice become a sweet Alto. “Turning you into a resource.”

   Rusty felt his jeans rip as his hips and butt pushed outward and his legs became shaply beyond that which a man would have. “This… this is turning?”

   Ormarr tsked, “People assume when a mage disappears that I killed them. Don’t know where that business came from but it serves well to throw people off my game. each and every mage I’ve taken on is alive, well and healthy.”

   On that word Rust’s chest pushed out rapidly his thin shirt torn from the sudden pressure. “aaaahhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!”

4. It pain faded as the energy around him disappeared and the alley came into veiw. She could fell the emptiness in her pants and the heaviness of her chest. The cold air off the Mississippi brushed against her skin as Ormarr came into focus.. he was looking at her… no… her… Breasts!?! “What the!!!” She covered them with her hands but her new center of gravity and the suddeness of her movements caused her to the fall to the ground. “Ow!!”

   Ormarr laughed, “Well didn’t you turn out alright?”

   She looked down and examined her body. Large breasts, wide hips and tiny waist. “What did you do to me you bastard!?!” She screamed.

   Ormarr came closer, “Like i told you ever single Mage I’ve taken on is still living, healthy, happy, and well. I don’t like to waste power or talent. And you have both just not any focus. We’ll change that.”

   Rusty wanted to move but she couldn’t she was frozen in place look helpless as she felt as the man in a white suit and coat approached.

5. “Get… Get away from me.” Rusty said as Ormarr stopped in fron of her.

   “Don’t you worry none, you’re not going to care in a moment, But hopfully you’ve learned your lesson.” Ormarr said leaning down to look her in the eyes.

   She was terrified she tried in vien to make her limbs run, “W… what is that?”

   Ormarr snapped, “Don’t mess with the son of Loki.” He grinned evilly.

   Her full lips turned up into a smile as her clothes became a purple one peice showgirl outfit. Her eyes became blank. as Rusty’s mind vanished from this body. “Of course Master Ormarr.” He voice purred.

   “Come now Rosa. There’s so much to see in this dear city New Orleans and that slave collar will make sure you become exactly what I want you to be” He helped her up.

   “Of course master Ormarr.” She said as she took his arm and they began walked, her hips taking a sexy sway.

This was yet another concept that came to me thanks to a friend. Being an enormous geek of course I’m a fan of final fantasy (old school not so much since 6 though) and I remember the class system from tactic.. so what if I had an enchanted controller that I could switch the classes of people? Oh yes I would abuse that mightily.

Again.. love of red heads and short shirts and shorts….. and yes I know Gradient backgrounds. Life would be so much easier if things where like this.

This was born out of my need for strange tg’s or tg’s with Strange items. In this case a puck that went shot between the legs of an unsuspecting male it turns them into a curvey Hockey groupie or as I like to call them Puck Bunnies.

The Jersey-dress needs work but I liked the concept when suggested to me. And a decent effort on my part for the hands hockey stick and puck thou I only recently found out you could hold down shift in photoshop and it would automatically make your line straight. Yeah….. is there anything photoshop can’t do?

To say I do a lot at once is an understatement. As I tell people I’m happiest in chaos so it makes sense in addition to drawing I write with my friend Kat. This is one of her Original Characters Rua who is hanging out in a bar. I was suppose to make her kinda punk and petite…. Yeah.. didn’t work out on the petite but she told me it was okay because she was busty for a girl too…. whew.

Yes I know another Gradient background but their easy for me but at least i drew the bar ledge. This was I think born out of sketching profile for practice. I’m getting better.

And this was the second sequence. And as you can see, in the first one I was clean shaven and in this one I’m not. Also both of these were a part of my “If no one will Tg me I’ll just Tg myself” collection. Yeah that phase is still going on, but it’s mostly on the Rp side of things.

I think this one was better then the first in that the first was three pictures and this one was five.

This was one of two picture I did when I wanted to do an animated gif. Yeah it’s okay. I don’t know if the web is going to speed this up insanely, but I liked the way the last pictures ended up. And yes that’s suppose to be me.

This also brings up a curious thing Tara brought up to me about my Avatar, because this one and the next one differ on the facial hair. My beard grow in a week so very frequently I change up my look. Oh yes and girl me has a purple hair. Why? I like purple.. it’s kind of my thing.

And here we have the sequel to my infamous TG strip which I hate only slightly less then the first one. Which also has a joke in it that not a single person got past me and my roommate in it.

Again I hate speech bubbles, and I liked the way Marci came out in the last panel.

For those of you wondering the processing fastball joke is from an Intel Commercial back in the 90’s (it was for Pentium 2’s! How big of a geek am I to remember that?) Also I hate hands only slightly less then I hate hats….. Seriously.

And now we get to perhaps my best known work. It got me a listing on the links page on Tgcomics.com to my DA, it is solely the reason I broke 10,000 views, and dear god I hate this piece and the sequel to it.

The reason why as at the time I was flirting with doing a webcomic and decided to do a couple of test strips with a senerio I had role played years before just to see how long it would take me to do one. So when I was finished I decided to post them on Da because that’s what it’s for and I hoped to get critism to help me grow as an artist.

Now this strip took me all of 3 hours from sketch to shade and by no way is the best thing I’ve ever done but this quickly became and still is my most favorited piece on Da.

This strip also became the reason I DIDN’T do a webcomic before now. Because I got a slew of people who decided THEY knew how to write my character Ashley (who is one of my favorite characters of all time.) and because I hate speech bubbles.

With all that said this was the first time I tried a sequence and I can see where I’ve improved. Again my love for red heads show and Maci and her heart shaped lips (which I loved but many people hated.)

This was the first wallpaper I ever did for myself. Ah Xora…. Xora is the Female “Good” version of another character of mine by the name of Xero. Xero is… well he’s a Mary Sue character and he knows it which causes him to try not to be such a Mary Sue so in the end he comes off as a very indifferent kind of ass.

Anywho When I did this, I remember it wasn’t suppose to be anything but a girl in a school uniform punching at the air by thru just some weird lines I drew ended up with wings and subsequently ended up being Zora. The background I believe was because I was experimenting with the Gradient tool.

Ah this was a a futuristic type setting that never took off the idea was that three assassins sent after the son of a wealthy CEO for Succession Corp would all descend up their mark at the same time and then accidentally break a beaker full of nanites. The nanites would cover the three assassins and transform their bodies into three sexy shape and invade their brains to reprogram their thoughts to the wishes of the “master” or the CEO’s son.

These are, Sylvie, Anya, and Seiko. I think my shading job on this was very good though the proportions are off and this was early on in my experimenting with altering the shape of text since my hand writing sucks.

This was a visualization of a usually TG conversation between me and Sky, however this very situation never happened. This one I thought up around the time I created a trio of characters call the “Gunsmith Enchanters” who enchant bullets with various spells to put into specialized spell guns.

I thought that this would be a neat thing to do and I love the way it turned out. Her choker and dress espcially. The gun in my hand… not so much and purple collared shirt? I think not.

This was the result of another TG situation. The idea was that I being a manily type man who kicks ass and drinks beer would want to drink beer one night and be light on cash. So I would enlist my friend Sky blue and TG the both of us to take advantage of ladies night and/or to get guys to buy all my drinks. Yes I would TG myself and my friend for the prospect of free beers. I have no shame.

The C.I.A. T-shirt says if you can’t see it “Cleavage inspection Agency.” Thanks for the idea Robert Rodregize.

“Pistolero”

And this completely the trio. A.J. And Lucy traveled and worked with a guy named Kami who was a 20th century action film buff. Being half latin he took on the persona of El fro the Mariachi trilogy. The gun in this one is so so and I was attempting to make it like one of those Mexican propaganda posters. Very bright and kind of streamlined.

No this isn’t me (if only I had Kami’s hair) but rather one of a serious of “Alternate” Kami’s who are characters, this one referred to as “Bebop Kami” Long before I took the name Kamizite Mawaru he was a few characters and I liked the name so much I kept it for my own.

Another note you’ll see that this is the first guy I’ve drawn since Anette and anton. I’m much better at drawing females then male. Weird huh?

This one was the result of me wanting to TG Drakage again. This was the result of a enchanted cigarette. Drake being generally a bad boy kind of character thought nothing of smoking one of his cigarettes, and once he exhaled the smoke swirled around him and changed him into a scantly clad silver haired babe.

This is another glaring example of how much I hate hands. The world would be so much better if we didn’t have them, or if they were easier to draw. I think I was feeling very pink that day too.

This picture was the result of one of my TG fights with Duck. Thru a series of random changes he ended up a a corseted goth and i ened up as a sexy librian. I think this is also my first (and last) attempt at free hand pin stripes. Christ what was I thinking? I really like the cross thou.

As you can probably see I’m strategically hiding the legs up until this point… I wasn’t too good at them once upon a time.

I went thru (and to an extent am still going thru) a thing where people tend to ask me to TG them but I have trouble finding people to do the same to me (both in Rpin’ and drawing.) So I started to TG myself as kind of an act of frustration. So this is my Female alter ego Kamiara vacationing somewhere and senting a card. I like the way the glasses turned out and the pig tails. And leaning forward too… very technical for me.

Holy crap are those thighs I see? O must have been feeling very brave that day. Not a bad effort if I say so myself.

This was a picture for my friend Faia. This is Alexandra Josephine Waters her tough as nails bountry hunter from an old Cowboy Bebop game I played on Live journal and then we wrote some stories about later. A.J. When we played was in her late 20 so I decided to draw her younger at 17.

This was one of my more impressive efforts at drawing a gun (or part of one) and a decent job of drawing at an angle. I love the way she came out. One thing you’ll not is that I like to find backgrounds and blur them so I don’t have to draw them myself. yeeeahhh.

Ah my dear little cute psychopath Lucy St. John. This was an exercise in doing something profile and I have to say i liked it even thou it took me a week to get it right. The lyrics you see to the right is to a song of the same name. Fitting as Lucy is ultimately a tragic character who has been abused all her life to a point she snapped and went on a rampage. Later on she escapes and meets up with A.J. And falls for her.

The lines here are a little TOO perfect if you get my meaning. More work with the pen tool… it’s such a cheap way to ink but a bit time consuming.

So here is the very first picture I ever posted for the world to see. This one was two characters in a game/world I ran titled: “A club story”. Anton and Annette Kamat. This was the result of a bit of magic and presto chango insta-twins even if one is slightly girlified.

The background behind why this picture and these characters was because this was done when I was evacuated after Katrina. I was staying with a friend in Mobile and pretty much everyone else had come home at that point to their jobs, and I was stuck spending long nights just staring at the T.V., at work, or playing City of Heroes. So I drew this mostly because I missed my friends and I’m fond of these two characters.

This is also a notable picture because I believe this is the only picture I ever posted or showed anyone outside of my circle of friends that was not done on the Tablet that Time Forgot.

For that time it was pretty good for me.

So I went thru a phase of drawing my characters gender reversed. The problem was with that is I never drew those characters normally, so I don’t think anyone ever got it.

This one is Drakage Knight, one of my many (and I do mean many) backup NPC’s. Being a table top Role player for 16 years now I have built up an arsenal of regular background characters for when i need them. That in addition to my insane need for everything to somehow connect and… well it’s a trait of mine that drives my players and friends nuts.

This particular picture I believe Drakage was in a boarding school that was haunted by a ghost and was praying on various boys changing them to women. I believe the idea was that it was the ghost of a girl that went to a girl’s school across the street that died in there as a result of a prank. So she starts to take her vengeance out on slackers and class clowns.

This was also my first experimentation with the pen tool for inking and when I decided I like mesh and fishnets but hate drawing them.

Ah yes. This was a completely random drawing that I used later on for a TG I was running. Her named ended up being Samantha, but at the time she had the name “Volumed Pig Tails” thanks to my room mate. I guess this started my trend of Seriously big ponytails and pig tails.

One thing your going to learn about me is I have a thing for red heads and pig tails so this was the best of both worlds. I liked the green dress I should do another one like that, and yes… I know her arm just disappears behind her head. I think I got aggravated while drawing it and just stopped.

A Lucian/Lucia another character I TG’ed and never drew a “before” picture for everyone to see. Lucian is a general of the High Realms and one of the children of the two most noted Entities there Yuki Titanfeather and Jonah Knight

If I remember the story correctly, He was studying tactics in the library to better train the armies of Higher Realms where his siblings had laid a prank for him in one of the book. He opened it and Zap Lucian is Lucia. So so shading job on this one.

And this becomes the first reoccurring character. Samantha from a scene in the TG that I was running. Drakage had found a girl wandering around in front of his dorms shortly after his friend Sam went missing. So she tried thru her mental programming to tell Drakage who she was and he being a cleaver fellow figured it out and snuck her into the dorm for questioning.

Sam was a die hard video gamer and so the mushroom shirt just made sense. Again… seriously huge pig tails.

As things go this wasn’t a bad attempt for me to draw someone sitting down. I think this might have been the first one. It’s okay I think.
