Stranger Scribbles #7 Meet Richard Thornsberry

3.RICHARDTHORNSBERRYMastermindsmall

Dear Scribblers! As we have been put on hiatus for the last couple of weeks thanks to the roguish “elves” running around Comic Con, we have decided to make this week’s blog about another very naughty lad. In fact, we call him the Captain, not because he sails a ship, or because he is a defender of liberty and the American way… we call him this because a wise man once said… “You know your shit, captain.” And – well, it stuck. Richard Thornsberry is a savage. With a brush, quill… and whatever stabbing instrument he can … [Read more...]

Stranger Scribbles #6 Galemren (Wild Elves)

Galemren wild elves

Okay folks. So I am uber geeked out this week to unveil our latest and greatest addition to the Stranger family. Drum roll please – Timba style – for James Cory Webster (JCW)! We are heading deep into an emerald Jungle in the heart of Ujoa to immerse ourselves with the Lords of the Ugoma. We are very proud of this title that is a fantasy play on The Last of the Mohicans or even The Jungle Book, where we find a man out of his element raised by Galemren (Wild Elves). It is here we find our hero is not exactly human either… he is on the … [Read more...]

GALEMREN (Wild Elves) – Racial Study by Darrell May for projects: THE UNTAMED and MORKA MOA In the land of Asunda (which, if lyrically phrased, sounds like a Men at Work song) we go for cultural diversity, unlike some fantasy worlds that have been bleached down to bunny rabbits and brigands shouting “You, sir!” “Me, sir?” “Have at thee.” So, while we have our own organic take on medieval Europe, we also have our take on the nomadic tribes who have existed since the birth of man and will continue to exist as a major force for … [Read more...]

Morka Moa Grimoire

Stranger Scribbles is going to hit you now and every Monday with sketches from our various projects and genius artists. They are going to come from artists like Peter Bergting, Hyoung Man, Sheldon Mitchell, Steph Stamb and newcomer James Cory Webster to name a few. This week we are going to have a glimpse into the world of Asunda. I managed to hijack our resident gloomy Harvey Pekar Art Director’s (Darrell May) computer, and grabbed a couple of hot chick sketches— You ever wonder what a female Orc looks like? I do. Lay awake at night … [Read more...]

Stranger Scribbles #3 The Crocodile

006small

The elusive character THE CROCODILE was originally created by Darrell May. After many tweaks from Darrell and Seb (at one point he had a tail!) we see the illustrated progression by Peter Bergting. From concept to final image… and possible showdown! (It was a last minute decision to ditch the cloak feeling it was too cumbersome for the loathsome creature!) … [Read more...]
