SA-weet! I'm really encouraged by the replies I got to my polls-- it really helps me to get other opinions and perspectives about my characters, na?
So I sketched these quick this weekend while brainstorming. Now it's Monday so I'm going back to working on my 10K Commotion Opening animatic plus Ninth Stage. But I can't just leave my sketchbook empty-handed after such an inspiring weekend, so I've added some more random sketches from it...

I'm kinda testing what new lettering style I want to use for it... the tenkay style looks distinctly like 10K Commotion to me, so I'm experimenting with something new for the new project. Maybe lettering like this? Maybe not... hm.
And since a few people now have asked:
Okay, I can't say any more about that story yet because #1. it's not done, #2. it'll make better sense when I've drawn the rest of the characters too and #3. The rest of 10K Commotion is going to get done this summer! RAWR, I won't rest until the Last Stage! says CLEARED! :D
thanks again to everyone for all their help and feedback :D

And since a few people now have asked:
my answers to the character questions were:
1. SHO is most nimble on a skateboard. Someone else saw it too, but he's partly inspired by a guy I was totally jonesing for in 9th grade, (even though I really shouldn't have been.)
2. IAN is most likely to be a stand up comedian, although not on purpose... I just think it's funny to watch him try to do most anything.
3. TOMO mediates everything when they fight. He's like their big brother (ironically). btw, "Tomo" is short for "Tomoya"(智也), not "Tomohiro"(智弘) like it says on the first sketch.
4. AKI writes music in his journal, and also in the margins of his notebooks, on his . He can't help making music wherever he goes. He's well known and everybody likes him, but he's not "popular" because there are a few things about him that no one can quite figure out.
5. Aki and Ian both would stand out at my school because we'd always notice guys who look like their clothes could come off easily-- XD ah ha ha, j/k... my friends aren't like that... maybe. ;)
