New Character Designs

 Hi again. Brian Joseph Johns here. I thought I'd share this artwork with you.


This takes the characters to the next level for Shhhh! Digital Media and the Butterfly Dragon...


Alicia Westin aka Night Style


Here are Monique Defleur aka Eclipse

and

Heylyn Yates aka Ai Yuanlin Ying aka Butterfly Dragon 




There will be many more to come. You can start looking for new artwork in recently released stories while I'll update the artwork for the older stories over time and between other projects. This marks the beginning of the next phase in bringing these characters to life...

Expect some more written work on The Two Butterflies - Episode 10 this week, and possibly some new material for Night Boat...
