White Shadow sketch dump: number 16 - the one that took all week.
Hm. Interesting to see how little time I have to draw stuff during the week. Ah well, I'm still gonna keep busting these out :)
This one's continuing the process of suiting up, then explaining a few more things in better detail. There's still more stuff I need to design, such as the bracer interfaces and the HUD in the goggles, but those are for another sketch dump.
On the bracers: they're usually smooth as you see them drawn, but the surface is also a form of touch pad/screen. It's not activated through collision or bumps so there's no need to worry about that. Felicia must sweep her fingers across the surface to activate it, much like the process of unlocking an iPhone (never thought I'd reference an iPhone while talking about White Shadow).
Once active, the menus illuminate with a low-light blueish glow, and the surface areas where the buttons are raise up from the surface slightly. This is a Haptic Surface, and can be seen in this video of the Nokia Morph concept phone:

(oh look, another phone reference!)
In fact, much of the tech in that vid is probably in the bracers since the technology in the White Shadow universe is at that level. Stories set in near future = yay ^_^

I'm still working out what kind of story it is in terms of it's overall themes, but it's a scifi (soft scifi in this case) set about 20-40 years from now. I'd guess probably around 2040-2050, though I haven't actually set an exact date, just the technological themes.
It's entirely anthro with creatures of a more real-world type, so no fantasy creatures like dragons and unicorns, and the colour schemes are fairly realistic, but outside of that I can play around freely.
Felicia and Leon Ryans' relationship is a complex one as they're both on opposing sides of the law. Both of them need the help of eachother though, so both have to come to terms with it in their own ways.
As for Paul Reveres favourite ice cream flavour? No idea (dunno who he is), but I'm gonna guess strawberry :)
