I found some really old art that I thought I’d share! This is from around 2000, and was perhaps the first time I drew all four of these characters together. I hadn’t come up with the concept of Skin Deep yet, but an idea was brewing.

Merial, Jim, Greg, and… Mezi?
mezi is prob the old name for michelle
Old enough to vote I think it’s old enough to rent a car… I love the very anime-ness of it, that was very much the style of the earliest parts of the decade as Sailor Moon, Pokemon, Digimon and other animes gripped us all like a vice. Fascinating to see that Michelle wasn’t actually originally the character of choice for the fourth character!

The drawing apparently is old enough to be voted into the House of Representatives. ;-) (Or, in 14 of the states, be elected Governor.) The JPEG might be younger, though.
Woah dude! This is some absolute deep lore! To think you’ve been building this from the start of the millennia! Simply amazing.
Meesh had a different name originally, it seems?
I always like to see early art from artists to see how their styles have grown and or changed. I appreciate the effort you are giving to keep your site updated while you are recovering from your broken arm. I do hope it’s feeling better and the actual pain is gone and only the inconvenience remains. I’ve had other things broken than arms, but I can’t imagine just how difficult it is to be without your dominant arm. A good friend broke his dominant arm in fourth grade and he had to learn to write with his left hand. It made him rather ambidextrous after the cast was removed.
Awesome! Very anime inspired! I rember seeing an old illustration you posted here of Merial and Michelle releasing circa 2003.
